Still a prized possession if its restored

@@Dr.pepperz06 our savior... noticing it's a fucking car.!
@@Dr.pepperz06no it's a truck
That engine is a large series 1929 Buick engine. That hole is in the heat exchanger, the valves control the carb heat… duct tape will do nothing but melt. Just set the valves to closed until you replace the pipe. The engine will run fine at closed setting.
That is a great engine, it even has roller lifters and a harmonic equalizer on the crankshaft. There are insert bearings in the rods and mains.
The only weak point is the fiber timing gear… replace that with a cast metal gear and you are good to go. Yours turns easy so it will probably run fine once the ignition is gone through.
My 1929 Buick had a small series engine and has set for maybe 50 years… the crankshaft needed a light Emory paper cleanup and new bearings from the local Napa store. Ran great until the fiber gear failed… with an available metal gear all was fine!
Kinda crazy that nearly 100 year old engines can work after so long, some of them can be difficult to find information for.
“The termites quit holding hands and the whole thing fwll apart.” 🤣 new one for me!
This is similar to a joke I’ve always told when I saw a shitty looking house. “Hey Eddie, your house looks like a bunch of termites holding hands!”
"chunks are always good. that's just high performance right there" LMAO 😂
Will there be a complete restoration process of this truck
Teamwork makes the dream work
Bro I'm only half way through this..but I believe you dumped almost 4LT's of transmission fluid in the calendars and your not sure what's in the pan?
I'm truly hoping I'm going to see you do the filter! And take the valve cover off and run some fresh oil over them 🙏 I seen a few comments you got it running but it won't be for long if you mist these steps! The year of this and the amount it sat for, show it the respect it deserves buddy please! This truck will thank you for saving it properly cheers great find

We had my dad's old farm truck sat on our property for about 40 years. It was a 1952 international, and it sat so long the wheels were buried about 8 inches into the dirt. One day we changed the oil, battery plugs and wires and added some fresh gas. It started right up and drove just like it did before they originally parked it.

Great job! 👍 You got the old gal running again even though she had been parked in a field since your grandparents were just little kids. It's always amazing to see how old engines like this can still come back to life with a little effort, despite decades of neglect.
I'd love to see a 2019 truck start with this little effort in 2111 after sitting for 71 years in a field/forest.
Hahaha just the plastic will be left
The aluminum block an pistons will degrade .
I seen an aluminum block crumbling at the wreckers .
Was turning into this white dust
The moss was on it to looked Gross lol
@@jasons753 plastic will be brittle!
Modern cars don't last as well as older cars. A modern truck would be practically irreparable, especially with all of it's electronics.
lol some 2020 truck already dont run
The sound of pistons slowly firing and then increasing is a blessed sound of something you did well on, good job man can’t wait for the full restoration
Now that's a cold start lolllll
I had to watch this video a few times love the sound of that engine after all that time smoke included 😁
I doubt he will restore it, as much as I wanna see that happen. He will just skip to another car revival like he usually does.
@@ProjectRescues I did notice that, and you will probabaly need a full rebuild, most of those parts are junk
@@rich3316 burning off the old gas
What is also impressive is that when this old truck was made, you had to be "rich" to afford it. To have a motorized vehicle was a symbol of status and wealth. Amazing that you were able to breathe the breath of life back into this old veteran.
By 1929- cars were pretty commonplace.
Henry Ford took care of that..BUT- seeing a truck that isnt a Modell AA, or any of Fords derivatives,, is a little strange, to say the least !
It was parked in 1940 not 1910
our cultute is built around trends and has been since the beginning
I hope you did a bit more to it . That old truck sounded like it wanted to run . You are right about the fuel cannister being vacuum driven . Those were a float / valve type that would fill then shut off the vacuum until it got low again , then open the vacuum to fill it back up . That one would be worth some money restored . Probably the grandaddy of our modern wreckers today . It would probably clear up if it ran more , unstick the rings .
My grandfather loves your channel. He loves seeing you fix all the old trucks of the past. He was a mechanic in his day and he worked on most of the vehicles you see on your channel when they were new. You have made a weary old man very happy. Thank you JMS.
Does your grandfather knows what that guy looks like? Like in this video?

This is so gud
All technical analysis aside, I find it rather amusing that a mechanic is having what seems to be the same issues with this car as were had 80+ years ago. Thanks for sharing. Great video.
"The termites quit holding hands and she flat just fell apart." I will use that where ever possible. Thanks for teaching me that one.
When the engine ran, the rest of the termites fell off the truck in shock, and are headed pell-mell for the nearest cover!
At one point in time, this was someone's means to get food onto the table and feed their family and now you're trying to breathe a bit of life back into it. I'm not a car guy at all but this was seriously awesome.

Amazing how a frame from 1929 is rust free and structurally sound when we have modern pickup trucks with such horrible frame rust issues.
Cheap Chinese steel
I assume they didn't salt the roads back then
Nowadays everything is made to fall apart. Back in the day manufactures had integrity in mind
Yep, it's called 'They'll be back real soon to buy another one...'
Also has to do with safety
It’s so amazing to see her run. Those old engines ran on just about anything that would burn including drip oil out of a well head
These are the most fascinating videos I've ever seen, and your positive attitude is refreshing, like it doesn't matter what shape these vehicles are in, you're always finding something good to say about them
This guy is awesome 😂
He’s just a normal person doing normal person projects in a relatable way. “ I got this oil because it was on sale” it’s just so perfect
gotta remember too though that way older vehicles like that are not picky and will run on just about anything you put in them. So that’s likely why he just went for what’s cheapest.
@@Mika-ph6ku I know and it’s amazing because you usually see this shit on tv shows in big fancy garages and they spend hundreds on oil but this Is just a normal guy buying the cheapest most functional parts like a normal person does. And it’s awesome

If we could only do this with people hey...
Frames better then most Ohio
But it also shows just how much planned obsolescence there is today. If they could make trucks that lasted this long almost a century ago they could do so today.
It's just that car makers don't want to do that because they get most of their money from repairs. The reason many cars are difficult to repair these days is actually on purpose. To make sure they can charge you more.
Loved your sense of humor combined with your knowledge and skill. Was a fun one to watch. Thanks!
I just found this channel yesterday. This is awesome! Keep on bringing old engines to life!
Unconscious, left for dead, returning back to mother earth. But somewhere deep in her recesses there was still the faint spark of life. She coughs and sputters, then roars after almost a century! Absolutely amazing! Great job. After that I think I'd make her a life's project and restore her completely. What a cool truck to own.
Can you imagine rolling up to the Department of Motor Vehicles to get her registered, putt-putting, spewing smoke, with a couple of backfires for good measure ...... and all the old coots spilling out thru the doors to get a look at her. :0D
The fact that you even bothered to try get this running is testament to what we are capable of when we really want to do something. great work pal.
Actually, it's a testament to the quality of vehicles pre 1970, and an indictment against the new age of overpriced, underbuilt garbage they sell today and the consumers that don't demand better. Vehicles like this existed because consumers used to be educated. Now you've got a bunch of morons running around proud of the fact they are ignorant.

Really good job, sir! Old equipment is like a good dog...no matter how old they get, they're always reliable and willing to please...take care of her because she deserves it.
Amazing to see that engine finally cough to life and run for a bit. Yeah, she was smoking, but that's allowed given all the time she sat on her lonesome. The engine actually sounded pretty good once it got going, too. That truck would make an excellent rat rod. I'll check out the rest of your channel to see what you eventually did with it. Thanks for sharing this!

@SilverJustice Refugees? Lol people are going to where land is valued less and where there's an abundance of jobs. That's the free market for you. Besides, I haven't heard of any Oklahomans screaming at people with Cali plates, have you? Nor people pelting such folks with rocks or running them over with tractors as happened when the Okies went West during the Dust Bowl. To call them (modern day Californians) "refugees" shows a complete lack of understanding of how the American job and housing markets work. Someone who's lower/working class in Cali would equate to upper middle class in the Midwest. It's a no wonder people who aren't well off are moving. It's what happens when you have a bunch of corrupt neo-liberals in charge instead of people either on the left or right who know how to properly allocate money and put a stop to homelessness. You could stick either somebody fiscally Conservative Mitt Romnery or loose like FDR in California and either way it would be run better than the current Dem leadership there is doing. It's more of a hoarding wealth thing in general than "coastal elite Dems" thing.

This was a fantastic video. A real testament to how good American engineering was back then. That a motor could sit for nearly 80 years and still fire over and run.
Man I'm not being rude but today's vehicles are much more reliable, better alloys have been engineered to last wayyyy longer and tolerate more heat etc. Ya the old ones were tough but the new ones are even tougher
@@Lee-lb9qh simplicity I think is what makes them reliable. Like the other guy said. Sensors etc would die. Cars with fuel injection wouldn't be as simple to start after than long. Many cheaply made wires would frat and degrade. If kept inside sure maybe. Outside Like this car? Maybe a toyota truck. Other than that no
@@Lee-lb9qh you must be a salesmen or a fool. I can hear the sound of countless mechanics laughing just reading your comment.
Cars are built to last 10 years on average at most, as cheaply as they can get away with, with the parts and with maintenence as proprietary as they can make it. THAT is your modern standard.

I've often wondered, what would you restore on something in this state? The whole body is rusted through - you'd only really keep the engine block and transmission at most. The rest is toast. It's not really a restoration when you're replacing almost everything...

Most of that original smoke was the marvel oil, and other stuff you put in the cylinders.. Reminds me of when I got my 1942 generator started for the first time. First started hitting on one cyl, then 2, and gradually all 6 kicked in, and it smoothed out.
Ppppp⁰
My old landcruiser did the same thing, 8 years of sitting with no air cleaner or anything on it. A little atf and marvel treatment over about a week, and it smoked like that for about 15 minutes 😂

I second this notion.
This video helped me figure out something I own. I have a motorcycle trailer that a guy built in the 1970s. I could tell it was made from the front axle and frame channels of a truck, but I could never figure out what kind. I recognized the axle in your truck as the same one! So my motorcycle trailer is most likely made from a circa 1929 GMC or Chevy.
When he says the word coil it sounds exactly like he’s saying “cool” anyone else hear that?
Pretty cool that he got that old girl running and she definitely smoked a bunch and sounded like it was running on like 2 or 3 cylinders. Crazy that it started and ran after all that time. Cars these days would never start and run like that because they are made to break and are basically disposable…
They don’t make vehicles like that anymore.
Great job getting old girl running. 👍🏼
I’d love to see a series of just this truck! It’d be super cool to see this thing drive and maybe even restored

this will never not amaze me. these videos always are cool to see just because these old rust buckets somehow still run.

This is impressive when you consider that old truck wasn't left where it was because it was running well. It already conked out on someone which is why it was junked. He had to overcome not just 81 years of time, but the original mechanical issue(s).
There is a chance for all of us
Sometimes you just gotta wait for 80 years.
It might not have been abandoned because of failure. This was abandoned during the Great Depression, so it might have just been parked up and forgotten when the business failed.

Would love to see more videos on this truck being fixed up and brought back to life.
That was awesome! Love your personality.. I've been around car's, trucks, semi's and motorcycles for over 40yrs, so I know a little about this. It was fun, Ty.
These were built to last a lifetime. At least the engines were. This channel has taught me so much about the value of understanding combustion engines and how almost all men used to have basic knowledge of their cars . New cars now make it impossible to change a lightbulb without screwing up the computer. It’s becoming infuriating.
Buy an old car or truck its amazing what UA-cam can teach you these days!
More than a lifetime now hahaha
@@Swagmaster-ef5ls Not really a threat to their control/power but to their profits. If they sell something reliable, you'll keep it forever and they won't make profit on anything at ALL. Everything that usually needs to be changed (brakes, oil, tires..) can be found aftermarket for very cheap. Much like everything else in your household, the more recently it is made, the less longer it'll last solely because of that.
@@32HUNTER in some countries this isn't possible, where I live there are "emission zones". Inside these zones, it's illegal to drive certain cars (basically all old cars) that output a certain co2 emission, or you have to pay a lot of taxes to the points it's more economical to just buy a brand-new car. There are more and more zones created each year. By around 2035 it will be illegal to buy brand-new non-electrical cars from manufacturers. This prevents most young people from owning cars even if they need them because electric cars are super expensive.
@@mical-9066 wow
This mans country voice is the whole reason I watch this channel
@Secret Mystery Music Producer He sounds like Mr Mackay from South Park to me
Check out The Southern Gentleman (or something like that) on TikTok. A truly great Southern speaking voice.
That said where's that accent from?
It reminds me of cod ww2
Love your channel bro
Could you imagine is these machines had emotions and how this old workhorse would feel being powered up one last time
