I spent a summer working at that plant. I remember that truck well, I would stare at it as I cut rebar and built the box culverts out back. It had been sitting 10 years or more when I was there, and that was at least 12 years ago now... awesome to see some memories on here!

I love these old Whites. Back it up to the batching plant and it's ready to go back to work

These old workhorses are sooo cool! Man, if they could talk what kind of stories they could tell!

Heck that thing is rad. I kinda want it to pull a 15 ton trailer. Love these old beasts before the epa ruined trucks.

Awesome White Constructor. Would be a great restoration piece. I'd definitely follow along on this project.

I run a mixer and let me tell you.. most drivers nowadays would rather quit than have to drive a truck that doesn't shift itself. Those guys back then were a tougher breed for sure That old girl wants to live.. really hope she gets restored.

I can’t believe how smooth and smokeless the engine runs

Drove exact type of mixer in Alaska through some mountain roads 26 years ago, like riding on a rock, not even an air ride seat.

Damn, you made it look easy! Awesome rig.

I wouldn't worry about it running away. A good hard flat-out rev is exactly what it needs - you'll be surprised at how fast it clears the rubbish out and gets it idling real smooth after that.

Grandpa had one of these as a tandem dump truck. Was a 555. Cummins and an Allison. I bet that truck bounced into a few things with that long nose and extended bumper!

Wild noise from engine !!! Beast!!! I loved it!!!

Now that’s a real truck, purpose built and it shows. Old mixers are perfect heavy haulers, they already have the suspension and drivetrain all a person needs is a Big Cam or a 3406 sitting around and voila you have one mean low boy dragging beast. They don’t have to be fast or go far either, just the ability to pull 250 k lbs.

If you're going to bring an old truck back to life you need to replace all the essential fluids, examine the fuel injectors, check the air filter, and open up the power switch box in the engine to see if the power switches are still good.

That was probably the most smoke I've seen on a first start! Awesome!

Nice running engine. Great job to get her going.

Simply amazing!!! I rerallly enjoy these types of videos!!

Really nice to hear that gem run again. Good job.

Great video.That truck is amazing.

Hi TipTop, That oll truck was waiting on you coming along to save her, now you have woken her up she needs taken home and all fixed up , hope you have a big workshop and time id love to see her in all her glory paint tires an all oh an mind some New Diesel please Stan Edinburgh Scotland.

Fantastic truck!

Cool old truck!

Great work man thats badass

O-H-I-O Porter greetings 🇺🇸 Well, this old White sure had some tough looks about it!! I’m glad it didn’t have water in the motor & transmission. That old Cummins really wanted to come back to life! Even the floorboard wasn’t too bad, from the video anyway. I even liked the old Jake Brakes & shocked that they worked. You just never know. I will have to check to see what all you have done with it. Love old trucks & know that they can be a bear when trying to drive them out of the graveyard or even onto a trailer. What are your plans for it? This truck seems to have much more potential now. Not everyone likes to even mess with these old trucks after they’ve been sitting a long time. Blessings my friend. 🤩🥰✌️

New SUBSCRIBER here AWESOME rig, amazing job

That was awesome!!! Thanks!!!

She sounds like a beast for sitting for 25 years

That's an ugly word "SCRAP", this truck is worthy of a restoration this is good iron.

That's when trucks WERE TRUCKS, they were masculine , tough , clumsy, & my favorite, simple & not environmentally friendly

Very awesome Ole mixer you gained a new sub

LOL at @9:42 I guess whoever drove it last forgot to turn the "fogger mode" off before they parked it! She really sprayed you good

Beautiful trucks ❤❤❤❤❤

There should be a sticker on the window to show when it was last on the road. Probably was on the missing window. lol!

thank you very much for good entertainment.👍🤗👍🇸🇯

Good 👍🏻 job

Absolutely wonderful first start and drive, it doesn’t get any better. What are the plans for it?

I shore she old. And not kill old girls. I say with the open hatch on the bowl. There was something that went wrong. And conrete went of. Gear box or PTO. Bit engine sounds beautiful. Mick Australia 🇦🇺 God bless mate. 9.30 into the video

i like your videos but never worry about oil use the dip stick.

Put the hatch back on the drum and back it under the plant theres 8 yards waiting on you.

The Catalina Wine mixer II

Must be his first time driving stick shift 😂😂😂

Wow,....that truck doesn't want to throw in the towel just yet.

Save it and remove the mixer body but add a flatbed in the rear and it would be a good truck.

Amazing wow

The bowl is hydraulic So the girl got used for a long time. That area was expecting a chain bowl........

As others have said, you made this look easy. I’ve been unable to get a 2000 Isuzu FTR Turbodiesel running after it only sat two years! Does new diesel go bad that fast? Any tips? I’d hire you in a heartbeat to get it going if you were here in the Austin Texas area.

Is it going to be restored or something if not is it for sale would like to see something good for it service over the years. thanks

There you go get yourself in the ready mix business 😂

Any diesel engine as the desire to loose its mind ... Detroit an GMC took a stabe at making there own an its a 50-50 split .... some hate it some love it... Great video 👍👍👍👍

Didn't Autocar also have a 'Construcktor' model?

Hope you found that wrench that looked like it fell into the works and got flung out at around 15:07 - hit the fan?

what is that constant engine noise?

Wish you would have turned your pick up off so we could hear that awesome Cummins by it self

Is that a front brake limiting switch on the dash I see?? I miss driving stuff like that.

Mechanical trucks will last forever, modern electronic based trucks will only work for 30 years

of course it will start.it's a diesel

Don't rip that mixer body off of it! If you do let me know I'll take it off your hands

what year is that truck? Thanks for posting and take care

What’s the plan for it?

You never go to start a Diesel without Ether

White Constructor Concrete truck.

White Constructor! I need it, where is it??

1950-1987 white autocar

Where is the smoke?

جميل

Вапьще пушка😂

Cummins do not runaway like GMS.

um nice um truck um

♥️♥️♥️👍🇮🇩

now what ?

Are you in the concrete business

как мне поехать к вам кто поможет хочу работать

Здарова

Блендер😂

It should be ILLEGAL and tantamount to child abuse (or worse) to leave an old, classic, gorgeous truck like this to rot. Shame on whomever committed this act of savagery! And it is around a 1973 or 1974 with a Cummins 240, I’d hazard a guess…thanks for the video and giving this girl a second date!

Yo this is my Great grandfather's company.

What made u think it had water in it....the hood was closed and theres no carb for water to go down and the trans...never heard of water in a transmission before....i hope u had a bucket under those drain plugs

🤣🤣🤣🤣💪😎
