- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 ก.พ. 2024
- I purchased this 1934 Chevrolet truck a couple of years ago locally on Facebook Marketplace. Let's pull it into the shop and see if we can get it running for the first time in many years! If you'd like to own the truck, as shown in the video, it can be yours for $1,000 USD. As always, thanks for watching!

So im kinda lost what is your channel? Is it a flip it channel? Is it a will it run chanell? Is it a junk your chanell? Is it a talking channell? Idk im lost
Jack of all trades. Master of none.
@@MortskeRepair it’s the best channel with the best Dog !
TH-cam is HARD
at least he's right on one thing, He's lost.
Start by learning how to spell, then take it from there.
Rumor has it Duff's great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-grandfather chased that truck once!
Absolutely hilarious..........and probably true!
Rode in it no doubt!
It's bad for any dog to chase cars. Myself I CANT STAND IT!!
That "grandfather" joke was GREAT! 😝 Sorry…couldn't resist! 😜
😂that's gold most likely lifted his leg on the ties to mark his territory
I found myself shocked, with all the things that Mortske has bought at swap meets and auctions for these 30's models. He doesn't have a hand crank for them?
I love these videos, please don't ever stop being you.
Amen brother! I love this channel.
Of course I found several of them this weekend...
@@MortskeRepair LMAO, I always have the same luck. Look for something you know you have 10 of and can't find any of them until you don't really need it anymore....
It is like trying find a 10.mm socket and after buying a new one to get it done, end up finding 2 of them rolling around in the car when you test drive it.
@@MortskeRepairyou always find things when you don't need them anymore.
Mojo is a national treasure. He needs to be protected.
And a Raise
agreed!
I've been fixing up a 1936 Chevy high cab half ton. What's really fun is the hood sides vary between 34, 35, and 36 and the entire front sheet metal (fenders, hood grill) of 1936 is one year only. Also for 1936 the high cab was wood structured and then half way through the year they revamped the cab to the low cab which was all steel. So 1934, 35 and half of 1936 were high cabs wood structured, until the low cab was released with all steel. Then in 1937 Chevy redesigned the whole truck cab and sheet metal again!
Cool
Thanks for the info!
The bed box has a very nice aesthetic. Tube frame the cab and get some better fenders and you can bring it to Mecum 30k easy in this market. 😂
“I’ll follow you!”
Had me ROLLING!😂
Congrats! I didn’t think it was going to pop off.
Sometimes you can put rope in the cylinders to break the valves loose. I'm glad to see Mojos back .
My grandfather taught me that.
I received my beanie my Screwed by Mortske magnetic screwdriver and 5 packs of the Low Life match books last week. Super sweet, extra fast on the shipping (it was a little order, but still it went right out!!) Thank you Mortske, I'm super glad to have bought some gear from you to support what you do.. I have YT premium so I don't have to watch ads, but I know that's not enough. I do try to support ALL the guys (and gals) I watch on here but it's tough in the U S of A right now, times are very tight.. but I'm more than happy to have this super nice ultra high quality merchandise!! Thank you Mortske and everyone who supports you. I LOVE the beanie, it is SO soft and comfy and it fits my big head so.. yeah.. it's great!
Thanks for all your support sir!
@@MortskeRepair you're more than welcome! I'm more than happy to see an individual putting in all the hard work to make it in this crazy world today. It may be a while before i can do it again, I really want to show my support to all the creators i follow out here, and plan to do that. Thank you for being a great personality with awesome merch. If i ever get the chance i will buy a super scraper, i just have no use for one at this point in my life.. sadly
Nice 👍!
the only ones not hurting in the usa are either illegal or legal "migrants"
Back when I was a kid. We had a 34 chevy truck and a 37 ford truck. I NEVER turned down a chance to drive the flat head. Seemed like the old chevy was always upon blocks getting the rods tightened up. Thanks Mortske. This one really brought back some memories. I 👍👍
That is a cool old truck! Someone should definitely grab that up!
it could be yours!
@@MortskeRepair I would love to buy it, but no way to get it here right now.
Outstanding job by Duff and Mojo! On prying the drivers door open, it explains why my farm boy buddies always wanted a bar nearby. I thought it was for refreshments.
multi use!
Thanks! My grain truck was a 34 Ford 1 1/4 ton and all wood was gone. It was about the same condition!
much appreciated!
Blow by or not, that made me so happy there when she came to life. I love this stuff! I hope Mojo is feeling better than last week.
Glad you enjoyed it!
My dad was born in 1934, he too will be 90 this year,blessed to still have him. It's a great video, thank you.
You're very welcome
Another excellent adventure from the one and only Mr. Mortske! Just the greatest 🙂♥️
Are you really considering working on this old Chevy truck?
Pretty incredible, always enjoy seeing the older ones breathing again, and all the history that comes with them.
Glad you enjoyed it!
My Dad was born in 37 My Mom was born in 39 so for some reason I realy pay attention to those!😊
Mortske, just a thought. Maybe try squirting some STP stop smoke in the cylinders in the future when you have little to no compression. It’s so thick it should stick to the rings like molasses at least while cranking, then hopefully the rings will loosen up once it’s running and building heat. Best idea I can think of for “compression in a can.”
I like this idea.
I like that new banner for Lug Nut Guys , my nickname when i was working at the tire shops was Nut Twister ! Lol
oh boy!
Pretty cool truck glad you got it going nice job Sir ! Good to see Mojo over the sickness ! Take care Duff, Mojo, & Sir !
Thanks much!
It Runs! Sounds like she could use an engine rebuild. Thanks for all the work on getting it going. Mojo saved the day!
You bet!
It’s Mortske Monday, great video. Thank you for another great Monday. Enjoyed the 1934 Truck from you and Duff.Have great week.
same to you!
Needed a Jennings Motor Sports collaboration on this one!
I love my Mortske fix, cars, dog, and Americana.
Keep doing the talkie fixy stuff, it rocks
Lmao, I even yelled out woooohoooo when she fired up! Nice work sir Morticus!
Thanks!
Early in the 1939 movie “The Grapes of Wrath” two men are looking at a repaired tire. “Do you think it’ll make it to California?” one asks. “If it does it’d be a miracle right out of Scripture.”
Classic!
I've found that marvel mystery oil is good stuff. Just using it in fuel as directed worked way better at cleaning up, lubricating sticky valves and everything else way better than Berryman. Might just boost compression a bit too.
Mortske your historical engineering knowledge never ceases to surprise me ! So cool to hear that yard art Chev fire up. Couldn't believe it idled with leaking compression coming from everywhere. Theres a co-op in Nebraska that carries tires for that truck. Thanks for another vid to watch on a Monday afternoon. Cheers Man ! 🍺🤛😎👍
Glad you enjoy them!
@@MortskeRepair I think in 34 they still used "Whale Oil" in those road flares ! 🤭👍
@@Awsom47Merc dang!
Yard Art would be a great name for the old girl.
Holy cow I can’t believe ya got it running that is awesome! Your persistence and hard work paid off. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the kind words!
I'd really love to have a 47-53 GMC grain bed truck, update it, and build a camper on back and take trips with it
You and me both! I've been looking for awhile now. I found one I was going to buy and then the guy changed his mind. 😕
Yeah, they're tough to find now, and not cheap when you do
Mojo was just agreeing with you. Backnin the old days they feed cotton rope in spark plug hole. Then used piston and rope to hold valves shut. They were cheap back then and only had hand pumps 😅🤣😂
That is really slick how you have that old Chevy pushin that Ford wrecker around Great video as usual
Bahaha!
It’s too bad they rot because they really are nice looking!
Oh boy, you can’t beat an old straight six!
Keep up the good work 👌🏼
Definitely had style!
You don't need to apologize for anything. Your car, your shop and your channel. You need to do what's good and right for you. Looking forward to seeing this "A" getting done.
I really like watching your videos you don't hide the sounds from the shop like most of them do it's like being in a natural working shop really makes it better
Appreciate the feedback
Gotta love the smooth idle as it's blowing smoke out of everywhere it can.
Been watching you since I saw your 454 tow truck about 2 years ago got me motivated to start a resto mod on my 72 xb falcon ute
Appreciate it!
On first inspection I did'nt hold much hope for the Chev , but I knew that your stick with it attitude would prove me wrong . Never place a bet no matter what the vehicle looks or sounds like because your sure to lose against Mortske . Thank you for an interesting and educational Monday , it was just what I needed to spark up the week ahead . Till next time, Stuart in Canada ..
Thanks for watching!
Thanks to Professor Mortske and Teacher Assistant Duff, the 1930’s era vehicles are like a classroom. Now watching the old Warner Bros. Bogart and Cagney movies, I can pick out the makes and models.
Thanks Doc Mortske. Love the Duff!
Our pleasure
@ihap I believe you have that backwards. Professor Duff assistant Morticus. LOL
Sweet truck! Good job getting it to run! As always thank you for taking us along.
Love Bernie ! You can't beat him. Mojo's a great addition to the shop.
Absolutely
1:45:00 I think ol Mortske amazed himself with this one 😂😂 Ole pull start method
Those road flares are really cool. I've never seen those before. The old truck is in really good shape considering
how old it is. The clean oil was a big surprise.
Thosee safety flares are what we used to call smudge pots. Fill with kerosene or lamp oil even desiel fuel. Gas was a bit risky. Ones that size will proabably butn 4 to 6 hours. The larger round pot last about ttwice as long.
Old girl seen better days. Love'sss to Duff. WHERE THE HELL IS THE SNOW!?
Mild winter
Now that was fun! The exhaust with the added weight reduction 😜 sounds just excellent! In the words from back then, it still runs like a demon Love it!
That 1934 ChevyTruck will be a work in progress for quite awhile. Congratulations on the start. Did have a few doubts. But, determination made it go. Thanks Mortske !
💯👍👊
At 1:01:38. Rope trick, like what we use on small airplane engines to hold the valve seated.
The first RTV silicone I remember buying retail was Dow tub and tile caulk in the early 70s, so that might be a hint about when it last ran, or at least when the driver window was glued in place. No idea of when the first automotive RTV was sold.
Some energetic person could take the truck, put it on a late model frame with an upgraded engine and drive train and build a tiny home on back.
Hello Mortske and everyone. My first car was a 1961 Morris Oxford wagon. It had a crank. If it wouldn't start in - 30 or colder weather by the key I would use the crank. It would start by cranking it.
Thanks for sharing!
I absolutely love these videos you do bringing back the dead like Frankenstein 😂 keep’em comin Mortske! 😁👏🏻
Will do
Thanks for the Mortske Monday adventure! Many thanks to everyone involved 🐾🍺
Our pleasure Stu!
I got a starter and a carb and a generator that would fit your old truck and I got the crank..them starters are tuff what wore them out was putting 12 volts to them 8 volts made them spin fast and didn't hurt the starter or light bulbs .
That long 9/16 socket you have IS a spark plug socket. It’s used on the Ford 3V motors (5.4 and the few 4.6 ones they made). They have those “break away” plugs and that’s the socket you have to use for them because they are longer than a normal spark plug.
Ugh, those plugs give me nightmares.
@@MortskeRepair as a veteran mechanic of 25 years, I understand your pain. They even put them in the 6.2 gassers for a brief period but weren’t nowhere near as bad
That is probably about the most fun I've ever had watching. Just wish it was me in the driver's seat. Oh yeah!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Another job well done! Great thinking getting those valves unstuck. Thanks! Never miss any videos!
I’m the owner of a stock 1934 Chevy Master 1/2 ton Pickup similar to this one with a 207 ci stovebolt. I’m glad that someone finally made a TH-cam video thoroughly going over the truck since there’s not much on TH-cam when it comes to these gorgeous high cabs.
Right on
That's when things were built right. What a machine. Thanks 👍
You got that right!
Hey Mortske👋, ran when parked 😊. Very cool video Mortske. You had a win with this one. Have a great week ahead👍
Same to you!
Read up on adjusting the valves in that old chevy and the 216 it went by the oil temperature not water temp when the oil is heated to the right temp all the expansion in the rockers and assembly is done if you set the gap at the wrong temp the gap will be off and you do haft to do these with a feeler guage I got a 36 chevy and a 47 and that's how the book tells me to do mine..I thought it was done like you said to do them too but when I went to see what the gap was I found out about the oil temp thing..I just thought you might like to know that.take care keep up the good work and take care of duff.
Thanks for the info!
Mortske, you need to put that ole truck back in the road, no matter what you have to do, to do it. It really wants and deserves to live!!!
This was a most excellent Monday Morning with Mortske and Duff and the 34 Chevy stake bed , tow started but it runs my neighbor had a 32 chevy pickup it was a woods and field runner you couldn't kill it ,Monday Mornings with Mortske brings me back in time to my child Hood in the 50s good times ,The More you Know
Nothing as good as having an old mechanic around when you're working on an old vehicle.
Pretty amazing that after all these years she fired up. Awesome work. Hopefully someone builds something out of it.
Something about those 6 bangers they always run forever!
You worked hard for that one. Thanks again for sharing
That good 'ol truck is only 20 years older than me... Shee-it... And good advice, btw. Never crank an engine dry. Have a sammich first... Seriously enjoyed that one, pal. Thanks.🥴🇬🇧👍
lol!
That’s freakin awesome. Can’t believe that thing popped off. That’s why this is one of the best on the tube. Always great content.
Much appreciated
Mortske buddy missed opportunity to use Tommy boy clip. Remember if there's no guarantee/warranty on the box people won't trust them. Makes us feel warm and fuzzy inside 🤣😅😂
Classic!
@@MortskeRepair it is
Good morning from Cape Cod 🦈 the fact that those road flairs are still in the truck is unbelievable. You certainly went above and beyond to get that old girl running, drag around down to your buddies house, back to the shop and whammy off she goes 😂 that was really awesome. I'm glad you got to have some fun with starters also 😉 it's good to see mojo back in action. You guys keep up the great work and the awesome content 👍✌️🇺🇲
I'm 20 miles West of wistah!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I heard it running the 1st time you pulled it with MOJO!! Lmfao all those old engines will fire off as long as they turn over!!😂😂 good job
Oh man, I'm looking forward to this one!! Will watch tonight. Working in the shop at the moment. Love the old truck stuff!!
Patina plus, as puddin would say. Good morning Mortske and your mighty dog Duff.
By far one of my favourite uploads , what a cool ol truck !!! The engine sounds so awesome, thanks for sharing with us Mortzke , you guys ROCK !!! . Cheers 🇨🇦
Glad you enjoyed it
I’ll be putting a video up soon on my 48 3600. I hope I can make it as fun to watch as this. Awesome job. You inspire me!
Glad to hear it!
Awesome to hear that old girl runnin! 👍😎 Hopes were fading fast, i must say. And it's good to see Mojo back!! 👍👍 Thanks for sharing, and good job, Mort!!
Our pleasure!
This was a good one, love these old revivals!
Those bluetooth gaskets are the envy of every auto enthusiast!
No doubt
Congratulations Mortske. Getting that engine to run was epic. Thanks for your hard work and knowledge.
Much appreciated!
Nice to have a Mortske video to watch, as always.
I love the things you do , from almost new to direct from the Ark and under impossible circumstances you bring them back from the grave . thank you for the suspense and laughter as you resurrect these mechanical misfits , keep up the good work , sa always , Stuart in Canada ..
Thank you kindly!
You never cease to amaze me brother. If there is a will you have the way. Good job yet again.
Thanks for the kind words!
After seeing the (no) compression check, I wouldn't have given it 1% chance of firing - much less running. I couldn't believe it - or how persistently you continued to work on that beast. My hat's off to you!
Much appreciated
Thanks for all the excellent videos, they educate and calm me.
Glad you like them!
Amazing how similar these trucks are through the years. Amazing engineering early on designing all of the components for these vehicles. Pretty cool seeing this old truck! Great tips and tricks as I watch your videos. Nice job mortske!
Thank you much!
Hi Morski nice video 📹 and workmanship!!! Glad you got that Old 18 Year Old Old Spice Stud Moving He was shaking his leg 🦵 😅😅😅😅
Glad i got up to let the dog out good job getting it running
Thanks Mortske, it was great seeing it run again!
Any time!
I got so excited when that thing started running! You did it! Never doubted you! Let’s do something to that beautiful Cadillac!
Much appreciated!
Monday morning it's time for Mortske Repair awesome video love the truck. Classic Mortske that starter gotta come off LOL.
Happy Monday Mortske!
Mortske, you are a madman! Love this truck and the video! Awesome work, as always!
Thanks again!
You have love them old trucks
How Mo Jo feels
Hope all is good
I'm not a Ford man by any means but Dang that Bernie is one fine machine!!! I would be proud to own him.
Sure is
Been trying for a year..1 inch super scraper always sold out. SS2 didn't know you had...sold out.... maybe someday. Anyway love the stove bolt 6.
They go quick!
Nice find! Definitely Jed Clampett-approved. Thanks for sharing.
I have never realized there was a high cab and a low cab, but now that you say it I’m with you on the cab look
The more you know!
🗿💨 if my son and myself lived nearby, my backyard would be full of mortske content. This old truck should be someone's rat rod project, imo.👍 Thanks for sharing Mortske
Great revival, keep her original,great patina, thanks for sharing 👍💨💨
Great video Mortske it was great to see Duff and Mojo
Very impressive! After all those years.
26:00 Don'tcha love that Dr. Pepper fragrance of Kroil? Bernie is in trouble. This would make a killer wrecker.
I was just thinking that! Lol
