If it had pressure to blow that line it's got plenty. These had a passive oil filter system and would only filter a small amount of pressurised oil at a time. That line is straight off the main oil galley to the filter which then drains right back to the pan wont change the oil flow at all removing it just wont filter it. Besides these could idle all day long at 10psi and run fine.
Travis, just IGNORE the Ken's and Karen's who have nothing better to do in life than to pick apart how someone talks! These losers have no life so they get on here and troll the sites looking for things to gripe about. Then they leave and go back to sitting wth their heads in a place never meant for heads to go! I love watching you and your dad bring old iron back to life that otherwise would just be left to rust away or get scrapped.
I have a 61 Apache short box that came with my property. Guessing been sitting at least 15 yrs since the owner died in 2010. Same motor in it. Pretty rough but perfect color combination with the blue and white. Would love to see it running again just it sits for now since not motivated to work on it.
You and your dad make my day ! I hope one day me and my son or even my daughter would like to do stuff like this with me ! Keep up the awesome work y’all
Great video as always. I about spit out my coffee when your dad said is it still sparking and you said ouch then he said still sparking. That's something my dad would have said.
@Theetravisb What do you guys charge? I have a 55 gm that's been sitting for 15-20 yrs. It's got a 455ci from a 72 Buick century in it. It ran GREAT when I parked it. No leaks, no slips, didn't burn oil , no knocks. Not even any lifter tics. I parked it when I was in college because the breaks were shot. Started it every once in a while, but haven't done that in over a decade.. She's got pleanty of "patina ". I'm going to tear into it myself this spring, but this might be right up your alley!
Okay thanks for the grammar update. I think it's totally ridiculous that you get hate mail over that. But I googled it. So both are correct depending on which way it is used. Here is what I found: Dad and I if that's the subject of the sentence. Dad and me if it's an object. There are great yard in southeastern Tennessee. That will take you almost across country. There's a possibility of to 1970 mustang. One being a Mach One and the other being a mustang GT. Both of them have an incredible story with just a few thousand original miles but they've been setting and not the best circumstances. They are around the Carolinas. I know where they're at. You could team up with another TH-camr across the country. That way you have some ground support that would be nice. How about Colorado a great place to visit. The cars would be straight and more or less rust free. Little fella. Just bought about 10 59 Chevy's maybe a 1960 as well. He is in California. Just some ideas if any of the sound interesting I'll be glad to give you the details. None of these sites include me. So I have no angle except for our I do enjoy your channel. I think I may have mentioned this before but there's a guy in Tennessee that is doing the thing that you propose and driving out within a certain radius and getting cars and trucks to run. I'm reasonably sure he would be open to assisting you in something like this as far as locating. Have a great day
Another incredible resurrection from Travis and Rick. It's incredible that you guys got it running in a day with that many frozen and clogged parts. Always looking forward to more!
Hi Travis and Rick,, Great video and trying to get this old truck going . This Truck does want to live again it's turning over but needs more care... It's great 👍 to hear running.. Great job guys ..Max and I loved this video,, Keep them coming.. Peace ✌️..
You were looking for a new name well.Max and I 🤔 thought of,,.. Travis/Ricks auto channel. Travis/Ricks auto repairs. Rick/Travis auto repairs and finds. We hope this is helpful 🚗🚗🚗..
I think this thing owes it's survival to being a leaky, worn out motor when it was parked. That was a lot of caked up oil! I bet it was burning a lot of oil, too. If it had been a fresh engine when it was parked, I'd bet it would be locked up by now. Anyway, great video, love these old trucks, and can't go wrong with a 235 stovebolt Chev. My grandfather had a 61 Apache 10 he used as a work truck for almost 20 years in the oil business. Was a great rig, wish it was still in the family.
Atlas was a name used and owned by *Standard Oil Products* . Standard fuel / Service stations , here in California & across the country they sold there Atlas parts back in the 40`s 50`s that included, tires, shock absorbers, batteries, and more. Sometime in the early 60`s Standard gas stations changed there name to, Chevron stations here in California, they are still this name today.
Heck yeah Compared to what gov & big corps do, they (gov/media/bleeding hearts) have no business complaining about what an old vehicle does. Not to mention other countries
I really like you guys and your content but it gets so hard just listening to these crank and crank and crank when it would fire most the time with just a little shot of starter fluid for the weak spark,please try it once in awhile and give the starters a rest thanks for working so hard for us ❤
Your pump oiler is fine. I have one as well, plus the kind you have to hold upside down and squeeze the bottom to use... Way to go!!! You got this running again!! Yes, it needs more work, BUT, this runs now!!!
I sold Atlas batteries and tires at the Exxon service station back in the 1970's. The blue one was a mid range battery. I bought the red ones for my own cars.
Back in the day when we use to get something like that started we use to pull the coil wire out of the contact to increase the coil output always worked for me
I've got a 1960 GMC that is an absolute MESS! LOL, I'm in AZ City, come on up! Great video though seriously. Glad to see more desert dwellers posting videos!
You and your father are a inspiration. My fatherinlaw had a old chevy with a 292 cubic inch engine . It had over 550,000 miles . Motor and trany was original.
old is a good 6 cylinder chevrolet engine , here in Brazil we had it with displacements ranging from 3100 cc , 3800cc , 4100cc and the engine that came out in chevrolet trucks destined to work in alcohol plants breaking the 4900 cc called sugar cane , I have a chevrolet Opal derived from the German opel rekord with the 4100cc engine, European design with American engine
A 235 has a lot of oil pressure. The oil filter is made to restrict some pressure. Please change the oil. Hydraulic brakes factory on the 61. Torsion bars on the Apache 40 ? X box frame?
Willin to Betcha. He could have run this Truck all those years. With regular. Maintainence. These old Chevy Sixs run forever if yo use um right. Is either a 235 or 261 six
Although I don't favor this style of getting something running without at least flushing out the dirt in the top of this engine... I am just guessing by location of distributor that its a 235, which is a great motor. I get called on calling engines motors but I drive my harley and its called a "Motor" cycle.... not a engine cycle, Its general motors, not general engines, and this continues with ford motor company... ford for a fact did employ a lot of people back far in the day.... if he called it a motor and can build a engine out of old farm stuff, good enough for me. I do hope they clean up under the hood, maybe re polarize the voltage regulator and get it charging again. Check around the back forties of local farms and find some better pieces and parts like a hood. Porta power the fender away from the tire and add some of that wind that blows around down there in the tires before moving it... makes it a little easier on the clutch thats had rodents peeing on the insides of the bell housing... Not sure when chevy decided to make their engines all parts interchangeable for the bellhousing from a six to a V8 engine with using the same bellhousing off of the six along with the flywheel as well. Its for sure on the 292 engines but now the 261 again is not my strong suit. It sure would of been sweet if this old girl had had a dump bed on it for farm work. I am sure that she is in need of a lot of grease and oil to make it feel like its a driver again. Two speed rear ends were real popular so that part interchanges if you pull the spring package with it. I've owned every year of chevy ford and chrysler products from the early twenties to the first part of the nineties. My best overall rigs were internationals as they were just well overbuilt for strength. I have even owned the much bigger trucks as in pete's, kw's, freightliners... had a fleet of kw's on the highways for a good many years. A accident in 2005 with only small insurance .... took everything I owned away and been a cripple every since that day.
Yeah Atlas Batteries I remember them back in the mid 1960s. had a few of them myself they were kind of a rebuilt battery when battery shops did that service yeah goes back to the 1960s and I am old enough to remember started driving in 1968
The ignition key and set up is the same as Holden (GM Australia) used in the late 50s, early sixties. If you turn the ignition to on and pulled the key, you didn't need the key to start it or turn it off. Thus, the raised switch shape of the ignition switch. To lock it, you just put the key in and turned it to the lock position, and pulled the key. My dads old Holden, being very rural, hardly ever had the key in the ignition 😂
Even 1987 I see it not too much to make this rust and stuck..although it is in dessert ..I do not know may be the wet wx. affected its frame and inside.. Anyway thank you always..since you intertem us by your videos.
2:30 At that point I'm buying it, towing it out, and working on it after I have paperwork in my name. Once I own it, it is mine to do with as I please, and that means if it runs I'd get to enjoy the fruits of my labor of getting it running again.
i talked to the guy selling it. i offered to help him get it running and he said a youtuber is going to do it. only reason i even know of your channel is cuz i was told by him about you. i had forgot about this till youtube suggested it right now.🤣
my dad had a 1961 chevy apache short bed and i went to start it up and it fired right off like you said people jump the gun by adding new parts what a waste of money
Cool old truck but you basically showed us the whole show in the intro. The whole point in watching is to see if it runs or not and you basically told us everything in the begining.
Little disappointed you gave away too much in the intro.

Great job, guys. That old 6 wanted to run, and was happy running. Quite a testament to how well it was built.
Yeah! Great engines. Thanks for watching
@@MaxGiganteum You missed it at 31:15 when it had plenty of oil pressure and blew that hose.
If it had pressure to blow that line it's got plenty. These had a passive oil filter system and would only filter a small amount of pressurised oil at a time. That line is straight off the main oil galley to the filter which then drains right back to the pan wont change the oil flow at all removing it just wont filter it.

What do you guys charge?
I have a 55 gm that's been sitting for 15-20 yrs.
It's got a 455ci from a 72 Buick century in it.
It ran GREAT when I parked it. No leaks, no slips, didn't burn oil , no knocks. Not even any lifter tics.

Started it every once in a while, but haven't done that in over a decade..

Travis,
Appreciate your definition of "will it run".
Great old farm truck.
Glad you agree 👍🏻
That Chevy will start, those old Chevys never die!!
I was surprised there wasn’t a scorpion in the cylinder
Also, why the heck would you get hate comments for saying me and my dad like I don’t get it
Haha maybe next time. And people got nothing better to do I guess
Another incredible resurrection from Travis and Rick. It's incredible that you guys got it running in a day with that many frozen and clogged parts. Always looking forward to more!
Thanks Roman 👍🏻👍🏻
This wasn't as good as the el camino, but very close. well done.
Might be a 261 big 6 ? Captain bars cast into the side of the block

That was a bad deal pouring that oil in before pulling the valve cover.. For sure drain oil before starting..
Man. you blew it, don't start the video off with the truck running, that's the fun of watching the video, to see if it runs !
IC Engines for life - love the video. I airplayed the video to my widescreen to get the full effect
Impresionante Chevrolet
Que hermoso camión de los mejores los felicito mucho desde Costa Rica,
Hopefully you will remove the valve cover to check underneath
You should get it driving, and powerwash that engine.
Im more surprised that the radio turned on in the truck than anything else in this video
man that thing runs great!
Your pump oiler is fine.
I have one as well, plus the kind you have to hold upside down and squeeze the bottom to use...
Way to go!!! You got this running again!!
Yes, it needs more work, BUT, this runs now!!!
It's awesome to see you guys get that old truck going again
Thanks for watching man
Atlas batteries was sold by Standard oil at their stations they also sold Atlas tires
Loving this truck!
Much more interesting than Bad Chad‼️
Dont crank it so long in one session. Your gonna burn up the starter. Lol.
As far as I can remember Atlas batteries were made for Standard Oil
Wow that was awesome you got it running is the guy going to keep it
Your Dad sounds like James Brolin.
Funcionou e funcionou bonito
Well done considering the state of the motor under the tappet cover, keep up the good work. Once again boys bloody well done.
I sold Atlas batteries and tires at the Exxon service station back in the 1970's. The blue one was a mid range battery. I bought the red ones for my own cars.

A 235 has a lot of oil pressure. The oil filter is made to restrict some pressure. Please change the oil.
Hydraulic brakes factory on the 61.
Torsion bars on the Apache 40 ?
X box frame?
Atlas is still around, they're named Atlas Power Solution. They do whole-home systems, 12-volt Lithium batteries, etc.
That’s probably where the old truck will stay. it probably will never get messed with after you guys leave.
Willin to Betcha. He could have run this Truck all those years. With regular. Maintainence. These old Chevy Sixs run forever if yo use um right. Is either a 235 or 261 six

I do hope they clean up under the hood, maybe re polarize the voltage regulator and get it charging again. Check around the back forties of local farms and find some better pieces and parts like a hood. Porta power the fender away from the tire and add some of that wind that blows around down there in the tires before moving it... makes it a little easier on the clutch thats had rodents peeing on the insides of the bell housing...

Its for sure on the 292 engines but now the 261 again is not my strong suit. It sure would of been sweet if this old girl had had a dump bed on it for farm work. I am sure that she is in need of a lot of grease and oil to make it feel like its a driver again. Two speed rear ends were real popular so that part interchanges if you pull the spring package with it. I've owned every year of chevy ford and chrysler products from the early twenties to the first part of the nineties. My best overall rigs were internationals as they were just well overbuilt for strength.
