A trick I learned from an old guy when I was a young guy: Old engines often had stretched timing chains so the lights often didn't jive timing marks. He would fill a glass with water then set it on the fender. He would adjust the distributor so the water in the glass would develop concentric circles from the center. That meant the engine harmonics were balanced.
This is why modern two-stage paint systems suck. You can't do that to a clear coat when it inevitably goes away. I think clear coat was invented by the paint industry to sell more paint.
So rare to find a 1958 Apache out of commission in that great of condition. Many would love to own it. Slick's family is going to be so surprised to see what great work you have done to revive it to an awesome looking daily driver.
Truck is turning really nice, kinda like the caps, sorta matches the steering wheel cap. Definitely caught the quick glance on the 61 Brookwood wagon, can't wait for that.
The fuel pump vacuum attachment is for vacuum windshield wipers and the choke should have a hard line going to the exhaust manifold. There is usually a hole in the exhaust manifold that you push the hard line into it if it has one.
Puddin' those fuel pumps usually go between manifold vacuum and the wiper motor. It can really go between manifold vacuum and anything that needs a good healthy source of vacuum. This was a parts store option to help vacuum options continue to work on tired old motors that didn't have any vacuum left. I had one on my 51 flathead with a giant cam and it definitely helped.
Awesome 58 Apache,sweet looking truck. I would take her in a heart beat. Appreciate you helping Slick's family. Big heart Puddin. Man upstairs got gold stars on your record,he knows how you roll.
These videos are so great. Pressure washing never gets old. Slick throwing it and you catching it off angle is too funny. I couldn't imaging doing all of the mechanic-ing you do - let alone the researching, filming and editing and a hilarious explanatory running commentary.
Oh yeah! A morning with Morske, and an evening with Puddin! A 2 for one day, so it don’t get much better! You did a masterful job on getting a stubborn old truck running right. It is a shame, but you see it more and more that some parts are very difficult to find for the older vehicles. Slick did his big time shine up, and when you both get ready done, she will be a sweet going to town rig, for his family to enjoy. Great job Guys! Merry Christmas 🎄🎅☃️❄️🌨️🙏🏻⛪️😊
If anyone plans on becoming a mechanic they need to watch this video. If you don't have any patients, than this might not be the career for you buddy!!! Always expect the worst because most of the time things never go right. This way you will only have yourself to blame when things go wrong!!! This is why mechanics get paid the big bucks, and rightly so, they deserve every dime they make!!! Thank you to all the hard working mechanics out there for keeping us safe!!! Thank you doctor puddin for sharing, and all your hard work without two hours of talking!!!
Do a few more of these 'radical' US-made vehicles and your mistakes will go down to zero. Practice, practice, practice! Slick and you have done a phenomenal job cleaning and buffing the truck. It looks great with the whitewalls and the white rims. Merry Christmas to all!
Besides all the humor, your ingenious workarounds, (slop out of the distributor) are some of my favorite repairs you do. Thank you. Also love when your emotions get the best of you and you don’t try to hide it.
A very creative forklift idea. Hey those hubcaps match the horn button on the steering wheel pretty well. You just have to love that starter plunger on the floor. Classic truck rescue you tube Rick good parts and info source 50's trucks GM.
I am really glad and relieved you found that set of break tools. It makes life a lot easier, especially on your knuckles. Enjoy, because I'm enjoying watching and listening to you explain everything you do. I hope your family is doing all right, take care, be safe.
I think it's so funny, out of all your trucks you put your small econ-O-box towrolla through way more abuse than anything else! lmao love the content and the truck turned out great!
That truck is Beautiful, the hub caps match the horn on the steering wheel. You guys did a fantastic job on that truck I would love to buy it . Those hub caps that you took out of the bed of the truck you should clean them all up and hang them all on a wall or even make a boarder around the top of the walls with them that would be sweet to see . But keep up the great work and God Bless you and your families. 🔥💯👍👍🙏🙏🇺🇸
And people will think those caps are factory. I have a few Oldsmobile 88's and they all came with 14" steel wheels and wire hubcaps... I swapped out the wheels from a 1994 Silhouette (15" aluminum) and everyone thinks they were a factory option!
when she's fully roadworthy she'll be a great little run around pickup. Chevy straight 6's aren't hard to come up with or to maintain, it'll give good mpg too if tuned right and you're half nice to it.
Is it bad I make my husband wait to watch Puddin's videos till I can sit and watch too?😂 We both look forward to Mondays! Merry Christmas Puddin Family!!
When doing the timing with a vacuum advance u should disconnect the vacuum line in your case the hard line when turning the distributor the vacuum advance can throw off your initial timing so you're supposed to adjust it with it disconnected anyways so it would be much easier to spend the distributor with the disconnected like you should anyways
I like it when these old trucks are left original instead of all chopped up slick really knows his way around the buffer did a really nice job this was a really good video it shows that when you're putting these engines in or tuning them up they do make mistakes keep up the good work you're doing a fantastic job and Merry Christmas to you and your family
i had a 66, half ton it was darker blue. but i sold it to my sister i shoulda kept it. that is a lovely truck i love the turquoise blue it sets it off right
Great show! The R hubcap is from a Rambler American, probably mid-60s. I had 3 of them (the cars not the hubcaps) as a teenager in the mid-70s. Mostly reclaimed will-it-runs. One of them several different times. (We traded cars a lot in my group of friends.) I think my first one cost me $25.00 at the salvage yard.
yup, its all tin, just prep and paint. throw in a stereo, speakers under the seat. go totally crazy by adding insulation and Peltier chip air conditioning? (it'd be a pretty cool retro-mod, pun intended)
It’s Time for your daily dose of Puddin y’all. Wowsers this turned out beautiful. Can’t believe it. Can’t wait to see more videos soon. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Fab On. Weld on. Keep Making. God bless.
This truck without a doubt is my top rescue Love those old Chevy pickups and this one seems to be in fantastic shape perfect candidate for a complete restoration Don't get me wrong I would drive the wheels off of it right now lol Great job you guys
Let’s hear it for FrankenCarb!🤘🏻🤘🏻

This is a great thing to know, thanks for passing it on
Man it's insane how good that paint looks after the buff job!

Modern paint is super thin... Just add an equally thin clear coat... D U N!
Best part of Monday,,,,,,, Puddin time
Tuesday* You Murican's livin in the past🤣

Hope you're having a good Monday
Prayers for your wife and her heart monitor thing.
Yeah. Hope everything is good
The man who made Monday the day to look forward too
No kidding, in all of my 31 years I have never looked forward to this day until I started watching puddin like 2 years ago
Cool to see a mostly stock project, brining around a gem.
What a beauty that truck is!! She shined up real nice.
That 58 is sweet.You two knocked it out of the park.
Truck is turning really nice, kinda like the caps, sorta matches the steering wheel cap. Definitely caught the quick glance on the 61 Brookwood wagon, can't wait for that.
I had a 235 powered 55 Belair with that carburetor. It had a tube that went down and sucked heat from the exhaust manifold. Great video as always
Puddin always shows up when I need a life brake.
Thanks buddy 👍

Buffing that old paint did the trick. Great job guys.
I can’t believe the condition of the body on that truck! She’s beautiful, and I wouldn’t change a thing, as far as looks go! Loved the video!
If he still got it throw an alternator on it
Man this thing cleaned up good!! Ole Slick's fam is gonna dig it for sure!!
I love that truck. I never wanted to own an old truck as much as I want that one. So clean. You guys did great work.
Hey Puddin, you got that Apache lookin so sweet that you got this Apache (WMAT) wantin it! ❤❤❤😊
That truly is a beautiful truck I have no doubt that Slicks family will absolutely love it
Those hubcaps would be a great decoration for the new shop!
I’d buy and daily that truck 24/7
The "amateur weekend" comment by Slick was the best. It sure cleaned up great! You've done some nice work on it. That is one beautiful truck.
Should do a show, show how Slick brings the color back in the paint. Wow that looks really nice
Hot damn she shined up nicely the center caps are not bad neither.looking better and better everytime you guys touch it.
Hope miss Puddin is ok and the rest of your family as well
Damn Puddin, you've run into every problem that you could have with that truck.
At least the radiator was still solid! Sometimes they can develop a pin hole leak in a solder joint.
When slick shows up “R Ford Ranger?” Got me busting up. Then again at the end.
Awesome 58 Apache,sweet looking truck. I would take her in a heart beat. Appreciate you helping Slick's family. Big heart Puddin. Man upstairs got gold stars on your record,he knows how you roll.
MAN what A Shine ! BRAVO ‼
That vacuum line does indeed go to the wiper motor and there should be a second line out of the wiper motor to the intake.
But I no see no vakkum motor for the windy-shield wipers. (Didn't the '58's have electrick wipers?)
Puddin that hub cap with the R came off a RAMLER from the 60dys!
@@rickn8or they came on with the switch, no motor running. Can't be
@@ryurc3033, I thought so. My '56 Chebby had electrick wipers, so...
@@rickn8or I know the 57 chevys’ could have either. Higher end cars had the electric and lower cost ones had the vacuum.
😮 Dang you guys made her pop!!!!✨✨✨✨✨
Good looking truck man, that was a nice transformation.
Slick seems like a good dude too.
Old-school Buick Riviera center caps is what you have there and nice ones at that
These videos are so great. Pressure washing never gets old. Slick throwing it and you catching it off angle is too funny. I couldn't imaging doing all of the mechanic-ing you do - let alone the researching, filming and editing and a hilarious explanatory running commentary.
Looks like a brand new truck, I like it.
You nailed it’s amazing how you make a old truck come back to life with a lot of work thanks I’m sure he will greatly appreciate it
She's lovely. Kick ass job guys!
That truck is turning out awesome! Beautiful old rig!
Really love this truck. I think I like it better without caps at all. Love that color too.

@@Robrt32 to paraphrase the opening on nearly every video on the first channel, “.....they’re just having fun. It may not be for you buddy”
Omg 😆 cleaning the water pump fittings had me rolling. smh 🤦♂️ that’s way I love this channel great content Puddin
I really like the old Chevy iron. Nice job boys.
Checking in for another fantastic puddin monday! The best part of any week! Watching from Watertown, NY

You guys did a hell of a job on that baby! She is looking good. I’d drive the hell out of her. She’s a sweet going to town rig. ❤
Thats slick as hell, them hub caps you put on match the horn EXACTY. Thats awesome
Nice job! Glad to see that GM coming along. Thanks for taking us along.

Oh yes, cant wait for the 61 wagon, the 58 Apache is looking sweet, looking forward to the oil and brake leak repair video and then the family reveal.
I think it's so funny, out of all your trucks you put your small econ-O-box towrolla through way more abuse than anything else! lmao love the content and the truck turned out great!
I've killed a Corolla. She didn't go down easy, I'll tell you that.
Nice work! She'll definitely meet the requirements of being road worthy. Thanks for sharing!

Finally something good to watch...
Beautiful guys.
Those s10 hubcaps look good on the Apache. That whole truck looks great. Very nice job. Looking forward to wagon next week!
And people will think those caps are factory.

WOW! That truck looks AMAZING! You guys did a great job!
when she's fully roadworthy she'll be a great little run around pickup.
Chevy straight 6's aren't hard to come up with or to maintain, it'll give good mpg too if tuned right and you're half nice to it.
Looks like a good 20+ years of deferred maintenance in 1 video. Nice!
Yeeeeayyyy!!! Tuesday evening! Have no fear, Puddin is here😁😁😁
Here we go with another good one!!
We hope that your wife and everything is doing OK you bring so much joy to my husband's life he thinks you are hilarious keep up the videos
Is it bad I make my husband wait to watch Puddin's videos till I can sit and watch too?😂 We both look forward to Mondays! Merry Christmas Puddin Family!!

What a heck of a difference! Great work, keep ‘em coming.

She looks and sounds great. You guys are doing a great job.
Hope all is well with your wife. Thanks for another great video.
I really would love to find one of these in such good shape.
i had a 66, half ton it was darker blue. but i sold it to my sister i shoulda kept it. that is a lovely truck i love the turquoise blue it sets it off right
I love this truck and your generosity!
I love it as a long bed sweet looking truck!!
Still the best on youtube
I love this rig. Wish we had em in Australia

From a Rambler Scrambler, Cross Country.
I love the Apache. I'd drive this every day all day. Great little quick revival. The long bed works on this body. Thanks Puddin!
Man that paint cleaned up super well. Always nice to see a classic be brought back to life, and that blue is an awesome color
You need slick on the main channel, y’all’s banter is funny as hell and it makes the second channel that much better!
I've loved this series AND this ol' truck! BTW, the hub cap came from an old self-propelled rototiller "R" - but you probably knew that.
I agree! I like it as is too!
That is a beautiful truck! Love the color! It wouldn’t take much to finish the interior! Good job!😊
yup, its all tin, just prep and paint. throw in a stereo, speakers under the seat.
go totally crazy by adding insulation and Peltier chip air conditioning?
