@@BoxcarJerry thanks Jerry! Yep she’s definitely served us loyally for many years, granted there’s where and tear you get from hauling stuff, I think the most we’ve had was 4 ton of gravel in it, oh it was hurting with all that weight and it would barely put the ram up to dump it😂. You have an excellent Labor Day weekend too Jerry, talk to you later👍🏼🇺🇸😎
Beasts are always the best trucks.. as you can tell. It's still going. Unlike the new crap that's gone.. and I miss the dimmer on the floor wish they'd bring it back.. good stuff Eddie
@@TriGogglin yeah that dimmer isn’t something you see anymore and I forgot to show the little vent/triangular shaped windows on the doors, you know what I’m talking about. You can crack one open at the right angle and ash your cigarette and it sucks the smoke right out💨🚬😂. Have a good one Pappy, stay cool❄️
@@TriGogglin Pappy I forgot all about those! We had an 86 1 ton Chevy van that we used to use for work,it had those. It had a 350 and my brother put 1 chamber Flowmaster mufflers on it, no cats and it had true dual exhaust with 4 inch tips, it sounded mean but was slow asf😂. We called it “The Race Van “😂
@@deeprunrailroad_Mike oh so your a Ford guy, well Mike you do know what Ford stands for….Fix Or Repair Daily..😂 or maybe it’s First On Race Day💪🏼🇺🇸. Regardless Ford, Chevy, Mopar…they’re all good…when they’re running 😂. Nice a 76 F350, what’s it got a 460 or a 351 Cleveland? Appreciate you stopping Mike, have a great Labor Day weekend 👍🏼🇺🇸😎
@@TwistedMacGyversTrains anyone that's over 40 can get the switch question I'm hoping. My family has been GM people their whole lives, he as long as you maintain them they will serve you faithfully. Appreciate you stopping by Frank, have a great weekend 👍🏻😁🇺🇲
All you can do is keep your fingers crossed and let them know how much it means to you and your brother. Thanks Eddie! I hope you have an awesome Labor Day weekend! 👍🇺🇸
This thing is SWEET!!! I love every bit of it keep her running as long as you can. Once they are gone you ain’t getting them back-she’s a survivor. Thanks Eddie have a good weekend!
@@lookingback6314 thank ya, I figured certain people would appreciate this video. It’s like anything, you have to maintenance things regularly but eventually Father Time gets the best of everything. Appreciate you stopping by, stay cool❄️, I’m so ready for this heat to be GONE
@@stretchlimo7275 Same here brother! I'm ready for something NEW to complain about (the cold!) Then after a while It will eventually grow old and I'll be ready for spring and summer again. I'm human, i'll admit it.
Hi Eddie, Conner would love this truck! HAs special memories! I dont know what the floor button does??? You had left a heartfelt comment on one of my post,, I am a week behind on replies,, ,I just caught up but somehow I dont see your comment! thank you for sharing what you said with me!! Im sorry,, hope I didnt delete it! Thank you for being so kind to us !!
@@NaturesFairy hey Brenda, that button is the high and low beam switch. I guess you read my post, I deleted it because I didn’t want you to think any differently of me because of past mistakes I’ve made in my life. Trust me I’ve learned and paid dearly because of them. Regardless I hope your feeling well, you and Chris have an excellent Labor Day weekend 👍🏼😎💜🇺🇸
@@stretchlimo7275 oh cool about the button. Oh my goodness Eddie I don’t judge anyone. I go by how someone treats me. You’re one of the nicest people on YT. I know you only know me from my videos,, believe I would never think bad of you. I hope you know that. Thanks for sharing something so personal and what you said stays with me. I truly enjoy your comments. You’re a really nice guy and I’m happy we connected on YT. Have a good weekend. We had a great 5 mile hike today. Was overcast but so gorgeous where we went.
wow Stretch thats a nice old truck i hear the "rat" look is very popular, i'm guessing the button in the footwell operates the window washer water maybe? i say that because i had a fiat with the window washer button in the footwell
@@DiggerEvans hey there Digger, it definitely has the ‘rat rod’ look but that’s just from years of abuse 😂. That’s the high beam/low beam switch, the windshield was fluid sprayer hasn’t worked in probably 20yrs LOL. That’s interesting Fiat had the washer fluid on a foot controlled switch. Appreciate you stopping as always Digger have a great weekend 👍🏼😎🇺🇸🇬🇧🏴☠️
Great truck! I have an 85 with a 10' dump i need to get rid of but i hate to do it because it runs so good. Doesn't look as good as yours though! Glad to see youre still working her!
@@HistoricBF this has an 80 front clip on it, the rest of the truck is a 75, not a 76 so I stand corrected. Nice you got an 85, he listen they are good to have, just as a beater, my brother has two other dump trucks that have aluminum beds, we try and not to haul demolition stuff, slabs of concrete etc in those, this thing with the steel bed can take a lot more abuse. This truck is in bad shape cosmetically though. Thanks for commenting and stopping by, stay cool, hopefully this is the last of the summer heat, I’m a 100% waiting for fall weather!
@@backalleyrailroading2835 yep the high beam switch. Yeah she's definitely old, rough around the edges but just refuses to die 😂. Have a great weekend Richard👍🏻😁🇺🇲
@@thedarkpark it’s good to have a dump, I’m surprised you don’t have one being in the line of work your in. Stay cool dude, I just kicked my AC on❄️❄️, ttyl 👍🏼😎🇺🇸
Well did you know 90% of Chevy vehicles are still on the road. The other 10% got their owners home. Lol. It's a FE 390. My son is having it restored for me. Mike
@@KerleyExpress oh Dwight I know you knew the answer to this, I was hoping a youngster might get the question right😂. It’s been a loyal workhorse for many years. Hey have a great Labor Day weekend my friend 👍🏼🇺🇸😎
@@stretchlimo7275 my nephew was taking care of some friends horses 🐎 once and we decided to try and ride one and some guy saw us trying to get the saddle on it and he stop and help us and my nephew got on it first and I'm glad I did that horse 🐎 started going wild and threw my nephew off lol every time I think 🤔 about it I always laugh 😂🤣😂
