1956 GMC 100 First Start
Here is my 1956 GMC. 248 inline 6 with 3 speed.
Got the beast to fire up today since most likely the 80's.
The video gets cut short at the end because of the wasp attack and I am extremely allergic. I will post more videos as bring this truck back to roadworthy condition.
Thanks for watching
Sorry for the low volume. I forgot to change out the back plate on my GoPro case.
You can hear it better with earphones on.

Here's a video I made for my buddy Mr David since he is selling the truck. This is the final run in the backwoods of Louisiana before the truck gets picked up. He still has a knack for the two sticks even after his recent brain surgery a little over 5 months ago.

This is my truck. It has a BD-264 with a 220 head, a 5 speed tranny, and single speed rear. I got the truck running in August after sitting 35 years in a farmer's pasture. This model was only made for one year and approximately 1,500 were made. It was a road tractor and had a 142 inch wheelbase until the farmer bought it and made it 154 inch wheelbase. I'm slowly working on it and hope to get i...
Talk about a pro shifting the gears! One hand clear thru the wheel and still never misses a gear or jerks back and forth. That’s a pure art.
Real trucker
Le seul endroit où on retrouve du plastique est au plafond de la cabine - pour ne pas se blesser la tête ‘faut croire - pragmatisme
Sounds like he’s from Mississippi
My first truck 72 kw woth 5 and 4 nothing like watching the old guys shift them
Just like me. He has bells palsy. That goes along with all those miles.
He's been a bunch of miles in a truck for sure
I see he has several desired trucks an old long nose international with intricate sleeper.
Is this Guy still alive
Yessir Alive and well.
Love this truck
Nice! 👍👍👍👍👍
It's March 2024. I'm curious to know how he is doing!
That old man can work on it
Bullnose... 🐮😂 Funny u redneck guys... Peace to all tha truckers! ✌️Love u! ❤
My hats off! These are the guys that bring us our commodities. Our food, our blankets to sleep in, our medicines...drinking water. Everything is brought by truck drivers! My deepest respect for you, haulers!
Love the Kenworth.
My uncle ran for Waggoner out of Oklahoma in 56 bull nose. I damn near broke my arm learning to shift that damn truck. God awful faded green color. Miss the "ol bitch" as uncle Bill called her.
Wish I had that much land
I can’t help but watching this video every few weeks. Mr David is as smooth as glass easing in and out on those gears. He drove a real tractor and sounds like the Midnight Rider took good care of him. Thanks again for this video!!
Does anyone know "what's in it"? Thank you.
When all those modern trucks are off the road due to shortage of computer chips. That truck would still be driving.
I am pretty sure we call that - Cab over engine in Australia.
My first memory of my dad driving was going to a cubing plant in Sacramento or Stockton don’t remember which now. It was a cab over Freightliner I think but was a twin stick. That was the most amazing thing I had ever seen. Watching him go through the gears, both hands shifting and his arm going through the steering wheel at the right moment, listening to the Jake slowing us down. Thank you for this memory.
Always wanted to drive twin sticks. Awesome truck.
Great tribute to a man and his machine
I have the same truck a 1955 international R-1700 I can’t find anything on it
We need more info
what a beautiful machine dude
Old Timer still has it
There's so much that can be said about this video I'll just say many thanks for sharing a solid gear jammer with us
Muy buen rrofie and chat Genuine chevrolete

This is a skilled tradesman teamster
I use your youtube videos as my white noise to help me sleep at night. also I am autistic. i like 15 passenger vans, and Airbus A321 aircraft as a hobby. i also like Yamaha stereo equipment.
My neighbor friend's dad was a truck driver and I thought those old trucks were so cool back in the early sixties. I still wish I had driven a big rig for a few years just for the experience. Now I'm too old to try it out.
Where is this old bone yard located?
wow this brings back memories of my dads rigs hauling coil steel as a young boy hed take me with him sometimes but had to stay in the truck when he unloaded and loaded up my first encounter of pissing in a pop bottle at 7 yrs old lol now at 60 yrs old hes been gone since 2006 but watching this video has got me crying and missing him dearly thanks for posting! 🤗👍
Twin sticks and no power steering. That beauty runs great.
@7:09 Reverse was sooo cool. The Master Driver
Well I tell ya the old girl sounds damm good you could still go and work her again nice real truck
My truck is auto with power steer, air con, suspension seat and Bluetooth and I am happy to be called a house wife. Ps, I am not deaf at the end of the day.
Whaaaat......that thing is so freaking cool......it shifts on reverse....😱..
Дикость какая-то с этими двумя кулисами, епта...
without looking at the channel name I clicked on this thinking this guy was the ''essential craftman'' guy
Thanks for the ride M.R David, hate to admit it but I'm two years older than that nice rig of yours.
"Seperates the truck drivers from the house wives"....HAHAHA....what a great line. Got to remember that one. Thank you for posting
He drove that thing the way I drove my '84 K100- left foot flat on the floor, while going up through the gears. I would use the clutch when I downshifted, but almost never while going up. Granted it was just a nine-speed but still, it wasn't a creampuff!
She sounds beautiful.
Ugliest trucks ever, IMO.
