International Harvester Necromancer.
The goal of this channel is to save as many old International trucks built between 1934-1960 as possible. While I'm limited in the number of trucks I personally can save, I aim to show you not only how to revive the originally drivetrains, but also how to keep them running correctly. My truck rescues are some of the most elaborate out there.

The Junkyard Tractor (Part 1) - Bringing A 1951 Farmall M Back To Life
If you know me, you know I love old Farmall tractors and the M is king! Follow along as I go through this 1951 Farmall M (that I found in the junkyard) and get it back into working condition.
Due to the need for further repair, parts and machining, this first video covers a basic overview of the tractor, a first start (in its junkyard condition), the parts that will be going into it, the challenges involved in finding a crack-free cylinder head and a brief walk-around of the tractor.
Here's an honest question for all my subscribers: Normally I set up my videos to release as "premieres". I was mistaken in thinking this was the only way to schedule releases- FYI all my new videos now release at 6:30pm CST EVERY THURSDAY. Some folks have commented that setting up the videos as a premiere will send you, as subscribers, annoying alerts and notifications? Please let me know if this is the case, I was completely unaware of this end of it. I am under the impression that a "premiere" boosts standing in TH-cam's algorithm and so I've been doing that to help my videos get as much traction as possible, since it's easy to get lost in the shuffle. Please let me know your experiences with this, either as video creators or viewers.

Hey man I just wanted to say I'm a welder I have been for the last 10 years or so and when you said that you have ugly welds I don't know what you're talking about I think that you did an amazing job
Great that I found your videos.
@@randyroy4074 glad to have you along!
Seems like we’re like minded. I’ve got half a dozen old Cubs as well as a Super A I mow with. Sold a Super C with fast hitch implement ms my dad and I redid before he passed. Working on a 57 Chevy 3600 NAPCO 4x4 as we speak. I grew up on the Texas Gulf Coast near Port Lavaca. Everything is gone from down there. I lived near Leander now. Where’s the tractor yard at?
The one grain truck in the museum was one (like it) I would have driven
I’m still wondering what the issue was with the brakes dragging…
Just a short thank you for the tractor video. First tractor my Dad bought after WWII was an M. I remember riding with him on his lap. I was between his arms and the steering wheel. He didn't have a pickup, so he'd use the tractor to drive around the farm doing chores. He'd put a canvas heat houser on in winter. It was pretty toasty once the tractor warmed up. Good memories! Thanks for reminding me!
@@marionstorm9004 there’s a lot more tractor videos coming!
Park a new Chevy and in a month the rust will keep you up at night, this thing has surface rust after a million years in the trees.
That's called a fusible link, you can probably find them at any auto electrical store, great saves, they remind me of my uncle's M that sat in his barn for decades, think it was my grandfather's and it's little cousin the B
That is soooo cool
i,ve got a 1957 international s-120 4 wd got from our old ranch in texas ; still runs; great old truck.
@@terryravey2248 I used to have a S-120 4x4- I agree! Great trucks!
Dammit Man what a place.
@@jamesmoser7948 Yeah, it’s pretty mind-blowing!!
That's a very nice collection.
We had a 40's-50's Farmall tractor when I was a kid and I seriously can't remember clearly if it was a C, M or H. And out of all the pictures I took as a kid, and there were hundreds, I don't have 1 of that tractor. I may have taken 1 of my brother driving it the day he didn't follow the rule to not wrap your thumbs around the steering wheel and he hit a rock. Just about dislocated his thumbs. He didn't need to be warned after that.
Thanks for the video. I’m curious about how that push button excites the alternator. Also wondering if H models share some of the same parts with the M. Also are you driving Claudette to the rally?
Excellent video :) yes do lots stuff your dad both enjoyed together I know when my late dad around we did lots together too but he passed away in 2017 ! I did lots stuff farming with years ago what he had with his brother ran many years ago and they ran McCormick International tractor and yes remember one neighborhood neighbor farmer had 9 speed on Farmall tractor to ! Yes like old tractor tp and lots fun too!
What about a DT 350 or DT 466m would be more appropriate than a Cummings 12 valve. Don't know if you have the room for a powerstroke.
There’s a tool that is essentially a hot glue gun and some molds that is designed to make sealed/molded splices like the one you showed a little before 23 minutes! Can’t remember what they’re called but I bet if you google “hot glue gun wire connector tool” I bet you can find it. Another great video as usual!
@@gabecrockett6574 oh cool, I’ll look it up!
Great vid, great story and pic at the end.
Lazy bastards put the cover back on it’s not hard people. It’s devastating when you need a certain part and somebody left it opened and ruined perfectly good parts.
I agree completely.
Great video! I watch every one you post.
Hey, thank you!
Awesome truck!
What you said at the beginning is one of the things that make your channel so great , the "L122 Coleman conversion is your daily driver " , Thanks your videos are great !!!
I need to know where this paradise is located. I would love to peruse this property for potential treasures!
Watch out with different front/rear tire/wheel diameters. If overall front and rear diameters are not the same they can cause the transfer case to bind. I had just worn tread in front and new tread in the back of my K10 blazer (maybe 3/4 inch or so difference is all) and the transfer case did not like it! Killer truck you have!
Sounds like a worn out detent , detent spring or shift rail in the tractor transmission. Willys Jeeps have that problem with jumping out of second gear when detent spring or detents wear out on the synchronizer ring for second and third gear.
@@SecondWindMechanical yeah, I was thinking it might a worn or bent shift rail. I don’t believe this critter has detents.
Your flatbed needed more red tractor parts on its return trip.
@@glenncourtney4876 couldn’t agree more. Got a video coming up this month with plenty more coming home.
just installed my rear window without a hitch. Great advice for this novice.
@@skidwell41 man, that makes my day to know it helped ya!
I've always wanted a KB-2 or KB-5. Our relatives used to have and international dealership
@@needsaride15126 I need to do more videos about my KB-2. They’re great trucks.
We had a KB-2 and KB-5 on a relatives farm. My aunt/uncle had a dealership many years ago. The trucks would get shipped to Pittsburgh PA. Then stored in a building there until shipped out to the dealership.
Super video greetings from Belgium europe 👍💪👍
Good video. I have a question for you. Did I see rubber between the long channel and frame? I am restoring a KB-3 with a stake bed. Bed sits on two long 3x8 oak boards. Not reusable. I plan to replace with channel like you have.
@@ruhtra-k there’s no rubber, but it’s common to put wood strips in there to prevent rubbing and allow some shifting. That why it’s so common to use u-bolts to clamp a flatbed on: it prevents frame cracking and stress by allowing the bed to shift slightly under pressure, more than bolts will allow.
Coleman made these awesome offset Cab versions that carried Quickway Cranes, that you showed, I wish I could find one, they made a Million of em during the War, with a PTO Winch in front ,
Nice unit I just don’t have the spine to ride one ! Two spinal surgeries I have 79 bronco I am working on . Amazing that there parts for those old binders I am on the Canadian prairie and see them a lot on the farms , Saskatchewan has them too
@@doubleduty1703 western Canada is an IH goldmine! I have a video a few back of a trip I took to Alberta to grab an IH bed.
WOW blast from the past label on truck Paul M Smith Chico Ca.
@@johnmcmaster8995 yeah! I’ll be diving into that deeper in an upcoming video!
@@BareKnuckleBinder right on
Great video! Thanks for taking the time to make it. Loved the junkyard!
@@dustcommander100 thanks for taking the time to watch it!
How did you figure out to use motor oil on the flat deck, amazing video, loved the tractor yard
When I was a kid all the old farmers used motor oil to treat the base of wooden corner posts on the fence line and on any wooden uprights for sheds that went in the ground. Turns out it works great for trailer decking and flatbeds. With heavier oils you’d want to dilute it diesel or turpentine, but my wife and my mom both drive Subarus that use 0w20. It’s thin enough that those super dry oak boards soaked it up almost as fast as I could brush it on. I probably ended up putting on 7 coats!
Will you have a handle do I have a done
I didn’t understand that?
I’ve got a 56 IH 4x4, considered selling it recently, but boy this is inspiring and I probably won’t now
Very Cool!! Loved to see the junkyard... I need to find a place like that for cub implements and H parts. Hopefully for an A, B, C, and M someday!
You can never have too many
I truly enjoyed watching this video. It was so cool to experience "driving" your awesome truck to the junkyard. I can't imagine how rewarding this must be for you to have your childhood dream truck have a flatbed on it. You did a great job with it. I love "junk" too, so I was in hog heaven riding along! thank you!
There is a R140 in terryville Connecticut, about 50 miles from me. 2500$ but it's pretty rough.
@@DwayneRouthierJr yeah, I’ve seen it. Cool truck all the same.
@@BareKnuckleBinder indeed.
Awesome seeing the truck put to work! Also I love seeing people exploring junkyards. Great video.
@@skimboards4life865 thanks!
What a cool old beast to have bought that young and keep! I've had my S120 since I was 19 (37 years now)... Keep up the great old truck work!
I love seeing people use old trucks and tractors. I use to run Oliver Cletrac.
Love old Olivers! My dad has a 550 that’s been in our family for three generations.
@@BareKnuckleBinder Awesome I had a couple of the Hg Oc3s with the steering wheels dropped a 289 Studebaker motor in one of them.
I love that you are saving these old trucks. I live in Michigan and if you can find them, they are normally so rusted.
@@patricksydlik1893 yeah, growing up in Wisconsin I know the drill. We lost the IH I learned to drive in to rust, there was just nothing left to repair.
Sorry to hear about your Dad and the passing of your good friend. Thanks for taking us along. I am somewhat of a IH collector. I have a 1948 KB-5 flatbed, that I want to haul my IH Mod.AV, The KB-5 is missing some of the grill, got one? I also have my Dads IH 140, and to Cubs. I also have 7 IH Cub Cadet garden tractors, and also 4 IH Scout 80’s , which all need restoration. This does not include the couple John Deere’s and the David Bradley’s, Yeap the junk yards will get you.
Awesome video, you touched on a lot of things I could relate too. Great job on the flatbed also. I think we've all had older friends who we learned a lot from. Interesting to talk to, friends who were willing to help with any project we had and we helped them with their projects.
Thanks for taking us on a road trip to the junkyard. How many miles was it to that junkyard? Hope you make a video of what’s in that tool box. I love that kind of stuff.
It was about 16 miles or so to the junkyard, but the truck only goes about 40mph so it seems a lot longer! Unfortunately I already emptied the toolbox, not too much in the way of treasures but the farmer had an entire hardware store's supply-worth of cotter pins.
That truck is AWESOME!
@@cablecallen yeah, I found it when I was 14 and thought it was just the coolest thing ever. Still feel that way!
Great use of this old beast
Thanks! It's a blast to drive.
