Join in with the Turnin Rust crew as they receive the whereabouts of a forgotten 1952 Pontiac Chieftain. Upon arrival the guys find out that this isn't their typical barn find with rats and debris under the hood, but instead the engine compartment is packed full of a 12 Valve Cummins Diesel! Being that the car has been sitting up for several years, the team jump in headfirst to see what it's going to take to get this old Chief back on the road again. Will they be able to get this unique piece of automotive history back on the road again, or has it possibly let off its last smoke signal?!

I don't know if you're aware but all of your videos have TONES of accidental ASMR triggers. I love it!!! One example in this video would be from 23:19 to 25:15. The head mount camera is perfect for creating those moments. Great content guys!! I watched the Elvis Limo video before this one and I think it's going to be a Sunday filled with Turnin Rust and RESTORED videos. Take care and God Bless your family!

Love your channel and the Chieftain! This car brings back memories. Way back when (1968) my big brother’s first car was a blue ‘52 Chieftain (purchased for $125). It was sweet and he named it “Buhla”. My bro passed away a few yrs back so I was thinking perhaps your Chieftain could be named “Buhla-2” in his honor? Keep up the great work and God Bless! Brian

There are so many of these "Will It Run" videos on You Tube. I want to see someone fully restore a junked and forgotten vehicle, start to finish. I understand that it isn't easy and for the most part not a great investment time or money wise, but if I only had the skills...

My folks had a '51 Pontiac when I was a kid, so I've kind of got a thing for 49 to 52 Pontiacs. Dad was always fiddling with that ol' car and fixing it up. They traded it in on a new '63 Ford Fairlane station wagon and I never did take to that Ford like I did that ol Pontiac.

Hey I drove past your place a couple of weeks ago on a Saturday but nobody was around. I was just out for a Saturday drive seeing if I could discover any old gems hidden away in pastures or back yards. I got very lucky and found an 56 two door Chevy. I'm going back with my trailer Tuesday to pick it up. If I have time I'll swing by your place again.

This is a cool old car for sure. I would definitely restore the entire interior as best I can, I'd add a bigger turbo, a front mount intercooler, and a really cool exhaust, but I'd only wetsand and clearcoat the existing patina.

HI Wyatt & Lance! Love your stuff. I'd really like to know more about that wonderful old1940 Chevy Dubl Duti. Can you please give an update on the project. You said at the end of your last video about it: "... I've dug around on the internet and I'm quite confident in knowing that this is probably the only one of its kind in existence and to know that she actually still runs, it's just so cool to know that the only one is still up and running now. There's been a whole lot of controversy of what we should do with this old van. We love custom builds around the shop but with a piece this rare it would be really cool to see it go back to its originality with that being said we're going to keep working on it." I'm hoping you're still doing a "back to original" restoration on it. Thanks!

I've never really understood why Cummins and other diesel engines haven't been more popular in the Rat Rod community. There's no classic V8 that looks half as good as a Cummins naked up front in a brutal rat rod. Or a Detroit Diesel, they look amazingly good, if you can't have a straight 8 petrol engine (which makes the best sound), go for a big diesel.
