Loved the view of the rear springs going from arced to nearly flat.

I have watched a lot of videos of people exploring car collections but BA is the first I have watched actually build a car collection. ;)

The old girl sounds great with the carb on. Glad to see you saving another old vehicle. Thanks for sharing. Looking forward to your next project.

It's true to say that yours is a most unique channel, and very entertaining. EXCELLENT presentation, very knowledgeable too. Also,if you run out of room you can just cut down a few more trees! Well done young feller, best regards from Ireland.

A failure on the boomtruck is the perfect excuse to upgrade it. Just like you did with the carb.

That "new" carb makes all the difference. She is just an awesome workhorse, the pride of the fleet. Another save - and a beauty!

I wonder if there's a cab that fits those, hiding up there somewhere in the yards of forgotten treasures?

I thought for a second the passenger door on that thing was good, but I saw it's dented too, but I wouldn't change a thing about that beauty!

Do you oil up those old motors when you put them away? I used to filter my old oil and use it for that sort of thing, in the cylinders, fill the case and generally give moving parts a good coat. I've watched all your videos and your getting a beautiful collection, any rhyme or reason to it other than old, cool and cheap?

@R.Sole88109 Жыл бұрын

The boom truck is still loyal, you can be mad at that. If the springs get sack out, you can follow Pegs lead in the video or would you be more a coil inset between the chassis, axle/leaf?. Either way, cheers for making the video🍺👍🏻 m.kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pZdye5ub3ZvNgac.html
