That old Ford is still good for something. You can build a flat bed on it and make it a oiler for the rest of your toys and keep it on the farm to service the rest of your machines. Just a thought!
Howdyyawl from the land down under. The tip tray is a good fit. You did a great job on it. You'll be able to earn a good coin with the truck now. Well done. I saw your bike. I think it's yours ,Nice. I run a 2002 VN Kawasaki Clasic 1500. Enjoy your ride.😊
Good Day Matt . I am a new subscriber ,just watched all 3 parts of your dump truck .There is nothing better for me than see a young man work as hard as you did getting everything finished .Take Care ,Stay Safe .Hope to see you on an other video
Stuart Roland thanks for subbing! And I try to put out a new one every Saturday morning (although I’m thinking of changing that) but once a week still , and as for hard work, I’m flattered but it’s more hobby than work to me! See you soon!
I love watching your vids. My uncle owns a shop, but i didn't get interested in this kind of thing until maybe a few years ago. My dad learned to use a stick welder by welding together my foolish 'flintstone mobile' purchases. Wish I kept the pictures of me standing up inside an old Honda. Floor pans were gone. Learn a lot from your vids, including when not to act on deals that i might find in the future. Thanks for all the vids. Great work.
Thats crazy only takes 5 bolts on each side to hold that bed onto the frame i thought there would of been more then thst especially when the bed is fully loaded 🤔 interesting Matt 11:46 @Diesel Creek
Nice, wish mine was air brake. I scoop out of the bed a lot and have to chalk my wheels everywhere I go. My next will be a 12 foot bed air brake with a single tire drop axle
No problem bro good looking setup you have I like your excavator a lot I’m looking at mini to mid size machines thinking about buying a cat 305.5. My truck is a 00 model 4700 with the 7.3 and auto and 10 foot dump bed and my trailer is a deck over pentle, tandem, single tires. I think I could get a lot of work done with my skid steer and a smaller excavator. I’ve used a bobcat 35 long stick and I’m trying to figure out which small machine I can reach to load my truck with and stay around 12k lbs.? Any ideas?
I use nozzle dip but I also run 100% Co2 because I’m Too cheap to run argon, the side affect of straight Co2 is lots of spatter but still produces a good weld
Nice project series. Enjoyed it. I didn’t “suffer” the audio complaints others had. Always room for improvement, but you do nice work here. Thanks again for the education & entertainment! 👍
for A Touch of Class you ought to paint the wheels red and then put a black pinstripe around the outer wheel just saying I think that would really set that truck off PS Keep up the good work
i like to put heat on those cast d ring saddles when i weld them on. i have been considering upgrading my welder to the miller 252....big investment for me. i bought the milwaukee m18 mag drill. i absolutely love it. i have many videos of drilling truck frames with it. i move axles forward on trucks and the drilling only takes 20-30 minutes now. looks like the international is missing a bolt on the front leaf spring hanger on each side. i like how the subframe is spaced up a little bit from the truck frame.....less rust jacking that way. very nice build...look forward to more.
sounds like you have your settings about right wire speed and voltage settinhgs , quick tip if you have them set right you willget a clean crisp crackle as you weld
Awesome build! I have a similar truck, 2002 4300 DT466 Eaton 10 speed. All you need to do now is put an air actuator on your tailgate trip. It’s so nice not to have to tie a rope to your handle.
Shoot I'd love to move to a newer truck but the 1983 s1900 with a 6.9 isn't giving me any major problems I'll keep using it bought it out of a tree row for 1,500 had to put in a radiator the one i put in it is out of a 1978 f250 with the 460 a few pieces of exhaust pipe to change the hose size down and 4 new bolt holes we've been on the road since truck was sitting 4.5 years before I saved her from being scrap metal couldn't beat it for 1,500 with a clean title some of the truck I looked at in similar condition were running 6k to 8k at the time
great job of course don't for get the inspectors during the job -- the dogs they were there just to see the job was done right. good luck in all things you do.
@@DieselCreek I LOVE DOGS AND THAT BULLDOG OF YOURS IS A SWEET ONE,HE FOLLOWED YOU ARROUND AN WAS WATCHING EVERY MOVE YOU MADE THUS THE INSPECTOR I HAVE WATCHED YOUR CHANNEL AND WILL DO SO IN THE FUTURE IT IS GOOD STUFF.
Awesome build really enjoy your channel cant wait to get a truck with air brakes. Run the dumptruck a straight pipe in front of the rear axle and put some train horns on her well done sir
Music is a tad bit loud at times but I just turn it down I have learned a few things thru these videos. ! Plasma Cutters are simply great. And Mig Welders work very well. And I just love the dogs especially Meatball those sad eyes just kill me.
@@DieselCreek Matt just pan the music to the left and right if you want to put a v/o or sync sound with it . They will come through in the middle and the music will sit comfortably just behind . Listening to it now the level isn’t bad at all . It’s just the two sections after when you started to bolt it back together and the sync was fighting the music . I love the blues riffs your three friends or maybe you’re hiding a musical talent there from us it’s just right . From one little old sound engineer/ musician ..... I enjoy watching your videos as I think I would have loved to have been a spanner woman . I’m quite feminine and although I have long blonde hair I ain’t dumb ! Even after all these years I’m a bit of a novelty in film and tv but I’ve earned the respect of the guys without having to give up my handbag shall we say . I think they quite like telling new guys that come in that their boss is a woman 😂 I have learned so much from your videos and love the humour but you did sound a bit low , not your usual self over these last three. Chin up mate !
Hello Matt, nice to see you really bolting up the lorry back well. And both the Dogs are paying attention to the work you are doing 👍👍. The Bulldog likes to be close to you Matt. This is a early episode, later ones you have been hauling lots of stone. Good music Matt 👍👍. Good Video. Best wishes. Geoff Lewis, Wales UK, 🏴🏴🏴
You might want to think about a suction filter on the hydraulic system, keeps the cruddies from circulating and causing wear in the pump and elsewhere.
Why is that the hydraulic ram acts diagonally from mid chassis to hinged end of the materials container when the best leverage would be achieved with the ram just behind the cab?
Putting a mud flap on the lead side of the drives will keep crap of the back of the back of the cab. Rock chips, road salt in the winter and etc. What motor does this truck have, DT466?
Military Museum I’ve been meaning to get to that and just haven’t, but yes the truck has a 466 mechanical if you check out the first part of the series I go over all the specs of the international, it’s like a brand new rig
@@DieselCreek if you dont car about looks you can get some galvanized culverts and cut em up in half to use as fenders, super cheap and dont look too bad
@@DieselCreek, of course they don’t think you’re funny at the moment, they live with you! BUT, let THEM tell it later on with the ladies in their group meetings. Been there, done that. Or, in group meetings, they’ll share it and the other ladies will smile in agreement, don’t make the mistake of trying to correct anything.
Hi Matt. Love the vids keep em coming. Only welding I ever did was shop class in high school which in the late 1980s consisted of oxy acetylene and arc. Do all welders avoid arc welding now days because it weakens the metal due to too high heat?
I like the look of that year body-style for Ford rigs, I may have kept the dump bed on it. You know more about your machines though, so if you think the newer rig is a wiser choice, I'll go with your judgement :-)
If you want an easier way to drill and finish frame holes, use a bridge reamer. Find center, 3/8 first then 1/2 or 5/8 reamer. Lots easier on the hands and arms.
Next time you have to drill holes like that rap a chain around the frame and put a pry bar threw the chain and on the back of the drill and use the pry bar like a drill press but dont pry to hard dont want to brake the back of the drill
I watched them all & subscribed. Not sure for how long. But I'm in. I like what you done here. I don't care for those trucks myself, but it's pretty nice to look at. Good job. Snowman

Nice to see the back story on how it came to be. Keep up the good work !!!
Don't care what you say about yourself but your self motivated work ethic is thr greatest I've seen In. A long time.
I think that Corn Binder always made a good truck
Looks good matt love the black bed and red Cab combo looks amazing 19:00 @Diesel Creek
Just watched all three videos on your new truck!
The truck is very worthwhile and I'm sure you'll get great use out of it, well worth all your effort!!!
Thanks! She’s been getting a workout!
Good for you bud, she's a lovely truck and fit for purpose and I hope she gives you many good years of service!!
Popping in from the future- it did!

Memorial Day weekend 2021, eating Chili dogs and binge-watching Diesel Creek! Doesn't get any better than this.
i see you have a lot of help finishing up your truck . he is so cute love watching him play with ball.
Your presentation style is changing as is your kit that is getting new. Success for you and that’s great.
Nice, wish mine was air brake. I scoop out of the bed a lot and have to chalk my wheels everywhere I go. My next will be a 12 foot bed air brake with a single tire drop axle

Great video. love the over head shot at the end.
Is the international cab really that much taller then the old Ford Matt? 7:30 @Diesel Creek
That was a really good job, putting that on.
To keep the shroud clean on the mig you can use cheap cooking oil to dip it in it stops the little particles from sticking to the shroud.
I use nozzle dip but I also run 100% Co2 because I’m Too cheap to run argon, the side affect of straight Co2 is lots of spatter but still produces a good weld

Your priority is wrong if you're getting a lot of splatter

Nice so called 2 way highway. Not quite as bad as Massachusetts but right up there..
George Doolittle ya or gets a little tight for passing in places!
You’re a “can do” guy!! Admirable!!
5:55.......a seen straight out of a "Shake Hands with Danger" video, LOL.... :) Nice Job on the truck.
Enjoyed the videos of the tip body change bro. Looked quite smart when it was done.
Did a good job on that truck!!
Thank you!
Nice job Matt!!
Looking good 👍
You are the greatest! I love watching you building the world, not burning it down.
I would have way too much fun with a shorty dump truck! Thanks for the video!
Thanks for watching!
I knew as soon as you struck the arc it’s a Miller ! Good work young man!
Love this build and that truck the color scheme is perfect you should add some window tint
Nice cordless Dewalt drill you got there. If it's the 18 Volt version then I own the same one. Thing can break your wrist!!
Yes mine are 20v but still identical
Nice work!!! That will make you a fine dump truck!!!!
thanks for watching!!!

That truck really needs a visor and twin stacks
I’ve got a visor I’d like to put on eventually
Your drone pictures are perfect. Thanks !
Thanks for watching!
Nice job on the truck update.
thanks for watching!!!
Nice job, good lookin truck youngster👍
So you do have your workshop built, just saw it in the video!
It’s a smart truck now well done Matt 👍🏻
That is pretty smart duckie. Yah just pump enough with the hand pump to lift it up enough ter pour it in jack.
work smarter not harder lol
Awesome build! I have a similar truck, 2002 4300 DT466 Eaton 10 speed. All you need to do now is put an air actuator on your tailgate trip. It’s so nice not to have to tie a rope to your handle.
Yes I’d like to do that eventually thanks for watching!!!
Shoot I'd love to move to a newer truck but the 1983 s1900 with a 6.9 isn't giving me any major problems I'll keep using it bought it out of a tree row for 1,500 had to put in a radiator the one i put in it is out of a 1978 f250 with the 460 a few pieces of exhaust pipe to change the hose size down and 4 new bolt holes we've been on the road since truck was sitting 4.5 years before I saved her from being scrap metal couldn't beat it for 1,500 with a clean title some of the truck I looked at in similar condition were running 6k to 8k at the time

Hey brother i just order my first t-shirt 👕 from you today.i can't wait to get it and show maine that I watch DC
Awesome! Thanks for the support
Sounds like that ford has the 6 cylinder ford diesel motor. I had one in a F650. Not bad. A little lower power than I expected.
Military Museum the ford has the 6.6l in it, and yes she’s not exactly a powerhouse
Supervisor Meatball. OSHA violations can be overlooked for belly rubs.
Definitely got the Miller Turned up all the way
Such a good looking old truck
Nice sounds. Good Blues.

If you want an easier way to drill and finish frame holes, use a bridge reamer. Find center, 3/8 first then 1/2 or 5/8 reamer. Lots easier on the hands and arms.
never seen those, ill have to check that out! thanks for watching!
Nice upgrade. In my opinion is just need some Chrome.
Nahh I hate chrome, then you gotta clean it lol
Go for the mag drill such a versatile tool
Good truck
Wow I knew I like you for a reason ....... JUST SAW YOUR BIKE ! a Harley man and your from PA.
You’ll like tomorrows video!
I wish I could find a Ford dump truck like yours.
Put a 5th fifth wheel attachment on your old dump truck and use it to haul your equipment around on
I can’t it doesn’t have air brakes or balls to pull anything lol
Confused! Why did you not de rust and paint the chassis before fitting the bed?
Next time you have to drill holes like that rap a chain around the frame and put a pry bar threw the chain and on the back of the drill and use the pry bar like a drill press but dont pry to hard dont want to brake the back of the drill
Quite a task, but you made it. What engine does the Ford have in it? Enjoy the new truck.🤩
the ford has a 6.6L Brazilian diesel
Diesel Creek It sure sounded more like a gas engine. Cool truck though.😎

How’s the weld holding up on the Pintle hitch bracket? Just asking because you said you ain’t no welder. I’m not either by any means
Korbin Studnicki haha it’s fine good as the day I stuck it on there, I’m not bad I actually went to school for it just don’t do it all that much.

Good series. Thnx man
Why do you not use inert gas with your welder with inert gas there will be less splatter
Don't you supposed to weld that with the stick weld?
Try 18.5 on amperage and 265 wire speed. Lays down pretty nice
That's for .035 hard wire setting
That’s what I run
You should use heavy duty latex gloves around all those chemicals to prevent cancer.
What was wrong with the Ford Matt that you got this newer one?
GREAT JOB
Thank you!
Great job!
Thanks!
What motor the old ford dump truck have in it? I got a F700 with the 7.8 it still purs like a kitten
I wish that’s what it was, it had the 6.6l runs good just not a lot of power Thanks for watching!!!
Like a glove!!
Oh the stone and oh the fill. 👍

What class license do you need to have to pull a trailer behind your dump truck?I am curious
Looking good
thank you sir
Transfer Punch , easiest way to locate ctrs
15:08 Years of practice payed off, I see :D
Vein1986 right!!! And even my arms were getting tired!
Are you keeping the White Ford as a backup truck if you get another box?
Ya gotta love sweet old meatball.
