I would have bet my farm that the engine would have been locked up. Good job!

Takes me back to when I was that age. We did this all the time. Self taught mechanics, way before the internet. Good times and great video!!!

I drove a similar F-600 in the early 80's for a food distributor. 360/4 speed. The company had many newer trucks, but that one was my favorite.

Nice to see a good young man getting his hands dirty and wanting to work on vehicles that's awesome keep doing what you're doing

Absolutely awesome content brother!!! This channel will take off 100% just keep the content coming!! There's a massive fan base for this kind of stuff on KZfaq but you seem to add that extra something which is what people will gravitate to!! I found your channel today and I've been binge watching since. Lol. If you get that truck running and idling on its own (without the aid of starter spray) I'll eat my shorts!!

I'm amazed the truck isn't covered in rot considering how much time it spent under water. The wood in the box even looked fine too! I'd say turn it into a camper or sell the box and turn it into a cool rig, I'm sure someone would want an old truck box. Awesome vid tho!

This 72 year old grandma really enjoyed this video. Reminded me of my youth. Had friends and boyfriends who were, “gear heads.”

man i bet that starter was heavy , trying to hold it with one hand in place and use the other to try and thread in the bolt, you have my respect! still cant believe you got it to fire!

Perfect truck for a 7.3 or 12v swap cut a couple feet of the frame behind the back wheels through a flatbed on it and have a badass all round truck

Definitely want to see this truck drive on it’s own.

I'm not going to lie, I love this. Clean this thing up and show us.

WOW! THAT is one of the best will it run videos Ive ever seen! Keep up the great work! Can't wait for the future videos! Subscribed :) The whole time, i was yelling at you about the oil, very happy to see the drain pan when you got it home ;) Is it making any oil pressure?

Great video ! Glad to see that old truck get brought back to life again. Makes me want get back to work on my 79 F150 4x4.

I just came across your page and this video pretty awesome. It’s cool to see young men take interest in restoring a old truck. I enjoyed watching videos and these guys just earned a fan a subscriber

I seen your KZfaq short on this 1st. So I had to watch! Great job and determination on getting that old truck running.

Kid,you got skills. Stumbled upon your stuff and been watching ever since. Keep it up.

Great video man, I love your style and execution. I love wrenching on cars, and I’ve been out there in the rain and snow all alone so many times. It’s something we all share as mechanics, and there is a certain beauty to this hobby

That's either a 360 or 390. You can find specs on those engines. Parts are very easy to find also and cheap. Look up the numbers on the bottom of the block. Also sometimes you can find information stamped near the valve cover.

Is there a part 2 for the truck would like to see it

Geez Louise put a breaker bar on the crank bolt and manually spin it before you burn up a new starter

Yall did an awesome job! And when yall were pullin up to the truck, it gave me massive snowrunner vibes

Awesome video. I watched the whole thing. You working in the rain all day and night without having to be made to do it really gave me a little hope for our future lol. And that tractor snatching that truck out had me tensing up like I was behind it pushing or something. You totally earned my sub. Keep up the great videos and I'll keep doing my part and one day we'll make you YT rich 👍

I have always liked the Fe Ford engine but now I have new profound respect for them I just can't believe it ran

Great video! I came across the short and had to see if that old beast fired up! I really liked how you gave a shout out and thanks to everybody that helped you along that way. Great content

Definitely an old FE Ford engine. If the engine can survive that, I'm sure the trans probably did too. Not to mention the rear tires were turning so it's not locked up. As long as the clutch functions she should shift. The front wheel bearing could be fun, but probably will turn out just fine. I would keep it mechanical on the fuel pump, and freshen up the carb. Maybe put a Edelbrock intake and a 4 barrel carb on it just to squeak out a little more horse power. All things considered she sounded healthy. That old Ford just said fix me I still have a lot or work yet to do. And it would be a bad ass camper. Parts aren't that hard to come by once you have which FE she has in her. Summit Racing will have almost everything if not everything to completely overhaul and tune the engine.

Love the little comedy skits in-between the informative content, really kept me interested, The gun persuasion one got me the most

Good shit man. As a Ford guy and someone who grew up doing this sort of thing. Keep it going man. Can't wait to dive into more videos

Definitely would want to see a part 2

I'm simply in awe at your dedication.

i hope your content doesnt change, you have an actual story and i feel the grind with you its awesome, dude

This was awesome to watch and I love that you are also a Christian and good job doing this bro, thought it was just a piece of junk! God bless brother

I hit rewind like 15 times on you falling at the beginning and laughed until I teared up... Holy crap so funny

If it's cylinders and rings weren't bad before they probably are after all that continued starting fluid rather than gasoline. Either isn't cylinder friendly

Lol you obviously thought it would run to buy the parts I was going to bet I could start it from growing up doing this kind of stuff with alot worse looking to start with but it's awesome to see a young guy doing it now days those old fe motors will take some abuse and keep on going great video glad to see you cut the belts and address the wires just rebuild that carb throw a gas can under the hood to the fuel pump and fire it up your so close also get some water in the radiator and see if the water pump is working and put a new thermostat in it and you'll be doing burnouts in no time awesome video thanks for sharing

How many times did you start it before it idled? Love the dedication , trying to get stuff done while flooding was happening. You got some cojones kid!

Wow Man I can’t even believe that it’s running!!! Awesome work !!!

Visual definition of perseverance. Great job!

Slow clap young man. (Wipes away tear) that was beautiful. Good for you dude. Your doing awesome stuff

Hey man great video! Glad you found my post on Facebook about the starter! I know I went through hell trying to find it 😅 (Nick Hooks)

Awesome job guys keep the videos coming!!

Amazing content bro keep up the work man. It really amazes me how good of a mechanic you are just love it👨🏻‍🔧👨🏻‍🔧👨🏻‍🔧🦾

Best intro to any video I’ve seen in years. LOL. Well done!!!

Damn boy you had to work hard for that, great job!

Awesome video bud, we are going to help you get this channel out there to the masses.

Great video, love you bro your personality is everything ❤

most people wouldnt even attempt to save this.. awesome job!

Great job I saw the video short and I got hooked and had to see the full video. Did a great job I had to subscribe and turn on those notifications.

Impressed with this young man...good for you

oh damn... bonus fall at the end... Way to stick it out buddy. It was a job well done. Liked Comment and Subbed

Homie was dedicated Fr, in the rain, in the snow, at night, DRIVING THRU S FLOOD 😭

Just saw your post on the fb group nice job

Nice to see , thank you.

I’d be proud of that! Great job, got my sub!

Underrated channel, can’t wait to see you blow bro!

I love the video!!! Make more!!! Please!

Way to go bro! Never give up. 👍

Great video fam! Got yourself a new subscriber, is there a part 2 for this bad boy?

Bro when you ate shit I lost it so glad you left it in there def gonna subscribe where you are now is right about where VGG was when I subbed to them just need to put out more vids and keep us up to date in this truck

I was anxiously awaiting the largest ether backfire in recorded history. Glad you missed that one. For future reference, a less volatile option is a soda bottle full of gasoline with a nail hole through the cap. A steady drip keeps most things running while you bumblefuck around.

Great work

you guys are going to blow up in no time , great content 👌😂

I’m blown away, you have earned my respect and a subscriber I’m a Kentucky man too

Sketched me out every second of watching you mess with electrical

Need a part 2 please

Thanks, for sharing

I’m proud of you little dude

Came here from shorts cool chanel

I'd say that's a 74 to 77. ADHD is a struggle. Awesome vid!

Excellent job!

Can’t wait for part 2

Great video!!

How does no one know about this kid yet? 10 months ago? Damn bud yah should be out there like VGG

He'll that aluminum box is worth a lot knock all the metal off it and take it down to sale at the junk yard that's a pretty penny 👌

Good too know it was kept up well and had the water changed once a year 😂

Great video

Awesome video

Can’t believe it wasn’t totalled , amazing if the water is pure ie no salt that it can be saved

Great video brother 👍

Very persuasive

So what wound up happening to the sweet old box truck?

Would you not power bar hand crank it before trying to turn over with the jump leads

Part 2 when??? 1st vidoe I've watched of your's. Id love an update

watching people fall over never gets old

Shes a fixer upper, but it's a beast if it survived many floods. Keep her and put her to good use.

Please tell me you’re doing a video of it running on its own and driving it. That would be cool. How long was it sitting there for? I’m shocked you freed that engine up

Awaiting for part 2

Real skill💪

I'm surprised it started great job! talk about bringing back from the grave lol 😂

Do you have a updated video on this I love the truck video

You really putting I. The work .

Some one has taken the time to lurn how to turn a wrench .good job

This is insane

Part 2!?!? Fun vid

Good Job Braden. Just came across this vid. I there still a part 2 coming?

You need to get you one of them Lonewolf starters like Derek on Vice Grip Garage, good work though. 👍
