  • This 1965 Chevrolet C10 has been off the road since 1989, and been stripped down quite a bit. And of course, I bought it without seeing it. Let's see if I can get it running in one night and do something with it. Oh, and skeeters.

This video is one of my favorites because I’m a big fan of the old farm trucks being brought back to life. I’ve saved a few myself through the years. It’s rewarding to put them back in service. I’m a Jeep nut so when I saw that old Gladiator in the background, I was hoping you could do a future video of going back and saving that one too. I’d love to come up and drag her back home.

    I find these videos of you bringing these Gems back from the dead far more entertaining than anything Hollywood has put out in the last 10 years. And, when one fires up and runs again - I feel the excitement you must be feeling. I truly love what your doing and I love the way your doing it. Thank you!

    Fantastic video! You never cease to amaze me in your funny, resilient and very informative way of getting these old beasts to run. I'm sure you've been told this millions of times, but you are an inspiring and great teacher. I had a 62 C10 in about the same shape and changed its starter in the parking lot of a gas station in the pouring rain laying in a puddle. Looking forward to getting my 86 Bronco dialed in with your helpful hints.

      my neighbor had one that burnt a valve. He took the head off to take the valve out and slapped it back together missing one entirely. ... ironically, that was 1989. Things changed so fast. I remember the generation that taught me.. bitching about the brand new electronic TBI in the trucks. If some of them could see them still running 30 years later.. I wonder what they'd say.
