    I love the great old cars and trucks... especially this Dodge...you find and bring back to life. Your videos are a great way to end my work day. Just finished another 14 hour shift. Keep up the awesome finds and fixes...love the pressure wash too!

    You spent quite a bit of time cleaning up that paint. It looked 100% better afterwards. May I make a suggestion? Purple Power, diluted at a ratio of 1cup per gallon of water works wonders. Mix up a batch in a 5 gallon bucket. Get the truck wet, scrub it with the soap solution, allow it to set for a few minutes and then rinse it off. I’m telling you, it works wonders!
    Great video. Cheers.

    Beautiful old truck you saved there! I have 2 army M880 Trucks. Both 1977 1-1/4 tons. 1993 w350 1 ton with the legendary 12v Cummins, and soon a 1950 Dodge 1 ton dumper. Fellow mopar man here. Mostly because I was raised with them and know them inside and out. These old trucks/cars will be going long past the plastic electronic government forced regulated crap they make now days. I loved it last winter when it was -30 and the old Army Dodges fired and up and my neighbors newer Toyota wouldn't. lol Keep saving these oldies and making these great vids!

      MOPAR-" Massively Overpowered And Respected"
      I owned a 1978 W150 4x4 stepside Warlock, Truck was a beast, it had a 360 with a 4 speed, full time 4 wheel drive, sure grip posi- front and rear, 3:55 gears, N.P. 205 transfer case, Borg Warner Force One Clutch, Weiland High-Rise intake with a Eldelbrock 750 carb, Eldelbrock rv cam, Headers, with 36"Cherry Bomb Glasspacks, and riding on Mickey Thompson 12x35"x15
      Baja H-P tires. I loved that truck, there wasn't any where that truck couldn't take me, mud, rivers, snow, my Warlock never got me stuck or stranded, and I pulled plenty of fords and chevy's out of plenty of situations. I sure miss that truck. Sorry for the long statement but seeing that orange truck" yes mine was orange too" just made me want another one. Thanks for sharing.

  • @stevedorn4990
    @stevedorn4990 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    That is one of my favorite body styles. Love to see more videos of that truck. Also really enjoy seeing old vehicles brought back to life. Keep up the good work.

  • @daredevil7442AUTOMOTIVE
    @daredevil7442AUTOMOTIVE 6 ปีที่แล้ว +33

    Very nice! Id bet that the paint on that ole dodge would buff out nicely, soft compound then some good ole wax and she'll look good as almost new.......try it????

  • @MrGaryRoberton
    @MrGaryRoberton 6 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    The Government had a policy in the eighties here, no govt truck kept more than 6 years regardless of mileage. Neighbor went to see the surplus sale vehicles, sealed bid on a 1977 Dodge D 100 (Tan) 225 -6 39,000 miles (Foreman's truck) bid $1,200.00 with a bank draft for 10% and got the truck. Lucky dog. Used it for ten years.

  • @71_sears97

  • @kbobdonahue1966
    @kbobdonahue1966 6 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    You could probably brighten that paint job with a great polish and maybe rubbing compound. Just an idea, but otherwise the truck looks great for having sat idle for years. Great video, man.

  • @forterierocks
    @forterierocks 6 ปีที่แล้ว +35

    On this episode of MOPAR Hoarders...
    Love the new truck. My favourites were always the short beds. The 318 cid. V8 was always a very reliable engine with lots of possibilities. When are you getting to the Warlock? Thank you.

  • @ProducerLare

    I bought a 85 power ram w150. It was one owner truck .. it only sat for one year .. I paid $1000 for it . I put 4 inch suspension lift on it .. 33s tires .. it still runs like a beast .. can’t beat ole 318 2BL .. I’m going to put a 4BL on it soon .. with some headers .. I have to get to front windshield replaced .. replace all the seals around the windows and stuff .. but I love them ole square body trucks . I’m hoping I can get it last another 20 years by then I’ll be 50 .

    Wow brings back memories. my uncle had a 74 d 100 that was same color. bought it from a junk yard in East Tennessee . he drove that thing blowing oil back to Michigan lol. he rebuilt a 273 out of a 66 Belvedere that was balanced and blueprinted . I think he put over 500,000.00 miles on that truck.

  • @Alx2672
    @Alx2672 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I own a 78 (orange stepside) and a 91 (highlighter yellow short bed). I think these are the best looking trucks out there. Please buff this orange/red one, it looks like it will shine. Make that your next video please.

  • @bobfalfa76

    I always do a nice Comet wash first thing, pressure washing tends to stripe and lift paint. Cool truck though, seems pretty solid over all.

  • @radarw64

    • @gosportjamie
      @gosportjamie 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Dylan McCool On the video it looks like some kind of putty or something had been used to repair a damaged carb casting or union. The dirt dobbers make more sense, but some people do like "unusual" repairs for problems...

  • @Roboticdoughbull3k
    @Roboticdoughbull3k 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Here in PA we don't see old trucks with fender arches still intact, in the rear especially. This would be a solid candidate for restoration out this way. I'd just go with it, she will come back to life again. Like all you guy`s channels and keep up the good work!

  • @ronjaime3493
    @ronjaime3493 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    That looks just like my old truck back in 87, I got a 76 custom 100 back in 87 when I was in the 10th grade. Washed dishes at a restaurant for the summer and paid $700 for it. Swapped out the slant 6 and manual 3 speed for a 273 out if a 68 cuda, cam, headers, and 4.10 gears and a automatic and went out and blew away everyone in town from stop light to spotlight.

    I had an 79 orange short bed with a slant 6 - 3 speed on the column. Drove it over 200K! In fact it was 200,666.6 when it threw two rods on the highway in 100 degree heat! I started to hear it rap in 2nd gear starting about 160.000K and just kept putting STP in the crank case with every oil change.

  • @SpadeCaller
    @SpadeCaller 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    My first "new" truck was a '79 Dodge, Red, (411 Rear End) 2WD Regular Cab Pickup. It had a 360 in it. After a couple of years, it had a Holley Quad, Dualed out with Cherry Bombs and an incredible Nakamichi sound system. It looked like an old farm truck, but I ate TransAms.

  • @crpth1
    @crpth1 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Nice find and nice video.
    My 2 cents, what I do differently on my projects is.
    Always wash from top to bottom, by the time the water reach the lower side, it´s softened and comes off quickly. Doing the engine at the same time is much easier to work on them. A "cob web" or "things" filled engine bay is not a good place to work with.
    In some of them I could not even see parts of the engine/components, no way to start working on something you can´t see.
    Thumbs up Cheers. ;-)

Cleaned the gas tank put fresh gas and a battery and it started right up. After a complete tune up and brake cylinders and brake pads n shoes runs n drives great. Keep up them great videos bud greatings from Mexico.

    The very first thing I do to every vehicle I bring home is soak the engine bay down with Simple Green let is sit for 2-3 beers and soak it again with aforementioned cleaner and after 2-3 more beers I power wash the bajeezus out of that thing and it seems to do a great job and makes it easier to find leaks and you don’t get as dirty working on the shit you drag home!
