    One has to love the excitement of an "old school" junkyard. The fuzzy feeling in a stomach with the hairs on the neck standing up only compares to a bull elk 20 feet away in thick timber.
    I regret selling the 59 GMC 1/2 ton with the 270 inline 6. Even had a "fleet grill" in it.

      @@WelderUpVegas as I was watching the video I was telling myself those were put back there for you. If anybody is going to find the gold it is definitely you. Always big love brother we would make notes and fold the paper up like a triangle and we would flip as far as we could for the field goal. And hope it got to where it needed to go before the teacher got a hold of it 🤣🤣🤣🤣♥️🤟🏽🤟🏽

    Bonjour Steve,
    In France, we have not such junkyards ! Bultaco, Kawasaki, you know also them, cool, I was Yamaha 😁
    A Cummins in this nice truck ? Why not and could you remind me why you prefer diesel to gasoline engines ?
    In France especially, diesel was promoted because built by a French company you perhaps know, Peugeot, merged later with Talbot and Citroen and now a worldwiid firm called Stellantis.
    Amicalement, Raphaël

    • @WelderUpVegas
      @WelderUpVegas  Рік тому

      I'm not apposed to gasoline but I do prefer the older Cummins because I can run alternative fuels in them. Thanks again Raphael for watching!
