  • In this video, I pick up a 1938 Dodge Brothers truck from a local farm, and deliver it to the new owner at the Dubbo truck show. I also took my White 1955 tractor once I got it started, and I’ve included some photos of trucks at the show too.

      G’day Daryl thanks for watching mate, I’m glad you enjoyed it. It was a good show, lots of variety. Old, new, restored, unrestored, and lots of brands on display.

    Gday Dave, the sound brings back memories every time, looked to be a good turnout at the show and I don’t think I’ve ever seen a Dodge in that original condition before, top episode mate, cheers

      It’s a beautiful noise Matty, I love the way it just bops along all day.
      The Dubbo show was great, lots of good variety, there was plenty more that I didn’t get photos of. I might do another video just on the show.
      The Dodge was a ripper, only 46,000 miles on it from new, and with the original family until a few days ago.

    Good video son. She’s a time capsule that old girl. I was a bit concerned that she might bounce and pull the door in those straps but you answered that🤣. Some brakes and tyres you could poke some historic rent on her. Magnificent stuff

    • @oldrigsdownunder7301
      @oldrigsdownunder7301  5 місяців тому

      It’s a ripper old truck mate. The bonnet was a out of shape and the rear latches wouldn’t hold but once it rode for half an hour they pulled into shape a bit and I was able to fix those catches and remove the strap. I ended up putting a small strap through the cab and around the back, so it rode well in the end with no damage.

      G’day Kerry thanks for the comment mate. The 1955 is a pretty rare tractor, I’ve only seen a 6 or so out here. The 80s and 90s seem to pop up a bit, they must’ve sold a few of them in Australia.

      The 1955 needs a few things doing to it mate, I reckon I will give it a bit of a birthday in the next month or so and do a couple of jobs to it, get it ready for a few tractor pulls.
      It was a good show mate, lots of variety there.
      Thanks for watching 🙏🏻

    Great looking 39 Dodge Dave. Your V8 hauler Mack went well too. Funny how the 1955 knew we was all watching...8^) But like most old tractors she went after a good dose of profanity and a few more volts. Nice load for Dubbo! Some nice machines at the show, looks like a good one. Cheers from Canada.

    • @oldrigsdownunder7301

      It was a beautiful old Dodge Jeff, the new owner reckons he will try and get it running in the next couple of weeks. With a running engine and some new tyres, you could go for a drive in it.
      The old 1955 will get a bit of work done on it soon mate, that was a cry out for help I reckon 😂
      It was a great show, lots of space there and a great variety of equipment.
      Thanks for watching mate 🙏🏻

      It could well be a 36 mate, I was only going off what the original owner told me. His father picked it up in 1938 or 39, but it could’ve been sitting around for a year or so before then.

    My uncle has the last surviving 1932 International ute, can't remember the model name. He called up a bloke from the USA to sort out a price for the old girl but the yank didn't beleive even though my uncle had sent through Vin plates and the rest. So he called him a dickhead and hung up.
