    As an owner/operator of a 1997 F800 Boom Truck, That dump truck is very much worth buying, fixing and selling.

    Thank you for giving that old cab over the consideration you did. What a jewel of a truck. Something about that truck just has a uniqueness.

    Wiley i sure love how you find these Semi trucks, that old GMC is amazing looking. I never seen a day cab that small, that is a cool looking semi truck 👍👍👍👍👍
    Wiley i think that old F750 probably needs a new Fuel pump, but it sure looks in good condition 👍👍👍👍👍
    155,000 miles on that old GMC well thats Barely broke in. I love to see it start

      @DontbeWily  3 месяца назад +3

      I remember the cabs like these
      GMC ,i think had a smaller one than this or looked smaller
      Had 238 Detroit s in them
      Sounded like they were running a 100 mph.when you hear them coming
      Maybe 45 top speed
      We called them cracker boxes
      Both vehicles are low mileage.
      I was surprised

    Wiley that’s a nice F700 , yes get that one running, too bad Jacob wasn’t there to help. I was surprised to see the GMC Astro with a Cummins, all the ones my brother ever owned were with the Detroit engine. Was hoping it had that, would have been interested in that. Another great video as always sir!

    Both trucks are really nice! You could probably even drive the Ford without a CDL. Definitely worth trying to get running and sell. If a starter can be found for the Astro, id be interested to see if it starts and runs. Maybe return to it in a future video? Thanks for sharing, Wily!

    • @DontbeWily

    After riding shotgun OTR nationwide around the age of 11 (early 80's) in a International Double Eagle I used to see these slabs pulling boxes around on the roads sometimes and thought they were broken or something, they looked weird, I worried the cab was going to fall off 😂😂😂. For a yard dog it made sense. I thought they were driving yard drogs around and I felt sorry for the guys driving them! I didn't know what "local" routes were at the time.

    The dump truck has no fire if it's a gasser. Shoulda barked off with the starting fluid if it had spark. I'd venture to say the fuel pump is fine. It seems to have lost spark.
