Rick Péwé and I started doing the “will it run?” thing in about 1996. We’d go to a guy who had a dead vehicle, get it running in his driveway, and then road trip it on a huge adventure where we had to four-wheel along the way. We called it Dirt Every Day, or a DED Tour.

In this video, we’re doing it in Rick’s own driveway, wrenching on the virtually stock 1941 Ford GPW that we drove from Phoenix to Alaska 20 years ago. This time, we’re headed from Phoenix to Key West—but the “new” engine developed a brutal rod knock. So we did whatever it took to get us on the road, and that meant installing an engine that had not run in 36 years!

This video is Part 1 of this particular debacle. Look for Part 2 with the epic road trip!—D/F
