We had one of these old Dodge trucks on the farm. It was a flatbed and had a four on the floor with dual low. We could put it in the lowest gear and send it across the hayfield with no driver while we tossed the bales on the truck bed. That old truck would run when our other vehicles crapped out. Drove it to high school in town several times, but had to park on a slope because of our perpetual low battery. Roll down the slope and pop the clutch and you were running. Vehicles today are too complicated.
I've never understood why people are reluctant to subscribe. People are harder to figure out than old trucks, and no mistake. Well done, gentlemen. Most enjoyable. 🇬🇧👍
Oh, boy! Your video series more than deserves at least a 3rd part. Unlike Hollywood with their endless sequels and pointless remakes, the story YOU are telling demands a happy ending! Hopefully, a water pump and some used tires can be found to get this little truck driving on the road again! I know it's VERY hard for you two to stand out in the Arizona sun and work on this; I did plenty of work out in Glendale and can relate to Arizona sun, that's for sure. I appreciate the EXCELLENT lighting once again; your lighting and camera angles make me WANT to really take a good, close look at what you're doing. Mahalo for another superb video about perseverance. Aloha and take care.
remember back in the day in the 60s my Grandfather used to reuse those copper head gaskets and he would always use heavy grease a lite coat on both side of them before he would re install them . And they never leaked ......he was a farmer and did all his fixes and builds himself I just got a Austin A40 1953 Somerset barn find running after it sat in the back of a barn since 1965 when the owners Dad parked it after the mother died of breast cancer in 1966....the son said nobody ever did see if it would run and it sat under a canvas cover . It runs real good and will soon be back on the road . Still had the 1965 plates on it
You did It!! Sounds great. My first car was a 1947 Plymouth club coupe and the motor looked just like that one. It had a rod knock so we dropped the pan and took a couple of shims out of each rod cap. It ran and drove great. Love them Mopars.
That starter should did take a beating! Glad that you and your dad got it running. Can't wait to see more on this truck. Check out Restored for a door on the International. They have one that they just got running. They might be willing to part with it.
I did a old Chevy not long ago had no compression at all that car fought back for 3 days but once I got it running it had great compression it's a daily driver now
@arlie3334:• Thank you. The most basics problem. Is the humidity that has taken it's toll on all of the engine's running part. Together with the rusted surface areas. Lkie the piston rings the sleeves themselves. But as soon as those areas have absorbed the oil. That's when the engine begins to start after 20 or 30 years without lubrication. Thanks again for your comment. It also goes to show. We have to be patient with these old parked dinasours slowly rusting away. Now you have a daily driver. Who knew it would turn out like it did for you. 👍👍.
Runs like a sewing machine. Well I was the best compliment those old boys used to give guys like my dad he would get their Flathead 6 is an dates running for them. You got paid really well. A burrito I'm sure tasted really good. The satisfaction of resurrecting this old Dodge from the dead. Also I believe his name is Joe he gave you a hug and he's wiping his eyes. That's a great payday. I hope that you don't mind me taking the liberty of me playing cheerleader on my other comment encouraging people to subscribe. I've done for other channels a couple of times in the past. Each comment was worded differently and they helped. But if you think it's too much and over-the-top and isn't to your liking just take it off no harm no foul
It's like his Dad said,,the spark plugs,,if they would've be n new,,different story or tweak the carburator,,don't expect miracles,,bring the required items
What’s really great if you guys didn’t add any new parts to that. So what’s next, maybe throwing the new water pump in? Check on the brakes and see if you can’t get it to drive?. Great job!
That was the redemption the truck deserved. Sure put up a fight though. Lol funny how things straighten out & fly right once the big hammer is pulled out

Mr. B. Here ! You guys have true grit ! Best of luck ! 😊😮😊😮
Cool revived old truck, after a few more replacements, she just might be able to go for a drive! Congats to you and your father, great team! 👏
So glad you guys got that old truck started.
Man, I love seeing these old beauties come back to life!
Next time you can try squirting some engine oil in the cylinders, that will help a lot with compression. I've done that a few times
Probably the hardest resurrection I've seen you guys do yet. Great work, keep the amazing vids coming!
Thanks Roman we will
Was on the edge of my seat saying out loud "go baby, GO!!" 😅 Love the channel guys! ✌️
That old Dodge is a runner. It does sound good men. Can’t wait to see where you take this. A great Video. Thank you for sharing! ❤️💯
This starter is a trooper. Love your videos. Greetings from Germany.
That starter is legend. I cannot believe it survived all of that! Especially at 12V!
It sure took a beating

You blessed old man Joe's heart. I love it! Good work and great vid guys.
Never give up love it really like that old truck 👍👍👍
The happiness from Dave is what makes it worth the blood and sweat making it run. 🤘🏻 great work guys!
Great work, guys! I want to see more of this truck.

Lovely old truck.
Surprised you didn't take the carb home the first time and rebuild it.
You guys did an amazing job getting that old beast running. Keep up the good work!
Appreciate that thanks
Great to see you two back on the truck. It’s a good one Thanks from. Sc.
Awesome work guys. Back on the beautiful truck. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friends. Fab On. Weld On. Keep Making. God Bless.
Would love to see you get it to where you can drive it.
Good job getting it going. I'm amazed that the Heat riser valve is free. These usually stick and cause the carb to be heated all the time.
Good eye 👁️
Awesome content as always Travis & Rick🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Love the video another great job bringing the old truck back to life!.....👏 👍 👌 🙌 😀 💪 😍! !
Thank you for watching
You did It!! Sounds great. My first car was a 1947 Plymouth club coupe and the motor looked just like that one. It had a rod knock so we dropped the pan and took a couple of shims out of each rod cap. It ran and drove great. Love them Mopars.
Really love these videos
Good job getting it going
Thanks dale 💪🏼
Happy to see y’all got that Ole Girl running. Cheers to y’all from Jerome down in Florida🍻
Ya'll sure did make Joe happy !!!! Good job !
Great job gentlemen. I surprised the started held up.
Time to get it back on the road!
That's amazing with the original parts even..wow..great job
What a beautiful piece of machinery. And history. I wish somebody else I would build a time machine
Yes persistants pays off.
I love what you do. I learnt and still do the tricks ..
She sounds great! I bet it would move fairly easily too! Nice work.
Congrats guys! Can't wait to see what's next, a road trip back home?
We had a 49 dodge truck identical ! Ours had fluid drive, you couldn’t kill that old truck for anything!
I know about the old dodge flat sixes they are awesome
Good.job👍👍👍👏👏👏👏😁😁😁😄cool truck ❤
Awesome video! Good job, guys!
Thank you for watching
@@theetravisb I also subscribed. Good luck with your new projects!
Good job guys that was awesome
What an awesome truck and duo. Love the Dodges
gets me inspired to get my started-thanks
Is a sweet sounding truck.
Lordy she put up a fight. Good job fellas.
Hopefully the owner doesn't sell the old thing after you got it running again.
add a sqirt of oil into each cyl and boost compresion plus avoids dry start,every time you pour gas you wash the oil from your cyl
Makes sense. Good tip. Good observation 👍. Your way of doing it. It would alot take less time to start the engine.👍👍
Or just premix the gas
From the desert to the road, awesome!
That starter should did take a beating! Glad that you and your dad got it running. Can't wait to see more on this truck. Check out Restored for a door on the International. They have one that they just got running. They might be willing to part with it.
Great job guys 👍🇺🇸
Thank you!
Good Job! It was fun to watch. Thanks
Nice to hear the old girl run. Beautiful truck.
You guys need to own that!
Great work by the way!
Thank you 💪🏼💪🏼
great videos, really enjoying watching them 👍
That thing is awesome! Nice work guys 👍
I enjoyed the full minute and a half of looking at your shoulder while listening to an impact driver.
Awesome job once again fellas!!
Thank you !
What??? No scorpions in this one???LOL
Enjoyed the video. Those old Dodge flatties are almost bullet proof!
That battery is a champ
Interstate for the win.
@@theetravisb I believe it

Persistence pays off!
Your dad sounds like a slightly less gruff Sam Elliot.
Runs pretty good once it ran
Very good , Fantastic ....

This is a cool truck
Congratulations, I knew you could do it.
New subscriber. What happens to most of these vehicles after you get them running?
Well done!
Ready for a resto project now.
Thanks for another “Brother “
