You guys have to return and give it some filters and fresh fuel. I'd love to see that old truck drive out of its grave and I'm sure everybody else would too. I was a little nervous when you fired it up because I thought if you didn't pull the valve cover and check the injector rack and it's stuck, it's not good! Luckily it wasn't so it didn't grenade the motor. I used to drive a 1978 White Road Boss with the same motor back in 1992 for a guy I worked for. Those motors were loud and gutless, and the White was hot as Hades in the summer with no A/C, but some folks loved them. Other drivers hated that truck because she was straight-piped. When I would pull into a rest stop at 3 am to rest my head on the steering wheel, it would definitely wake some folks. I remember when the truck caught fire and I didn't shed a tear. I got a new to me replacement truck, a 1983 Mack R model with an aftermarket stereo and air conditioning! I was moving up in the world!
I plan on going back. I will see if I can check the rack.
Thank you for watching
Always remember on a two-stroke Detroit you must check the rack and make sure it’s not stuck
*Incredibly enjoyable video!* It's nice to watch real life people like yourselves, not "experts". No annoying music or foul language. You both did a great job getting that old White running. Just subscribed. Nice work 🔧🔩
Thank you
Indeed. For sure. This man is most resourceful.
@@David_Richard_241 😅
I drove a freightliner kinda like this in the 70's and it was one of the most comfortable trucks that I ever drove.
Really? Looks like a death trap
COE ? give me a long nose for comfort anytime.
@@betherealdeal most cab over's of this time period gave little protection to the driver.
It makes sure you're first on the scene in case of an accident. They also have a bone crunching ŕide. Not to mention the deafening roar of the Detroit 2 stroke diesel. What more could you want. Oh did I mention the dayton hubs?
8 v71 with a 13-speed in a single axle, that thing should run pretty good, along with being really loud. You should always make sure the injector rack is free on these two strokes a lot of times they will stick wide open when you try to start them and then look out
2stroke- noiiiiisy you have to acquire a taste for that sound -always sounds just short of
Running wild-😮
Mack 350 was a better engine - but that Detroit sure had personality - don’t think any diesel
Had more nicknames- Appalachian hummingbird - Detroit leaker- etc
True statement about 1974 times were hard and we made out and we’re proud of anything we had
Did a lot of rigging back in those days - we were worried about only making out with what we had.
Awesome job Wiley..always seems this old iron wants to live again..amazing to see it pop off.. Appreciate you sharing your day with us 😊🔧🇺🇸🛠️😇

I always loved the sound of the 318 especially pulling a heavy load. I remember when it was either a 318 Detroit or a 290 Cummins . I enjoy the videos, keep em coming!
Me too.
Thanks for watching
I Enjoy watching your videos you are a lot smarter than the average person when it comes to these old diesel engines
Thank you for watching
Wiley I pulled a set of pups many but many miles with one of these old 2 stroke 318 Detroit. Can you imagine we ran team operations with these old cracker boxes. Ran Kansas City to Las Angeles turns for C F which as you can imagine no comfort at all but this was all we could use due to state bridge laws. You brought back memories with this will it start Good job ❤
Thanks for sharing that. Thanks for watching
Excellent job Wily and Jacob! Sorry to hear about the owner passing. My condolences to the family. Definitely a really cool old truck, hopefully somebody will be interested in buying it and getting it back on the road. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you
He was a good fellow. Military vet. He loved his collection

Manteep lanjutkan 👍
Those were the days my friend
I love that comment " that thing is making oil" I understand the premise. You and Jacob are a Great team. Wiley , the next thing to bring is a trimmer for the weeds. Makes it easier to start the job and minimizes picking up ticks . I love your work !
Thank you
I drove one just like that for the Georgia Pacific Corp. they had thousands of them, it was a 76 with a 290 Cummins, 13 speed, I called it "Puff"...I hauled that thing all over the N.E. and Quebec Canada....Me and Puff took many trips through Maine's notorious Haynesville Woods (Rt. 2A,....If they buried all The Truckers lost in those woods there'd be A Tombstone Every Mile)
Thanks for sharing and watching
Can't say I've driven it, but that road made fun a heck of a song!
Great vid wiley i think they used alot of these trucks for consolidated freight or roadway i like it that van trailer and that truck restored would make a awesome show truck.
I love the 70s Wily, seeing that old semi truck is like a time capsule. Amazing 👍👍👍
Me too. Thanks for watching
@DontbeWily your welcome Wily, I'm a big fan of you and Hank. You guys are hilarious, excellent content you guys make.
Might be a blessing the old 2 stroker didn't take on diesel fuel without pulling the valve covers. But. It's a runner anyway!
This makes me so happy. This is my dads! I can’t even tell you how long that truck has sat there!
I use to hate jacking those Freightliner cabs all the way over because sometimes when you got to the tipping point of the cab they would just flop right over when the cab jack wasn't working right. The push button is to override the Murphy gauge until oil pressure builds to the set spec. Can't believe that truck would have been 2 yrs. old when I worked on them. Been a diesel engine mechanic for 47 yrs.
Thanks for sharing
Thank you for watching
I was a kid when these were on the road. Used to see these all the time back when White owned Freightliner, before White went bankrupt and Daimler bought Freightliner. The COEs could turn in any tight spot, but they were unbearable in the summer due to the heat coming into the cab from the engine. But in winter, they kept you nice and warm. I miss seeing those Trucks on the road.
Thanks for sharing
Thank you for watching
from the waist up you would be warm but my feet felt like 2 ice blocks
If I'm not mistaken white motor company was a well established truck builder out of Cleveland Ohio and consolidate fright ways had a design for what would fit their business objectives and they made a joint effort to provide a tractor that would best meet their needs for the service in which they were looking for I know this is going to sound crazy but CF built and designed the light weight cab and white supplied the chassis which the name white freightliner came from pull up the start of consolidate fright
@@mrt601you are on the right track. FREIGHTLINER built their own trucks from the ground up, same with their boxes and trailers. They entered a marketing and sales agreement with white motor company, that is when the White FREIGHTLINER logos showed up. The partnership ended in the late 70’s or early 80’s, I don’t remember exactly when. My dad had one similar to this one, 4 head lights, Cummins engine. I used that front grill door many times to check and add oil. The cab tilt system is the big handles release the cab locks, the small tee cable pulls a safety catch for the first couple of inches of rise.
1970s Australian trucking magazine I saw a White COE a was smitten from then on. My mates all coveted the Kenworth & I wouldn’t be swayed.
Love hearing the old ones fire up again after neglect 👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks for sharing
Thank you for watching
As always great video. Was worried to death this thing was gonna run away after that long sit 👍
Thanks for another great video. It was interesting and enjoyable.
Nice work wiley and Jacob. You got it to run after many years of sitting.
Good work guys.
Thanks for everything Wiley.
Take care and be safe.
The Iowa Farm Boy.
Thank you for watching
Nice job Wiley! I can't wait for the next video!
Why do we all love cab overs so much?!!
You all are a true blessing to watch
Great video
Love to see it running around
Good for a farm truck
Could haul lots of hay and equipment to the fields
Your not with Hamilton farms anymore good to see you again god bless be safe ✝️🇺🇸 God speed peace to the owner ✝️🇺🇸
Hank and I are still filming together. I just doing a little in my own sometimes
Thanks for watching
Love the sound of an old detroit 2 stroke diesel, music to my ear's.👍👍
Makin Oil, I understand your version. Lot of them ol diesels specially screaming jimmeys used/leaked lots of oil. But I was service oiler on the Trans Alaska pipeline. Making oil ment crankcase was filling up with diesel fuel.
Well it sure is good to see you Wiley That thing is making oil Love to watch you work on the old iron Stay safe and God bless
Thank you and thanks for watching
Drove a 59, a 61, 66, 71,73,74, some 80, somethings. Where you checked the rad cap, that’s the duct for the “ frontal air “ intake system. The air
cleaner on a Cummins would be a heavy steel box mounted on top of the engine. It was rare to not find broken mounting brackets that hadn’t
vibrated apart and didn’t need welding. I think that’s a 73 inch cab. Up in Canada, Kwickasair trucking ran a fleet of these from Vancouver to
Montreal running team. 57 hours one way, 2750 miles. Lots of wrecks. The 66 I drove was a slab cab. It was an 8V 71 with N55 injectors. So it
was rated at 280 hp. I pulled a spread 4 axle trailer with 84,000 lbs on the deck of glass windows. You knew where all the hills where.
Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching
Fascinates me how these old diesels start right up after sitting for decades. Tough engines
Me too
Thanks for watching
I'm with you Wiley I think you need to go back with fuel filters and drive it out of that brush. Somebody will get a truck worth restoring with that one.
Grew up in a 71 with a 350 cummins and later a 77 with a 400 big cam. Both were 15 speeds.
Wiley. I love your knowledge of these old trucks it’s very interesting to me. Your videos are a real hoot, I love em…thanks
That looks exactly like the White Freightliner cabover I started out on except mine was red and white. No power steering or seat belts. The frontier days of trucking. I've been retired for over 21 years now. Mine had a 903 ci. V/8 engine and a 10 speed Roadranger transmission.
Story I heard when I was in my 20
They referred to them as 90nothings. Fuel squeezers and that Poole truck lines bought a lot of int trucks with 903 back in the 80s. Mr Poole said if they got him a extra mpg or saved him a gallon of fuel a day it was worth it. He had like 1200 Trucks at the time
Thanks for watching
Yes, wiley, I have only seen a few 57-foot trailers and 1 61-foot trailer both belonged to the frito lay potato chip company... They are very rare
We pull alot of 57s in and around TX, they just aren't marked..
Cool will it run video wily & Jacob 👊👊 That's a nice old rig, God bless.
In 74 I was the nam arrived first of January great job great video thanks Wylie and Jacob
Thank you for watching
A fabulous old truck. Love those White Freight shakers. 🙂 So cool Wiley. Looks like an early 70's for sure. 😎👍👍 Should sel this one to the Gentry boys in Tennessee. They dig on these old 70/s cabb6ys. Sleep on your side but only if you cant find a pup tent somewhere elese lmao
Ain’t that the truth on sleeping
Thanks for watching
Danm good job Wiley
With that tree growing through the lowboy, I think it's sat there a minute or two!
The whole making oil saying came from old truckers that had the beautiful sounding Detroit diesels were always covered with oil because they leaked oil like a well! And were really loud and underpowered but had the best sound ever!!💗💗I love Detroit diesel engines!
Thanks for watching
Thank you for taking me into the interior❤
Mr. Ed the horse was the lucky charm.
Great video Wily. You and Jacob make a great team!
Thank you
Man, I haven’t driven one of those White Freightshakers since the early ‘80s. I’m missing the pneumatic start right about now! Diamond in the rough she is!
Thanks for watching
Might be lucky it didn't pick up fuel. Those detroits are super famous for the rack sticking and running away when started after sitting for any length of time. Its easy enough to check, just pop the two nuts off the valve covers and see if you can manually move the rack and also check and make sure that the injectors are hung wide open.
Looks just like one of the old consolidated freightways trucks from years ago
would love to have a old truck with a 325 Cat, 13 speed RR and single axle, would make a great tiny home transporter. compared to long haul trucking, I could never wear it out.
Not a trucker or a pilot but I love old trucks and old planes.
It's a beauty if you don't mind going deaf when you run it. Just for a moment I wondered if might run away! Very involving content; a mix of memories, wisdom and experience along with saving truck history. Thanks for posting and I very much look forward to the next one. The 8/71 was a very popular long haul engine in Australia during the 70s and 80s, usually with a 13 speed behind it through to double drives. Good on the flat, not much chop in hilly country. But just soooo loud. From South Australia.
Thanks for watching
Dipstick is in the front grill
Cumins its in the rear of the cab
Love those diesels
Dip stick behind little door on upper left of radiator grill - I drove one just like this in 1977 for 'Clay Hyder Trucking', Auburndale, Fla. hauling Tropicana out & Swingin' Meat back.. It was a straight 250 Cummins, w/a 10speed Spicer & 4:11 rears. It was a twin screw.
That Freightliner reminds me of the AMT model kit with them lights and airhorns.
Great job Wiley and Jacob, only found your channel yesterday. Great video and you got the old girl going.
Glad you did and thank you
What a cool little tractor!!!
Loved the warning about wasps! Hate those buggers!
You have to hold one of those buttons in until the oil pressure builds up.
That’s what I thought I just could not get the words out of Mind to my mouth
Thanks for watching
Iconic classic nostalgia... white mack brockway deutz peterbilt IH mercedes... used to see them on the roads in my teens... never now.. miss them.. 😢😢
Hope this is saved. Never was into diesels too much until i started watching videos on the 8v71s and 12v71s. Wish i had the expertise and resources to restore one!! Ashame they dont make these anymore, so awesome!
I hope so
Thanks for watching
Wow just found your channel..subscribed. watching you get these old trucks start and back to life again is awesome...regards from uk. Stuart.
Thank you
Thank you for your APPRECIATION to your subscribers Wily.
You said '72 Good guess. Off by 2 years but they all look alike in that era. I used to drive 'em with the 350 Cummins 9513 like that one, and a few of 12513s. We had a twin-stick 5 & 4 w/ a Detroit in one of our older tractors, and one Astro with a 318. The 5&4 had no jake. The rest did. We ran West Coast mountains, pulling 40' and 24' doubles flatbedswith all of 'em. Thanks for the memories. I share your heartfelt nostalgia for these old girls.
Thanks for sharing and watching
What no knocker loose or panther piss in your pickup? I probably offended someone viewing this video. But I was born in 59 and learned to mechanic by the time I was 12. I remember all these things. Thank you for another nice video
Really enjoyed thanks for sharing
Awesome job wily and Jacob
that was awesome they sure dont make them like that any more touch old rig pretty cool keep the videos coming
Thanks Wiley. Great video. Love the old White. My kind of entertainment.
Thank you
Lovely find
On those Detroits I like to pop the valve covers and make sure the racks are free because all you need is a couple stuck open injectors to have some real fun and trying to shut down a screaming Detroit that's wide open get's the blood flowing and makes you know your alive LOL!
Nicely done Wily👍👍👍👍
Reminds me of a old consolidated freightway tractor. They had a bunch of these
Just another great video enjoy watching you keep up the great work
It was fun watching you walking by the dip stick 20 times . And on the fuel cap pull up the tab first then turn . There a valve under the cab on the fuel line going between both fuel tanks that’s the cross over line it probably close so he can run on one tank . Pour fuel in the fuel filter and reattach there air in the fuel line maybe . Retired truck .
Declaring a senior moment

Love watchin you struggle over that cab release, to funny.
I had not heard anything about 57' trailers in TX, and usually pay attention to truck stuff. I remember a year or so ago that Wal-Mart was going to a 60' trailer with some weird cabover, but I never heard any more about that. When I first got into the trucking business in 1979, the 45' 13'6" was a new thing. Damn. I just made myself feel old. (But you mentioned in the '77 Mack video that was the year you started your senior year of HS. So we're the same age.😄)
Lol
Thanks for watching
Back in 1991 I was with a company called Fleetline out of Lancaster Tx and we pulled 57 foot dry vans across Texas Oklahoma Arkansas Kansas New Mexico and to Florida. We had to sneak across Alabama because they weren't permitted. Arkansas wanted a 24 hour permit also. Lol so we'd go around those scales frequently. There were actually a few that were pulling 57s around. Usually hauling lightweight bulk freight such as Owens Corning insulation out of Waxahatchie, Tx. The tail swing was the worse part of pulling them if your tandems were set forward... But always make sure to slide them all the way back before loading or unloading so that the landing gear wouldn't come off the ground when the forklift entered the trailer. Every one that I pulled were made by Wabash trailer company. Since then they kind of faded away. I haven't seen one on an interstate in decades.
@@rsumsixtyfo6766 Learn something everyday. I have never even heard them mentioned. I did some outlaw stuff of my own briefly early on, but decided I just did not need that aggravation. Thanks for the information, Man.
Great job getting Cabover started walley👍👍👍🚛👈
Thank you
Thanks for watching
Hi Wily. I learned to drive in an old freightliner similar to that one. Tandem, 290 Cummins, 13 speed . Been a fav of mine ever since.
Thanks for sharing
@@DontbeWily Yes sir, thx for the video. Appreciate ya !
Your the Man , Wily
Haha, love the temporary field patch cables..
Great work Wiley …
With a lot of effort, perseverance and hope, anything can be done. Good luck dear friends.
Yes, thank you
It amazes me you get these antiques to start wow.
Thank you for watching
Your Dad will talk to you more the Older we get. Thank you for a great video. 👍
Awesome video, Wiley. I appreciate you sharing, buddy 👍
Thank you
It fired up wiley
Another awesome video keep up the good work
Now that right there is a Real truckers truck!!😎👍💗💗
Finally got the Time to watch Wiley, sure is a Sweet Freight Shaker COE. Good Find Fella’s, as a ‘73 Model Year Myself, I approve. I’ll catch you on the next one. Keep it Safe Out There Fella’s
Thanks for watching
I remember when those babies were everywhere.:) I miss seeing them. Thanks for finding them!
Thanks for watching
@@DontbeWily sure, I like your vids.:)
I love the Townes Van Zandt song White Freightliner.
Wily I enjoyed the video. My late husband loved the older freightliner's.
I am glad you did and thanks for sharing
I am sorry for your loss
Watching last night see you chuckle when it starts amazing can't wait to hear when u put filters in
Thanks for watching
Good job another successful will it run
Amazing, old iron
Thank you
I had a 1975 mine had a bigger sleeper The lock switch on the dash was usually a front brake limiting valve and the 2nd start button came on the detroits some would squirter a shot of either because they were harder to start on cold days the 335 cummins would have a compression release down on the shift island that was nice also there's a door on the passenger side grille to check and put oil in it,I'd be amazed if it started because Detroits won't self prime you have to get all the air out of the fuel lines and filter its a real pain if they suck air..
Thanks for sharing that
Thank you for watching
Mr Wiley , Herr's Motor Express based in Quarryville Pa use to run cabover Freightliners some had 318's most of them had 250 or 290 Cummins with 10 speed Road Rangers in them.
You give the ole girl some TLC new filter it run on just fine great watch gentleman 👍👋🇨🇦
