    That truck should have a headlight dimmer switch on the floor, try clicking it a few times with the switch on , they corrode up sometimes.

    I think it just needs some chrome wheels, chrome bumper, chrome cab lights, chrome front grill, chrome studs, chrome mirrors, chrome exhaust stacks, chrome rack on the rear, chrome mud flaps, chrome dice, a chrome plated power washer to wash the chrome with, two or three videos of new sponsors and an extordinary amount of adverts inbetween sponser plugs, then a video of stripping off bits where a power wrench can reach before parking it next to the first one and asking for a vote if he should buy a thrid cab over which just needs some chrome wheels, chrome bumper................

    The headlight problem is most likely the floor mounted dimmer switch, plug a new one in and see if they work before digging any further.They used to be cheap and usually that is where headlight problems started..

      I like that too. I am the last of that generation, my education record has me written as sergeant, and I got called a senior airman. I was a crew chief. Not sure where they used this truck, but air force hauled more than missiles. we hauled everything. that truck may have delivered all kinds of stuff.

    Watching this video of picking up this truck reminds me of when I was a kid. My dad one’d used truck dealership. I worked for him from 16-20 hrs old. Before I got my drivers license I would go out as a helper with our heavy duty tow truck driver to pick up trucks he had bought. As soon as I got my license I started gong out on my own. Back the I didn’t need a CDL. It didn’t come in to effect in NJ until 1978.i would sometimes meet up with my dads partners driver “Buck” and our driver “Ricky” and we would sometimes move as many as 5-6 trucks at a time when they had bought fleets. I look back on how much JUNK I drove over3-400 miles at a clip and I am amazed that I made it. Anyway babbling on. Just reminiscing watching this. Have a great day and good luck Bruce,

    Hello this comment is probably to late to HELP.. But years ago my family owned a 400 Big Cam Cummings in a Kenworth K100 farm grain truck. Our radiator failed & would leak under pressure the engine had a air operated thermostat bypass. So we ran the K100 with no radiator cap & the thermostat bypassed. Every return from the field we would ADD hot water to the radiator. It ran hot but never we never ran it dry & later in the year we found a used replacement radiator...... my opinion is if you have to run a engine with a week radiator Remove the Thermostat & Remove the Radiator Cap because my opinion is it is better to run a engine with cold coolant being moved by the water pump. Than try to used a radiator that will not pressure up & cause the engine to boil dry....good luck...

Talked so highly about this truck and showed pictures at perfect angles to make it look pristine. Funniest part, It has all the same negatives that he described about the other truck he gave up on to get this one. I voted to restore the truck he had started already. He'll have a vote to get rid of this one within a month. Or it will sit in the background while he starts and stops the next bazillion projects.

    hi Bruce, thanks for the video!
    I think you have a lot of work on this one, maybe not as much like the International, because it's a simpler machine, but work nonetheless. I think it would have been a better idea to prep the blue cab for the long haul, finishing the repairs on the trailer and make the roadtrip to get this truck hauled rather than drive it home by itself, so much risk of something going very wrong in the middle of nowhere, a couple of weeks to get things done on the blue cab and the trailer would have been better in my opinion.
    Well, you already took the decision, so keep your head cool, have safe trip home!
