You must live near the HONEY HOLE of vehicles sitting 40+ years. Great deal man.. awesome to see these old girls get a chance at least for one more try in life! Thank you!
I do, too, around where he is always mentioning, but man sometimes the guys pull it out of the woods and ask for $300 and sometimes they ask for $3000. No telling either unless you put in the effort to find them yourself, but sometimes it's justified. But come on, there was some on Studebaker truck, it had to be a limited later model run, but it had 3 different trucks piecing it together and he wanted $2500 for rust holes on every part and panel. On the other hand a Facebook marketplace ad with no price listing, someone wanted TWO international scouts of the same year in rough shape gone off their property for less than a grand. It's definitely something I wish I had more knowhow and funds for.
I’m glad you started posting more often, you’re one of the best channels. You pull off miraculous mechanical marvels, and are very funny. Whenever I log on and see a new video from you I stop scrolling and watch it.
This is my favorite channel. Vintage Jeeps have never been four-wheel drive. The wheel with the least amount of traction will always get the power fore and aft. Therefore the welding of the rear axle. Thank you always for the entertainment and knowledge you share each week.
I wish that I was your neighbor, that truck would be in my shop now but South Africa is a long way away. Thanks for the show, I absolutely love watching you revive the old girls.❤
(Engine explodes in face) “whooo she decided to catch on fire. That happens in about every video”. Lol yes sir and that’s why I’m here! Love your videos and your nonchalant way of handling anything that goes wrong.
i’m in toledo, ohio watching. toledo was and still is the home of jeep, formerly willys, formerly willys overland i love them old jeep trucks and i really enjoy jennings motorsports videos
Lmaooooo he’ll be like “grandpa look it’s like the video” hopefully you finish some of these because I’ve seen a few of them and there in restorable condition
My friend resurrected a WW2 Jeep, it was caked in bog dead plant material, which preserved it. Like yourself he had real knack for fixing old machinery. His Jeep was from '41 or '43, he unburied it and got it running in 1970 and proceeded to use for another 30 years. It had a PTO transmission hook-up at the rear, which he used to run other farm equipment. He loved studying the various JEEP models that were issued during WW2. His specialty was finding equipment buried in bogs. Farmers would reward him with the machines, he dragged out of their bogs. His best find, was a 1919 CASE Dozer, which also was preserved by the bog material. It was a hand crank engine. He got it running and used it often from the 1970s to 1990s.
I watch most of your videos on tv where I can't make comments. I watch many shows like this, and I think you are one of the best. I especially like your down homey way!!
I really appreciate these videos! Thank you, truly for these. My friends and I used to do these kind of things 35-40 years ago, and these videos remind me of how much fun it was.
Your voice personality are great don’t change a thing. Your attitude and positive thinking is not afraid to tackle any rusted up forgotten vehicle and get them running again.
I just love the videos, keep them coming, you are the best and you are a great teacher because I'm learning so much from you and I know there are many other people learning too, great work you do getting these old girls running again!
My dad had one of these back in the late '70s, a 1950 if memory serves, it did have the straight six in it.... he eventually added a custom made bed to it, reinforced everything all to hell, and made a plow truck out of it. It was a tank... the damn thing body and drivetrain was indestructible
The "Raticus Giganticus" package was a dealer installed option, i believe. This one also seems to also have the fan belt self delete package as well. 😂 Good job getting this old girl running again!
i always hooked a out board engine gas tank to the fuel pump . then you got clean fuel 😎. live your shows . such a rush to breath life into some old rig and hear it fire up 👍🏼
A friend had an outboard tank with an electric pump, which I borrowed a few times. That was the cat's ass for doing long distance rescues. Beats the heck out of a window washer tank with duct tape on the roof.
I had a 58 split window truck decent shape and it had the Tornado six cylinder in it. I do not know if that was the original one but the firewall was set back to make room for that big engine! What a fun truck. My friend had the same year and they put the Ford V8 in a totally daily driver! Wish I had it today.
Love the channel and love seeing the old stuff run again. They won’t be able to do that with this new crap we’re putting out nowadays. Keep up the great work. Thank you ✌️
I had a 1964 Willys Kaiser pickup that I had a lot of fun with. It was converted to Chevy power when I bought it and had a 307 small block that burned a quart of oil a day. I swapped it for a 250 straight six and drove it for several years. It looked pretty cool but the body style of that '51 is the best. Great video!
The first vehicle I drove was, my Grandfather's Willys, in his fields. It wasn't built for speed but, had a lot of torque. Fun fact is, it was yellow with powder blue fenders, a tubular rack on the box and, one single spotlight on the roof. I wish I could get one, as for a reminder, how a 6 years old, had a ball driving it. Thanks for sharing. EDIT: Does it have a push button on the dashboard, to start it ?
I look forward to your content more than any other on TH-cam, you're saving history, you're not pretentious about it, and you're sharing your methods with everyone for free. Thank you so much for doing what you're doing and if there's anything more I can do to support you please let me know. Also, any chance you allow people to visit and see some of the works in progress?
I live in Missouri, and I do a car or truck like this about every year or so. I have noticed that most of the problems with stuck valves are because of the exhaust being off of the engine for long periods. we get a lot of flooding so beware of motors full of water for years in Missouri. it sometimes amazes me how little you have to go through to get these things running. The last one had been under a carport that caved in. took a fuel pump, filter, hoses, belts and an exhaust donut and sent it driving. man , that feel good.
When the fan belt gave up the water pump became useless even with a full system. Great you got it running though. The pick up jeeps are kind of hard to find
Not many people pressure wash a vehicle before they tear it down and I'm very pleased that you are one of them good job so far I really like your videos, Mike
I just got my own Will It Run project 2 days ago: A mid-60's Mercury Marauder 390 and C6 trans, that sat in a shed for the last 25 years! Still turns over, no water in the oil, just a splash of water in one cylinder. So I got Marvel and Deep Creep in the cylinders now, to break up any surface rust and maybe unstick the rings. After it sits a while, I'll hit the starter and blast all the Marvel outa the cylinders, check the ATF, hook up fuel, file the points, and try to start it!
My cousin who lived near Unionville Mo. Had a big farm along with my Uncle up there in North Missouri.His family still has his 1952 Kaiser/Willy's Jeep Pick up. It has the Continental Hurricane Six and 4 Wheel Drive. It hasn't ran since the late 70s. But it's engine still turns because the engine is worn out. Another of his Jeeps was his 1/2 ton 4 Wheel Drive 1966 Gladiator pick up. It's still there and it runs and drives. Last time it washed was when he brought it new at AMC/ Jeep in St. Louis Mo. It was a light blue color. It's covered all the time with mud and dirt and yuck. It gets rained on and that's good enough. It has some bed and wheel well rot. But fairly solid other wise. He's passed on but his kid's (Cousins)still keep the Farm going. Like the videos and enjoy watch you get them running. A Question though. Ever get one running and on it's feet And it runs for a little bit. Then comes apart like a cheap watch and start slinging engine parts everywhere? I have had that happen to me more than once.
Good morning from Cape Cod ⛵ had a friend that collected and restored this era Jeep pickup and deliveries, he had one that he would drive 130 miles round trip each day with a transplanted 283. Needless to say New England salt is not kind to these vehicles 😭 it's always a pleasure to watch you bringing old vehicles back to life. Keep up the great work and the awesome content 👍✌️🇺🇲
Much love from Poland. Seeing your content made me much more courageous to work on serious stuff on my car and it is great so far! And I am pretty tempted to find a good old rusty Nysa 522 van, and as you say, "get her runnin"!
Got my son saying “this old girl’s a NINE-teen so and so” about every car he sees. Driving my wife nuts. Good times in Wisconsin.

I was born in 1951, so the Willys is 73 years old. Wish I had that old Jeep. Cheers from eastern TN
Am 71. Had a 63 Willys truck with the 230 tornado OHC
The title is not how old but how long it’s been sitting so I hasent been run in 40 sun years
They are a great looking truck
Ну ты ещё молодой !😊

Probably the most DIY-friendly model ever by Jeep
Yes, and I love the front end design!

I was relieved when the fan stopped because there was a pair of pliers on the radiator getting ready to fall into it and be thrown.

After getting all these ancient vehicles started and putting them back in the field, it'll give your grandson content for TH-cam videos.
Lmao.
You should see this guys restoration and body work… he’s one of the best to do it, I can guarantee you.
