Matt throwing down $100,000 on stuff he doesn't need is just what I needed this morning
yah but it comes back nearly double after I flip it.
@@DieselCreek And that is the right way!!! Let's do it !!!
Best show yet!!! Can't wait to watch you work on all of it.
Big money but at least it can be resold.
Money makes money
Repairs, auctions, rebuilds, whatever! If I watch you get dirty like I used to do it makes smile. 77 years old and still love machinery, especially diesel units.
Great comment. 77? You are my hero!
Hey @Rustyrod76... I'm 51, but I still feel the same way. I couldn't do the job now if I wanted to... knees are shot to hell and I just can't get up and down anymore. But those were good times... damned good times. Always makes me smile watching Matt do _exactly_ what we used to do.
Lets see the teli handler start and fix
@@russfelt5117 Extremely valuable tool that has phenomenal reach and lift capacity? Eh?
dont make money your god you will perish than, repent and get right with jesus and be baptized for the forgiveness of sins and receive the holy spirit
On the JCB trucks.
One of them had the injection pump changed probably 3 years ago, I wanna say 237-37
237-37 also needs brake pads
The old fiberglass roofs blew off during transport.
Personally, I’d redesign the battery hold downs. I replaced the batteries in both multiple times from the holder arcing the positive post out and melting it.
They usually always ran good.
did you have trouble finding parts for the units?
How do you know? U owned them?
@@schroedl172the local priest told him
@@schroedl172 It sounds like he at least worked on them.
Thanks for the info!
I can't say why I've been watching your videos for many years. I live in Germany and have nothing to do with such machines. But it has been a strong fascination to watch for many years, keep it up and thank you very much
Got to be honest. Auction videos are some of my favorite!!!!
glad you like them!
@@DieselCreek Matt, greetings from Germany! Stay save and keep the Videos rolling. I love it !
he makes bad financial decisions so we don't have to. :-P
Ah yes, Matt goes shopping🤣😂
If I won the lotto the I'd have to stay away from the machine auction or I'd end up with a fleet of excavators😂
Well now you got that telehandler you can install the crane system in your shop.....
Yeah buddy! Let’s see that crane install!
Shop crane is definitely the project I’m most interested in seeing
And a sex swing for your mom
yes. Come on with that crane build and the
Autocar rebuild.
@@robertarmitage8709 And then the OTHER Autocar rebuild :)
Matt i am 73 years old been a diesel mechanic all my life I have worked on all international,Cummins and cat engines please keep us informed on your selling or keeping equipment i never miss a episode keep up the good work best of luck
The forklifts were your best purchase. With TLC and proper operation they will last many more years.
if I were Matt I'd keep the one with the 12k something hours on it and swap a working scale screen (11k hr one?) because the 12k hr one fired right over with no issues.from the start... But what do I know!
I would like to see the inspection/repair of all the resell purchases. I really enjoy watching you work, wrench, and learn. Thanks, Matt!

@@kamnur7251 only some? xD
@@kamnur7251 amen
14:22 "I've heard parts availability is a nightmare in the US".
I'll take two, please. LOL
Thanks for another great video!
FYI - I love my hoodie!
Glad you like it! I took a good look at them and they are just a cummins bolted to ZF trans and axles, nothing really JCB specific outside the cab, plus muck is gonna get me parts I need.
@@DieselCreek Makes me giggle when 1 of the world parts facilities, and JCB worldwde headquarters are literally 10 & 15 miles from where i'm sitting watching this in Staffordshire UK right now! Great vid & those fork trucks were worth buying for toys at that money
hey, he has two, the second one is for parts for the first! xD
@@funnyguy3D that was also part of rational lol
Now he has at least one set of parts. Lol
It’s a vicarious thrill to watch someone like you or AndrewC acquire, repair/maintain and use the big machines I grew up around - my dad and his brothers owned a large CNY general contracting firm, had an equipment yard full of CAT dozers, payloaders, pan scrapers, truck cranes, gradalls, paving equipment, a fleet of 10 wheel Mack dump trucks, large ford stake/rack trucks, sandblasting rigs, multiple HD equipment moving rigs, etc… on weekends I’d accompany my dad to his office wherein I’d wash his work ford 2504x4 out in the shop
yard, screw around in their Motorola private radio system that was in most vehicles, etc… suffice it to say I had a great set of summer jobs doin all types of labor that my dad initially insisted would help me develop character, but which he later admitted was his way to impress upon me how much I never wanted to do those back-breaking laborious jobs and instead wanted to be come an accountant and tax lawyer…. He was spot on correct
Being in the same industry and now retired this is a great way of staying in touch as well as passing a couple of enjoyable hours.
This was an awesome auction video! Of course we want to see the fixing and flipping. Best part seeing all the content that just came to the farm. The worst part waiting for all the content that just came to the farm lol. I love how Matt's neighbors are unphased to Matt bringing a haul truck down a one lane dirt road. Just a polite wave as we ride on by lol.
They have seen worse clank on by 😂
As a railroad worker it is pretty impressive to see how easily those side booms move locomotives and cars around.
Honestly everything you do that isn’t just moving dirt is super interesting to me. Love the auctions, the repairs, the diagnostics, and the Autocar content!
Matt, for some reason I lost you for a while, but the good side is I can binge watch ! But, seeing and hearing Matt going around the auction site, reminds me very much of my 7yo son going around Toys R Us with a $50 bill in his hand. Go for it Matt !
11:00pm Saturday night in Sydney Australia, bedtime just got pushed back and I have the biggest smile, thanks Matt!
just up the road in newcastle and it’s the same here 😂
Hahaha, brisbane, and it 10:30pm for me
I'm in Tasmania Glad fellow Aussies Love this channel :)
Okay, in Darwin about 10.05pm. Good stuff Matt
I'm in West Australia 2030 here
JCB is named after Joseph C Bamford who founded the company in England. They make their own diesel engines for smaller items like telehandlers and have manufactured more than 1 million engines.In the UK their products are so common that backhoes are generically called JCBs
I know they are quite popular over there. Not so much here. our local Township has a pretty new backhoe and it was down for like six months waiting on a stupid part that they should have had in stock.
It’s all what dealer you have
Some say JCB is junk coming from Britain. The haul trucks have Cummins so maybe they will be good
JCB has a horrible reputation in England and they are used to a lot of abuse.
Good history of an English company world wide. I went to a depot of theirs in Kent, (the first one) for a job as a workshops fitter. I turned it down as I was already earning much more so I stayed where I was. No regrets about not accepting their offer as I ended up working for a commercial vehicle dealership. T
My pay just went up and up. Retired early through ill health and now I just work on a few friends cars to keep me a bit active and my brain alive. JCB is a very good company to work for and I would now recommend to anyone to take a job with them. KW Now 75 and still doing well.
People like you are the best thing any nation could ever have.
Hard working.
Not afraid to get their hands dirty.
Willing to risk their own money and health too provide legal .. clean living for their families and be a good part of society.
Just keep doing what good for you and your family.. grow a good business, enjoy life.❤
Hulcher Derailment Services were originally oil pipe line layers until a derailment on either the Southern Pacific or the Santa Fe RR's down in Texas. The railroad could not get their derricks (rail derricks) to the middle of a derailment to get cars moved. The site foreman from the railroad went to the supervisor of Hulcher & asked if their guys could give an assist & as they say "the rest is history".
Love watching you buy equipment that you didn’t really need but you did need
I love how Matt and Sam goad each other. Matt: "I need this machine". Sam says "Yes you do"!
@@sinnasinna7060 we do it to each other every day lol
@@sinnasinna7060 Matt: "I'm not sure if I actually need 1 of these." Sam: "Yes, you do." Matt: "I guess I need 1 of these in my life, then."
@@pokemonrocks08 You're right! I was watching it first this morning with my first sip of coffee and biffed the quote.
Matt, You established the part about your not going to be building, nor going to run a conventional repair shop or operate during "A" typical hours. I can't even picture you working in a 9-5 setting for any length of time. Your calling is doing just what your doing now, buying, fixing, using and reselling equipment. For most, that's the dream. For you, that's the plan and it's working out very well. The video's are informative, but more than that-there an inspiration. You don't waste time on things like paint, buffing or polishing. Your theory is specific-It starts, it runs, it's here. Come try it, buy it, take it home, paint it and fly it! Your videos show how you got it, what you did to it, and all sales are fair, legit, and final. It doesn't get any better than that.
The telehandlers, back them on the trailer next time. Use the boom to push you back up the ramp. Thus saving the tires, and damaging your trailer or sliding off.
You can get the oil filler cap off the Corolla you have scrapped in the yard. Regards Andy from Australia
AWESOME episode! Good length, lots of content, backstory and transparency about your business. Intro with previews was a great touch and the outro with the Mack singing was just icing on the cake. Man this channel has come a long way since the early days. Always a treat, always love to see the evolution and being a part of Diesel Creek. Great job Matt.
Very much appreciated!
Well said.
Love both your auction videos and the troubleshoot and repair. Its nostalgic to see someone do "Mechanic" work, not "Tech" work. Anyone can replace parts til it runs, but it takes talent to troubleshoot and repair.
Years ago, the Car Talk guys would do 'reviews' of a number of mechanics to check and see if they were honest - near the end what they were finding was that the honesty factor was going up while the problem solving was going down - iirc, their conclusion was that the current crop of mechanics weren't knowledgeable enough to cheat well.
I love watching you bring stuff home from the auction. Usually, by the time I see your videos, you've already sold anything that I would like to have.
I'll be honest, I like seeing the stuff out at the yard almost as much as I like seeing you bring them home. Thanks for bringing us along, Matt!
*I've been watching since the old garage & green jeep days.
*With an old cub cadet mower thrown in for a change up.
*Great content, Matt.
*More purchase & fix up content, please.
That's just what I was going to say. However I think I've been watching longer than that 1:14:10
If Richie Bros score a stash of Cub Cadets, Matt will be trucking them home for days
I had a diesel mechanic tell me if you ever get this in your blood you'll never do anything else. I'm not working as a mechanic anymore , but I still buy something to fix and flip from time to time. The channel is always a must watch for me, no matter what you're doing. I do enjoy the action videos and would love to see the fix and sell
I think n k your rite the gene would be your best by
The nicest Forklift you bought has 27k hours Wow Was very well taken care of for the hours Matt wow It runs drives brakes work and all the functions for the lift work sweet 40:15 @Diesel Creek
Good morning Matt and thanks to Sam helping you haul all that home. I hope you will keep one JCB for yourself! Make a good profit on the rest.
Would love to see how these items will sell. It makes the process go full circle.....buy, tow, fix-up, sell. Great stuff!
Well, fix up is not always required u can sell it directly as well..
PLEASE! Show all the rebuild and site improvement. You have one of the best shows on YT
What he said X2, please?
Yes, x3!!
As someone who worked at a freight dock using forklifts exactly like that. I know the "Mr. Manhole" sticker came from a peice of freight, and that the dock workers laughed at it all day that day.
We want all the content Matt! It’s all incredibly interesting everything you do, even just mowing the lawn 😂😂 please have a camera with you!
Matt, we ran a LOT of those Toyota forklifts at my old job. You have nothing to worry about with those hours. Every one of ours did 40K+ hours before they got sold, and they all ran fine when they went. Never any major issues, just ancillary stuff like a gas converter, bad sensor, or dodgy starter. Major components, never a problem.
The brakes on all yours will be good, just like they were on ours -- they never get used! That said, in over 2 MILLION hours I saw those forks, we never had a transmission problem -- NEVER! Pretty good for machines that would be going flat out one way grossing 5.5 tonnes and be slammed into the opposite direction at full throttle.
ETA: That valve tick is the worst I've heard on one of those. They normally go away with oil pressure like all the others did. Probably fixable though. And the one that won't start will be some finickity little thing rather than the engine itself.
With a few thousand hours in the saddle of those myself, I also think it's something simple, like a fuel regulator or maybe dirty distributor cap and rotor contacts. These are otherwise very reliable little engines. Those little Toyota motors are definitely built to last.
2 million hours? Are you saying you're over 228 years old or the machines? I'm sure it's because it's really early in the morning but I'm definitely not comprehending what you're saying on that part
@@killtyrant That's like saying something will last forever. We all know nothing lasts forever, right? No need to be so littoral all the time.
I am guessing the fuel regulator needs to be serviced.
@@brians48now
That's not how it reads. It comes off as literally 2 million hours because everything before and after it is literal so to say he's speaking euphemistically outta nowhere is far fetched. As I said. It was early when I read it but even the better part of an hour later, it just reads weird to me
Matt, from a fellow Pennsylvanian you are exactly the type of person this state needs more of.
You are my favorite youruber because i always feel like im right there with you man.
YES! Matt has a cozy and inviting way about him! Always feels like visiting with a friend.
Looking forward to seeing you working on all the stuff to get them all ready for you or sale. Thank you again for taking us along Matt. Really enjoy your escapades.
Having seen telehandlers used at work, its a no brainer, the Genie is the score. The older one is great, but the JCBs are #2 in my mind. They're compact and versatile, as far as haul trucks are concerned. Easy to move, and easy to take down public roads when needed.
Please do post Matt on the fixing of the items before their resale. Would love to see how you repair the JCB roofs of the Cabs. Thanks again Matt.
You should consider putting a Container Rollout Platform (CROP) inside the container for the engine. It basically turns the container into a drawer.
I worked my way through the University of the District of Columbia in the 80’s selling auction cars 🚘. Now at 64 I enjoy watching you so much, I want to do it again
I worked for Yellow Freight, those tow motors run 24 hours a day seven days a week wide open !! Tuff !!
Yes, I would like to see the fixin up process. I actually learn something from them. Thank you for posting.
Best Buy? 534C gradall. Ole’ girl barely
got home and started putting in work. Unloaded $9(ish)k of semi-functional Toyota forktrucks, when she wasn’t pulling the busted genie arond the yard. That’s the gem of the bunch.

Saturday 8:00 a.m. in the states, just enough time to watch some diesel Creek eat a bowl of breakfast before we get the day started
PM in Tokyo.... same here, enjoy ing Matt’s spring Christmas!
It's the same for many of us regardless where we live. This is a good evening show to watch.
ABSOLUTELY! I would love to see the purchase of things, repairs (if any) and being sold or even being Kept! Thanks for taking us along!
Nothing I love more than seeing what you buy at the auctions Matt! Also yes please show us the repairs and sales 👍🏼
You should call that 5340 Telehandler "Blue Belle", Matt. She's a little beauty!! That's your best buy of this auction in my view. Rest are money makers, though that one appears to be a memory maker. 🙂
I foresee a stall in Matt's stable for Blue Bell.! 1:14:10
I shouldn’t read comments before watching! There’s a 5340 at the beginning of the video and I wanted to see if anyone commented on the Lets Go Brandon sticker it had on it ha.
dont make money your god you will perish than, repent and get right with jesus and be baptized for the forgiveness of sins and receive the holy spirit
I really like seeing you fix up these pieces of equipment. It really takes the mystery out of how these things run and work. I think the forkless Genie was the best deal, as long as your hunch is correct and there are no demons tucked in there.
I bet you got a forklift. There were so many. You waited till the last 10 or 20 and SNAGGED a bargain. LOVE you man. GREAT channel...
I would even watch you mowing your lawn Matt , for me, yours and "Mr Hewes" are the only channels I regularly watch.
That transition at 0:14 was *chef's kiss*
And yes please, do show how you prep them for sale!
Personally I think the dry van trailer was a great buy at the price. You can use it for storage, or license it and use it to pick up items that you don't want to haul through nasty weather. You'd be surprised at what will fit in those things. We used to pick up John Deere tractors and haul them from Atlanta to Iowa in a dry van.
OF COURSE we want to see more of the process of stuff getting prepped for resale. Great videos, Matt.
Yes Matt, please show the rebuilds.
Matt, show us all the steps, the repairs, the rebuilds, the prepping for sale, etc. Love it. Thanks for the video!
Nice haul! You should keep 2 forklifts, lowest hours except if they have noises or running issues, fix and flip the rest. Keep and love the Gradall, fix and flip the Genie, fix brakes on JCB, keep best 1 flip the other. Build some drying racks for lumber for the trailer. A dealers license is also a great idea if you can swing it.
Would love to see more vids of you prepping stuff to sell. Would be great to see what you make off them too, breakdown of purchase price, repair costs, sale price.
Those forklifts probably all have unused factory brakes since 97% of forklift operators don't use them!
You and your buddies get to play with the big toys I only dream of. Congratulations and thanks for always including us in your acquisitions, adventures and repairs. Yur a good feller Matt.
An equipment refurbishing and flipping shop....Awesome Matt!
You have a keen eye, and excellent wrench hand for this business.
AND, we get to watch you fix/refurbish the stuff.
Hope you have a good power washer. Some of that stuff looked pretty nasty.
He does have a good power washer. Check out his grader restoration videos... You'll see it in action.
I like them all. My father got me hooked. He is 87 and still out in the barn always working on something. I've got a smart TV in my shop and use my phone for a hot spot and was listening to this show and watching it in-between working on my M715.
I love seeing the repair footage, it's one of the aspects of your channel that I subscribed for!
Definitely my favorite kind of videos! Watching you spend all your money and seeing what treasures you bring back
Glad you like them!
Matt I really am loving the new part of the channel BUYING N FLIPPING.
I am coming up 80 year old , I live in the north east Scotland , I worked on pipelines in the 70ts. So I can relate to the side booms
Love your videos! Really like watching retrieving and getting old equipment running videos because you never know whats next. keep up the fun!
You are an endless supply of joy for this 80 plus yr wanna be mechanic. You are one entertaining man. Keep on keeping on. Thank you loads from one western PA man to the other.
Matt, 'Been watching you since the 'Basement Days' w/Lawn Tractors, to today, WHEW !! You've come a long way baby! Truly impressive to be sure. Your 'Dream Life' is vicariously lived by men, (& boys). THE WEST PENN MAFIA !!
dont make money your god you will perish than, repent and get right with jesus and be baptized for the forgiveness of sins and receive the holy spirit
I’m jealous. Definitely the genie is the Best Buy followed by the dump rig.
Yes. I like you fixing equipment for resale.
Heck ya...want to see you fix to sell and fix to keep! To get 8 forklifts for those prices, you should make a bundle. That Telehandler is going to be so useful.
Wonder if he’ll sell fat Alice now?
Great day at the auction! The Genie is your real money maker and should be your priority. Once it runs and you’ve checked it over it will sell super easy for a very good profit - turn it over quick and buy more stuff!
One of my Dad’s friends used to buy motorcycles to flip.
He said there’s three parts to what I do:
First, buy motorcycles - I always do that;
Second, fix up motorcycles - I sometimes do that;
Third, sell motorcycles- I never do that.
He did eventually sell them all when he retired, but he spent his whole working life pretty well broke but with a barn full (full!) of bikes!
Sam Is one of the Best Truck Drivers i have ever Seen Just amazing Skills and wasnt exspecting the Yellow Trailer but 800 bucks not bad Matt 1:07:18 @Diesel Creek
How many miles was the tow?
@DieselCreek Make sure to install French drains in a area your going to bring up the grade. You dont want the grade to wash away and the best way to help that is to keep the ground saturation down with French drains that run into your creek back there.
Agree: Standing water = Sinking Soil Level!

Please more prep-up Videos. I absolutely loved this Video and would Love to See Everthing beeing brought to life and running well.
Absolutely, want to see your rehabilitation and flipping of your recent purchases. Love the haul trucks.
I bet you are going to LOVE that Gradall handler. I worked at the factory when that model was being built. Structurally they are tanks, the rear pivot steering makes them super maneuverable, and they are quite off-road capable. I could see that becoming a big part of your operations. Hope you can sell the other forklifts easily, since all of them have the short masts for inside truck trailer work.
Yes Matt, please follow up with all these items you bought! I'm dying to know what's wrong with the big Telehandler!!
I really like the way you did this Auction video with the follow up after with bringing them all home and trying to get the forklifts running!
Matt, your eyes when you go to the auction place, like a kid in a sweet shop. keep up the good work, happy to watch you with any project.
Get a tree Chipper for recovery of the wood from forest 🌳 and make soil amendment. And a firewood processor for selling the crap wood that you can't make Lumber from. 1:13:18

Oh boy! Auction videos are the best!
glad you like em!!
i am so impressed with your work ethic i just love to watch you bring back the old machine's thankyou for a great channel.
Thank you very much!
It will be cool to see a lot of this equipment being put to work!! I always love the “let’s get it functional videos but my favorite is when they are put to work!! Especially to advance you and your business and you channel
The Genie was by far the best purchase, gotta say the low hour forklift was in the running along with the dump hauler. Heck I'd say you made out like a bandit!
Matt you are living most of our dreams! Would love to see all the repairs and resells of the equipment hall. I enjoy all your videos, dirt work,shop build,repairs, auctions,you make it I'm watching it. Best content creator on here. Pretty sure I'd watch you eating lunch. Congratulations on all your success.

Haha, thanks, no one’s ever said that before
@@DieselCreek Yes Sir, your welcome, that’s a professional sports commentator voice, all day, every day !
Hey Matt, I have one of the JCB haul trucks, it’s a 714 model. Little older than the ones you looked at. Absolutely love that little truck.
Good Lord yes, man-please do bring us along getting your machines ready to sell. Really do look forward to what you put up here!
Sounds to me like the Gradall is actually the best deal....something darn useful and you have gotten to liking!
