All things considered, it was idling surprisingly smoothly once you got it running... I was genuinely amazed, I'd definitely vote for getting that old work horse back into show condition, it deserves it just for surviving this long.

Heck yeah get it driving.

Definitely a vote to get it driving again! Maybe even see how it handles a few yards of dirt in the dump bed. It's too nice and deserves to work again!

All classics should be saved and put back on the road, I wish I had the money to get them shipped over to the UK.

Unfreaking believable that you got that oldie running with all that sketchy wires. Just goes to show how unstoppable those Dodge flathead six engines were. Basically the same engine from the 1930s almost to the 1960s

I'm not a Dodge fan but that truck is absolutely beautiful, and it seems to run so nicely it would be well worth getting it back on the road 👍☮️

I'd love to see it driving again!

My Dad had a 1953 Dodge for his cherry and apple orchard when I was a kid. I distinctly remember the no radio/no heater option. Also, the vacuum wipers that were almost useless unless you let up on the gas. The good old days!

Awesome that that ole truck started up with little work. Love to see you get that truck mobile again. It’s a piece of history and would be so cool to see someone driving it down the road again!

Love your videos. There's a simple pleasure in seeing vehicles long abandoned spring back to life under the care of skilled hands.

Its really cool hearing those old engines come back to life. Nice work getting it going again. you should definately keep working on it to put it back on the road ,even just having a cool old work truck floating around to play with.

Please do more “will it run” videos. They are my favorite. I have watched every single one of your “will it run” videos on your channel. My favorite so far is the truck that you drove around in the field that was all rotted out.

BY ALL MEANS....GET HER RUNNING!! I'D LOVE TO SEE A VIDEO SERIES ON THIS TRUCK!!~!!

Get her running! Love these videos. Thank you for sharing.

Keep working! Cheers. My grandparents had several business Dodge trucks in the 50s. I have fond memories of riding in them. I occasionally think I need one. I can get buy without pretty.

Nice to see you let the engine run without full throttling it, these old engines that’s stood for so long need time to let the oil get around the inside bearing and valves

love seeing videos of huge old dump trucks getting a good fix! love your stuff man :)

Just now ran across this video. That's definitely one of the bigger truck engines with that 3 piece exhaust manifold. I imagine it would be hard to find. Bigger than a 265, wich had a one piece exhaust manifold. The biggest they made was 413, but it had dual exhaust and dual carbs and the trucks had a longer hood. Remember seeing one in a pre-1948 dodge that used to be beside the old Young GMC truck dealership in Zanesville Ohio over 45 years ago. I had a 1947 with the same cab but this one had a longer nose, the hood didn't taper and the nose was wider and flatter then mine. I raised one side of the hood and saw the dual carbs and dual exhaust. Biggest old Dodge gas powered truck I ever saw.

Runs like brand new!👍😂😂 LOVE IT!

Amazing that old truck started with those wires to the plugs, with just a little gas and a new battery.

Get it working... please! Love seeing these old trucks brought back to life!

You have a great touch with old engines, never thought these would run again... amazing!

Cool, little bit of work, that ole dodge would be useable again!! GOD BLESS!!!

Get it driving, please!!! I have a half ton pilothouse like that. They are cool trucks. Not too many around anymore. Great videos! Thanks for taking us along.

I learned to drive on a 1952 Dodge Pickup, that brought back some memories. they were similar to the tee. I think that it could be brought back to running down the road capability, and even show you a profit for your investment of money and time.! Some of the older vehicles nowdays are bringing good money. my two cents worth.

Yeah it’s nice to See these old trucks moving again

I have another great show to watch. Great job

What I wouldn't do to own this as a DRIVER !!!! BEAUTIFUL Ole truck !! What a BEAST !!

Yes get it working for a living again, thank you for the great videos. Cheers.

Wish cars were that easy to work on now. Wish I had my old Charger. Back I sold it in 1998. Was a 1971. 318. Good car. I put dual exhaust on it. Run pipes in front of rear tires. Sounded great. Just like a hotrod.

Subscribed, you brought me through the last few very hard days, i thank you my friend! Keep it up and have a good one!

Thanks to share.

Love to see it drive!

Man, I love these videos. Just watched the one with the Chevy stove bolt that sat for 71 years. Good shit 👍

Those bigger trucks commonly have the larger 265 six cyl. I bought one at a estate auction at black rock Ar. Been setting 35 years paid $100 The next day a Sunday we went and installed a 12 volt battery . filed the points. ran a fuel line from a 5 gallon plastic tank to the fuel pump. Fired it up and I drove it home. Flat spotted tires. no brakes except for the emergency brake. No license or insurance. I took the back roads mostly gravel we lived thirty miles away at Ravenden Springs Ar. Still have it cool old rig. 1948 with the extra windows in the cab and has a South Wind gasoline heater !

It's a cool old dump truck! If you can get the parts to repair it (not easy for that year) it seems like it would be a great project! 👍

Thanks for sharing. Would love to see it running.

Yes. Please do it.

Man I love those old trucks! I would love to have one of them.👌😎👍

I love these videos. Something about them is addictive. NEXT! Lol. I believe it's a combination of the accent and ability make an old rust bucket run.

That old truck is a fighter, it wants to live again!

Getter done nice truck

I like that old Dodge, sounds good too. Great video!

I’d love to see more on this old truck!!! They don’t make them like they used to!!

I think you should get it driving. It runs really good & seems to be in pretty good shape. Looking forward to another video on the old Dodge dump truck.

A rare and lucky find. I would love to restore this old truck.

Nice. Happy Motoring.

Love the video.Keep them coming.

Bring it for a spin, it sounds lovely!

Actually runs pretty damn good. Great job man.

This truck deserves a new life, if I had it I would give it the love it needs and use it also

Great Truck!

Nice looking truck…. Love to see it run.

Let’s get er done! Love to see old trucks on the road again!

I would like to see if drive again! I enjoy your videos very much!

Loved that car.

Nice truck and a dump truck too! Rare and get it running and working. Those in line 6 cyl are bullet proof. Used for Army during WW2 into the 60's Should have lots of parts around.

Love the sound of an old engine

Dude love watching you wake these things up, makes me wanna know combustion engines better. Man I'd love to watch her get restored and running. Think theres a market for her?

I saw the flathead and said "they will drive that one out. Those motors are unstoppable.

My stepdad rebuilt the engine on one of those. It's a 58 he's got it running he's got some body work, painting and he's got that old thing all nice and good.

That would be a great truck to get driving again. If it runs like that, imagine with a little love given to it.

1950 dodge dump truck sitting there 30 years need new battery engine is good condition turn over missing headlight front need replacement awesome video friend bless you

Great job!

A great old truck !!!

Welldone.Yes,get it mobile.I had one of these motors in an old ski boat.Couldnt kill it.Used to get the hesd shaved 120 thou for better powet on modern fuel.Ran like a clock!

Overlooked trucks. Likely the best of the big three. She seems basically sound. I would like to see you get her back on the road. Is that the Big Truck Six? I noticed the ram's horn exhaust manifold. I have 3 '50's medium size trucks. Great for on site and local work where 50 mph is all you need. Save this one.

I'm not usually a truck guy but I love this thing and it genuinely looks pretty nice. Would love to see you getting it moving again. As always, great video and nice to see that your quality was always this good

I love it so cool!I got a ol hemi 50,s model it would fit rite in there!

Nice truck, kept it going.

Hell yeah! Get that ol darlin runnin hoss!

Wow 😮 and yes 👍 it would be nice to see it functional again !!

Love this guys channel

You're very knowledgeable for as young as you are. ❤️👍 Great videos 💯

You should try to get a drive shaft

Nothing better than the sound of an old truck running.

Yes! Worth getting it working again and using it around the farm. Best way to recycle

The motor runs surprisingly well! Get her back on the road 👍

I have 2 49 dodge pickups they are rare anymore to see I'm amazed it runs mine were stove up solid . you get her running and driving would be awesome love the vid

Definitely a saver.!👍

Absolutely get it driving bro

Second time watching this! Love the sound of old iron and I admire how you don't give up on these old farts lol forgot to ask did you ever get the old girl driving?
