- This GMC was used as a shed and a trash can. Come along with this amazing transformation from gross to glistening - well not really glistening.
WOW! What a difference over all !
Holy cow you guys needed a dumpster to clean that out wow you found treasures though
So true! Thanks for watching Robert, much appreciated!
I love Richard trying to keep everything and Christina trying to toss everything. Even the toilet stopper. 😂
hunters and collectors... XD
Frequent story around here! Haha! Thanks for watching John, much appreciated!
I would have kept that Cadillac hubcap for garage wall art. 😄 That was cool! Awesome clean up on the GMC! And congratulations to the new owner, he got a great truck! Also congrats to the winners of the Cre Oil giveaway!! Enjoy! Thanks for sharing, Richard and Christina! I always enjoy your videos, keep up the great work! By the way, my favorite "will it starts" were the Chevelle and Granada. 👍👍👍
That truck cleaned up nicer than I thought it would. You guys are awesome!
Thank you will!
U know, your videos are fantastic. Best of all, they come on Monday's. Brilliant. Thanks 👍😊👍
Thanks Philip! Until next week, take care!
Loved Christina's reply to saving the crapper flapper( Really!) 😊 Great job to you Richard and Christina on this old girl! Nice to know that it found a good home!! Take care!
Thanks for watching Kat, much appreciated!
Thank you Kat!
Pour truck was used as a dumpster! Looks like it had a hard life. Glad that you and Christina cleaned it out! Nice work
Thanks Randy! Appreciate you watching!
My Uncle Ray had a factory yellow 69 GMC with a camper shell. He drove it from Westminster Maryland to Phoenix Arizona, as he was working in gold/placer claims/sites, in coordination with The Bureau Of Land Management.
After long hot work, alot of land surveying, etc., we camped out in that 69's camper shell bed. We camped in a ghost town, called Erinberg, right there in the AZ/CA state lines, on the Colorado River.
That 69 GMC Ray had was a bulletproof beast. Never failed us, always ran, and that camper shell camping bit was pretty cool.
Nice to see Richard and Christina rescuing a truck very similar.
That is a cool story. Thanks for posting.
Cleaned up way better than expected!
Glad to see it going to someone who wants to put it back on the road! Have seen worse being restored here lately! That is a very popular body style.
True, a few people reached out to me about restoring it, but it ended up being too rusty for them. . Lots of people love that style.
1st thing to go would be those 1980's seats! The truck deserves a stock bench seat.
Right?! The previous owner had put Cadillac seats in the 52 Chevy. Perhaps he had a bad back? Thanks for watching!
@@christinarust6957 LOL, that was a funny reply, Christina
Yeah true, those gotta go.
Clean it UP! It will Run.
Aww Happy Birthday young man!
Thanks Anna! He's my hero! He's approaching 5 years cancer free! Amazing little man!
Good call on the numbers Vince, I need some lottery numbers.
It's brilliant you two , Christina and Richard always brightening my day , truck looks way better than expected ! I'm guna watch the first film again thanks again !

You did a great job on that pickup
Thanks Harry! We appreciate you watching!
Loved you involving your grandson!
Thanks Jim! He's my hero!
Happy Birthday Vince!!
I love this channel!
Thanks so much! He's my hero!
When I saw that charcoal starter, I couldn't help but think of the movie "Home Alone".
you 2 are definitely keepers on my youtube watch list 😁👍💯
thanks as alwaze for the video

Thanks Joe!
You're awesome Joe! Thank you for the support.
@@whattherust thanks🤗
I think that patina looks good. It tells a story!
Definitely! I am glad the new owner is not going to change it.
Happy birthday vince
Hey Christina! You and Richard must have read that book and memorized it! Your both so awesome together! Way to go!
Thank you for the kind words Steve.
Love the videos and content. Classic good people bringing back the classics. ❤️
Thank you for the nice comment William.
I started watching these videos for Richard's great enthusiasm for these old cars, but now I've fallen for Christina's beauty and grace. (sorry Richard!) 😍
It is OK Colin. I can take it.
Congrats to the winners. Great job on the GMC both cleaning and selling her..
Leave it to Christina to find a unique use for an old slingblade! Great seeing you guys again!
Right! Haha! Thanks Richard!
Nice truck when it gets up and rolling it would be more reliable than any of these new cars lol keep it coming 👍
nice job guys the truck cleaned up great well done , love your videos keep up the great work
Thanks Paul! We appreciate you!
Hello from Siesta Key Florida
Hello from Nashville!
You guys are welcome. Love your videos
I wish my wife was into autos like yours. My middle daughter grew up wanting to help me work on and restore vehicles. She knows a lot more than her husband about cars.
Good for her!
good job
That's amazing! The treasure that was below all that dust! Thank you guys for the video!
Thanks for watching Gian!
Great Video Very Popular Body Style Truck Good Variety Of Scrap That You Found The Truck Looks Good After Cleaning
Thank you John!
I just seen this truck today in Christiana tn. I traded for a f100 from a boy who said he bought this ride from you guys. Cool ol truck
Nice! I saw some pics of that F150. It has potential.
@@whattherust I got it running today. Runs great. Now to shorten the frame and put a donor roof on the cab.
Nice job,❤LoveJim J&R mobile service and God Bless y'all and your critters
The slot mags are rare. Keepers😊
Awesome video, both of you. That was a lot of work. Congrats to the man who got the truck he has a great project. Have fun with it. And also grats to the winners 🏆 injoy. Love the content both of you. Much love and respect from both of us 🙏.
Thanks guys! We have been sick for weeks! Need to catch up on your channel videos!
@Christina Rust no worries, Christina. Hope both of you are getting better.
Hey, Richard! Great video, truck and rescue! Kudos to Christina for the intro! Great work and love your channel and travels/adventures! Have a great day!😁👍🛠️
Thank you for the support Billy! We never know how these cleaning videos will be received. Some people love them, and some people hate them.
I recognized the charcoal BBQ heater right away! Used to use one years ago before the gas BBQs. 🙂
The “ Ocean Current Blue “ is certainly nicer than the “ Old Swamp Green “ . The dash is likely available as an aftermarket. You could get seat covers for those comfy seats. This would be a cool truck for slamming around town. Thanks for this one guys.👍👍🇨🇦
You're welcome Dan!
Hi from Scotland guys… We’ll that cleaned up very well. It’s has a nice patina about it.
I see that Richard rebuilt the carb, ..I would have loved to hear it running after that.
It was a marathon job cleaning it out, but well worth it. It scrubbed up pretty good all things considered. The old truck are my particular favourite. The physical presence of the older trucks, plus the V8’s are pure Americana…. And not something you see a lot of over here. You can get them of course, but folks want to make a killing out of them, and the prices are ( I think ) prohibitive.
Anyway…on to the next one. What’s next..?
All the best…
Hi John! Hope it is getting warmer out there. I have some footage of the tuck running with the rebuilt carb, so I'll see if I can fit it into a future video.
@@whattherust 👍. Thanks Richard.
R43TS plugs are used in most SBCs, definitely worth keeping around.
Thanks for the tip!
The "glass cork" is from a table server for Viniger. It is vintage
Loving and listening? Now we know why the guy drank so many Colt 45s.
That is funny stuff! You had me laughing quite a bit.
The second Carb you found in the cab is a Rochester Varajet (Variable jet) found in AMC, FIERO,.CITATIONS and some GMC trucks from about 78' to 81'. 🤔🤔🤔
Awesome! Thank you for the info!
Love the video as always, you are a nice couple and it's great that you are working together on these projects. 😊
Thanks Andy! We appreciate you!
Thank you Andy. Your comment is much appreciated.
Nice mustang brother
Thanks David. It is my baby. The only car close to new that I own.
Great vid and truck , and great team work , thanks for sharing , good to see someone taking it further without loads of mods and enjoying for what it is 💨💨💨👍
Thanks Darren! We appreciated you!
I really enjoy watching your channel and wanted to pass on the way I was taught to get an engine running in the Army. As you found out this trucks timing was off. Hint fire popping in carb. Simple fix. Pull No 1 plug. Hold finger over plug hole and bump engine over to feel compression start. Then bar over engine to line timing mark at TDC. Remove distributer cover to see what terminal rotor is pointing at. Check plug wire that is going to No1 cylinder. Loosen distributer and rotate slightly to see spark at end of No 1 wire. Lock down the distributer. Engine is now field timed. It should run well enough to get you home.
Right on!
Great show guys 😀
Thank you Lewis!
@@whattherust no problem 😊
Do a 50 dollar Rustoleum paint job on the truck.
Naw... Keep the Patina. Shows it's history & character.
15:01/ Fuel filter for a Rochester carb. Not a lawnmower.
Pretty sure I saw a 10mm deep well socket. Get it!
That yellow color might have been a county school truck painted like the buses. Back in the day each school where I lived had a truck, also the county school maintenance department had them, too. Its possible, just looking at the color.
That could be!
I find the easiest and quick way of telling if it's a 71 or 72 is by the rearview mirror, 1971 we're screwed to the cab roof and the 72 are glued to the windshield, I'm sure there's lots of other ways to tell but I don't know them LOL I'm sure the experts will pounce on this comment LOL
That is great info! Thank you for posting.
I missed the Creeoil by 1 number.. lol
Congratz to the winners !
Sorry man. We will be doing future giveaways too.
Depending on what area you lived in the beer bottles like that were called a “TORPEDO” or “BOMBER” … the name came about due to the size and shaping of the bottle. … Have a great day mate!
Those are two named I had not heard before! I will add them to my list.
Thanks for another great video. I’m glad that you show the bad side of bringing a vehicle back to life. Not glamorous at all. My question for you is at what point do you decide that a vehicle is to far gone for a complete restoration? I know anytime a restoration is done, money spent will most likely be more than what the vehicle is worth. On this truck was the main reason because of the bed being so rusted? Richard your channel is always wanting me to wanting to watch more. Keep it up.
Thank you Kevin! I decide if a vehicle is too far gone for a restoration is to take the condition vs. the demand for the vehicle. Taking this GMC as an example, a GMC long bed 3/4 ton is not very desirable. Certainly not like a short bed 1/2 ton Chevy. That limits the demand, thus the value. The rusty condition would take thousands to address, and the result would be a vehicle that most people will not pay a premium for. For me there isn't any math to it, it is all gut. The GMC could be made into a weekend "dump run" truck without much money, sot That is what I had in mind for it and how I sold it. There is a large market for these beat up drivers, they just have to be priced right. I hope that answered your question. Thank you for the support Kevin.
Those Colt 45 size bottles were called the forty :)
Piece of metal in each corner and a sheet of pressure treated plywood in the bed and its good as new 🧐😁😵💫
I agree. The supports for the bed are fine. All that is needed is a large piece of metal or wood for the floor to make it usable. It was common practice to do this up North.
Love the clean up part
Glad you liked it!
maybe find a replacement for the bed,one of the inter-changeable parts that didn't change over years and models
Nice touch having your grandson choose the competition winners. I'm looking forward to the next video. Perhaps you can help Sleeperdude (also TN) get one of his many vehicles going one day, Josh and Tosh are always buying something new.
That could happen. We are less than 3 hours apart.
Cleaned up pretty well. Looks like it was a yellow utility truck of some sort. Think they used blue rattle can paint to cover the yellow. Maybe Christina’s paint can she found on the floor. Interior looking better. Anthony good luck
I think so too. Yellow originally, then spry painted blue, then brushed green.
Nice
Man, you can get a after market top dash pretty cheap, I known you sold it but it might help out someone else !
That was 40 once. In fact I’m more than sure that one was a Colt45.
Nice GMC Buddy
Thanks. It was worth saving for sure.
It's definitely not too far gone for a restore parts are easily available for it. I'd definitely restore it
😅 I saw that! Walter white lost truck from NM 😅 Now that would be funny!
keep the slotted mags
Good choice Anthony
Great pickup archeology. Re: the paint job, my son and I brush painted a 1952F-3 pickup in oil based exterior gray enamel then trimmed the wheels and bumpers in good oil based exterior blue and it came out very good and lasted over 20 years for an approximately 50.00 paint job. Couldn't see the brush marks in 90% of the paint job and gray was a perfect color to use. I love what you guys are doing and your great conversational tone and your ease on camera. Keep it up.
Thanks very much for the support. What kind of brush did you use for the paint job? Anything special?
@@whattherust I used a very good 3 inch synthetic fiber brush. My son who was only 4 at the time used a 2 inch and I let him concentrate on the lower rear fenders which I went over again afterwards when he was out of range, but it was something he really enjoyed doing.
Yeah I see the SPID (service parts identification data) sticker/plate on the door of the glove box. This if original will give you some information as to what the truck came with the trim level and even the original color. Invaluable information.
I think that radio was from a Camaro as well.
#33 , so close , so close , well maybe next time . But WAIT , there's more ! I work for Auto parts distributor , who has their line of products, And , no , It's not the Evil Empire of O'Reilly , I was thinking about sending you some of their stuff to see how you like it . If you are interested , Please let me know !
Hi Jerome, thanks for watching and supporting our channel, much appreciated. We love to! Just know that we have made the decision going forward anything that's offered to us to try we request some to also give to viewers. We don't feel it's right for us to receive free items when you guys are the ones that make the channel! Thanks again!
@@christinarust6957 Is there any way to communicate with you off site ?
You should take them seats and carpet out and burn them
Was the beer bottle called a G I Q, Giant Imperial Quart? Those were popular when I was a teenager.
You got it man! That is what we called them back in the day!
I watched the whole video just to see what was stashed in the 30 Cal. ammo can! Anything good in it? 45 Malt Liquor, only thing worse is Mad Dog 20/20.
Oh goodness we forgot to show that! No it was empty...darn it. Thanks for watching!
Those bottles looked like they may have been 2 litres. According to a web site of a company Wineware a 2 litre wine bottle is called a Magnum. They listed the names for the various sizes. That GMC body style ran from ‘67-‘74. I think I would have one in my dream collection (junk yard actually).
I looked at it again. A Magnum is 1.5 litres - twice the normal wine bottle size. So, Colt 45 was sold in ‘Forty Bottles’, 40 fluid ounces - 1.18 litres.
That;s right. It was called a "40" or "GIQ".
I could use that caddy hubcap for my 86 deville they go for around $75 don't throw it away
I still have it, but if you need it you can take it. Just send me an email.
That radio looks like a GM Pontiac radio from the late 80s early 90s.
I think you are spot on. Probably from the same car the seats came out of.
@@whattherust back in the late 80s and 90s I worked at Delco Electronics as a draftsman. I worked in audio systems so I was around all the different radio fascias. I recognized that was a Pontiac.
I know I'm late but the hot wheels you found is a #859. Not easy to find these days
Good to know. I have it around somewhere.
That carb is a verajet 2 v6 version of the quadrajet for gm v6
Thanks for the tip!
So yeah housepaint on a vehicle. I knew a feller back in the early 90’s lived nearby he lost license and what he’d do is repaint his vehicles at least weekly with like Walmart house paint and a brush. After a few colors he moved the vehicle down the road for a different rig.
That is a great story! Thanks for sharing.
@@whattherust what was even funnier was when his current car was on the same color as his actual house. Lol.
@@One-Crazy-Cat Classic!
Excellent video Christine :) , Richard :) bottle name be Mickey on certain ounces volume too and yes carb found cab not sure Rochester type be a 2.8 litre V6 motor GM type in early years plus 3.1 , 3.3 , 3.6 , GM types some Oldsmobile plus Buick motors also 1981 to 1986 on Chevrolet Chevette , Pontiac Acadian, Oldsmobile, Buick , Pontiac like 6000 middle size cars plus small ones plus inexpensive people could afford not expensive ones like Cadillac ! Radio be out 1980 cars to 2005 of GM ! Plus Rick said vavle stem puller yes hard get Snap On or Mac Tools sells them too also that truck looks like yellow primer paint color and main paint is Navy Misty Skyline Blue body 💙 not rare color it common color till 1990's GM used! Also that Dash pad chew up yes seen one what happened most truck sat in sun to much what some people did rubbed in Vaseline with nice cloths for every time wash vechile ! That what learned years ago seen my late Dad did too his truck and cars never crack up also like new !
Hi Andrew. You are right about that carb. Those are hard to find now.
@@whattherust welcome
Scuba tanks.
I'm from out West and it's hard for me see all the rust you guys have to deal with. I feel pretty fortunate to not have to deal with that.
I know what you mean. Usually we don't have to deal with it either, but this truck must have spent years up North.
Man, nice I live in Arizona, l have a 2009 F150 I bought new. the underside of the truck looks like new, no rust here !
I think they call deuce that follow a beer
dunno about the parts (aren't those Wolfrace wheels worth anything? maybe they aren't safe to use anymore after all these years laying on the bed), but the lil Hot Wheels is indeed a Bronco. someone seems to tag it a 84? the wheels are way newer, though, somethign like 2005 or something. interesting that it still looks neat, the bottom plate is unpainted and can blossom out like crazy and become brittle...
That little Bronco is cool. I kept it!
Bottle size = flaggon.
reproduction dash pad isn't expensive and will resolve that problem.
That's a lot of junk I think I like it better blue than green neat old truck
Me too. Thanks Jerry!
have you got all 4 of those wheels
Just two, unfortunately.
40 oz
40
Put some plywood in the bed and haul some stuff! Rip out the carpet.
Right on.
Shes a decent rig needs a little work how she run richard
It runs excellent. I rebuilt the carb and did a compression test. All good.
@@whattherust can't wait to see what you guys have in store next should be exciting
Guess NOT !!
