Just so happen y'all popped up an I really like what I had to see, with the Viking, good bones never lose the style, that is the real blessing to see them still in there glory
I started watching right around the time you guys brought Homer in the woods. He is by far my favorite and I wish you would pull him in and give him a new clutch and going trough. Which! Your big "barn" garage and The Last Chance Garage is almost there! YAY!!! -Nelson Farrar
27:18 Congratulations on the new channel. Rick my ultimate Favorite Truck is Homer hands down, and Lest We Not Forget About Buasfrog as My second Favorite Truck. Rick, I have been watching you for several year's, even Before The Classic Truck Rescue, back when you were Helping young men about mechanics, yeah I'm an Old Goat, and I don't say much, but I will give a Good Word when it's due. Keep Doing What You've Been Doing. It is 7:27 A.M. and I'm still awake, But I'm doing something I Love to do, I'm watching My Favorite Truck doing His Work, again, I saw it on Classic Truck Rescue, and I get to see Homer doing His First Rescue Again. YAAAAAAAYYYYYYYY.
Thanks Michael.👍You poor thing. You've suffered through a lot of very unprofessional camera work, poor video editing and seen us make many a mistake....we're getting there though. Thanks for coming along with us for the ride.
Excellent video Classic Truck Ranch Rick :) , Jamie :) on Homer Red Tow Truck should get light flick switch in cab in tow bar part with strong fog lights clear one so see at night or bad weather conditions tow up to on back bumper and help out when hook up then flick switch when driveing too! Also on tow cables on spool use 5/8 wire tow type and soak in Desiel fuel when not use so be flexible and not snap it lube up all put pail then reel up before go to use or before drive on need to! Do every 3 months save money but new cable in future and Desiel fuel give strong strength to you be amazing too results Rick and if don't want use Desiel fuel you do 80w90 differential fluid in pail too instead! Hopefully like my tips to again and also Rick another be usefull get 2 batteries 12 volt Negative ground ones to Homer too use Big batteries 850 or higher Cold Cranking Amps with 90 to 210 Reserve Amps ones if get ones like Dodge use in Cummings Desiel motor be excellent to because 1000 Cold Cranking Amps and 150 to 300 or higher Reserve Amps to ! Yes that river sure up high Rick you should get good condition supply of well water and in Summer Season Weather going swimming in Lol !

P out Rick and Jamie and I’ll be looking forward to the next exciting adventure!!!!
*Rick hauls out Homer and gets Homer going.... to go on a long drive to then haul out Kermit... and so the long haul continues until all get back home on the range oops ranch 🙂nz*
If It were Me, I would fine a Large wheel Lift. Big Truck style The kind that can pickup Box trucks, That wrecker is Big enough, I have seen them sell for less than 1000 bucks, That would bring it into the 21 century
love what your are doing! but man it gets hard to watch due to video quality. i understand quality cost money but I would put that on your list of ways in improve your channel if you have not already. keep on rescuing!
This is a new channel we started so we could lay everything out in correct chronological order. We are also updating all of the videos and making them more streamlined. You can go check out our progress on Classic Truck Rescue Joseph. I'm glad you stopped by again, Thank you, but I'm not going to individually update people in the comments section because they didn't watch for a while. That's why I make videos of what's going on out here.
You watched this video previously on Classic Truck Rescue. This is our new Channel, "Classic Truck Ranch". We had a lot of requests to put our 700-plus videos in chronological order. Classic Truck Rescue has been on the air for well over 10-years and a LOT of new Viewers were confused about why we moved to the new property, when we moved, etc. We took the opportunity to start an all new channel with every episode in the proper order, more accurate descriptions of the content, streamlined episodes and other features to make it a better viewing experience.
I am really happy for you guys very much
Thank you Patrick.

We're getting there my Friend. Thanks again.
That was a good-looking little Toyota you went by when you were pulling out of the driveway
It was pretty clean, wasn't it?
The weather reminds me of when I spent the early and mid 80s in Bangor sub base, If it ain't raining- it's gonna! Lol
Yes, but the Spring and Summer weather here make it all worth it.
Nice 👍👍👍
Thanks for another visit.
Tech tip, dribble a little oil on that cable from time to time. The 1/2" stuff.
Will do. A couple people have said that. Thank you.
The good old days 😊
Thanks for the visit Sir.
It has been a long time since I saw your post here.
Thanks for stopping by Ronnie.
You have to get Homer’s light working on top👍🏼
It works, I just forgot to turn it on. I agree though, I should've turned it on while I was backing off the highway.

Sounds like Homer needs the carburetor rebuilt and a tune up.
I actually DID need a carb rebuild at that time. Good ear.
hi rick and jamie fron classic truck rescue classie truck ranch from randy h welch
Hi Randy. Welcome aboard the New Channel.
Nice to get additional "history" of your trucks & equipment. Good stuff!
More to come! Thanks Ken.
Iiucfch@@classictruckranch
I meant Bullfrog not Buasfrog. I'm awake but my fingers seem to be asleep.
I know about the sleepy finger moments. All good. Thank you for watching and commenting.
Have you considered mounting a pulley on your trailer, to accommodate the wrecker cable, to winch vehicles onto the trailer?
No I haven't, but that is a very good idea. Thanks.
*Rick hauls out Homer and gets Homer going.... to go on a long drive to then haul out Kermit... and so the long haul continues until all get back home on the range oops ranch 🙂nz*
Thanks for coming along for the ride with us again.
Awesome wrecker, but I didn't see any brake lights or any lighting for that matter.
The lights for the trailer shorted out the wrecker's tail lights and we didn't notice it until we got the load to the property. Good eye.
@@classictruckranch awesome trucks!
Great channel
Thanks Robert.

A wheel lift would be awesome, but the only ones I have seen locally were pretty expensive. Thanks for watching Brian.

Sorry about that
👍🤠

I like the wood.

Are you moving?
Did you ever get that pole barn done?

Why is the wife driving ?
Because she wants to. I try to let her do things she wants to do.
Homer says that’s easy
Homer's pretty tough. Thanks Charles.
