Today - with permission from the owner - I work on a 1964 F250 truck that had been sitting for over a decade. Not going to lie, I instantly fell in love with this truck.

Think u should do both colours for the hat👌🏻🤘🏻
The LIGHTER logo on the hats is my fav.
Nice dumper lady...
How much is this system?
Cool PSA, Mook!
I can't wait to get my plow truck 🇺🇲
You only get a plow truck if you behave at daycare
Did you get your Red-Ryder BBgun yet??
Yes I want the hats
Yeah...that Ford is my favorite of those on the video...😀
i cant wait for the videos of it lol
Regardless of who's channel, it's a lot of fun to watch Mook and Kevin together. I don't know why but the funniest part was the screwdriver disintegration.
I agree.... Mook and Kevin together are better
They are great, just found them a couple days ago and can’t stop watching!
Mook's ad reads are adorable and under appreciated
THEY DEFINITELY SHOW THEIR LIBERALISM.. & KEVIN IS PART OF BIDENS MILITARY...

Mook brings a warmth to this old widowers heart. A lady that ain't afraid to get grease under her nails or bust a knuckle turning a wrench is a rare and wonderful treasure
You two each gained a subscriber today. When mook got out of the truck and smiled. I instantly recognized that you suffer from the same affliction as myself! My main passion is for dirt bikes bit I like anything that has been put out to pasture that still has a chance. Your content is very relatable. You two act naturally. It's hard to describe. Keep this up! It's definitely unique and interesting.
You talked about how getting this one going was “rough” but you guys literally have done engine swaps by a cornfield together.
When Mook popped out in the Burglar outfit, I snorted Beer all over my phone!!!!!
Wolf snorted Jameson...... that shit burns :D

You two are a pair of enablers for the illness you both have, acquiring old farm trucks left derelict. Great job getting the old girl to run & drive. What a team. Thanks.
Not gonna lie, actually got teary eyed when Mook drove it round the field. What a fantastic machine!. Thats why I follow Mook and Kevin. For the fantastic vehicles they save, and the end result of seeing something come back to life. Well done guys! x
This was a fun video. I love the interactions between you both. Mook has such an awesome and natural sense of humor.
Two talented people with a sense of humor that can seem to fix any older vehicle. Excellent and thanks!
Why are Mook and Kevin so heckin' charming? They are like the neighbors all of us wish we had.
They arent
They're definitely meant for one another.
know if they were my neighbors every truck would be running lol
“ a girl and her dump truck” AWESOME.
also loved the Mook burglar lol
I dunno about day-caring Kevin. But I would definitely day-care Mook. Lots of cuddles available. CUTE!!!
Man, I'd love to spend a day or two with Mook and Kevin. Something tells me it would be unforgettable. Great vid, thanks, and stay safe.
I got no pony in this race, but I am constantly amazed at the joy these kids bring to me; like watching yer own succeeding.
Good luck with the '64, hope she goes home with you, and God bless.
Absolutely love those old 50's 60's Ford trucks. They just never seem to die, they will run with hardly any maintenance. Those Y blocks were a real jewel, they have a sound like no other and ya just have to love them. Great video Mook, I really hope you can get it.
I had a '54 Ford Crestline and a 292 out of a truck (Forged crankshaft)that got put in.T-85 tranny and 4.26 rear end. I got 16 tickets in that car. Street raced the heck out of it.
WE WOULD LOVE THE HATS!!!!! Either color would be wonderful!!!! The mercy line is amazing, and the content is even better.
In the 1950s, a guy who didn't live that far from my parents house had an old truck (from the 1930s/40s) sitting in his yard. My Dad stopped by the guy's house one day to ask him what he planned on doing with the truck. The guy told my Dad that the truck hadn't been run for several years, but if my Dad could get it running, the guy would sell it to my Dad for $10.00. My Dad managed to get the truck running, so he got the truck for $10.00. This was before my time. I never saw the truck, but I have a photo of my Dad standing next to the truck. Enjoy the videos of you and Kevin bringing back "junk" trucks back to life!
You guys are a joy to watch, Kevin is a blessed man to have such a fantastic Mook by his side. Love ya!
FOR VOTING ON HATS - Like this comment for the LIGHT hat patches.
dislike for dark?
@@ooinvsaoo there’s another comment for dark but it’s getting buried since people seem to like the light hats 😅
Up for a light one
I like both 👍
@@BillMulholland1 yeah me to lol
I must say I’m a Holden / GM guy but that y block sounds very cool. I haven’t heard one of them before and it has an awesome note, even with (or maybe because of) a probably clapped out exhaust! Nice trenches Mook.
Great revival! and Mook's commercial was so unexpectedly fantastic that I actually watched all the way through. Nice job you two!
"Damn, Mook's got a dump truck!" is not a sentence I ever expected to hear.
I love that Kevin still can respect it bring mooks video and doesn't step over, he's got a perfect medium
I’m in love with how this Y block sounds!!! What a sweet piece of machinery
Mook's skill level just keeps going up and up. Super cool to see her journey.
Yes, get this truck! It truly is a diamond in the rough. And that working radio and working speaker???....that alone is enough in my opinion😃
Haven't watched one of Mook's vids lately. She has become quite the pretty young lady. Raising a daughter that's one of the best welders I've ever seen and a good mechanic, you wake up one day and realize she's not your little girl anymore. You and Kevin keep up the good work. I love these what I call old start vids. Thanks guys.
Y'all are awesome! I just started watching y'all's junkyard digs channel about a week ago, and I plan on starting my own channel at some point. Y'all give people like me hope. My first revival will be my wife's 1984 Z28 Camaro t-top that hasn't run in over 10yrs. After being fully repainted by a guy that was supposed to restore it. He let it sit and didn't finish the job. So now it's my turn. Keep turning wrenches y'all are an amazing team and an inspiration to all is motorheads.
That was amazing and the most amazing part of it was the total lack of smoke coming out of that Yblock,, that's surprising as hell..
I really love this channel! making old cars making run again, a good sense of humour, no dumb showing-off-shit... just great entertainment. keep it on and greetings from Germany!
19:53 lol You remind me of a little Hamburgler here. Mook, you have the best sponsored video skits there is. I often jump past them in videos but yours I watch. 🤣
For real, i thought the sponsor was going to be freaking McDonalds
@@DrAiZeL Hahaha
Same here that was actually funny 😄😆
that T bird looks like would be fun to get running as well. guessing that has a 429 CID W C6 trans.
I will watch Keven by making him work on my disel truck.
I'd love to see you guys go back there and revive that F150 with the 460 and a plow. I'd want that one! Depending on if it isn't rusted out underneath and the transmission shot from plowing.
That's got my vote too. Minus the plow, small lift, real bush/sand/mud tires and I would be a happy camper. Not crazy on the lift, I want it to tow a monster camper.
As an Iowan I would bet it's extremely rusty and that tranny is shot. Especially if it's a plow truck.
@@colinklang yes
Mook! "Time to do some sketchy sh!t, do dah, do dah." That would be a great shirt idea!
Would love to see a restoration of that dump truck - great find! Hopefully my wife *won't* hear about your day care idea - but if she does I'm going to make sure a lazy-boy, x-box, microwave, loaded freezer and beer cooler come standard - that would probably work out pretty well... 🤣
24:47 OMG !! Kevin was under the hood and I thought the truck started up but it was Mook pushing out a burp 🤣😂🤣 HILARIOUS !!
Lol Mook says " we are not getting a plow truck" lol boy was she wrong there hahaha 😆 🤣 ❤️❤️❤️
If anyone can get it running it's Mook and her lovely assistant!
amen the lord is a good assistant.
He's pretty, but can he type? 😆
Check out the gold T Bird for me when you break from the trucks in another direction? Thanks, I appreciate that!
I bet it has a 429.
@@thecynic807 It is a 68 T bird and does have the high compression 429. I used to have one.
@@ericbrown5354 my dad had two. One for parts. The main one was a light blue and white interior. The other was gold. It was wrecked by my uncle. So he bought the blue one and put the transmission (C6) from gold in the blue. It was so fast. And the gold had a 390.
So my uncle wrecking the gold one a blessing. 429 and the C6. Damn thing could do 180 mph. And from a dead stop not hit second till 65mph and still bark the tires.
The dark patch looks better on the hat! I'd like a few when they are available if yellow go ahead with production.
Love the hats. Darker patch looks better to me. Love the new "Smokey" shirt. Will you ever offer larger sizes? I wear a 5xl shirt. Keep up the great work. Love you guys!
Definately enjoyed this one. Looking forward to the plow truck now. I love it when old trucks (and cars) get a new life.
I was shocked to see Mook turning the cranks. Mook is much stronger than i thought.
These are the best years of Ford trucks. I would love this truck
No booger scope for two episodes in a row Mook. Sadness ensues! Pick up your act girl. =D
99.99% sponsored ads annoy the crap out of me and i just skip through them…this has been the best one I’ve ever seen. Loved it. Oh and the dark patch.
So cool to watch. An inspiration for myself and my daughter to do the same and find some lost vehicles and bring them back into their glory
Mook: Ready?
Kevin: Yeah
Mook: Ow!
I love Mook. She’s got an old timey face like a Little Rascal. Adorable and a great watch. She and Kevin are terrific together. I’m a sucker for a woman with mechanical skills and interests. 😊👍👍
Kevin: I wish I had my thing full of gas, I don't know where it went
Mook: You did bring your butt
Keep on hassling each other… it keeps relationships alive.
Mook also brought her butt so one of them needs to get some taco bell and start ripping some!
Great, I learned on the "Y'' block. And I also loved that old tea-pot carburetor. That motor is also the first engine that I broke and rebuilt.
I would totally scoop this up, get it running and install a camper on the back with the tilt mech in-tact to dump out any unwanted visitors. Pure gold.
He just needs standing in the corner with one of those jackets that fasten up the back on..😂
Have a great weekend guys..
A new Mook vid on my birthday, this is the best present ever!
Happy Birthday!
Called it out on Kevin's channel to get simply safe as a sponsor when he mentioned people walking into the shop like they own the place.
Kevin, the oil pump on that engine is external and the valve can be shimmed for more oil pressure. Great video! [Edit] Also, when you change oil the first time,swap one quart of oil for a quart of ATF. Won't hurt that engine, I'm not endorsing this treatment for newer engines.
My smile only got bigger while watching, you guys bring so much humor to the revivals.
Kevin: "i wish i had my thing full of gas, idk where it went"
Mook: "you did bring your butt"
Kevin: "wooowww"
🤣🤣🤣 Honestly, amazing
Clever girl ! So loveable .
Came here looking for this comment LOl
Mook this is one of your best videos so far in my opinion I love your random corkiness it adds something special to your videos.
You dressed up as a burglar was hilarious to watch.
I am looking forward to seeing what else you guys find on that property
I catn’t explain why, but that was one of your most fun videos! Great job!
Haha I like that security alarm system. Need an audio recording of an old guy yelling "Get off my lawn!" 🤣
Oh we gotta see the rest of those vehicles. Save as many as you can! 👍
Where are these trucks at? I need a pickup. Would love to build a wood burner
Dammit Kevin, that’s why you can’t have nice screwdrivers!!! 😂
Hope you can buy it. Would make a perfect tilting flatbed for other revivals. Love watching you both.
Hell yeah you go girl!!!!
If it’s possible you need to get over there and start helping. Be some more good exposure for your channel too
I had chills seeing that truck drive around the yard for the first time in ?? years. Badass!
You guys are a genius. I like to watch you bring back to life some real old machine park for many years. Am a old man 72 x years. And I c u guys bring them back. Wish I was in your area so get one a those old stock smile. Blast of d past
There needs to be more Mooks
The rest of them are kept in Area 51. This one escaped, and is probably classed as a threat to the US population, but she is now too famous to make her disappear
Ok, about that day care... Perhaps it'll be a learning post-school... Well learn new dutch oven cooking & first class knots!! Lmao!
Nice vid ! Keep up the content!
Mook, you looked like the bad guys in an old Looney Toons cartoon. 😂
My wife and I love you two. Remember Mook's the star, and Kevin is the sidekick. Lol. 😂
I had a '78 Ford Econoline 150 van and it had a step like that, loved it.
great vid mook and kevin,dark leather patch better,your so lucky to find these old cars and trucks,in UK anything left outside just rots away,you would make fortune sending trucks over here,huge yank truck scene here.keep up good work guys
It depends on where you're at here in the states. Here in Maryland you're lucky to have a car or truck for 15 years before it starts rusting out and I do mean rusting out. It usually starts on the backside of the panel. So by the time you notice it the panels already too far gone to repair it. America is a big country though. Alot of people don't realize how large we actually are until they come over here.
@@JoshSmith-wo7zw I'm from Ceciltucky and I can attest to the fact that Maryland can turn any ride into a rustball with paint holding it together...
78 custom, the only Ford that had that grill with round headlights!
So refreshing to watch you two. everyone needs a positive on there day. You are fantastic
Gas it up girl.
I love the sound of those old trucks starting for the first time in years. I lived in Silver City Iowa 12 years ago. On the west side. There are a lot of scrap vehicles in that area
Pretty lady, pretty truck, pretty sunset - what isn't there to like?! :o)
Another Hecker-Wrecker! Yes!
Let me hit the 👍🏽 button, then the ▶️ button!
Just leave Kevin at home alone with whatever amount of Busch Lite is enough for 12 hours in Iowa. So like 200 cans. He will be OK.
What could possibly go wrong?
It actually just comes out of our tap 😉
You should call it the "Easy Ford", as in "It's a girl, my Lord, in a flatbed Ford" from the Eagles' song "Take it Easy".
But then they would have to drive to the corner in Winslow Arizona
@@Alcochaser Sure, but it would be a nice drive!
as long as you two have been doing this you should know if drums are stuck always try to back up first to break them loose. keep up the good work
Mook and Kevin together are the Ford miracle !
From France 🇫🇷
Honestly tho these heckers always bringing a smile to my day
Okay seeing that like has made an okay day a good day
Love the truck, nice job Mook! Looking forward to seeing more of this rig.
I love this truck. Engine & color scheme, interior ... it could clean up really good... hopefully you can make a deal on it. love ya'll
It's a girl, my Lord,
in a flatbed Ford!
That was great! I really hope you will be able to buy that sweet old rig, she needs to be in the Junkyard Mook Digs fleet! 😊
The sound of that turning over brings back memories of when I was little, my dad had a 1956 Mercury until 1963.
When do we get to see the Bronco again that Kevin went out to Arizona and picked up?
I figure cars in Arizona wouldn't have serious rust, if any rust at all.
Kevin is a bold man keeping his hair covered face so close to a carb while pouring fuel down the throat. Can’t believe he still has eyebrows! Love the content!
Just the fact that she thought she had to tell her husband that was a windshield that crack me up🤣🤣🤣🤣
Also the mook commercial ad is world class ,super bowl worthy,loved it
That red cab over around 6:00 is awesome!
great content, as usual you two creating some laughs in the world with so few of them :)
The dual reaction of Kevin and mook when the camera almost became a gymnast made me bust up laughing out loud to the point that I woke my wife lol
hope u buy it mook, it sounds nice, looks nice, + i would enjoy watching a mook wash + vac, then a good old mook fixup ,with help from the day-care boy
Sit home every day, glad to watch Kevin, I do like that vintage Ford truck 64/66 so maybe if I can drive it now and then, will baby sit Kevin for free !
