    I love the 59 chevy truck look ! I had a half ton, but sold it to make room for my 46 chevy half ton. Couldn't resist the 46's beauty when I ran into it. I think the 46 was the most stylish, and awesome truck ever designed !!!

    @johnt4060 5 років тому +4

    I came for the tow truck... But Geeked out over that dragline shovel he had!
    You don't see very many draglines anymore.
    Also kinda cool seeing that skidder pull the tow truck out. I grew up around those skidders when i was younger. We lived around the logging industry and it wasn't uncommon to see those things dragging logs out the mud
    I'll bet I'm the only 18 year old on UA-cam who can say that though.

    • @johnt4060
      @johnt4060 5 років тому +1

      I used to know an older man when i was a kid who had one. Some boys like cars, others like tractors, but I'm into those draglines

      +Classic Truck Rescue HEY RICK, I just watched the vd on the tow truck. I was surprised and amazed to see the marquet {sp} crane. I have one thats from the mid 40s called a manual crane that has a hand cranked winch on it. ours are not the same but yours is the only other one i have ever seen! mine was mounted on a 47 chevy 3/4 ton i used for a tow rig for about 10 years. If know where to get infro on it please pass it on. love your vds keep it up.

    Nice video and I love seeing these old trucks rescued. When I was a kid on the farm we had a '55 snub nose with a 16' frame we used for farm and sawmill duties. It had a 3 speed with granny low all powered by a little 283. That thing would pull anything. You may not be the first one there, but you'd get there with anything you loaded on it. I drove it all through my teenage years all the way through college. When I went off to the Air Force my dad retired and sold the old truck. But does anyone else see the irony of the big "bad" monster Ford tapping out and having the little "stock" farm truck finish it's work? LOL

The Viking coming home, lol, Homer. Those old trucks probably met each other out on the road 50 years ago. I'm happy that you can save them. Very groovy tractor, baby yeah!

No need to wait to see 'Homer" Running though. You can see that by watching 'Part 2" of the Homer video, or by watching 'Homer's First Haul". He's already out doing what we intended him to do.

    Marquette wrecker bodies & booms were made in Mpls., MN. My dad had a 1962 C-60 with just the boom on it with a single rear axle.

    Recently while hunting down some parts that are not on the Market yet for our Rusty Jimmy project I went to the edge of a field to look at a 76 K5 Chevy Blazer hoping to get Brian an interior which didn't pan out the interior was the wrong color also shabby to say the least and the rest of the truck was too. However upon opening the hood I discovered a lovely fairly late model Holley single pump 800 which are pretty rare and to be in working cond like this one was I decided to go get my lunch eating a sandwich while doing my forensic eval of what parts I also wanted to get off the truck. And then this really cute Racoon decided to be friendlier than most I ever seen. I broke off half of my first sandwich and gave it to what I discovered was a young mother Racoon. She promptly took the piece of sandwich over to this ancient 67 Chevelle sitting a few feet away she gave the food to 3 babies that were living in the Chevelle's trunk, they were so cute one actually laid on the seat of the Chevelle since it had no pass side door they spent the remaining time just watching me begging me for more scraps and I didn't say no to em. I need to lose a few so I shared my lunch with em. I should have taken my camera along it was another time I was pushed for more time than I actually had to spend but I really regret not taking my camera along on that romp at the edge of that field.

    Found your site by accident, love it. I have been watching a lot of your videos and they are great. Tell Jamey(sorry for the spelling) she looks great, you have a great partner there. Keep up the awesome job of rescuing and recording it for us to enjoy.

      +Ben Pratt Well, that's because the trailer was here when I made the Project 55 video, which was last week. Trust me, there isn't a team of 15 guys here. Just one guy and a really cool girl, cleaning up old trucks and getting them running when we can. Thanks Fer Watchin' -Rick

    Homer rescued again...Loved seeing it again knowing his future. Glad you didn’t name him Mater, he’s way tougher than him. 1959, just a youngster to this guy born in 1958.
