    Now we're talking! This episode takes me back years ago to when I first started watching you guys. A father and son, daughter and friends digging out and old vehicle. This video deserves a million likes.

    Yes, a new Turnin' Rust video ! I'm getting addicted to your channel. It's crazy how UA-cam has 1000 times more choices than network TV. This is awesome.
    That dude's 4WD Cadillac cracks me up every time. I see you went and bought one of those green stretchy looking tow ropes you liked so much. That's a lot of good firewood, and a landscaping company would've charged $500 to do that, anyway, but you guys enjoy it and it's good karma because you did it in stride.

    That gas saw definitely has a dull chain. The electric saw showed its stuff with how it started every time the operator pulled the trigger. No jerking on the rope. No slow going through the tree. Just even easy cuts and no slack, all work. I have a couple of EGO chain saws and a couple of the small Sakos. My Poulan and my Stihl gas saws have not cut a branch or tree in a couple of years. I also have push and riding EGO mowers. I have a bunch of batteries and a few fast chargers. No problem, no buying fuel or remembering to mix the gas and oil. I love it. Ego weed whackers and etc... never back to gas. If it is broke its easy to fix, no problems. No need to take to a small engine mech.

      @bernieleclerc9100 Місяць тому +6

      That’s exactly what I was thinking. when you have a good chain on your saw you don’t have to slide it back-and-forth like a handsaw. sliding it back-and-forth first of all doesn’t do anything.

      @ericblom9568 26 днів тому +1

      I wanna start out Wes, if I could by, wishing you a Merry Christmas! The reason that "car" has such a strong pull is simply because it's a car body (Lincoln) mounted atop a Truck chassis/drivetrain. I'm not an expert so please don't think I'm talking down to you; just an ol' gearhead who has an addiction for speed & grease, though NOT necessarily in that order, lol. I love watching videos like this as well as those from Vice Grip Garage, Budget Buildz, Junkyard Digz, No Nonsense Know How & Pole Barn Garage.

    I’m retired now, not my choice mind you, MS took me out of the game, but I spent 29 years over the road. I’ve dreamed of restoring an old COE. Those old rigs are the most beautiful trucks that ever roamed the roads. I’m proud of my old rig Penny, she did me right for 20 years, she was a Cascadia glider. I loved that truck but she was no COE. Beautiful find fellas.

  • @glentucker4250
    @glentucker4250 Місяць тому +2

    Wow. Reminds me of you guys cutting out that ol Volvo. She sure did put up a fight though. Oddly enough, that vintage of trailer would not have parking brakes. Service brakes only. And if I’m not mistaken, the trucks parking brake was a cable, connected to a lever in the cab that would engage a pinion style drum brake right behind the tranny. Can’t wait to see what you guys uncover trying to get this ol’ girl up and running again. Many thanks to Shawn for helping too! Definitely gonna head over and check out his channel. Love that monster Merc. Thanks guys and God bless!

    The wheels on the rear of trailer look like a split rim, NOT a split ring, many people confuse these. These things are dangerous, don't even try to put air in them, they can blow apart and kill you. They are known as Firestone RH - 5 wheels, 'Widowmakers'. Firestone was sued over these years ago. Throw them in the junkpile.

    • @markfortin421
      @markfortin421 27 днів тому +1

      Had a '49 Ford F-6 with that kind of rim, and I couldn't find a truck tire dealer that would touch them. Never knew about them until after the fact...and I was trying to put air in them!!! Guess I'm pretty lucky!
      Thanks for warning them, we don't need to lose somebody.

    Well, that was a lot of rust to be turned, but it turned in the end. :) (I felt a bit sorry for the young one who had to do the most heavy work...) lifting the wheels out of their holes would have been among the first things I did, including the trailers' end. :)
    anyway, you all look like you know what you're doing, so there. :)
    these COEs are fascinating. you guys had them when here in europe we had only long-nosed trucks, the longer the better. and it has the correct trailer, too! it's like for us model car collectors, finding a rare rig at the flea market or garage sale, complete but needing repaint... feels like xmas. ^^

    Get her going, re-deck the trailer, and maybe add some ramps, and you'd have an awesome car hauling rig for shows that'd be probably the most unique thing on the block!
    Also a great rig for just general hauling of stuff, like she was built to do.
