      I lost interest in working on cars made after 1985 unless I have to. Older cars are fun to work on.

      @@classictruckranch *Yep 1983 was a huge game changer on working on cars for me too... one wrong move with certain electronics could kill ya... I was like nup.. that was it... I prefer the older vehicles... as there really is something about them... the look of them... everytime I see any older car out on the roads ... my head turns. 🙂.*

    Now these are the videos that drew me in. I love your ranch stuff, but I can't wait to see some more of these someday. Never tire of the revival stuff and dream of road-tripping the USA in an old truck or car of some sort.
    Love it ❤

    Heres a tip for you. If you want to see if an older motor runs take a jumper wire from the positive side of battery to positive side of coil and jump the starter solenoid and as long as you have spark [you might have to adjust points or replace the condenser] and of course a spritz of fuel she'll let you know if shell run!!! Good luck thats an awesome truck!!J

    Hard to concentrate on what you’re talking about with the loud background music & need some better lighting at night. 😂

    When you have one blinker and doesn't blink check the other blinker on same side old vehicles when one goes on but the other blinker on that side is malfuctioning

      Yes, a lot of the older cars had integrated turn signal circuits.

    Run a hot wire to the distributor and cross jump the starter 🤔 if it don't crank check the module in the distributor 🤔

    the back wall of your battery box / upper left / top corner / is a 5/16 bolt hole / this is for a 6 inch ground cable so the battery will not fall out / positive battery cable will comes up behind the box next to the wall / this is factory and it looks better

    • @classictruckranch
      @classictruckranch  9 місяців тому

      Thank you Marlo. The factory cables were a bit on the thins side, but I believe you are right about the routing.
