Beauty of an old grain truck. I learned to drive at the age of 9 in one of those. Standing behind the wheel and shuttling corn from my grandpa's field as he cut back to the grainbins where my uncle was waiting to start the auger. Lol. Great find there.
I worked for a guy one time that his dad had a 66 Chevy truck like that same engine and transmission. He kept it in the barned all the time. He hauled grain and hay with it. It was about 10 years old at that time and looked like a new truck the last time I saw it. Great old truck. You done good, and that will make someone a great truck. Stay safe, and God bless you.

@@donaldsink8115 These 2 speed rear axles really were a lifesaver for a medium duty truck with a gas engine and only a 4 or 5 speed transmission, especially since the 1st gear was a granny gear.
@@charleshubert6751The only problem is half those 2 speeds don't work anymore. The electric ones are better than the vaccuum powered ones though. The vacuum ones barely worked when new.
@@HockeyGoon939 Agreed there, when I've had a problem with the electric ones out was usually nothing more than terminal corrosion or a broken wire. Vacuum systems 'work' when everything is perfect; no moisture in the lines, no leaks, good accumulator and so on. I've got a1970 Corvette and the headlight doors and wiper door work but even the slightest leak anywhere including check valves, filter, lines, diaphragms and switches under the steering column are a pain. Right now everything works but the headlights are starting to rise more slowly so I'm going to have to start playing again soon!
I worked with a guy for years and our every day dump truck was a 67 chevy with a 327 and 4 speed. It was a great truck. I think he sold it and now has a 77 chevy dump. I also have a 77 GMC Jimmy that I'm in the process of working on and rebuilding. Can't go wrong with a truck that you can fix pretty much anything with just a few wrenches.
@@gotetnies Probably not on an old 66' carbureted Chevy One Ton. Fuel pump's ran off a cam lobe and were mounted on the front-right section of the "Small Block."
63 GMC B4000, 351, they swapped the 4 for a 5 speed, 2 speed rear. Knew zero about it but the tires looked good and held air. Wanted those for a different truck. Had 30k on it with an hour meter in the tach, all mechanical gauges. $200. Used it for 4 years then sold it for $600. Fair enough.
Drove one as a kid (14) on the wheat harvest back in 1978. Yes kids were allowed to drive. We got issued a farmer's license. Only could be used to do farming.
👍👌👏 Hooray 🙌, what a purchase! Congrats, congrats, congrats! Of course I'm eagerly looking forward to see this great truck in the next long video. Best regards, luck and especially health to all of you.
You found the diamond. Someone who valued their piece. This os not a truck but, a contributing member of the family. Ready to live a life of working well beyond its time.
I LOVE TO HAVE A TRUCK AS SWEET AS THAT.. IM OLD NOW BUT THAT IS A GREAT TRUCK..GOD SHINES ON YOU FOR GETTING A GEM LIKE THAT..THEY R SOME OF THE KOOLIST N BEST TRUCKS ON EARTH
I have a 65 with a 292 and 4 speed. It's a 12 foot dump bed. It has made me hundreds of thousands of dollars, when scrap steel was so high. It's hauled off boilers that were huge. The people who loaded them said it would never pull them with the inline 6. They were amazed when it hauled several of them. One time I was hauling an air handler from a factory. It clipped a power line and dumped off in the city street. That was a fiasco. That thing barley sipped any gas , for it's size. We had to trucks with v8s , and the 292 would get double the fuel mileage, plus haul twice the load.
Buddy that motor is priceless, do not let people fuck with that motor. Keep good oil in it and good air filters, good gas etc. 9.5 to 1 compression needs Premium Gas NO ETHANOL.
Drove one just like it, hauling watermelons and hay.. Packed with melons in the field and hauled straight to buyers... towards the end of the season pulled it by the road and sold melons out of the back to tourist passing through.
327 is one of the best engines out there.... Loved ours we were blessed my Husbands Uncle Had worked for Chevy for many years and every year he got a brand new car. He would always gift his cars to family... We married in 76 and the baby floated and beautiful shape.... It was an Impala....
I’m very happy that you got that truck. I love your videos and what you do and I’m glad that you got a good deal on that truck it really is amazing. God bless happy Sunday! Blaine Halley, loves cars and trucks and Santa Cruz California!
Congrats!! 🎉 That would be a toy to build for cruising…create a old school badass car hauler…such a beautiful classic, and it would be the only one at any classic car meet. Just drop it to the ground on low profile tires…since it’s going to ride like it anyways…or bag it and make it ride like a Cadillac.😳🤔🥰👍
Nice truck! I hauled lots of hay on one like this. Henry pop up bail loader. Dad paid $1100 for truck and loader. '73 to '78. My cut was $.03 per bale!
Looks it's in great condition for the age. Old farmer bought a dump truck and used it for 30 years and took it to trade in in and the trade in was more than he paid for it originally

Awesome old truck, please dont cut that up, i know ya cant save em all, if that has a title and no brakes, it needs a good home!
actually looked clean
he will crush it, thats what he loves to do.
@@matzrat5006 wth? Thats horrible 😢
@@privateprivate1865 it is. im sure he will sell this one. too cherry to crush. be usable again with a cummins swap.
@@matzrat5006 no way.. 327 is my favorite classic small block. Keep it all original.. This truck is way too nice to be anything but stock.
Dude. The truck is totally worth the video you made. My heart's breaking but I'm glad it happened well for you.
You hit the jackpot with this. That’s a nice looking old truck it looks like it’s been well maintained.👍👍
And it looks like its got a Mid-West grain box on it too! Great buy.
U got lucky. The seller was honest.
My dad had one of these on his farm. We worked the shit out it. Loved that truck
That’s the day you’re the windshield & not the bug. Happy trails to ya! 👍
Nice.... hadn't heard that one.😂

Nice piece of history. I wish I could afford to buy it. I'd come straight to Kansas and get it. Really nice truck

Good for you man! That's a cool truck, I see the two speed rear axle, big plus. Plus she's good looking too.
One of the first things I noticed. He didn't mention it. Most people wouldn't have any idea what it was.

Absolutely gorgeous. Take good care of the old lady.
Sweet truck! Great candidate for a vintage ramp truck. Hope someone steps up to buy it before the ol’ torch gets fired up.
Based on the video he just bought it not selling it
Man you got the deal of the year. Congratulate.
Hope someone buys the whole truck. That's a beautiful truck. Would make a great roll back or farm truck.

Yeah, that's a gem. It paid off didn't it? Bravo broskie!
Beautiful!!!!! You must be happy as heck! 😊
There are many Farms that need this style of truck . every thing mentioned about it makes it a Keeper !
I would love to see this as a "vintage" delivery truck staged at a winery.
What a beauty! Please take care of that old girl.
Wow, that's a good find. I think you seriously lucked out, sight unseen.
It's a nice truck. But it depends on what he paid and he decided to leave that detail out.
@@justlucky8254 he said it's a steal for what he paid for it. My guess is 1500 or under
I Love ALL those Classic Trucks whether they're GM..FORD Or DODGE they are All Great
At first I thought it didn't start. I had to turn up the audio to hear how smooth and quiet it was running. Congratulations! Great find .
Think he waited for the fuel pump to prime. But I could be wrong.

The motor in that truck sounds great you got a good deal bro.
That would be fun for just about anything. Love the old survivor's. Good job Silas.
It's a beauty. I'd drain the behind the seat tank and hang tanks on the frame rails. Safety issues. Thanks for sharing.
We have some of the best looking clean old grain trucks hidden in barns and sheds and a lot still on the road in Kansas.
Nice
yes sir. So many trucks just like this that come out for a month a year then get stored inside for 11 months. This is a good example.
You got to get that factory tack working. That's in good shape.
👍👌👏 Hooray 🙌, what a purchase! Congrats, congrats, congrats! Of course I'm eagerly looking forward to see this great truck in the next long video.
Best regards, luck and especially health to all of you.
Ohh damm you got burned bad!!! The taco meter not working!!!😂😂😂 you got a kick ass deal nice find.
Awesome find
Good for you my friend.! You must be living right, and now God has blessed you. Enjoy
Well done my friend!!! Youre doing the world a huge favore
You found the diamond. Someone who valued their piece. This os not a truck but, a contributing member of the family. Ready to live a life of working well beyond its time.
That is one awesome buy👍👍👍👍
What a thrill. It takes me back to the 70s driving this same model truck as a teen digging ditches for my dad's company.
This would make someone an awesome build
I just bought an 87 gmc 7000 and whoever had it when it was new took just as good of care of it. Great truck!
angels were all around this dude😇👍

He forgot "gets 1 mile a gallon" 😅
Nobody cares.
Probably 8-11mpg
Great find! Give her a good home.
One of those times it just all worked out. Very cool truck. Congrats!!
WOW! All I could do was keep saying, "WOW!" every time you pointed something new out. WOW! What a rig. Amazing find.
You be driving when solar flare hits. Nice classic drive.
Killer truck..327..two spd rearend🥃😎👌
I love it when a plan comes together and you just get lucky. Congratulations brother.
You took a big chance buying it site unseen. I am glad it worked out well for you.
Will you look at that? I am so happy for you, brothaman. You scored a hole in one!
Sounds terrific! Being in that rig it probably has an RV cam for torque. Sweet truck!
You got Lucky! That could have turned out so much worse.
every step of the way I was like okay that's beautiful that's beautiful that's beautiful So... And then you started it! 👍👍👍👍👍👍
The ignition was as smooth as butter. Awesome truck!

I thought you were gonna tell us a horror story. Amazing, that's in great shape!! I'm glad it worked out for ya!!
Nothing like being able to actually work on it yourself! That’s a beauty! Very nice interior.
What a great find! Beautiful old truck!
Jaw dropped when i saw the inside, beautiful truck
Wow beautiful truck. I grew up on an old ford 650 really loved that one
That is a Very SWEET TRUCK SILAS!!
Score of a lifetime! Love it, what a gem
Good oil pressure too! You got a keeper!
Buddy that motor is priceless, do not let people fuck with that motor. Keep good oil in it and good air filters, good gas etc. 9.5 to 1 compression needs Premium Gas NO ETHANOL.
Couldn't help but notice that factory tach isn't working!!😂
About 35 years ago, I had to drive something like that, the gas tank was behind the seat, and we had to check the fuel level with a dowel rod
Winner Winner Chicken Dinner! Congratulations
2 speed rear ..... That's a good ole truck...... Probably a 427 truck motor too!
You scored! As soon as you opened the door, I knew it was a score.
You Sir, are EXTREMELY lucky.
Been sitting in an old farm shed for years. Grandpa passed and it wasn't pretty enough for the digital farming today.
You stole that. Congrats. Nice truck. Jelly AF.
Love that sound, You did really good with this one. ☝🏻 😅😅😅
Had one, they are built like a tank. Good find.
Drove one just like it, hauling watermelons and hay.. Packed with melons in the field and hauled straight to buyers... towards the end of the season pulled it by the road and sold melons out of the back to tourist passing through.
You sure got lucky on that one as soon as you showed the truck I loved it make a part 2 while you are driving it

😂 Fellow Should Have Bought A Lottery Ticket That Day As Well😊👍🏼🍒
Add Satellite Radio ya really got something! Great truck! Put it to work.
I didn't expect it to be so quiet and smooth. I would have to guess it was a farm truck that never left the property
that was soo lucky!! I was expecting the worst, I'm sure you did as well! slick ole grain hauler
You definitely won the bid man! A+
Beautiful truck inside and out. When you cranked it over, i was expecting the sound of a diesel or 454 BB. Nice find though!!
Great buy.
Sometimes the Auto gods shine their light in the right place at the right time.
That truck looks good interior looks really good an engine sounds good you found a golden goose egg if I ever seen one
Did Great! Congratulations.
Nice. Split axel too😊
I’m very happy that you got that truck. I love your videos and what you do and I’m glad that you got a good deal on that truck it really is amazing.
God bless happy Sunday!
Blaine Halley, loves cars and trucks and Santa Cruz California!
I absolutely love the sound of a 327 sbc with rusted out exhaust

Cool truck and the old school license plate is a nice touch.
Lucky and Gorgeous. I walk everywhere.. just bought a Bicycle
Congratulations. 👏 JACKPOT!

High Torque 327! Great find👍👍👍
You lucked out there for sure that interior is crazy very cool 👍👍
That thing is in Great shape! Especially for a work truck because most work trucks have been beat on.
