- #classictruckrescue #classictrucks #antiquetrucks Classic Truck Rescue rounds up a truck we bought almost a year ago. Is it a 1955, a 1956, or a '57? We'll get to the bottom of that in this episode.

Great Res-Q there, Rick ! Dan sure is Da=Man ! Loved his /55 Nomad Hah Hoping all's well there, Friends ATB Ter God Bless
Awesome video good luck with your new garage
nice dually!
I enjoy the information on the different attributes to each of the trucks.
just found the channel, excited to see all the things going on: rescues, builds, and the new building. keep on keepin on :)
got here from a suggestion after a 1puglife vid XD
I'm 65 years old, so I was around when most these cars were new. I was brought home as a baby in my Dad's Straight 8, Buick which he always raved about, in fact his later 58 special was a let down to him, but I liked it............ That bus would be hot with the van dweller type people (they have no home they just live in their van or bus) and travel from place to place. .............. You know you read my mind, the trailer has seen a lot of action and it shows it, but hey, if it works, that is what counts. The beauty of it don't make it haul any better. ... When I had my 15 employee machine shop, I'd often beef up trailers, weld D rings to them, etc as I am certified in 3 types of welding, arc, tig, mig and have my Journey man machinist papers, but making parts was where it was at, the papers don't mean much. ......... God Bless
That steering wheel great condition
I think so too! Thanks Fer Watchin' Wesley.
Sweet 55 Indeed,Rick . 😊.👍
All these trucks on that trailer and no winch? Come on Rick. Lol you deserve it.
Sounds like the grille and splash pan was worth the trip! I didn't know the old "west coast" mirrors had visors. Nice to learn. Hey, we were starving for a rescue! Ha Ha!!!!!
hooray for keepin the tree
I subscribed Because I figure any man with a truck that classy,and a wife that pretty has got to be all right,,,,oh and not for nothing a little dog is pretty cool too... Thank you for sharing your videos I wish my wife would put up with my madness like that LOL..
A lot of people replaced swapped out the grills because they didn't like them,& they just had rather have the Chevy Grill.... you're right though the grill makes that old truck it's in really good shape, the doors the hood the fenders except for the spots around the headlights,& that's just minor dents but with the exception of that there is a ton of good parts on the old truck & it was absolutely a good buy as long as you got it right and the old boy you bought it from didn't make you hack an arm off for it LOL
That’s a nice either 1900s-1920s Chevy or fordGreen wooden spoke to Wheel truck in the background next to the gray shed would love to own that
I've got a pair of those west coast mirrors with good glass and they have the visors on them
make a car hauler out of it perfect start for classic hauler
i love what you guys do!!!! i learn alot of history on these old trucks from you! every old truck/vehicle has a history and a story to tell, saving them is awsome! they dont make em like they used to! great vid!
So close! I live in Salem, and have been watching you guys for a few years now!
Great Vid Rick! So glad you save these if even for parts.
EXCELLENT video.
Thank you for the great videos.
Rick, don't forget to properly classify your new finding and group together. Thanks fer D woodland creature. Hi Jamie and Annabbella !!!!.
Good parts and good people! thanks Rick and Jamie
Great episode Rick
Thank you Jim and Thanks Fer Watchin'. -Rick
Thanks for the video! Happy Trails, Doug
Thank you Doug and Thanks Fer Watchin'. -Rick
Nice! I plan on picking up a '58 1-ton with 9 foot bed soon. :D
that would make a good rat rod lowered
55 second series. they made two 55's
good rescue rick and Jamie for putting up with it...
You know as well as I do that Jamie loves this stuff as much as Rick does.
Great video. That was fun👍
Luv those Buicks & that Nash is amazing too your buddy has a sweet shop.
You guys rock !
Dan & you are kids with their toys 😉
Nice filming too 👍👱
Thank you and Thanks Fer Watchin'. -Rick
I remember when you went there before, nice guy with a lot of neat vehicles. Love that old fire truck, wish it could tell some stories.
Get mirrors at a glass shop.
Excellent video right down to the truck inspector general watching the beaver. All the very best bro and family
That guy had a lot of neat stuff. Wish y'all would have shown us closeups of the Model T huckster truck that you can see just to the left at 2 minutes 53 seconds in the video.......it looked pretty cool!
Great vid man still some good parts on the 55
Got a kick out of Anna watching the beaver swim up river! Oh, and yes... Excellent parts truck. You should contact Jim Carter at www.oldchevytrucks.com/ and let him know you have a MINT 1957 grille!!! Jim's shop is across the street from where I buy my groceries :) Funny thing though... I'm a Ford/Dodge Guy, but I truly love your (and Jeff Bradshaw's) videos!
Nice old truck
Thank you and Thanks Fer Watchin'. -Rick
That truck is to nice to part out.
After unloading it today and looking closer, I am inclined to agree with you. Thank you and Thanks Fer Watchin'. -Rick
The beaver looks so content, swimming and doing it's thing, at the end of the video. I wish I had a river running past my house. Running water creates such a good energy field around itself.
Yes it does. The Beaver actually lives in the stream that passes through the center of the property. The river is even better energy. -Rick
That 58 Ford was kool too.
When is the diesel dump truck coming home ? In time for extended road work?
The Nash looks like a hovercraft waiting to go!
Hey Rick..how is the teeth repair coming along? and smoking cessation? You 3 should be proud of your progress..alot of hard work and sweat..tears both sad and of joy..has gotten you pretty far..Keep the Faith strong..peace..Rich
WOW 2 posts in 1 day , thanks ! They roll better with air in the tires ? Automatic trans....damn, otherwise i'd ask how much . Like his music playing in the backround . Nice '59 Ford (ya'll say '58) ....'59 grill . F450 = 1 & a half ton . Please make a video of the shop loads & all that goes with it !
Yep...ya need a Jerr-Dan rollback bed....I am sure you have a cab and chassis in that collection somewhere!
Turns out President Washington didn't chop down a cherry tree either. You are in good company.
(It sounded like Annabella said 56' - at least that is what I thought it sounded like)
A lot of old iron at that place. I would love to own that truck in the lean too. I just can't afford things like that. lil' Annabella jump right up there to inspect as soon as that door opened,lol. God Bless
when you opened the door on the Plymouth fury I could smell it here from Niagara falls ny , a 47 year old mopar has that interior smell , not a bad smell , but if I was blind folded I could tell its an old Plymouth . I have 2 - 1971 dusters #2 & #15 .. I have owned 17
Do you think she would run and what was the year of that blue Plymouth fury.?
Hey Rick love your buddies van is it for sale
The seat in that GMC looks pretty decent. I suspect it's been re-trimmed but if it's original it's amazingly good and suggests this hasn't done many miles over the last 60 years...
Whats he doing with that old chevy brush truck.
He say's in the video
Looks like a 9C1 Caprice cop car sitting there too. I bet a lot of people would be keen on that if it's right and not just a lookalike...
Very cool, Rick.
You said it's a parts truck, but it doesn't look too bad in the video. Is it worth saving? I think a 1-ton with an extended (10ft?) pickup box would be a cool project. Good parts have to come from somewhere, though.
Dan seems like a really good guy, for sure. Loved seeing his toys.
Peace Out, Buddy.
nice
Thank you and Thanks Fer Watchin'. -Rick
Classic truck rescue...... go check out KC paint shops channel his video from yesterday, about selling his old shop he advertises a 58 Apache looks like it’s in good shape
I like that old high top Dodge camper next to his new building. I hope that one's going to get saved as there don't seem to be many early examples of that body shape left now, not really surprising for tradesman vans...
Hey rick! Do u have any squarebodys for sale? I’m looking for one that runs and drives but I don’t care how the bad the rust/rot it
HI RICK AND JAMIE HOW ARE YOU DOING TODAY NICE TRUCK
Should probably replace those ramps at some point, or fix em
peeps love to have classic haulers for local track racing where the dont have to haul 500 miles
I'd like to think that your getting back to doing fairly regular video updates again 😊 but with the construction of your new building looming your obviously going to be really busy with that for a good while but hopefully you'll be able to find time to do quick video updates on your building progression
rickits been awhile since ive been on here but ive been letting people know about ur chanel to see if u could help them with what they need for the trucks they are working on and i dont know if u remember that i told u i had some vegas and u asked if i had a 72 and u know i have three of them
Yes love the bid
Rick is Homer still not in good shape
It makes me think that it was kept in a barn bye how nice the inside is
I'm not sure if you got boomer done yet
Not yet.
10:45 you just dont do that to a chevy nomad, they are rare..
That's what scares me about the fate of the Nash.
Hey rick, found a 59' GMC for sale and it has the "Fleet" front end option with the single headlights and weird looking grille, Researched it a bit and it seems to be a rare option. I mean your a GMC professional what can you tell me about it? Also I can send you the Link to if if your Interested in it! Im just curious about it, Think right now its 1,000$
Yes and no. The "Fleet" option was just what the name suggests. It was a version of GMC trucks made with less chrome, and kind of "Bare-bones" to save costs for companies that needed a lot of trucks for deliveries..etc... so back in the day, they were a dime a dozen and plentiful. On the other hand, they got used until they were worn-out. Also, nobody wanted them because they were less attractive. So they usually got scrapped or were used as donor trucks for more desirable models. So no, they weren't rare because they made a ton of them back in the day....but now I would have to say they ARE rare because so few survived. Hope that helps. Send some photos to rick@classictruckrescue.com Thanks.
Oh ok thank you, I sent you pictures through email!

I would like to find a 53 Chevy pickup don't care bout motor just so#it has trans and rear end
Please get that Nash away from your buddy before he trashes it by repowering or re"styling" it till it's unrecognizable.
He said it wasn't for sale Steve. I can't tell people what to do with what they own...
Oh, I know, Rick, it's just a shame cause that car is so very cool looking as it is, it'd just be a shame to ruin it like he did the 55 Chevy.
I love how that little dog inspects all the trucks.
That's how she earns her allowance. Thanks Fer Watchin' Thomas

rick@classictruckrescue.com
hi
Hi back and Thanks Fer Watchin'. -Rick
Once you build the pole building you can put in an area to paint the trucks. I hate the word PATINA to me suggests to lazy to get it painted or don't care how it looks. If not a finished paint at least a primer coat to keep them from rusting further.
I hear you. I have to agree with you that too many people are just bolting rusty junk together and calling it cool. But on the other hand, if a truck has been well-preserved for 70-years and still has its original paint and all of its original body panels...a good sanding and clear coat will keep it from rusting further. Thanks Fer Watching Lisa. -Rick
The first year of "Hot August Nights" a friend of mine was denied a chance to be in the parade because his 5 year project '48 Chevy truck,which looked and functioned GREAT, was only clad in primer. I felt like they forgot what hot rodding was all about. Back in the early days,it was pretty rare you saw one that was actually painted,because the owners always had more "building" to do and didn't have the money for nice paint. When you finally got your car or truck painted,it was officially finished,and it was time to start a new project. That act really soured my interest in HAN;I still looked at all the nice ($$$$$$$) cars,but was honestly more interested in all the unfinished cars I saw in the parking lot outside the swap meet.
Classic Truck Rescue Not me I want it to look new.
That's exactly the way I feel about "patina" it's an old hot-rodders word that roughly translates into "I'm too lazy to paint it."
You have an awesome collection of trucks.I always enjoy your videos. I know you know your trucks.But here is a link to help you in the future for GMC 1955-59 www.1955gmc.com/1955-59gmcguide.html
