Yeah I was thinking the same thing. The front nose needs some nice covers and interior cab should be restored insulated and with a radio and I’m not sure if it has a heater core. Beautiful truck Nice sound! 💯👍👊🇺🇸🚚
Never. The overall quality of material deteriorated fast, loaders, excavators with 1000 hours looking like junk, rust everywhere, crappy component the list goes on and on. Newer stuff is brittle too.
@TheAndre8900 I'll add emissions controls and computers have added complexity and more chances to break down. I'm not saying that those things don't have other benefits, but they definitely provide a bunch of failure points. Personally, diesels have become much to complex and thus their reliability has greatly suffered.
I had a late model Bluebird Cummins diesel ⛽ powered school bus quit me cold in the middle of a dirt road on morning school route once. Had too little electrical power to keep the computer running. Corroded battery posts and cable clamps. How pathetic is that? A running diesel engine shut off by a stupid power starved computer 2 miles from the school with a load of kids in the winter.
The 1950s through the 1980s that’s when trucks where beasts the plastic computer shit there building today wish they would last as long I plowed snow in the blizzard of 1996 here in New Jersey with a 1964 Mack b81 tandem dump only used for plowing a box full of dirt with trees growing out of it a 12 plow that old BullDog Mack kept going for 3 days straight no problems at all can’t beat the old iron
Love the sound of the old diesel coming to life and settling into that beautiful raw purr. Mechanical as hell, the way real machines should sound.... 👍
Well that is kind of the idea of a cold start video, to see how the engines like to start in the cold. Of course I agree with you on the fact that it is best for the engines to be gentle on them, but it isnt much of a cold start if you warm the engine up first. I do not understand people revving the engine on cold starts though, just seems like wearing the engine down for nothing.
revving like a maniac is stupid but raising the idle to like 1500 (on car engines) is smart because it raises the oilpressure which in turn not only helps with the cushioning effect but also heats up the oil faster because the oil gets worked more at higher pressure. no revving just step on the pedal a sliiight bit and keep it there. also helps the alternator puting out more amps to recharge the battery fast. this goes for all cold started engines... cars, trucks, heavy equipment etc. even piston airplanes. just avoid excessive RPM and you do the engine a huge favor.
@@casemodder89 💯 correct, I too raise the idle on our diesel after it has ran for a couple minutes at idle to help warm it up, I usually bring it up to 1,000 rpm and let it warm up for a bit and away I go, we have a 96 ford powerstroke, 265,782 miles on it, got it when it had 65,000 on and it still runs great
I went to Oxford High School in Michigan. Yes that one ... Back in the early seventies. There was a small brick company in town. They had 4 of those lined up out front to haul brick & cinderblock to construction sites. It was the only time I'd ever seen an Oshkosh. Coolest Beasts I'd Ever Seen. I saw a loaded one once. They had the tray loaded solid 8 ' high and that beast sounded like it couldn't care less ! 👊😎👍 p.s. Correction ; Those were FWDs not Oshkoshs. Sorry 😞
@phillipgarrow2297 I'm in Clarkston. The winters been mild latety which I'm ok with. I remember the 60s when the winters were a lot worse. I love Austin's fledgling channel. His buddy Brian at Dirt Road Derelicts is fun too. These young guys know an awful lot about old American iron. I'm new to the truck hobby. Had Muscle Cars & Hot Rods for forever but I just got a 55 Dodge H3C five years back so I started watching truck stuff. Cheers Buddy 🍺🤛😎👍
I live in Romeo and I looked at those trucks all the time, hoping to maybe buy one. They disappeared and I wonder where they went to. Hopefully they were not scrapped.
@djmcconnell4848 Well the Block Company went under. Don't know what happened to the Oshkoshs. Romeo, I'm from Lakeville. My dad was an engineer at Ford. In the summers he'd take me out to the Romeo Proving Grounds to " Blow The Carbon Out Of The T Bird. I still remember that hill. We'd hit it at 110mph and at the top it looked like we were blasting off even though the speed would be down to 50mph. We'd still catch some air ! It was a blast for a 10yr old ! Cheers Buddy ! 👊😎👍
I salute you for keeping all this old iron out of the scrap yard 👍 youre doing a service to the machines and to us for letting us experience them through our screens 🙏
I worked for a county highway department in northern Wisconsin, and about 20 years ago they still had a 50's 4x4 wrecker that had a Vplow on it. It ha 7000 miles on it and screamed in top gear at 45-48 mph. The exhaust stack coming out of the hood would glow orange at night. An incredible vehicle
I'm the same age as your truck...glad we're both still kickin!😂👍 I've got the '94 Cummins 5.9 w/12 Valve P-pump also full mechanical...she'll outlive me for sure!
Back when equipment was built to last and run in any kind of weather conditions especially in places remote and extremely difficult to navigate through. I was a 88 mike in the Army and these M816 6×6's were similiar and absolute beast and I've been in some really risking situations and these vehicles never failed. Simplicity equals longevity ✌🏻🇺🇲 ♥️
Use to see these out in the oil patch in Alberta back in the day !! I swear they could go upside down if they could get the traction !! Awesome offroad beasts !!
I was trucking in PA one time in early spring when very wet snow started falling . On a steep hill , I almost made it to the top when my rig just stopped going forward and started sliding backwards . I did manage to get stopped . When I called for help , the state police sent a county plow truck to help . It was identical to your Oshkosh . They pulled my truck up to the top of the hill , no problem .
I live 20 minutes away from all the plants that build them. Love the Oshkosh concrete mixers. Love all their equipment. Running down 41 through Oshkosh you’ll see them on the back of trailers. Another cool thing is pierce the fire truck manufacturer is about 10 minutes away from home too
@ oh really? Maybe I’ll watch. I’ve seen them built but some of the older stuff would be really cool to see as well!!! Maybe I’ll have to subscribe to history on demand to see it!

I love all these old trucks you have. They are so much simpler to work on and if taking care of they will last forever. If the Oshkosh had a windshield and a set of tire chains it would be great in an emergency if you needed to get through some deep snow i used to work for a power company here in Alabama and I had a couple bucket trucks with Marmon Herrington all wheel drive and they got around really well would love to have had an Oshkosh to try in the mud and snow love your videos.
Back in the 80s, I was a mechanic in the army(MOS 63W) and I got to drive and work on some old Oshkosh trucks, the biggest and baddest was the M911 which is a 22-1/2 ton 8x6 semi-tractor that they used to transport and recover tanks, I loved driving those things around.
Oshkosh by Gosh ! It was a treat watching You use it to take a favorite snow drift for a ride. Thanks again Austin and Best Wishes to You, Your Family and Friends.
Dang, I feel sorry for you about the snow! I'm in Quebec, eastern Canada ans we still haven't got our first snow yet; heck, we still get some days of the week over 59 degrees, wich is unusual, as I've seen a major snowstorm happen on october 31st a dozen of years ago! I'm still hustlin' to get my winter wheels painted to mount my winter tires and fix the governor on my snowblower!!!! One thing I'm hugely jealous of Alaska is how dry the weather seems and everything just surface rusts! Living in the rust belt, it always amazes me to see such cool old trucks looking like they were frozen in time!!!
Nice one. I think YT served this up as I watched Diesel Creek's 'new' one of these. His has different transmission and is a hauler, but probably similar. Enjoyed the underneath shot. Thanks.
Stationed in Fairbanks at Ft. Wainwright from Sep. 79' to Feb. 82'. We would have to do the "heat the oil pan" on our POV 4x4's. The Company had a stairwell on the end of the barracks facing the parking lot. Under the stairwell was a galvanized garbage can lid and a couple of bags of charcoal brickettes and some lighter fluid. We would fill up the lid with charcoal, light it and let it get to glowing embers, pop the hood of the truck put a couple of old wool blankets from the supply room over the engine, close the hood and after a while the oil was good to go to start the truck. This made me smile from the memory. Thanks.
@@Vixtorz I don't understand your question. The engine compartment consists of the sides with the fenders, the top with the hood, the bottom portion is open.
It's amazing how better old machinery holds up against time and weather, a new piece of machinery is made to last probably 30 years at best? These trucks worked for years and years every day every night and still work, maybe not 100% functional but it's close to 70 years old i mean. amazing.
Beautiful sounds I own a yammar tractor and also a Perkins just about 50 plus years old each and they start on the spot all this old stuff are the best and reliable

that thing is not only one of the coolest old trucks ive ever seen but its also a pretty serious gin pole truck. like from back in the day when a guy had to actually drive the thing. not sit in the seat taking the power steering and heated interior for granted. LOL
Great video and I have a retired mechanic friend who at one point life working on a island off of Alaska keep their equipment going a huge mine and talked about the winters there .
The description of the truck hauling an 8-foot-high load of bricks and cinderblocks effortlessly speaks volumes about Oshkosh’s engineering. These trucks were built to handle extreme conditions and heavy loads with ease, making them iconic in construction and industrial circles.

Looks like a NHRS , an old 220 with a supercharger, used to give it about 1/2 hr with the old stove pipe and tiger torch, works like a charm. That engine sounds sweet, no surging, you can hear the compressor with the air cleaner on it. An old but a goody. Robinson transport used those on the old ice roads north of Yellowknife the did a fantastic job. Cheers.
Old, heavy trucks are wonderful and must be preserved.

Я думал,восстановление будут показывать! Но даже это видео про ток как он заводит этого старого монстра! Заслуживает лайка! И подписки на канал за то что у парня есть интерес к таким машинам! Удачи в задуманных делах! Машин много у тебя! Дел тоже много)))

Looks like a NHRS , an old 220 with a supercharger, used to give it about 1/2 hr with the old stove pipe and tiger torch, works like a charm. That engine sounds sweet, no surging, you can hear the compressor with the air cleaner on it. An old but a goody. Robinson transport used those on the old ice roads north of Yellowknife the did a fantastic job. Cheers.
