Dang it Patrick, thank you. that was a hell of a deal, and another ol relic rides again. We have all been waiting for this episode, and well worth the wait. Thanks for sharing guys. well done. be well.
Glad you enjoyed and yes Patrick is awesome
Patience earns its own reward; in this case a running and drivable 1946 International pickup. This has been an extremely engaging and interesting series. Thanks for sharing the experiences and press on.
* Oh Thank The Lord !!! Now I can move on to another rescue vid . 🥴 You gentlemen did a fine job resurrecting that IH . If that truck has a soul it's rejoicing. It thought it had reached the end of it's days. 👊😎👍
Ah the dynamics of father and son projects. “Quit takin it offa there!”
Don't give me wrong, I buy American whenever I can; however, I must admit that almost all companies in the U.S. selling restoration parts for historic vehicles, let them made in China or Taiwan. Despite made in Taiwan is still the better bet than China, I had not made any bad experience so far with such parts. They fit and function perfectly. They are made to the original specs. Maybe I just had luck?
I have not had that experience
@@theetravisbme neither it seems like the bolt-holes just never quite line up so there you are doing fabrication on a brand new part
Old American cars? Yes. New American cars? No. All new American cars just aren't as reliable as a Toyota or Honda. Still better than any German brand, though."
How much of wrong feeling and perception guys. Talking bad about china and germany (evil rigth) america good. Japanese better, its all the american doctrine
The Problem with german cars ist that they are offen not build in germany anymore.... also quality has ging bad subce 2005 even in germany ...vw 1.6 egines with 75hp from the 80sand 90s were unkillable...but today the egines go Bad under 100.000km....
Just watched all the videos on this vehicle, absolutely enjoyed it, thank you, also like the fact you give us a bit of history about your country.
Thank you
That was a super clean door, probably the nicest part on that truck now. :D
Yea!!! Thank you for your dedication to this old girl, she deserves to have another day in the sun on the open road! Great job guys! Love your channel!
Thank u for following along 🙏💪🏼
Great job, i just found this series, I absolutely love the International trucks. I also appreciate the time spent with you and your father. Great to see how your Dad loves working on these classics and spending time with his son! Cherish this time you have.
God Bless you both.
Another great video with lots of detail! Keep in mind that excessive high heat will anneal steel. You don't want those steering rods bending under stress.
De Portugal gosto muito de ver carros antigos a serem recuperados
Cool video. I'm an old truck driver. Back in the day that restaurant was a happing place they had great food plus an antique shop and a suvnear shop. Used to be a busy place.
What happened?
I believe the guy that owned had a heart attack but I'm not real sure.
Wow that’s crazy. How cool though
I’m so happy you guys work on old internationals I have 4 internationals but a couple years later
Yes! Been patently waiting on another episode on this old rig. Excited to watch.
So glad you got a door!
Holy moly, how am I two month's late on this video.
This was a well anticipated video in this series and boy it didn't disappoint. Thank you for your valiant effort to bringing this ol' international back to life.
What an amazing rustoration!
Like I was watchin the Waltons...hi Johnboy....Great work again...What a classic...G'night Mary Ellen
Glad you enjoy thanks
Thank you for your APPRECIATION to your subscribers Travis, nice outro
First truck l ever drove, it was my father’s ice delivery truck l drove it while he delivered the ice around town.
I was ten, and when we finished l went to school with the neighbour by horse and dray.
Thats beautiful.
Some of the older trucks you used to have to heat the hinge and bend them. I don't remember which ones for sure
Awesome absolutely love watching your show!! 👍🏽👍🏽
YAAAYYY!! i just knew there had to be a door out there somewhere! many thanks to Patrick for the parts. now where would i go with his one? i'd bang out the dents (no bondo!) then cut out and patch the rust-outs (patch-paint 'em with original color green) paint the interior a tan/light brown color (match the seat, leave the dash and steering column as is) replace the cracked glass. remove the running boards. new whitewall tires, paint the wheels original color green and add baby moons. great job guys! i love this truck!
Nice job fellas! We all been waiting for the '46 update! Now, while you contemplate the next move on it, give us some action! It seems you guys always find some nice desert vehicles hiding out there.
Finally you got back to it! I have been waiting for a while now
Nice work 😊
LOL! LOve the ending! About like when you think you have it licked you get one more kick in the butt!
Wow ! The "Turnin Rust" channel has just brought back to life the twin to this truck . This is amazing . I thought this was the same truck.
The shirt technique always works
Beautiful job. Can't wait to see more videos soon my friend. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friends. Fab On. Weld On. Keep Making. God bless.
Very tidy job gentleman! I grew up in the 50s and there were a lot of thee trucks on Oklahoma farms and in the oil patch. The railroads also had Binders in their inventory. Tough, very tough old trucks.
Thank you so much ❤
Amazing
Hi guys good to see you got the parts .. cheers mate🇦🇺
Thanks for following along
Mr. B. Here ! You have shown in a small way how parts for many of old vehicles are fewer & fewer out there ! 🧰🛠️🪛🔨⚒️🔧 it takes time to bring them back , nice job ! 👍👍 (👁️👁️) Thanks
Yes parts are real difficult to find if you are missing them
@@theetravisb Mr. B. Here ! My 1958 Olds for many years I look for OEM parts & here in north east the yards are all but gone. Good luck on completing the truck .
Absolutely love this old truck.
The truck's steering components almost look like they could go to a go cart or golf cart. Crazy how these old trucks were built, but it was adequate for the speeds and weights it was expected to operate at.
Great job . This truck is so awesome. I'm glad you got it on the road again. Your videos are to cool. I really like how you do what you are supposed to do with these old rigs,get them running and drive them.
Reminds me of Sanford and Sons truck.
Had one of those on the farm back in the sixties. Ours had the hand crank windshield wipers that were fascinating to a little kid.
Two tons of ground cow feed and half a dozen of the neighbor kids coming back from the feed mill did her in. Who knew that it was to much strain on the old girl.
Dang. That’s an interesting story
You are getting there. Great work!
Nice work on the truck..that truck is awesome looking..
Don't get any cooler than that. Been with you since you started the channel, and only getting better.
Thank you for being a loyal viewer
Hi guys. From dead and buried to riding the range . That's amazing, you can t write this stuff. I really think the old steel is so much better than the recycled Chinese materials. Well done . I don't think that truck would last too long here in Ireland. The tin worm would beat us. 👍
Oh yeah it’s way better than the Chinese stuff
Sure it would last in Ireland, Niall! Just make sure you only drive her on the three days per year when it's not raining! :P
Thanks for sharing. Good content.
I built my own little tool for taking those adjustable steering links apart. Just cut a small piece of 3/16" steel to fit inside the slot of the adjuster and then weld it to the face of a big nut. That way you can just tap it into the slot and then use an impact wrench on the nut. Works pretty good.
Lmao the flat tire & “that truck looks cool like that”
Great job, love your channel. Their are a few other channels I watch, but all they do is get the engines running and take too long to do it. You actually get these trucks back on the road.
Thank you for enjoying and watching
I can remember when all you needed was a set of STANDARD wrenches a couple of screwdrivers and you could repair 90% of your problems now you need a snap on truck to do a tuneup
I’d like to see you knock out the dents in back fenders.
I noticed that you did not put any grease in the fixtures when you reassembled them. I sure hope you went back and did that.
Yes it will get greased
When does the v8 go in, that's the first thing that came to my mind.
Great job!!
Great to see you get these bits. It might be that the hinges had come from a accident damaged truck and may have been a little out of shape. It would explain why the old owner cut the door to get them off. I hope we see more of this truck.
Just catching up on this project. You say you didn't touch the drivetrain... when I was rebuilding my 40 buick, the fuel and oil pump were diaphragms in the same housing, run off the crankshaft. They had cracks and leaked fuel into the oil pan. I was able to drive her, but when I went to change the oil I got something like 12 quarts from a 6(?) quart pan... because it had been gradually diluted with gasoline. Just something to check, especially if the pumps are like mine, in the same housing. That was an exciting disposal. Lol.
Kinda looks like the type of a truck in a horror movie chasing teenagers on a dirt road!I LIKE IT!!
Man, of all the times yo have royalty free music playing, the first drive was the worst time lol
Great to see progress on the ‘46
I love this truck!
Better than wd40 on those really old thick parts is paraffin wax aka a tea candle. Get it hot and let it melt in, smoothest bolt extractions👌🏽
i think that the reasons new parts don't fit as well as old ones from a contemporary truck is because they weren't made from the same tooling. that tooling probably doesn't exist anymore...anywhere. an exacting an expensive re-tooling would be necessary, and there is not enough money in it for that to ever happen...ever.
I’m concerned that the paper said 2014 but the mustard expired in 2013 😂
This will probably be an amateurish and stupid question but is it safe to drive a car with rusted frame like that, would it make it drive worse or anything?
I was curious. What did you end up using for a gas tank??
Another 👍🏻
Not sure how far back you monitor Travis, but I've been really enjoying your content. Your IH rebuild reminded me of my Studebaker farm truck rebuild. A few things that I found very helpful and very wallet efficient during my rebuild: WHITE VINEGAR - When you got lots of time, less money, and want to reuse parts then the acetic acid of white vinegar chemically converts rust to a salt so all you're left with is whatever good metal you started with. Was very successful for me in helping me free up frozen wheel cylinders and bringing original fasteners back to finger spinning shape. I cleaned cooling systems with it and it was really my go to. Much as your IH I ended up being able to clean up and rebuild all the original parts. Drawback is it does take time (up to 2 weeks), parts need to be completely submerged, and after the vinegar bath parts must be neutralized in a base solution like baking soda water for about half the time of the original soak or they will flash rust immediately. EVAPO-RUST - Another submerging liquid to remove rust, but it works in a non-acid way to it's very safe and it's very fast. Sometimes as quickly as just a few hours to overnight you'll be left with just good metal again. Stuff is like magic. Drawback is it's expensive, but it can be reused for awhile and if it's stored in something with a lid then it will keep it from evaporating. THERMO-CURE - Made by the same company as Evaporust, it is a cooling system derust and cleaner. It comes in a quart jug and you just pour it in and then fill the rest with water. Vehicle can be driven while it's in there working. It did an amazing job cleaning all the rust from inside the block of my Studebaker. The process it uses turns all the corrosion and nastiness into a fine particle in suspension so there's no worry of clogging passages, radiators, or thermostats. I gave it about two weeks of driving to work and then flushed it out with about 12 gallons of distilled water. If you capture the old water coming out you'll see all the nastiness that it's cleaned out. Keep up the hard work brother and thanks again for the content.
Thanks for the info and for following glad you enjoy .
First off, Love your builds and watch every one of them. I went to the KOFA restaurant in 2001 driving from Los Angeles to Jerome AZ in a 62 VW Bus for a campout. I think KOFA was short for King of Arizona. The food was good in the middle of a dusty Arizona evening and we let the air cooled 1641 cool off. Good times>
Lotta Heat sounds like the stage name for a dancer? At 21:00 your camera lens if very dirty.... Could you move the rear axle back to center the wheel in the wheel well?
Very cool and looking great! I think we all really enjoyed the “factory fix”.
Awesome! I randomly remembered this truck and looked it up glad you got a door and those other parts! Now you gotta take the dent out of the back of the cab and rear fenders😝 get you some stock steel wheels and some matching bias tires and a new grill and it’ll be lookin good! Clean up that wiring too with some cloth/asphalt loom and friction tape.
Guys I need help with the distributor in my 1947 KB 1. Could you do a video on the ignition, timing etc. Much thanks.
enjoyed the video...
i'm surprised that when the brakes were done a while back that the poor condition of backing plate was not noticed.
in a perfect world using heat on a nut and bolt to loosen it would involve heating the nut (or threaded portion) and cooling the bolt. because heating a hole in a piece of metal will expand the hole and cooling a piece of metal will shrink it.
You have great perseverance. It's nice to see how much patience you have.
Thank you
Band a big flathead screwdriver (1/2inch tip) at the end at 90degrees and youheave the perfect tool for the steering linkage caps.
It's been 5 days now are you still planning the road trip or not yet ps film your self changing the tire that blew
Yes I’ll get there
Cool and God bless you
This International truck has beem a New Life, but i think that is very interestng you put some Green paint on it and try tô plane some whiskys and corrosion. 😊
Just came across your channel, my dad and I are currently in the process of rebuilding a 52 international pickup.
I know you want to keep it original, but it would look cool with custom bumpers. I'm seeing semigloss black.
Snap on makes a nice 1/2" drive bit for turning those slowed adjusting plugs.
It's hard to watch a rookie work on something with the wrong tool for the job and other obvious things rookies don't have a clue about.
Dude I 27:14 27:14 learn a lot from your taknics. I call you Fidel because you look just like him. 😊😊
Wow... That door was probably the first thing that car has hauled in decades...
Did you just say "we use standard and they use metric"?
Oh boy... 🤣
I appreciate that you didn't edit out the honing indecent.
That happens to me all the time (thats what she said).
wow so glad you found a door. what acool truck great work on the hinges lol. God bless
46 seconds ago!
Love that truck! So glad you boys done it like that and not a full restoration
I’ve been working on the very same truck and had to do the very same thing to the door hinges.
The old truck looks great, you guys have done a good job!
camera is too far away its hard to hear you. thanks.
How about getting an old lawn mower gas tank to gravity feed to do your test starts?
Great episode
Hey! Just wanted to say we are love your channel AND are actually live close by to you 😉 but just wondering about that clear coat you used on this truck, the Flood stuff, how have you liked it so far on there? Thinking about using it on a project and just wondering how long it lasts before needing to reapply
Yeah we got it from Home Depot and it looks good but if it’s outside it needs another coat after like a year.
Just finished the series, great job! What about the title and has tank?
This is my favorite build you've done. Just kinda cool that the old truck has life again. If it were me, I'd spend just one more day banging out the fenders-- not to make them perfect, but just so they have shape.
Nice pickup to restore
What a rattle, there is still a lot of work to be done.
Love your vids. I've been watching them oldest to newest. Sometimes the volume jumps up high. But your content and camera work are awesome. Also, your Dad rocks. Glad you guys get to work together.
I remember being around 8 years old playing hide and seek and hiding in the wheelwells. My PoPs had a '49 or '51. I also remember it being laden with cinder block, cement ,wood, doors and toilets. We built our house in El Paso with our Beautiful Beast.
Is that a washer and dryer on your car port? And does it actually work?
Why not to try holding the exhaust pipe when entering the passenger side?
