- A tree fell on this old truck and crushed the top of the cab. Let's see if we can straighten it back out and get a windshield in it.

The story about that old dump truck and how you have it because it's the first engine you rebuilt is absolutely awesome!
I really feel for you fighting the chainsaw. There were a few butt puckering moments with the tree to say the least. Love that model Doge. Has always Liked,shared. All my best.
Thought better than I did a lot better than it was
Hey dude! I’m setting here laughing my rear end off ! I’m a retired millwright and I know all about the kind of day you’re having. Just too funny! You are the best show I’ve seen yet.
Plus having to deal with oppressive heat and 1000 % humidity
@@edwardmulder3777 i know too well about that, here in central florida. I got sick because of how hot it id
Poor guy😢, “ Murphy’s law “ fell on him
When you made that short I thought to my self “Damn, that sucks” I’m glad to see that you’re going to fix the old beast up again. Those were tough old trucks.
Backfires can damage the power valve inside the carburetor. I don't know if that would lead to the power loss you're describing but it may be a start. Btw, There's not nearly enough old Dodge pickups on the road. Glad you're giving this one a shot.
This poor guy needs a chainsaw sponsor! Great job.
It's always good to watch someone else hot and sweaty in 100% humidity 😂 I worked my share of hot and humid days in a damn near kills me so my heart goes out to you Chad. I've also thrown my share of aggravating chainsaws 😂 keep up the good work and I look forward to your next video 👍✌️🇺🇲
It's all that stupid ethanol that's in gas now. Biggest pain in the butt ever 😠
Nice work Chad. I'm glad you could get the cab mostly pushed back out. Yeah, those metal non-removable headliners are difficult to work around. Take care 🙂👍
What's funny is this truck reminds me of your channel name because it is definitely a hodge podge dodge!
@@ThisNThatGarage lol!! That's true! 😂
@@ThisNThatGarage had a chainsaw same.. service guy said, use all the fuel up. use new fuel mix everytime. i suffered with it for yrs, nearly threw it..
@@ThisNThatGarage im in aus.. yrs ago, i bought a ford escort mk 2, from the wreckers, it was between 2 cars, 1 on the roof. it was a shell. escort rally pack mk2. original paint. i pushed out the roof, std w/screen, re fitted all the std rally bits, reg it, & sold it..1.5 yrs later. ive imported 3 cars from u.s. cos we have sht.. love your vids..
Great video! I love the way you work to get the old things serviceable and not just started. Keep it up.
Well, your lack of expletives with that chain saw is highly commendable.
Words were said, I just don't see the need in putting them in a video that women or kids might watch.
I have a bad tool depository (called a pond) It has an untold number of bad tools in it. Rachets broken wrenches or the ones that slip off a bolt head. That chainsaw would be in there if I could throw it that far.
Well it looks like your luck runs like mine….not too good! Glad to see you didn’t give up on it. Chainsaws were invented by Satan!!!😂
I totally enjoyed this episode… I was right there, through all the hunts and grunts!
I love that you’re real… and humorous throughout the tasks at hand!
Stay safe, hydrated and cool out there!
I agree David!
I'm old enough to remember that ❗ if you want your dash lights to brighten ❗❗❗❗😂. The old school light knob turn it to the right or left it will brighten up 👍👍👍👍❗
Maybe by chance your distributor is drawing dampness somehow..... or your coil is bad.... I'm just guessing...
Love your videos . You win the Golden Screwdriver award for taking that winch apart.
Loved the video. Your perseverance is admiral. Thanks for letting me watch you work.
I was about wore out just watching you, brother!
Now, I'm surprised to say this myself, but I wouldn't be mad to see you get this thing running and driving and turn it into a "topless" option model.
The thought crossed my mind.
My Mom, went through a windshield before and her parents had to pick glass out of her face for 2 weeks
11:30-12:00 you were making me nervous, all I thought about if that tree falls towards you it’s over
That spider is a cellar spider. It shakes the web to scare off predators. We have them in Europe too.
If it weren’t for bad luck I have no luck At all Doom despair and agony on me
The yellow chainsaw is burning bar oil...the automatic oiler pump has a gasket that leaks, letting bar oil flow right into the crankcase
It's not an automatic oiler and unless the case is cracked bar oil aint getting in the crankcase. The fuel line was melted and has most likely stopped up the carb. Look for a video on it soon.
Never park something you care about under a tree...unless you have full-coverage insurance. Make sure that gasket fence is straight before you put the replacement glass in...lol.
lol.. this channel gets better and better every time theres a new vid ... your doin a fine job .. never change a thing !!!! P.S> nobody understands dodge wiring ..lol
I'm a Chevy guy myself, but a couple years ago my nephew bought a Dodge and my brother and him worked on it constantly and we're never able to get the electrical sorted out. Before he ever got it running, he gave up and it got sold!! Last year I made the mistake of buying a 2005 Dodge K3500 Cummins. I drove it home but have never been able to get it on the road due to electrical gremlins!!!
@@floridagunrat1625 lol i hear ya
Crikey ! When I was fortunate to live in PA for a few years I thought 100 % humidity was bad ! But 1400 % humidity?
Tough man !
Thumbs up for the vid !
If any officials from OSHA are going to watch this video, they better have a ready supply of smelling salts....
OSHA is a joke.
That E85 gas sucks on small engines like weed eaters and chain saws ! I started using the 91 octane and they run well on it and use that stabil fuel additive and it helps als
You need a high powered magnet on a string for dropped screws, nuts and bolts.
hay why dont you buy a battory for your truck and park it not under tress.also buy some good gas , and a new spark plug .for your saw.. it helps ..sorry about your dodge ,man
I wish it was just bad gas or a spark plug.
Have you flip the toggle switch under the dash to see if it's for the cargo light above the non slidin window, thought that chainsaw was takin a trip to Mexico when you shut it down, n8ce restraint lol
Cargo light is a different switch and it works.
Bubba when I was in my 50s and still working in the tire /Auto shop , we did undercar work I had knee problems so I went and found a good set of kneepads without the plastic and they worked well , I just could not stand ant weight on my knee and the pads really helped !
If that was a Wisconsin truck that jack would be going down instead of the roof going up
The next video how I installed a 350 V8 on a chainsaw! Funny video as usual.
Another great video full of humor and old school “ get r done “. Awesome.
I feel your pain. I’m terrible with small engines…and not much better with the big ones! Great video. I can’t want to see the old Mopar get some love.
with the chain saw, I feel your pain ☹
Chain saw might have a cracked or broken fuel line ! Don’t ask me how I know! Lol
Just have to say that I love each video you put out. Entertaining and glad that I’ve stumble upon your channel. Your sense of humor is awesome!
👍
Yep when that tree moved in the bucket you looked like you were ready to unass the AO ,
Well ill be dipped ur the happiest mechanic ive ever seen ever especially when weather is hot ur the opposite feller ever don’t understand… how calm n kool n colective u are…ive been around a million mechanics… ur one n a billion… ur top billing…🤠👈🏾
love your termination
Well, I'm only 44 seconds into this video. Sadly, yesterday morning (Sunday June 30, 2024) around 10 AM. The wife and I heard a very loud noise from behind the house, Which is where we park our truck. A limb about the size of the one shown that's touching the truck in this video broke off a pin oak that back there and fell about 20-ish feet onto the passenger side of the truck. No wind, no rain, nothing. Just a bright sunny day. It has a brank about the size of a mans arm through the windshield, through the dash, and to the floor. It's a three door cab, 97 f-150. It crushed the roof above the pass front and pass rear door, obviously broke those windows.
I pray there are some tricks and tips in this and the other videos you've published that at least give me some hope on fixing this. I was a mechanic for 30+ years. I am now 100% disabled and on disability, which I HATE. Yes, the wife works. But given the state of the economy, we're doing everything possible just to keep out heads above water. To the point I'm skipping medical procedures, Skipping meds that I'm supposed to be on, and even skipping meals. No, we don't have full coverage on the truck and made the decision more than a year ago to stop paying our homeowners insurance, I own the house and land outright. So again, I hope there's information that I can apply to the situation we have here.
More importantly, Thank You Sir for posting this. It's at least given given me a little hope this can be fixed. I need all the hope I can get atm. 😮💨😩😞
Oh and no worries about me blaming you for anything stupid I might do. I'm not that sort of fella. My actions are my fault, no one else's!!
Had me clinching when that wheel got hung up.
Try this with a modern truck
great episode - keep up the good content !
That was hard to watch you struggle I wanted to jump in and help
Use the hydrologic Jack from a cherry picker with wood blocks one on the floor and and one on top and jack it up I done it many times
I don't know what a hydrologic jack is. 🤣😜
Makes me really appreciate my battery powered chainsaw.........................If you would have lifted it from the other side, it would have drove right out.....SMH
You’re one bad son of a gun yourself old mate.
I’m looking forward to seeing your channel reach 100k subs.
Your channel is my favourite after Mortske Repairs. All the best from Australia
You did a fine job putting the roof of the truck where it belongs, Yahoooo!! but chainsaws Welllll . THERE like that with me !!!!!
That’s great McCulloch chainsaw 10-10 it’s running out of Gas either your fuel filter in the gas tank is bad or your diaphragm in the carburetor easy repair job it’s a Tillison carburetor I have many McCulloch love them
Sure could a used another set a hands there brother. Got a little sketchy a couple a times.
Your a man after my own heart feller ,love the vids. UK
U have the patience of a Saint. I don't make videos because this Is the way most of my days go. Actually this was quite entertaining. Maybe I will make some videos. Lol
hey that doesn't have a 79 grille in it if its a 79. thats a 77-78
I'm pretty sure its a 78, A 79 had 4 (square) headlights,
Between your pants ripping and the glass showering on your head, I was dying laughing
Man!!! I just found you like 3 days ago... but.. yo youza TRIP!!! haha Lovn ur show dude! Bout to start my own channel.. You seen vicegrip garage or goonzquad? I got more.. I watch all yall!! But you sir.. a trip!! haha Thank you for sharing!!!!
Take your gas cap off it might drain faster. You might have to cut the inside roof panel & bend it down so you can jack the outer roof up and weld the cut back up
Those chains are cheap as chips, great video .
For the amount of time I need my chainsaw I gave up on mixing gas n oil. The engineered fuel works better. Never gets stale. Burns clean and higher octane. Glad to see you didn't get crushed. Trees are heavier than you think.
You are the Man Chad! Give it the “Good Ole Boys” try! You will have Sucess!💪💪💪💪
One of my saws did exactly like yours doing. In the end it was the sparkplug holder not really had a good connection to the sparkplug wire.
Look at the sparkplug wire all the way.
i found one but its a 71 d150 with a 218 on marketplace an i want it so bad but aint got the room for it in my back yard, the guy said it needs a carb fuel lines an the tank needs cleaning
I had a tree fall on my vw beetle windscreen whilst driving it and had glass cuts to my face and in my eyes 😱 it's defo not a nice feeling that's for sure! Glad you wore safety specs but you should of really taped down Ur trouser legs as that could of been nasty 🙄 stay safe 😉
Sometimes I wonder if my real name is shlep-rock 😂 guess you have the same thoughts lol sorry buddy that sucks
I hope you hit it big on the ole TH-cam and can buy a new chainsaw 😆😆😆
If I hit it big I'll just hire stuff out!
Lovely back yard wisgph we had! One,,,ps thatvtrucknreally want to be on the road!
The big mistake people make with small engines is they don't drain gas and run it out of gas then store it .the petrol evaporates leaving oil in carb gums it up ,I'm a mechanic by trade and do mowers now .and mr spider is a defender they do it to appear big to predators love the cool old iron you save heaven to me
Of all the stuff u show us how to do, what fascinated me the most is your ability to asnu say "trace wires " i can make an old motor run and build anything. What i wont attempt and cannot do is "trace wires"
Would recomendu to get some pads for ur knees, will make ur life much better. Im 50+ and did find out the hard way to
Chad bad luck happens in Kentucky too me and you wouldn’t have no luck if we didn’t have bad luck we should have been on Hee Haw
I live in the stinking city, where you live, to me that is Paradise, with that open field across the street from your home, just great and nice and quiet
Amazon sells the old style spouts to replace the shitty new ones. Bought some last summer. Best 20.00 ever spent! Came as a 3 pack
Even if I could afford to buy a new starter I wouldv'e rebuilt, the old one cause id wanna know why it broke in the first place.
You got the patience of Job! I’d have thrown that saw right through what’s left of that windshield!!! Lol
Ask Dale at Pole Barn Garage he has the solve to that major damage body work on the budget friendly repairs
good job friend keep it up cheers..
Such will power….second stall that saw would have gone through that windshield, pulled out run over with tractor and chucked in the woods
I love this guy. Hilarious. Im rolling on the floor laughing. Get this man a new chain saw. Just not a poulan
Damn ethanol gas corn/soy bean and a percentage of water deposits in the gas its why you don't want it sitting in vehicles not being ran .
Make a convertible out of it...
Change winch over to Albright solenoid 1 replaces the 4 and ends your problems most winch companies have changed to it i convert all winches to the Albright
McCullough saw? Unreally are a fan of using what u got lol thats gotta be 100 years old?
What part of the world do you live in?
Southern part of the northern hemisphere.

@@ThisNThatGarage ok then I'm glad I've told everyone I know about your channel and telling everyone to spread the word. Love this channel and the content. Keep doin what you do your way👍
@@craigbowley6783 Preshate that.
I have been on sleeperdude but you intrigue me you got a lot in common.i love watching both of you.
That is a 80's model ford crown Victoria v8 starter solenoid ive seen them on those cars...
You're a working fool...you remind me of my dad who could get anything running
Felt bad for when he kept having to mess with that chainsaw. I thought he was going to chunk that thing into the woods.
At this point I am asking myself does anything I own run? I'm going in the house for a beer.
All it takes to fix that is a big screwdriver and a BFH. LOL
Love the old dodges. More '72-93 content, please!
Why don't you just back the red pickup up after lifting the tree?
Another GREAT vid!!!!!!!!!!! 👍👍
Get you a battery powered saw like a 16” Milwaukee you won’t be sorry.
Actually this was the BEST and most interesting show yet!
