Well this show has a great start! Has all of the requirements, a few problems overcome, a little blood shed and some good sweet tea ! 😊 I think the rest will be good too, naw, I know it'll be good ! Thanks for sharing and take care. 👍
She moves! Just to clarify, that is a 230 cid OLDSMOBILE engine. The Pontiac six WAS used in 1938 only, but not in 1-ton and heavier trucks. If it's a Pontiac engine you would see the Pontiac indian cast into the driver side block. GMC brought out a new OHV six cylinder in 1939 but they didn't have a suitable engine that would fit the light trucks up to then. They would not use the splash-oiled Chevy engine...Ken. People have to keep in mind that before 1965 or so, GMC wasn't just a badge-engineered brand like they are now. Lots of things were different from and better than the Chevy trucks.
@@1963impala2drWaylonWire no kidding hey, he thinks we are old. least your a badass. When i was a kid I told myself I was never going to get old. 60 going on 30.
By the looks and sound of it, That Sweet Southern Tea made Kerwood a genius. I could only imagine, If you put 3 to 8 drops of it in that GMC, It might load itself!! Keep on doing what you doing
That chain deal true the wheel works from my experience as a wrecker operator not having snow chains here in North East Tx and having a roll back stuck and I even tried using my wheel lift and bed to push myself out. I'd like to thank that older gentleman who taught me that trick.
Excellent Work, Gentlemen! Been there and done the Same thing around here! Ain't Nothing much Better than going out with a Great Friend or two and bringing an old car/truck/etc back to Life and back to the House, IMHO, of Course!
I can only imagine what that 702 GMC V12 Sounded like in those Med - Heavy-duty trucks in the 60 - 70s! I want one of em so bad with the GMC V6s. Boy, that ole GMC sounded good for being about 81 years old! Looking forward to seeing the next EP, Also Kerwoods Idea on the Rims we used to do that On Our Old Dumptruck!
Mon that truck has been sitting for years and you got to move it out the hole it was sunk in after all those year's love the truck. It's a good canvise to do what you want with it.
Man i wish i was alive when these old cars were on the road, nowadays cars are gone after 15 years, Or even sooner because of rust. You cant beat the build quality of the old made in the usa stuff!
Back in an era where they even styled work trucks. I get so wistful whenever I think about that. And yeah you can jump a 6v off of a 12v system. It's usually the gauges and accessories that don't like 12v while the starting circuit is fine with it. My '46 DeSoto taught me that. Great video guys!
Man I love that truck absolutely love it! One of these is on my bucket list of cars . I would keep the original patina, freshen up the brakes, tires, and put a stock 283 with ram horns in it, and a 4 speed. Perfect truck .
Enjoy your videos, I’m still working on my 1926 Dodge. Just got my motor for it. It’s a 1955 Chrysler 331 hemi to go in it with triple nickel heads. Keep up the good work
Timothy Newkirk Sorry but no I don’t But you can see picks of it on Instagram if you want to see it in my name Jeremy Rumley Thanks for the good words enjoy
My 35 Chevy Low Cab fired right up after 50 years hiatus, coulda drove it home, but the original owner wanted to go to the license dept to make sure it was legal. This was over 30 years ago. Can't wait Ken........................
Now you gotta find another skeleton of a truck for that flathead. That was a cool one. Edit: I'm with you on the polyurethane, that semi gloss stuff works wonders.
I heard the comment about the six volt system. In high school I drove a 52 Caddy. 6 volt system. I lived in Florida and always had trouble starting it when it was hot in the summer or what they called winter. I found a place called Ellman Battery. They rebuilt starters and generators and built and sold batteries. All the mechanics were ancient to a 17 year old but they knew their stuff. I mentioned to the mechanic my problem. Well they fixed it. They installed an 8 volt battery ( boats were or maybe still are 24 volt systems and used three 8 volt batteries) and bumped up the regulator. Everything else still worked fine. They said I would burn out bulbs a little quicker and the generator would get hot and sling the solder out, which it did, but it was a small price to pay for being able to start it on those hot afternoons
back in the 60s... my dad always bought 8 volt batteries for our old 6 volt tractors. I have a 32 chevy with a 6 volt starter that I've been running on 12 volts for 9 years with no issues.. it kicks it over quicker.. making it start quicker so it doesnt sit there and grind so it might even last longer than it would with a 6 volt battery..
My Dad used to jump a 6volt ford tractor, and a 53chevy pickup froma12 volt all the time. I still have the tractor, and have done it a few times myself. Experience is knowing what you can get away with.
my dad used to get 8 volt batteries for our old 6 volt tractors. it gave it a little extra Umph! lol kicked it over a little quicker so it started easier..
I could watch (and do) what you guys are doing all day long. Thankfully, I get to do some of it too!. In fact, I just started installing a rear-facing receiver hitch on the front of my trailer. I have a spare winch mounted on a hitch setup that’ll slide right into there and pull old vehicles up onto my trailer whether they run or not. There’s already a power point on the back of my truck thanks to the previous owner. First up is to winch up my friend’s old Dodge and bring it to him, then I’m going to go get a 1940 JD Model D tractor that has been given to me. Been sitting for decades. It’s mostly all there, except for the grill shell and cover and the pressure relief valves on the cylinders. I’ll have to post a video of that job. Since I do most of this stuff by myself, I had to figure a way to do it more easily! Of course, if you did that, it’d take all the fun out of it, eh! 😆
You fellas are a hoot and smart . Nice job with getting the old man sucking fresh fuel from a Jug in the cab ! 👍🏻🇨🇦 She didn't like her flat spotted square tires lol
Man. I wish you were my grandfather or something. You two birds are awesomely hilarious. Absolutely full of it!!! Nice truck. That’s gonna make a sick rat rod. I have a Chevy boom truck from the 50’s-60’s that has a w-6 in it and it’s a freaking beast of a motor.
A fire-extinguisher and no Brown? I almost expected a tire to pop while you were workin' on the carb! XD Glad it didn't though! Heh, that's a new way of doing tire-chains, I like it!
Great video ignore the young kids (15 to 50) that know it all but never even touched a old car or truck. The real car ppl know your skills and appreciate the hell outta you sharing what you do.
Absolutely fantastic video you just got a new subscriber I just love old iron like that the new plastic cars today can’t compare keep the videos coming
And we're off! I'm sure I'm not the only one that can't wait for regular videos on the build or just planing if you're not like me and just let them run their course. LOL
@@1963impala2drWaylonWire o I have. Thanks for taken the time to make these videos im sure its alot of work . I do love old cars and trucks. And to see people still keeping them around is a great thing .
Unheard of but it was 58 degrees this morning in Augusta, GA. The cool came after a couple of days of rain. Hard to imagine three weeks we ended a 24 rainless period. We also had high 90s temp to go with. Bet you know all about it! Using 12 volt just makes 'er spool up faster and you can't break a 6 volt starter just watch rpeek. Can't wait for take two!
its 90 now. most of my videos are posted a week or two after filming.. I've been running the old 6 volt starter with a 12 volt battery in the Rockabilly for 9 years now.. causes some people to get all bent out of shape haha.. but the more "bent" they get.. the better I like it! haha
well done !! you two are a rare find on youtube. Very few do what you do. LOL when you said "I'll take my belt off and use it if needed, Lord knows its long enough" And your buddy says "oh, it's a Serpentine belt" I about spit out my ice tea, laughing...
My Uncle had a V12 Lincoln in the barn since before I was born. When I was in High School I called him to see if he'd sell it to me, but he traded it for a running VW diesel the year before... :(
That old GMC was saying what the hell is Toyota !! The last time she was running down the road was probably with her own kind.That is fun rescuing the old iron,You need an Apprentice to clear out the weeds the wood in the back so you 100 year olds can work on the important stuff.lol Thanks I enjoyed that.
Well Dad Gum...what A teaser! I could have watched the antics of this 2 Live Crew...all night long. So when do we get to see the out come?!! ...Newk from Kentucky
I wud fix in ta set a spell when I come cross y'all playin' wid de'ol Jimmy.

Most parts on the engine are the same as Pontiac, so jus buy U some tires, an taker for a spin! ✌☺
The 6 volt starter works just fine and dandy on the 12 volt battery in my 53 Merc 1 ton. Push the starter button 1/2 as long to get 6 out of 12 volt battery.
I have a customer who has a '38 and a 46' Chev truck,the earlier one has a Isuzu Diesel turbo engine and ten speed ,stock front and rear axles ,brakes etc but a bigger booster. It all works great. I did some derusting for him in my Electrobath of a few spare hood panels and some of them had the same GM badhe and some had "maple leaf " . These were Australian made parts so are quite different to yours in the front .
Oh my God man use your belt or the fan belt around the clutch pedal to pull it up, I did that one time I was drag racing a 56 Chevy against a 65 GTO and I won, get back to it and load it up.
More about your video on on square bodies ..last year July 19th the tornado that hit us at work sent my dodge truck to Hemi heaven..To replace it, I just wanted a old c10 i can work on like my old VW's. I found a 1981 I will look at and unless i find something really bad with it, i will bring it home on Sunday. Not looking at it for a daily driver , but when I get done with it, I could use it for that reason. I told my son I enjoy working on VW's but my last big project I want is good old American Steel , I think this truck may be that projects.
"It's not that we don't know, we just don't care"! I about fell out of my chair laughing.
