The smoke was the truck's way of saying "Thank you for fixing me. Now, let me help YOU by getting rid of those skeeters you were talking about." lol I love these old Chevy trucks. My Dad had a 67 with the same setup but was Red with a White cab top. Talk about a work horse!! Myself, I had the 68 GMC 3/4 ton with the monstrous V6 and 4-on-floor(1st was a Granny EXTREME). Uprooted many stumps with that Granny Gear. Great for baling hay, too. Ease out in Granny and let it just idle. I'd then hop out and walk along tossing and stacking bales as it slowly crept across the field. Had an older Brother with a 76 JEEP J20 with a max load of firewood rounds and got stuck(yes, even in 4x4). Normally my Dad's 67 C10 would pull him out, but one time got stuck as well. That 68 GMC pulled BOTH out while still being chained together. Dad's 67 could really carry the mail where my 68 could haul the Post Office building. lol Totally geared different, but equal in performance in their own Class.

Seeing a rig like that run after so many years is truly satisfying.

I like seeing old stuff being brought back to life....woof

Had one of those. Dropped a high performance 327 into it, headers, an oversize clutch, positive traction rear diff and had a blast until a "friend" wrecked it for me. I still dream about that truck thirty five years later.

Dude, you are very mechanically gifted. I know this one wasn’t as difficult as some of your other will it run episodes, I just gotta say hats off!!!

This has become one of my favorite channels. So awesome seeing these old vehicles getting a second wind to move about.

I’ve been binge watching your videos in no particular order. I’ve liked all of them but I have to leave a comment. I’m in my 40s and I’ve been on KZfaq for a minute, watching different videos, trying to figure out what I enjoy watching the most. Watching you get these things to fart smoke and breathe life, even if only for a little while… it’s one of the most impressive things I’ve seen on here. I’m assuming you’re not that old but you conduct yourself in a mannerism that appeals to older folks. I can show your videos to my grandson and not have to worry one bit. Thank you! Please keep the awesome content coming🤙🏻🇺🇸❤️‍🩹

I never get tired of seeing and hearing these machines come back to life

The thing that makes your videos more appealing to me, is that you seem to be a nice person, its just like fixing a car with a friend. A follower from Costa Rica 🇨🇷✌️

Gorgeous truck! Good year too - the year I was born.

These will it runs have been so fun to watch, thank you for letting us come along to see these wonderful machines wake up

That’s a classic truck. I always liked the look of GMC trucks from that period. Very entertaining video. Good work!

I owned a 70 c10 in high school, you’d stay drier in the rain than in that truck with all its deleted options .

Support this channel! I have no clue how the KZfaq world works. But we gotta keep this legend funded and rolling. I am young but not educated enough in computers to understand KZfaq or internet. But for those of you that understand computers and internet, make this fella a millionaire and him and his family comfortable so we are able to keep the old school legends going see him continue to his awesome education to the world

Been turning a wrench for 50 years plus and never thought to use a pop rivet as a way to block off a blown brake line. My best "hack" was always to fold it over and put a vise-grip on it till I got back to the shop.

love that truck and im glad you gave it the kiss of life,justin from uk

Bro, you’re an inspiration. I wouldn’t normally go out of my way to try and reach out to someone making videos, but hands down I was addicted to all your videos and killed my whole last week of work watching from the Diamond T to the Bavaria. You’re really doing something I enjoy, and I’m pretty sure I’ve learned a ton. Really makes me feel more confident wrenching around on my 250 in the 74 nova I got. Appreciate you brother

We have a 1970 C10 we found at a Memorial Day garage sale. Best $450 we ever spent! Have rebuilt the entire front end & rewired the alt. & reg. circuit as well as replaced the rubber fuel line with a metal one we made. The rubber line was running up across the butterfly exhaust manifolds!! Some people are dumb regarding gasoline fuel safety! Had another rebuild the 350 Turbo-Hydramatic transmission before he retired. Even hauling a 26 bales of 3-tie alfalfa at 50 to 55 mph the old truck attains 17.1 mpg at a steady 1,710 rpm. Amazingly slow engine speed from the factory. Must have real tall gears.Even came with the original warranty plate from Romania Chevrolet in Eugene, Oregon. We live in Dayton Or. Great to see your old C10 running again!

These videos make me so thankful I live in a colder, drier climate. Old vehicles that sit here don't have anywhere near the rot, wildlife, and general nastiness to them that the ones in your neck of the woods seem to! Then again, we get to deal with road salt...

really sweet to see that old truck running what a great ride

I love these old Chevy Trucks my first truck was a 1971 Chevy. That truck is very restorable.

63-72 are the best looking trucks chevy ever made and that 250 or 292 will never die

2 years ago I bought a rotted body 74 k10 for $500 out of some guys backyard. Every panel was rusted, the tires comepletely flat. Hadn't even been registered since 2009 let alone run. Hooked up a battery and a fuel can to the pump similar to this video. It started up without hesitation. I6 as well. These motors just want to run, it's amazing.

When the old gal fired up it was satisfying. When she started moving, a grin came across my ol' mug. Does a feller's heart good to see a good ol' Chevy truck get rescued.

Can you do a part two to the 1929 gmc truck please

Love these classics, three on the tree was what I learned on. Might need a valve seal or two. Hard to believe the pressure plate and clutch still worked after 30 years of sitting. Power brakes on this one was how much power you could put on the brake pedal. LOL

Love your videos, it's great seeing you drive that truck around after it had sit so long! Best to you!

You Should totally restore it! That's the pickup like my sister has always wanted!

She cleaned up real nice. She's worth more attention. :)

I was looking forward to seeing you drive the 1929 gmc

My grandpa had one of these but it was a 350 4 speed 4x4 and I was supposed to have it handed down to me. Unfortunately when he died the vultures came in and took it. You know how it goes.

Excellent! Always look forward to your will it runs. Can't wait for more!

Nice find and great to see it up and running

Great channel with a nice dollop of southern charm, excellent!

Thank you for this video, gave me a starting point to figure out why my 1972 c10 won’t crank over. Mine was sitting for 22 years in a field too!

Seeing you do a restoration on anyone of these old vehicles would be an awesome series! Keep the content coming !!

"The stopping is not that good but it does stop", sounds like the media covering for you know... Brandon.

Wow it cleaned up well.

I love those old straight 6 motors. Fine looking old rig. I'm a Ford guy all the way but I would love to have that.

Man I like to see these old trucks getting worked on ik I'm only 15 but I sure do like them old trucks more than these new ones

What a cool looking truck!!!! Glad it's back up and running again 😁👍

Beautiful old chevy. I’ve got a 72 myself. Loving the videos!

Thank you for posting these i love these videos man

I don't understand letting this truck sit and rot. This truck needs to be restored. I love that old truck. There is a lot of people who would.

Great job getting that old chevy running. I enjoy your videos. You are a great mechanic.

One of my favorite KZfaq channels. You're awesome!

My first car was a 72 c10 with the inline 6 and 3 on the floor. I have an 84 square body now, love those old Chevys, keep em running

Never knew I liked watching cars be fixed so much great video keep it up!

YOu do an incredable job with these videos! Love seeing them!

Got yourself a good ole chevy now. Anything with a vent window is my favorite! Your videos are just what a doctor ordered.Good luck to you and find more trucks.

that truck deserves alot more love. also i noticed the smoke clearing up after heating it up them rings freed up.

I’m liking this channel!! You do a great job at getting these old gals to run again!!

She really cleaned up 😮

Had a bit of memory shock when you pulled the air cleaning unit. I forgot how small the carbs are on those old trucks. Great video. I’m reminded of a lot because of you and I thank you for that. They look a lot like the carburetors on my old riding lawnmowers.

Bed floor delete... That got me. Fun find!

Old is gold how many people watch this💪evrry one like cold start its priceless😍😍

Put a few miles on it, give the rings a chance for the rings to losen up and the smoke should go away. 41000 miles is not much for an old straight six, they are pretty much bullet proof!

will it run is my new favorite thing on youtube. love what you’re doing!

Hell yeah man. I've got one same year and same color, but it's a C20 with a 307 and 4 on the floor. This channel is rad.

Greetings from New Zealand - I also really like your work. Highly entertaining, thanks!

Honestly, I have been looking for so long to find a KZfaq channel like this, it is one of the best ones ever, you should have more subscribers

Thats a $9,000 truck in my area in that shape at least

Great fix and good testrun, can't beat those straight 6 engines.

This truck cleaned up real nice and looks like a great candidate for a restoration project.

Enjoy these amazed at what you bring back to life ! Keep it up love shout you a beer sometime!

Love this channel… though I must admit I enjoy watching you you tackling the more “impossible” projects. Really enjoy the videos where you beat on seized engines and get them working! This is great too but it was always gonna start- some of the stuff you’ve got running in the past is truly a work of a mad man and I love it!

Love the old six cyl. engines. Had a few in my older cars and lasted forever. Thx.

Such a pretty truck!

my 79 had one of those straight 6 engines in it loyal little engine never EVER failed to start

Nice to see it running...

I enjoy this videos and learn as well. 👍👍

Man I’d love to have that ol truck.

love that front end

glad to see another video keep em comin !

Give it to me and it will. I had a 69 6 cyl in Fla and a 69 Ex Forest Ranger truck for years, followed by my 72....and it is a beaut

Hell yeah! That thing runs turns and drives a treat! She's skook as frig bud! Bring 'er around to Horton's for a box of crullers and a double-double, eh?

Excellent, Jennings few more details could be a daily driver~ Love my old Chevy trucks, bought a 66 with a messed up impala engine in it, and rather than mess with the exhaust manifolds, ran with another 400 "rebuilt" from the junkyard, repainted and loved the three speed with the EL extra-low so a farmer could pull his plow~ anyways tortured that thing by putting three tons of roofing material onward the dump~ when we got back from three days of driving from CA to WI the main crank was loose and wobblin, sold it for 500, the exact same price I paid, but surely painted inside and out, seat was okay, and needed nothing~ but got 15 years out of that ole truck~ at oakland airport had the license plate stolen and 3 stereos were stolen during the night over the years~ will take manual shift over automatic any day of the week~.....a Heavy-duty clutch does nothing but cause leg cramps, and High capacity oil pumps are the source of your oil leaks~ am crippled now, but truly adore your spirit~

That be a sweet truck to restore it deserves it

seeing her up & running brings back memory's I had her sister in 76 she was a pretty good pickup it was a V8 Chevy had some good ones then Good Job
