I’m glad to see more people working on older vehicles getting them running. You won’t see stuff like this 20 or 30 years from now because these cars nowadays are disposable.
1983 was the last year for the windshield wiper switch on the dash & the high beam low beam switch down on the floorboard which was a small button lookin thing you pressed down with your foot. In the middle of the 1984 model year was the last year for chrome windshield wiper arms & blades.
Omg it's a good truck 🚚
Super pumped for this project. Love seeing old trucks come back to life.
I liked this video!
I'm so happy too 😂 northern Michigan farm boy myself square body first truck 1987 custom deluxe
Very cool project you are working on. Hopefully you can get your Dad’s reaction on camera 🎥 somehow. I felt like I was watching a TH-cam video of Watch Wes Work. Oh wait I was 😁. Looking forward to the next episode
Well done! I’m certainly looking forward to you. Getting this thing back on the road. Your dad is going to be delighted.
Pretty cool project
Once Mickey and Minnie are "launched" out the exhaust path...the "lungs" will be in much better shape...as you know! Congrats! Get you some Lucas gas treatment...change the oil/filter...get some tires...check your brakes...new set of freeze plugs...then good 2 go!
I am liking this project! Thanks Wes!!!!!
Good job getting your Dad's truck running, I honestly didn't think it would run. 😁 God Bless
Good job had me jumping up @ down 👍👍
Looking forward to the next episode
That was fun!
nice. looking fwd to it driving!
Cool project! I'm just finishing my 81 Scottsdale K20 I pulled from a field 6-7 years ago. Now it's a turbocharged beast.
Sweet!
Don't forget no Coolant
Nice truck
Wow Wes, this is great! Really looking forward to next part.
Put some baking soda and water on an old tooth brush. To clean the contacts.
Great content, good luck 🤞. Your dad will be happy I'm sure.
Yes it's an hei and the coil is in the cap. They are reliable and can sit 4 yrs and still spark. I'd check the oil and see if there's water in it and pull the valve covers and check the valve train, take a look at the plugs as well. Gm has the solenoid on the starter, Ford has it on the fenderwell, although a ford style solenoid can be used. Good luck with it, hope it makes ur pops happy!!! Runs pretty good for sittin so long. 👌
Thank u
That sounded pretty good for sitting all them years on the start up and run
Great video. Good to see that you're doing alright. Truck sounds good. I would definitely change the fuel pump and the sending units on the tanks. Definitely check the fuel lines for leaks. Same for the brakes. Have a great week.
Good job!
cool, good luck
Your coil is In the cap
Look behind the seats in trucks to see what may have caused it to be sitting...
It was a blown out freeze plug
If you need any parts Potts junk yard west of Morocco used to have alot of square body chevy trucks in there
Sounds like the ignition switch is killing the juice soon as you let off
Check the fuel pump pressure sb
Good to see a video. Did you guys get that Pete fixed that was wrecked??
check the oil and coolant.
Yes it is
Love the video Westin! Nothing better than an old square body. What kind of tool box is it that you have in the back over your truck?
The one in my truck is a Powerbuilt 26” triangle box. Got it on Amazon.
Just unhook the furl line let the pump run all the old fuel out...then put a new fuel filter on it and new gas in it and boom..there you go
It has a mechanical fuel pump
did you plug in all the wires to the dist?
Good job sod buster
May need air filter to prevent dirt from entering in 5e engine …..cylinder walls will get ruined and loose compression
Don’t worry I have one
It will backfire or run bad the 2 plug wires need turned around
Great. You need some new vicegrips
is your new shop complete?? and see you have a lot of junk behind you are planning clean it up back there??? or not???
Is there any fuel in the tank sod buster
Yes
Solenoid is bad kicking out buy a starter and a battery sod buster
If I remember right that was the first truck you drove !?!
Probably was!
What year is that truck
83
You should’ve changed that oil while it was a little hot
Didn’t run it long enough to get hot
@@WesFarms it still would’ve stirred up all the sediment in the oil
If you want to see HUGE Channel growth keep reviving old Chevy trucks…. You’ll see…
Running out of old chevys!!!
@@WesFarms You have a point there... that is true...
A little
Change the oil
Hold it to the floor
No coil
Oil cap is off
It is h e i
If you know how to drive then you should be to leave tree exactly where it is.
I clearly don’t know how to drive 🤦♂️
News flash folks these "will it run" videos. yes they will run or they wouldn't have uploaded the video to YT . Honestly these kind of videos are getting old. until they start doing the videos live where we can see the ones that truly fail to get them running ..all these are more than likely going to run by the end of the video.
Thanks for the view 😁
Vice grip garage posted a will it run on a 460 f250 and no it did not run
Hold it to the floor
