It's not everyday you find a 70 year old truck in a storage shed! *Tell me about some Rare items that you have found,* I would love to hear 😀👍
We found a 51 3 window for sale about a year ago and snatched it up quickly
I found a 99 s10 Chevy once with a Corvette back end... is that rare enough?
@@Peregrino1611 sorta..but under the category of different in a cool way..
Farm Alarm I found a 72 Lemans from California it's whole life. No rust at all and only 86,000 miles on it. I got it running again and drive almost daily.
Years age in Pennsylvania, I was off to the side of a dirt road trying to change a tire on a Blazer, I just did not have enough jack to do the job, there in the mud was an abandoned jack and tire iron, antique, but was able to use it under my jack to stabilize the foot of my jack enough to get it done. I tossed the jack in the back and cleaned it up only to find it was from a Model A Ford, some other driver who knows how long before was stuck in the exact place I was. I still have the tire iron...
makes me want to cry, dad bought one when I was 5 I'm 73 and I still remember that truck, same everything...
I'm building a model kit of a 1950 3100, - pretty much exact same thing. Wanna paint it "weathered", like an original 70yr old truck well maintained. Good to see folks keeping the old iron running!
Same here my friend :(
What a cute little kid. Nice truck. The old guy is great!
I love how the dad asked the littlest boy to climb under the truck and pull the safety strap over the axle tube. That is how you teach responsibility, respect and work ethic. They were included and they felt the connection between them. Simple but very effective. My dad did it with me and my brother. Great video and I'm keeping up with the updates. Beautiful old truck!
Thanks for the encouragement!
My Grandpa brought one! It was the first truck or car I ever drove!
I mastered it around the farm at 8 years old! I could not let it go when grandpa died! It was like one of the family! The truck is still in the family, now my grandkid is driving it! I think it's on its 3ed rebuild! Still looks and drives great! still completely stock, just the way it came with the foot starter!
That was an excellent find. Don't forget to take the guy for a ride in it as you promised....it is and will be an excellent experience for him.
like how you listened to the previous owner, who seemed satisfied, that this beauty was in good hands..and the start of memories for Your Family..amen..you got your priorities right!
The little guy has a lot of awareness of how things work. Follows instructions well too!
I learned to drive in a Blue 1948, my grandfathers farm truck. Thanks for sharing and the memories.
I bought a '53 Chevy 5-window in Alabama in 1988, drove it home to Michigan, fixed it up, hasn't been out of my garage since 1991.
This wonderful old truck and I were both built in 1949. What a find! I know I’m speaking for a lot of folks when I say l’m glad to see it finally sold to someone who’ll treat it with respect.
I cried watching this video because my dad had one like this.. And when I saw your son go underneath the truck to the help you tie it down it remind me of when I used to help my dad with his truck. Thanks for the video!!!
My first pickup was a 1951 Chevy which I bought in 1963 for $300. Watching this video brought back many fond memoirs. Like your trucks previous owner, I too am 75.
Great parents , your babies will go far in life, was so lovely to see how dad and the boys interacted
LOVE the earlier models,but settled on a 58 Panel,and love the feeling of driving it.NO modern vehicle comes close to the VIBE
You are so right, I too enjoy driving my old truck
Wish I still had my 54 F100 panel, flat 6, 3 on tree, 17" narrow tires, astronomical mileage with that 1 barrel. Sold it after I drove it for 17 years just like it was, for nearly 4 times what I paid for it... wish I still had it!
My brother just rescued a 1938 Farmall tractor and hauled it back to California from Missouri. And it runs.
You got a find there. It was meant for you. Henry good job helping dad. Can’t wait to see your progress fixing it up
That is a long way for a tractor! Henry says Thanks!
I have a 1950 5 window purchased from the son of the original owner. Great video.
Just like the old man clearly remembered his Father bringing the truck home 70 years ago, your boys certainly will too. Great video.
Glad you are preserving History, Your kids will appreciate it also.
Beautiful! I hope you can get back and give him that ride in the back of the truck, I think that would mean the world to him and the memories of long ago when he was a boy!. Great video
unfortunately...riding in the back of a pickup truck is now illegal...no seat belts back there...sad...safer but sad
@@woodsmn8047 we couldn't eat ice cream unless we ate it in the back of the truck
i thinks its awesome your rescued that old girl cant wait to see what she looks like when your finished
Best of luck to you and your family I really appreciated seeing your little boy there what a beautiful memory that’s going to be when he gets older
Thanks Terrence. Yes it will be a great memory for him!
Love this truck not only because it was manufactured the tear I was born but I've always loved the 5 window trucks.
Best part, the little boy and his thumbs up!
wow what an awesome find
I'm very happy for you, and your boy will have great memories of you and the old truck that you bought from another older man with his memories it brings tears to my eyes. Good job and may God bless you all.
Thank you so much. Glad you enjoyed this. May the Heavenly Father bless you too.
What an awesome find! So cool that it was owned by one family this entire time!
My husband and i do like to dig through old tools and junk! You never know what you’re going to find!
Thanks Steph. Yeah I was excited that it was a *One Family Truck*
@@FarmAlarm Means it was taken care of! 😎👍❤
I found an original 1946 Chevy pickup behind a friend's barn and trades a 56 Chevy 2 dr sedan for it. Towed it home cleaned the points put a gas can on the hood. Tapped lose a leaking float hot wired the coil a few of towing and it ran like a Swiss watch just sold it a few years ago. Got it in 1971. STILL ran sweet
Looking forward to see it running and the trip back to the old guys ride it it again
That’s fantastic with your little boy helping his Daddy!! You are making memories and he won’t forget that!!
Blessings on your find there!!
That Little Guy that threw that strap around that axle tube is gunna be a great Mechanic!!!!He reminds me of my Boy who is 20yrs old now and he is quite the Yong man!! He is my Apprentice now and I am soooo Proud of him...we ben workin old junk since he was as young as your boy and I would not take a Million Dollars for the times weve had together!I'm a welder of 28+yrs and Malachi is Followin Dad to be the Best of the Best!God Bless Ya'll...
I am 81, my first truck was a 1950 just like that only a lighter green. It was a runner, I loved that truck. Lots os luck. That tailgate is in real nice shape from the looks of it.
That is awesome Frank. Thanks for sharing. Did most tailgates get tore up?
When I was a junior in high school in 1977, there was a senior whose dad owned the local Chevrolet dealership, and he had a 49 five-window that he drove to school. I thought it was the most beautiful truck I've ever seen, and I've wanted one ever since. Maybe someday.
Glad to see see that you are going to restore it. Best wishes in your effort. Just out of high school in 1951, I went to work for Mannerud-Huntington Fuel Co in Eugene, Oregon. While drivers had to put up with old clunkers, mostly pre-war, two 1949 or 1950 Chevrolet 5-window trucks sat in the garage--one blue and the other green. Finally, management took them to Portland and had them fitted with custom made beds to haul sawdust and wood chips. My turn finally came to drive the green one to haul sawdust from a lumber mill to the Eugene Power and Electric and to Weyerhaeuser. I thought I had arrived. So every time I see one of those trucks I think back to that period just before entering the army. Wayne Warner, Springfield, MO.
That's an awesome memory. Thanks for sharing Wayne.
That is ABSOLUTELY the BEST, (safest), way to load your trailer without a winch. NICE SCORE!! I've been restoring MY dad's 49 Dodge P/U for almost 5 years. He's 86 and still going pretty strong. I hope to be able to give him a ride next spring. You've discovered as well as I have, it's HARD to convince many 'old timers' to let go of family heirlooms. I don't think I'll ever find the nerve to tell my Dad I put a Buick 215 engine in it. ....LOL. Best of success.~~Eli.
I stayed till the end great find and great that your kids got involved in picking it up, that has so much family value, and they will remember this event for ever.
Sweeeet...my dad had one when I was a kid in the 60's....called her, "Old Blue". I've always wanted one. 💕
Nothing like an old work truck and giving it TLC and back in service. Especially the 49-53 Chevys.
OMG that Chevy brings back memories of my youth on the farm in the 50's
The good old days 👍😀
@@FarmAlarm When I was a kid, used to dream about living on a farm.... never happened. But I dreamt about it.
Very nice find. Had some good help there little man was as excited as you were.
👍
Wow such a Enjoyable video ..Thanks for Sharing it..MEMORIES are worth more than any amount of money 👍 I enjoyed watching the old gentleman talking bout in the back bed with his brother .👍👍
I own a 53 3100 ice cream truck bought new by my father, everything still works after 59 years of service!
That's awesome!
I love these kind of stories 👍👍👍
Great find and a wonderful story.
well used but not abused - then cleaned/degreased and put in to quality dry storage. that's a restorer's dream. good luck!
Wow! I have a 48 R moline that was my grandfathers and a 53 5 window, all original with 49700 miles on it. I really enjoy them both. Thanks for letting me know there are people like me that still appreciate them.
What a find...the history is what really makes it special.
Thanks. I really enjoyed hearing his story.
You found a piece of treasure and you are doing exactly what I would do keeping all original as possible even the paint color boy what I would give to own something like that after war war two definitely a classic. Hopefully the rust damage is at.a minimum.Thanks for showing it to the UA-cam viewers.😊
It is great whenever these beautiful machines are freed from storage and put back on the road where they belong and for us to enjoy. Good job.
My first truck was a 1952 chevy 3100! Almost identical to this one! I bought it when I was 15! I paid 200 dollars for it! It had a blown engine that I replaced with a newer one ! I sold it in 1975 when we moved off the farm!
What a great find.!
Just found this video. That truck looks amazing. Love that front end. Hope your boys enjoy this memory for a long time.
I had a ‘53 3100 five window short bed from ‘06 to ‘18. Lots of repurposed parts available for these. You’ll have a lot of fun and spend a lot of $$
What a beaut. ❤️. What homesteader couldn’t see their family farm name on the side. Lucky.
😀👍👍👍 thanks so much Cassity
How cool. Get them kids as involved as you can!! Love seeing how into it they where when picking it up!
The little guy was the star of the show !!! I own a '52 Panel , I had a no good mechanic that left my truck in a storage shed & neglected to pay the rent , I called the storage place just in time before they auctioned my Baby off , can you imagine paying a few dollars for the shed and finding my Baby in there ???? I Still get sick to my guts just THINKING about it !!!! John
I can relate to this video so much. Np.1 it's a 49' Chevy. No. 2 it looks like a family project so everybody is included. No. 3 the wife was along and was smiling as big as Dad. I'd love to see this truck when completed as I have restored several old Chevies and cannot get enough of them.
Thanks Bill. Its definitely a family project. We all have been enjoying riding in the old truck. We have already put over 1000 miles on it. Thanks for the comment! 😀👍👍
at 17:30 when the cab door opened i could almost smell that old interior, nothing else smells quite like it
Great find can't wait to see it restored. This shows they are still out there you just have to keep looking.
Thanks. They sure are around. But most folks just dont wanna sell them
@@FarmAlarm One would think they would want to have someone preserve them, and get some use out of them, rather than let them sit and rot...🙄
What a great find
This was the first vehicle I ever drove, even the same color. I was about 8 years old and my dad put it in granny gear and I guided it around the hay meadow while my brother and him put hay bales on it. Ours was a '48. There's a crank under the seat likely.
That old truck reminds me of the one in the original "Night Of The Living Dead". Nice old Chevy five-window cab truck.
OMG, that truck is Pristine! That seat is Great condition. The spring on the glove box even works😃. What a Find!👍😉
AWSOME FIND 👍 also a grate little helper 😊 should get a pair of farmer.jeans for.that.little dude 😇 good luck ..I'll be watching ..
WOW so lucky it's in great shape to👍👍💯
And I bet his boys are thinking there dad just bought an old truck not knowing they will remember this day the rest of their lives.
that is a 7 window chevy. beautiful find. enjoy
Your son running around in his muck boots is just as priceless as you finding the 49!!
I love your iconic garage find Chevy pickup truck. My son and I just found and bought a ‘54 GMC 100 pickup this past summer. Looks mostly the same as yours, dust and all. We are midway through the (original only) restoration of this truck. It’s a pleasure to work on, being that there’s no computer to get in the way. We loved your video and wish you luck and success in getting her back on the road.
Ken and Kyle, Lubbock, Tx.
The boys learning that work is fun and rewarding. Your young one was probably about the same age as the gentleman was when his dad brought that beauty home. Great vid,. Thanks.
Holy Smokes! Does this ever bring Me back Memories as was same as My Dad's first truck when i was a little boy, but still remember it. only difference was that My Dad's truck was a 1952 GMC, but same style interior. the second I saw that kick starter & yes I do remember the 6 volt Battery. that He used to bring in the House overnight for the Winter seasons due to the Cold weather up here in Canada. What a treasure in seeing this.
I'm always here till the end... I loved them old trucks!!! As a kid I figured that all older Chevy pick-ups were painted green... LOL...
Thanks Bobby! Man, Green is my LEAST FAVORITE color for a truck LOL😆. But I like the old patina, so it will have to do. Thanks for watching Bobby.
@@FarmAlarm my 54 f100 panel was bodacious green... it was that way for 17yrs. I drive it like I found it ... like you not my favorite...
Awesome find!!
Wow! I have an original 5 window 53 with 47,000 miles. It runs like a sewing machine. I also have a 48 R moline just like the one at the beginning. I feel at home in this video.
I had a '49 5-window as my daily driver in about 1973. Floor shift with a "granny" gear. It also had a "split" exhaust manifold (from JC Whitney I believe) with dual glass packs. Sounded wonderful! One of the many vehicles I wish I'd been smart enough to keep.
Donnie you just made their day. Can wait to ride in the back with ya.
Thanks for posting your video. I have my eye on one as well. The will not give it up.
That’s a heck of a great find with the truck in pretty good shape
Awesome truck...I have a 1938 Chevy business coupe there's nothing that compares to an old Chevy ..
your kids won me as new subscriber watching them helping you, plus that pick up brings me very nice memories also. I'm gonna grab some snacks and watch you guys restore or rebuild or bring back to life, I'm from a small place in Baja Mexico fantastic find to work with.
Kudos for getting your lil guy in on the effort.
I’m amazed when he realises that it can be hand cranked started! All cars when I grew up could be started that way.
what great dad you are. letting the boy help. bringing him up right
We have one too. 1953 3100 Chev. Restored!!
What a find and what a story Congratulations do it justice
Thanks Texan!
Very interesting i love Chevrolet cars and trucks hope to see it running 👍👍👍👍
The old Blue flame Engine dip and sling oil system and you can shim the bearings poured, and babbitt connecting rod bearings was the first engine I did for my dad 1952 I was ten years old he walked me through every step.
As I grew in the trade, I remember the old mechanics, and they taught you the hard way and the EZ way pulling clutches the old Buick torq tubes the old fluid drive Chrysler Fords sludge under the intake manifold, Sorry it's just the old buzzard reminiscing. thank you good videos.
@@arthurfiorillo8591 Love it. That's what preserves REAL history!😎👍🙏
That brought back a lot of memories of old cars. I was born in 51. We had a family friend who always drove older vehicles. I remember my parents telling me they were coming over to show us their new car. I was probably 5 or 6 and their new car was a 1951 chevy. The engine compartment, the crank hole, everything in it looked just like your "new" truck. I'm glad you want to keep it original, I love looking at old equipment and look at the technology they used to make things happen. I'll be watching!
Talk about a time capsule... The gauges, interior, and engine bay look pristine. Like it was driven yesterday. Wow. Awesome find! Thanks for sharing!
You're doing right with those kids. Keep it up.
i had a '54 and a '58 they were both good trucks. the '54 had the 3 on the tree and the '58 had a 4 on the floor and a fifth under the seat ;)
my dad had a 51 just like that as a work truck. some of my earliest memories. i was so impressed by pickups that i got myself a 71 c10 in high school and kept it running strong for 6 years.
This truck got a great past! And it's beautiful just as it is! Congratulations on the buy.
Perfect little helper👍👍👍 good luck with that sweet truck
So fatherly to have your sons work with you. Would love to meet great people like you all.
Thanks, I really appreciate that! 👍
@@FarmAlarm You get along great with your kids! Trust means alot. I envy that. My dad, I love him, was a nazi. No tolerance. You got it going on...😎👍❤❤❤
Wonderful Video. The look in your boys face after wrapping that strap over the frame is priceless. I learned to drive in my dad's 48 Chevy pickup which is long gone.
Thanks for the "revisit" to my youth......
Great find. I love how you get your kids involved in the work. They can grow up knowing they can do anything. I'm a city kid and I'm still learning. All the best to yours!
That is a great old feller.
I have my grandfather’s ‘48 five window. Your vids are helping inspire me to get it back on the road.
WOW you found a jewel! Great family...
