- Finally got some new batteries for the 1973 K100 and gotta see if it will start after sitting for 18 years. My Dad and I have been waiting a long time to see if this truck will start and we are definitely excited to get to work on this truck together. Hope you enjoy seeing this old Iron.

Excellent video brings tears to my eyes
She was just out of prime. Amazed it was able to self prime and fire up. I'd recommend not to get down on that accelerator within second of moving metal that hasn't budged in nearly 20 years!
Beautiful truck ! I hope you plan to keep it.
@@OdySlim thank you!
He needs to learn how to float the gears
can't beat an old cabover with a 17 inch steering wheel! back in the real days of hard work truckin'. Greetings from Michigan.
Definitely! Thanks for watching!
That KW cabover could make an excellent practice vehicle for those who want to become truckers, now that you got it up and running, even though it's missing two exhaust stacks.
It’s not missing we just removed them when we hauled it home because height. Haven’t put them back on yet haha. They’re sitting in the sleeper tho.
Keep the cabover content coming,, love it
Thank you! Will do.
I had to read all the posts to see if anyone else was cringing at the driveline carnage going on. It never occurred to me that just as you don’t
“ let’s see if it starts “ a steam locomotive for instance, it’s come down to that with truck we drove most of our working lives. That starter paid the
price for not priming the fuel pump. I drove my VIT all over NA for 26 years. Put a little bit of air in the seat, and move forward a bit so you can control it. Standard steering requires physical effort. Thanks for posting the video.
Thanks for watching!
Хорошие машины делали в сша. Помню фильм Конвой. Привет из России❤
Big bunk too! That was a steal!
Definitely!
Can anyone say, “Feather duster?!!!!” Great job Josh and Joe 👏👏👏👏👏👏
😂 it might need some dusting haha
Beautiful, just beautiful. Can't wait to see what you do
Thank you! Gotta finish up the 362 first but got plans for it coming this winter.
This truck is in good shape, can't wait to see the ol girl all cleaned up 😎
Definitely! Hoping to get into it after I finish up the 362.
the more I see today the more I say.....
WTF...who's gonna fill our shoes!!!
That truck will make a good container hauler.
Wow I didn’t know that you were in Gardnerville I live in Dayton Nevada you are my neighbor great channel
Awesome! Thanks for watching, and be on the lookout for the Pumpkin King. Should be hitting the road soon!
Nice old truck, it cleaned up really well can’t wait to see what you do with it and the old GMC.
Thank you! We got some ideas comin for them.
Can't get better than that, particularly for that price. What a brilliant result.
Thank you!
Great video...keep working on her. I'd love to see her pull that drop deck flatbed!
Thank you! Hoping to work on it after I get the 362 done.
Tidy looking truck. I do like these old Cabovers.
Thank you!
Might be nearer because I don't think they come out with 8 bag.Air rides unless it was added to about seventy seven
Greetings from ireland.beautful kw cabover.great ya got her started.waiting to see what ya all do to her.👍
Thank you! And thanks for watching!
Must be 7273 model.Maybe seventy four because it has a narrow grill on it
Beautiful truck hope to see more content on it
Thank you! Definitely more coming. Gotta finish up the 362 first and hope to tear into it in the shop this winter.
Amazing find in that condition. Mine was a '74.
Thank you. Nice! How was that 74?
Not bad for a spring ride but I still remember the pain in my foot from gassing it for hrs. at a time. Cruise control was not a thing then.
Beatiful truck thats a keeper
Nice old truck , for sure a bargain! All the best with it .
Thank you!
Just needs some TLC, paint and some stacks and she'll be ready to rock. Maybe change that transmission and put a fresh turbo on it
Definitely!
I'm glad that's not my truck you're driving
kids looking around like he sees an answer
No power steering? That and front brakes were options back then. I'm looking at a trade deal on a 76 K100. Also back then the plastic that makes up the airlines wasn't that good so this truck would need an entire replumb. Manual steering, front brakes, no Jakes, manual passenger window, spring ride, BCIII 350, 13 spd, air slide with power divider rolling on 10 buds.
I'm about finished restoring a 1982 9670, it's been a year long event but I've also ran the truck the entire time too.
You have a good truck to start from, that's the hardest part, that and finding 15x4 inch front brake pads
Yep that no power steering will make you strong 💪😎 we were looking at all the hoses and lines and will probably end up replacing everything. Anything plastic or rubber after sitting out on that farm for so long is pretty shot. Thanks for watching! And hope you get that k100.
I would like to buy that truck. I started off driving one just like that when I started driver tractors.
You need to stay out of the truck if you don't know how to float the gears cuz that's one thing that you got to do in them semis that clutch ain't made to be used unless you're starting to stopping

Thank you! Thanks for watching.
Good looking super clean old k100 someone took care of that truck for sure
Thank you! It does have some very good record books. But the nice layer of dust inside the cab has definitely been keeping the interior protected from the sun 😂
did he say "super clean?????"
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Need to double clutch it baby
Yep!
very nice ke cabover love it and great price clean her up and get rolling if you ever get any cb s you don.t want hit me up
Thank you! Hoping to get into it more this winter after the 362 is done.
Nice 👌
Thank you!
Nice truck it’s in great shape but hard to watch you drive it geez 😒
😂
Are you taking any of your trucks to the show in Smith Valley next weekend?
Man I just found out about that the other day. I was hoping too but we have a good friends wedding we’ll be at. ☹️
goood job 😎😎😎😎😎😎😎
Thank you!
Sitting in the same spot for 18 years? That looks like a new development?
Check the earlier videos we moved it from the farm to our place before we could start it.
@@cfnevada Thought maybe that was it. Tires looked too good lol. Started at wrong video, eh?
What did you all do with this cabover? Haven't seen videos on it, wish it was for sale.
Still got it. Just haven’t had any time to make more videos on it yet. Hay season is real busy around here right now.
@@cfnevada I heard that, I got hay, red wheat, SSW wheat, peas and lintels to harvest, started on the wheat mother nature has been unpredictable as it's so hot and dry and then gives us just enough moisture that we missed 3 days due to 13% to 17% moisture content. I'll be looking forward to this project, I had his twin 1976 cousin until last year, it had a 1693T Cat and 15spd, miss that truck bad.
Mr my name is ali reza I love you ❤️
You don’t need the clutch to shift and your hard on the gears
Of course it will start, pfft. It's a kwhopper.
😂😂 very true! And with the big cam 400 it started just fine.
This almost seems to good to be true. An old truck sits for that many years, and just like that it's running and cruising down the road... not saying it isn't possible, but...
It was hard for us to believe it at first too. But with the detailed record books and knowing the owner of the truck 🤷♂️ it definitely needs some work tho. Anything rubber needs to be replaced. (Airbags, bushings, tires) I wouldn’t say it’s road worthy yet but it was able to go around the block.
@@cfnevada That's awesome. Really, you guys got lucky. I know there's some of those trucks there's not much left to work with after 20 years of neglect.
@@jasondrinovsky7962 definitely. This came out of the desert in California. Not much rain or humidity where it came from. Cab and frame being aluminum helps too.
@@cfnevada Know the owner and the record books all you want, somebody's lying.
Using the clutch to shift? 😳
😂
I live in Las Vegas, Im trying to figure what part of the state you reign from. Yerrington ?
Gardnerville, NV
@@cfnevada A lot of old calif motorcycle racers lived there. Dick Mann for one , RIP. Beautiful area
You're clutching all wrong when you drive a semi you either double clutch or you float
i see your not up on truck shifting
😂😂😂
The K100, that's what I've been waiting for. Did you check for coolant in the oil first.
Oil was good and clean. Was only a few thousand miles since it’s last oil change on the records before they parked it. It just happened to be a few gallons low on the coolant. We just got a little excited and didn’t check the coolant before we tried starting it haha
@@cfnevada good news, got to look out for pinholes in Cummins liners after sitting awhile
Does the horn work?
They blew a ton of dust when we tried haha. Gotta taken them and clean them out and should be good I think.
@@cfnevada AWESOME wanna trade for a 2002 mack vision sleeper truck excellent condition?
@@keepontruckinoutlawlife1248 maybe some day but for now it’s a project truck for me and my dad to work on and fix up. We found it and hauled it home together so we want to see it back on the road together too.
@@cfnevada understand keep me in mind thanks. I'm SUBSCRIBED so I watch all your videos
How much do you want for it ? I’m ready to purchase
Maybe some day but for now we’re keeping it.
What an odd sounding starter
why the truck sit for so long?
The farm changed operations. It was his dads truck and they just didn’t use it anymore but he didn’t want to sell it either. His dad recently passed away and they were selling the farm.
its painful watching you guys try and get that thing started! Ever heard of ether?
that's what I'm screaming!
Dude I think you don't have any idea of trucks the way you take that stik of the gear make me scare
😂
Hey, you want to be a truck driver if you really wanna know how to ship that truck nice and easy without double clutch in it except when you first take off or put in reverse you can synchronize it with the RPMs and you don’t have to bounce that truck all over hill learn
Had to quit watching
