    An Emeryville was the first truck I drove on the NJ Turnpike in 1971. My boss told me it had a scored cylinder liner, and to take it easy pulling the hill on the overpass between exits 14 and 15 because it might overheat. Long story short, it overheated and quit running, and had to be towed. That was a bad first day on the job.
    Anyway, I know batteries are not cheap but you just gotta have all the cranking amps you can get and good clean tight connections when messing around and trying to start old diesel engines. I know you guys know this. That's a nice setup you have on your truck Hank. That's a 24 volt starter on that Emeryville (Googled it). It's amazing what you can find on the internet on a smart phone. You guys would have needed 2 fully charged 12 volt truck batteries and connected in series with good tight connections to even have a chance, that is, if the engine was free enough and that starter good enough to turn it over fast enough to start.
    That Emeryville brought back lots of memories. Thanks for making the video.

Twin trucks except the 59 had single headlights and the 60 had twin lights. I had a 250 cummins. We hauled grain from the elevator in Rugby, ND to Mpls/ St paul and Duluth Mn. Slept many nights in that sleeper and to this day I love that truck. When in the service in 62 sold trucks and bought KW 100's in 64 when army service ended. John

    Putting the strap over the top of the cab and securing it at the bottom of the back of the cab would have made better use of the leverage and wouldn't have damaged the A pillar.
    The initial pull was too much downwards rather than forwards. The pull would have been better from 2-3 times further away.

    That's an old Johnson motor lined truck . You can see the sanded squares that said Johnson . Their trucks had a bar across the rear spring bolts that had a little short mudflap on it . The first tandam axel would pic up a nail or something and the little mudflap would knock it down before the next axel would hit it avoiding a flat tire .

    We used to own a 1971 IH CO4070A with a 355 cummins and it is indeed 24 Volt to Start. when you hooked up batteries you did it in parallel which increased cranking amps but not voltage. When you hook up batteries in series it increases voltage to 24 volts. One battery hook ground to negative post. other battery hook starter solenoid wire to positive post. then you run wire between two batteries from empty posts positive to negative. this is a negative ground system. Once engine starts solenoid cuts to 12 volt to truck wiring. should start on starting fluid but use sparingly. She should run

Also pretty sure the cummins engines of that time used oil bath air cleaner.

    In the 80's, I had just finished installing a slant 6 in a dart. I got everything connected, and was ready to start it. I installed the battery and tapped the battery cables onto the battery. I hooked up the remote start switch and decided it was time to start it. I hit the button and the entire top of the battery exploded, pelting my face, neck and arms with acid and plastic. Afterwards I looked at the battery and what caused the explosion was by pounding on the battery, I cracked the internal connection between the terminal and the plates, so when I hit the starter button, it arc'd and the battery exploded. I have never hammered on a battery since.

    I would restore it to factory condition & create a luxurious interior & put in a far out stereo system & moonlighting & just use it to drive up & down the road & back & keep it parked i\on that cement block & enjoy siting in it & use it also as my own Mancave on wheels & enjoy listening to my music or just sit & think. :) We shouldn't destroy these machines they have more uses off road as well.

    Apparently theres not a jack in the tools on their utility truck or enough strapping to reach all the way over the cab to reach down the back of the cab to hook underneath it to give leverage. The cab on the Emoryville was rough when they got there but was totally destroyed by the time they got it to tip up. If the truck actually was rare, these guys should not have been allowed to go near it because they did more damage than good. While the cab was rough from the beginning, it was still restorable but not when they got done. Rust can be cut out and repair panels fabricated but crushed and buckled metal is way worse to repair. I used to do restorations and when I saw the damage being done it broke my heart. I can't even watch any more of it to see if they get it running because I am sure its going to be more hackery.
