Nice to see old friends reconnecting and doing something they enjoy.
Awesome video of three friends getting together and fixing this dump truck to run again. Keep the videos coming!
You guys show how nice you guys are when around your friends. It is so nice to see treat one an another with respect and love. Keep shinning guys it doesn't go unnoticed.
That's a very nice comment Steve. Thank you.
so cool to see you guys at it again, when people ask me why I learned how to work on cars it was simple, we were poor and my dad had tools and he would say , you can use my tools now go buy a chiltons manual and fix it yourself.
So true. That is exactly how things were. If you didn't fix it, you walked.
i know what you mean.
Nice to “Rich” still playing with his buddies. Thanks for sharing with us.👍👍🇨🇦
You're welcome Dan. Thanks for watching!
i enjoy your shows, I've have a 69gtx 440 im gonna get it running this year its been sitting for years. Thank you for the fun and info, keep up the great work.
fantastic to see mates still having fun working on cars trucks . all captured by a beautiful wife
Thanks very much!
Some friendships last a lifetime. This was great, guys! Warms the heart....
These will last a lifetime. It doesn't happen often, so I am truly fortunate.
Y'all working with friends is a hoot. That old dump needs to be taken back to that beautiful metallic green. Y'all are so awesome. Keep doing your thing and reviving these old vehicles that just need a little love. God bless you and Richard, Christina.
Thank you very much Matt! God bless.
Love it.
I think that olive metallic was a popular Chevelle color.
Great to see another video with old friends working together. The way things are today those times are few I hope all the guys can have many more years of friendship
True, these opportunities don't come around often. I am super appreciative we were able to do this. Thanks for the support!
Automotive archeology. That would make a nice flatbed. Cool old rig. Thanks for taking us along for the ride.😊
You're welcome!
Great to see friends still being friends after all those years it was nice that the truck was a easy start great job to all the guys and Christina
Thanks very much Dale. Much appreciated!
It is incredible to see all of you guys get together and hang out. It has been awesome to watch. Ty for sharing this adventure with all of us. Have a glorious weekend 😎.
You're welcome my friend. I certainly will miss working with these guys.
@whattherust I do understand that. We get so busy with life that we forget to live. Have a glorious weekend, both of you.
Great video once again, good friends are priceless and nice to watch, we need to smile more in these not so great times.😀👍🇬🇧🇺🇸
Glad you enjoyed it Antony.
Excellent video Christine :) , Richard :) , Brain :) , Shawn :) also nice teamwork you guys do in videos too and nice on lots You Tube videos do too! Also I watch Low Buck Garage plus Glenn one does videos got me surprised recently of 1964 Oshkosh Dump & Snow Plow truck why I like surprised was because in my home area North West of Port Hope Ontario Canada 🇨🇦 in country area at Roads & Works Department Highways do roads also repairs plus Snow Plow also sand with salt all year around! In 1951 the company of Muncipality of Hope Township in small village of Canton it 75 miles east of Toronto Ontario Canada 🇨🇦! They bought out taxes papers a 1951 Oshkosh 5 ton single axles 4×4 with a Desiel Cummins 6 cylinders 270 Cubic Inches size with Turbo , 48 of 4 12 batteries voltage Negative ground , 9 speed Manual transmission , 390 rear end gears , daul 350 gallon fuel tanks square types, had one stack on right side behind cab front box dump it was loud to hear for miles even when Garage plus Turbo to sound like Airplane of single engine one small ones! Blade on it was cool one from Locomotive Train and right side wing blade too ! When heard going biggest whining but push snow excellent and powerful to also remember my late great uncle's Jack & Leo , Lloyd stories running it plus said heater not good also Windshield Wipers vaccum types plus Hydraulic & Air types in truck very rare for years too there were made in then plus Germany made! To bad Garage caught fire in 1995 of winter season burn new Garage building down plus trucks and machinery too! So had replaced everything new again and 2005 bought brand new Oshkosh truck like army truck too and super truck too! Yes Richard also me lots my families & family enjoys old school technology too and do in crew on repairs too anytime!
This reminds me of the movie The Country Bears! The bands are back together 😅, great job. Too bad not every car was this easy.
It was an easy one for sure. The next one we do isn't!
Another great video. Guess you old friends had more fun than expected. One old Chevy wasn't enough. That's awesome. So glad you guys have the opportunity to get together and share some time spinning wrenches like the old days. I shared these videos with an old friend of mine that used to help me fix my Chevelle years ago. I was older, had the license and the know-how, he was The Apprentice at the time.
Your videos spurred great conversations between us of the old days. You probably have another subscriber too.
Thanks again Richard and Christina.
The is great to hear Gary! We are glad this brought back good memories. By the way, got the AC working in the truck simply by disconnecting the heater host to the aftermarket unit.
ANOTHER ONE IN THE BOOKS
Good old gen 1 small block Chevy! They can sit for years than fire up like they were just parked yesterday!
Right on! This one surprised us all. We did do some prep, like cleaning the plugs and such. but to think that it started right up and idled is crazy.
@whattherust Yes sir. Didn't mean to take anything away from your work, which is always awesome. Keep it up, my friend. Always look forward to your vids!
You guys did a great job. My Dad had a 1970 Chevrolet C/50 Stake Body. A Kelly Green Color. Thank you. This video bought back a lot of memories. Great job!
We are happy it brought you good memories Michael!
Good to see you be able to get together with old friends.❤
Thanks. Yes , will miss working with them.Who knows when we will get together again? Probably years from now.
THE HANDLE WITH THE KNOB IS FOR THE PUMP! You have to engage the pto!
Enjoyed the video, nice to see the guys get back together doing things they used to do years ago, the time passes so quickly. I am 59 and you still think the things you used to do were a few years ago but unfortunately they were many years ago! Carry on with the good video's guy's 😊
Thanks Andy. It is true. It doesn't seem like 40 years, but I am lucky the guys are still doing well.
Great video! I live in the next town over, awesome getting together with buddies and working on an old Chevy!
Thanks Steve!
Very cool truck, great vid!!! 👍👍
Thanks man!
@@whattherust 👍👍
THANK YOU GUYS ,, AND CHRISTINA.. GREAT VIDEO!! TO LEARN FROM ITS A GREAT OLD TRUCK....LOVE SEEING IT MOVING BUT RICHARD STOP!!!! HA! MY SON WANTS TO SEE THE BACK DUMPTER MOVE. WE NEED TO SEE PART TWO...
Glad you and your son liked it Ronald!
That truck would be my daily driver to the food market.
if I had it I would drive it daily too!
Hi Richard and Christina my name is Michael Nice truck runs great I've been watching your videos and they are really good while you two travel around reviving these old vehicles getting them to live again while in some situations are and some can be made into roadworthy vehicles while others would be better off as rusting road relics of art the reason I'm reaching out to you is because I have an interest in the Fiat Lancer's are they for sale by chance I'm in Massachusetts and I would like to check them out if you could reach out to Darrell I believe that is his name in regards to them I would appreciate it I hope that this would not be too much of an inconvenience thank you Michael
Sure Michael. How would Darren get in touch with you?
Oh the memories Working with your buddies on junkers. Very enjoyable guys!
Thank you Steve. We were able to jump back into the past on this one.
Another excellent job,the truck sounds good,the both of you teaming up with some long life friends,and the way everyone work together,perfect team.
Thanks Mark. I'll miss working with those guys.
And as our threesome go barreling down the road, we hear Richard say( just as the spring brakes) wake Christiner, she's never seen a wreck like the one were fixing to have.😂❤
Another great video, thanks! Good friends, good work, and of course great filming.
Thank you. We really appreciate your support.
Those old chevys just want to run richard great job
Thanks for the support Robert!
Breaks your heart to see a old chevy sitting rotting away
Awesome content has usual,i really enjoyed this video same as always take care and see you in the next 1 stay safe and god bless u
Thanks for the support Mac.
Loved it. Great to see friends back together again. Great to see these great old Car's and truck's brought back. As always I liked and shared. All my very best.
Thank you for the continued support!
should do a will it run on the vehicle behind the 3 guys when they were reminiscing near the end.
this video was cool
It's really sad for me that I will never get to see the burnt Chevy restored!
Don't give up!
Another great video, again, thank you
Thank you Darren. You made it happen!
Christina, you’ve done a brilliant job there get all these guys back together wrenching on cars. What a great video keep on coming ❤
Thanks very much. She went above and beyond arranging this.
Awesome vid man. This was A great video showing friends never forget working together and watching you three fixing and getting that old truck running was fantastic.
Thanks very much!
Good job getting the old Chevy truck running guys
Thanks very much!
Good job MR 👍👍👍
Thanks!
That thing is cool! Runs pretty good too.
I love it. I'd like to have one myself.
Another great video. Nothing like having fun with friends
Thanks!
Good.job😄👍👍👏👏👏cool truck 😍
Thank you Francois!
Great vid , thanks for sharing 👍💨💨
You're welcome! Thanks for watching.
Great to see you guys back
Hope you all had fun like too see the girl more
Cool truck. It will be a great truck to drive
Definitely!
That’s a cool dump truck A friend of mine had the same one great piece of history
I agree. It is quite a truck.
So who’s truck is this. so you stayed in the great state of Maine. To revive an old logging truck. You guys did get the old car going. Christina does an amazing job with the videos. Old stories Shaun and Bryant’s of teenage escapades traveling. Richard your the best in will they run. The Engine don’t sound bad. Busted manifold will do that. And it moves. Cool 😎 Thanks for sharing.💯👍
Hi Terry, It was Darren's (the same guy that owns the 1930 Chevy). He bought it from a friend but never used it because it didn't run. Now with a couple of things it can be back on the road!
Thanks!
Thank you Terry! You are so generous in supporting our channel ❤️ We appreciate it 🙏
You rock Terry!
Awesome to see another one running again. 👍👍👍 Excellent job guys!! I wish i had a "will it run" to share, but all i have is a lawn mower that needs maintenance.....lol. Thanks again for sharing, Richard and Christina! I'm a very loyal subscriber!
Thanks David. Yes, you have been with the channel for a long time. We appreciate your support very much.
Everyone needs at least one dump truck
So true.
Cool truck! 🔧🔧🔧🔧🔧🔧🔧🔧
Awesome video all! Love that o.g. color
Thanks very much! Christina likes the color too!
great video
Thanks Howard!
nice vid thanks yall. omg...flexihoses, sir morticus wouldnt approve. lol.
You're welcome!
That reservoir is for the power steering.
I would love to see you guys do something with that blue Fiat. I would like to learn more about those.
We'd like to do it too, but the distance probably makes another trip up there unlikely anytime soon.
GOOD friends will ALWAYS be there for each other! Wannabe friends will sell you down the river or stab you in the back!
The three musketeers
You should get those beautiful lancias running instead!!!
I thought the same, but we just didn't have time.
Majik story !!
Good job & nice approach (offering views on tech. details, as usual) !
But that's a shame you did not take (good) care of one of the Lancia Beta.
Italian car with a transversal 4 cylinders DOHC, injection or carb. (I did not see) !
I suppose those cars were excluded from the "contractual" scope.
I also assume convenient spare parts would be difficult to find for such a sophisticated
car.
So far, hi-tech. Lancia Beta HPE+volumetric compressor was also available at the time.
Not only the engine ... Lancia internal & external designs were nice and sophisticated (including brake
& suspension systems).
Thanks Christophe. We actually did not know those Lancia Beta's were there until after we arrived. I would have loved to get the blue one running, but there was no time. Thanks for watching!
👍👍👍
In my country with winter salt, new car don't last more than 12/13 years without rustproofing... 😠
That's right.
There is no wet tank on those bobtail dump trucks. All the hydraulic oil is put in either in the pump or in the hydraulic ram.
Thanks for the info. Where would the pump be located?
@@whattherust there sould be a shaft comming from the pto on side of the transmission. The shaft runs the pump that usually hangs down under the truck or the dump body. That is if no one has removed it.
I can identify with learning about mechanics from owing crap. I like jags and land rovers. There’s a Land Rover saying making mechanics out of owners since 1947.
If you got a pile of jags n rovers you likely are fine with wrenching or you’re broke
That is a great line! I will remember it.
Strange. I just noticed I wasn't subscribed to you any more. Just re-subbed.
Thank you Larry. Much appreciated.
Nice old truck! I love them old Chevrolet valve covers like that, I wish my '92 had them. What state are yall in if you don't mind me asking? I noticed your friends accents, can't tell if its New York or up further north. And wearing long sleeve shirts, that ain't happening down here you'll have a heat stroke 😄
We are in Nashville but grew up in Mass where my friends still live. The truck is in Maine. Thanks for watching!
Nice! I enjoy your videos, keep up the awesome work reviving them old classics!
toujours vue en france...
Ok so nobody is going to mention that carb looks like it was put in there two weeks ago?
It had been there a long time. The video makes it look nicer than it was.
@@whattherustyou saw it firsthand so I gotta believe you. Seems like someone had been in there recently though especially since it was freed up. Nice work either way.
Man. looks like someone recently replaced the carb and air filter !
Need more will it start 😮😮😮😢
We have one coming soon that was very difficult. Stay tuned!.
That can looks like it’s a big block power steering remote fluid container.
Absolutely fantastic looking and now running truck. The patina and lettering are looking great too❤. C ant wait to see what you guys are going to eventually turn it into.😊
Thanks Mike! This one would be cool to drive as-is.
EPISODE 2 MOE LARRY CURLY. DEWEY CHEATUM AND HOWE, A 1 AUTO SERVICE!!!!!!
Maine has only one area code statewide, it's 207.
Do you think Richard and the guys could get that old Amish buggy to run? Jus' pokin' fun....
It is lacking horsepower!
@@whattherust, I kinda figger'd that. But what a neat piece of lawn art.
The donor car for the sprng is a Lancia, not a Fiat.
That's right.
That’s the p.s res. Very doubtful if it plowed.
Hi y’all from west Alabama
Jamie I adore you! Richard told me we had our first comment 15 minutes after launching and I said " Is it Jamie from Alabama " you are definitely a top 10 fan! We sincerely appreciate you 🙏
@@christinarust6957 yes ma’am it is
@@christinarust6957 are y’all ok
Doing fantastic! Driving to work on a truck as I type this. Hope you are fantastic as well!
@@christinarust6957 don’t feel good hun
Lite a match see if it’s gas
Small block Chevys always seem to run.
So true. Thanks for watching.
Hello Chris OHara hear having a problem with my 4 speed swap my starter is a 4 speed starter will not fit into the bellhousing I wondering if the aftermarket bellhousing is bad shape?
Send me a pciture and maybe I can help you out. Rdb6x@yahoo.com
you checked the horn?
Lol. It probably never ran again after they put that Edelcrap carb on it. Those carbs never run GM engines well at all.
now that's a pretty ...big project. :) good to see everything was still in place, as if they tried to make it run again back when, and not just abandoned it. well, everythign helps. :)
here in germany those who fix old trucks and machines have a bad standing, as nobody ever kept to old parts, and they have to be lucky finding brake parts for example. they still do incredible jobs keepign alive what used to provide us with food and stuff and housing, sotosay. so I'm curious what will become of this old big chevy. :)
and that writing on the door, very interesting. but what's this, the phone number doesn't start with 555? hollyweird taught us that all numbers in america start with three fives; have they been lying to us all these years?
WORLDVIEW
SHATTERED
Funny stuff Lothar. Thanks for watching.
Why do yanks have small bodies and huge prime movers.Two axle in AUS 16 tonne . prime mover with tri 42.5 tonne .But run two and three trailers maybe four we call B doubles and Road Trains
Do you have any of those cool grass hangers available in your merch store?
That is a great idea for a t-shirt!
This truck is not a 68. The Cab lights tells me she is a 70 to 72.
Professor rust
Its a car engine by the looks of it. Could be a 350 Buick
The Buick 350 had the distributor in front caught my knuckles off the fan blades more than once and the valve covers had 6 bolts not 4 like the Chevy.
That brake system is HYDRA Vac and $$$$$$. To. Repair. Vac. Resiviour. Under driver step😢😢😢😢😢
Sounds like a diesel..
That thing is making oil
I liked it better when you did all the narration. Since you have your helper I don't want you as much. I like it when it's just you talking. Just saying. Sweet lady but your narration alone is excellent. She would be great just paying the camera lady. Just my two cents.
Yall don't know what you are looking at. You need to be more familiar with the truck
Camera woman talks way to much I’m losing interest in the show.
