Thanks Brent and Pablo. Really appreciate your content. More memory jogs for this old man. My first car was a 1956 Plymouth with a flat head 6 pulled from a barnyard, brought home and got running/driving. That was almost 60 years ago.
Man, that's such an awesome story of your first ride. My first car was a 1990 Ford Festiva L with ice cold AC and that's it. I was 16, in 1999. I am 39 now and I am on my 69th vehicle since then. I've never owned anything cool that was domestic, almost all of my cars have been imports, but I grew up in that age. My first car would've been a 1960s Ford Galaxie 500 with a 352 FE and an auto that was garage kept its entire life, but the guy's widow got cold feet, and I didn't blame her because that was her husband's pride and joy. She didn't last much longer, but I sincerely hope that their kids got that car. She was going to sell it to me for $500 and my uncle had helped them throughout the years, and that's why she was willing to facilitate the offer, but I didn't deserve that beautiful car at that age, so it's just as well. Knowing me I would've done something stupid with it and ragged it out, so she was right for not wanting to sell it.
Pablo feels the same way I do about that beauty Dodge - keep her stock in ALL her sameness. She looks just awesome! One of the best examples of 50's Dodge truck coolness. Fresh PTO, fresh brakes, accel pump, couple of patches, repurposed wood bed and you got yourself a heckuva useful town runner for errands and such. I give that cab a thumbs-up, for what its worth. Just another amazing grab that was unusually spared the typical northern rust attack. That flatty six purrs like a grateful kitten and she looks eager for a second chance at road life. Wins all over the place ! Cheers!!!
Hi Brent and Pablo, nice ride, Pablo wants more rides,My dream car before I pass on is 1957 chevy sdn I like to take a ride in one, at 64 years old . My roller pigeons is all I have now
Not a successful will-it-run until Pablo gets to go for a cruise!! Great video. Truck is in amazing shape given it's spent most of it's life on Ontario and Manitoba roads. Look forward to seeing what's next on this one. Gotta be worth doing something with such a cherry old truck like this. Be safe and stay well.
That's a nice truck. You are so lucky to be able to find these. Not much left around my area. I keep looking. It seems really easy for you to get it running and driving. Always a pleasure watching. Thanks 👍
You were the happiest guy ever what keeps you going and motivated you never seem tired and this is not even your normal job You’ve inspired me to keep moving many times
As a musician and a junk car guy, Iv'e got to compliment you on the choice of music you use. I like watching someone who is good at what they do while listening to some cool music.👍
Your like a mad professor bringing life back to these old trucks must of been the dashing start yet awsome content fantastic footage thank you for sharing
Don't forget Pablo's Asprin a couple of times a day just to keep his joints from creaking too much. Not a handsome truck but in good shape for its age. Thanks for the video. Always appreciated.
Those old Dodge trucks ran well and did a lot of farm work. My friend had one, don’t remember year, but it was a steak bed. Just a fine truck for many years. Would be a great flip. Thanks and best of luck.
My Dad got me a 1950 Dodge pickup for my 14th birthday , ran and drove , I'd drive it around in my neighborhood, put it in 3rd gear and at idle u could hear everyone of the cylinders hit at w whopping 7 mph lol it was a fun truck , bought it of a farm guy in Texas, wish I'd kept it and modified it out with up graded drive trane from front to back ...... like that 56 dodge not many of them around anymore.
so Pablo wants to keep running the drone haha. what a cool dog. i was thinking of your other Dodge with the bad motor stuffing it on a Dakota Chassis . nice truck
Had to chuckle watching you tap on the valves with a hammer while remembering Mortske doing the same thing and a valve broke. Was waiting for one to snap off on you. Lol All in all, this seems like a pretty solid unit.
Brent. Fun video. Thanks for sharing it. You have lots of skill to get these things running and make it look easy. Like you said..."the truck is too good to just scrap or part out for the grille" but I think using the dump truck cylinder in the NAPCO is a good plan. I'm surprised you never throw a fire extinguisher in when you take your first drives in your projects. I always have one on hand for a "first start" and first drive just for insurance. Enjoy seeing Pablo along on your rides. He's a big guy and maybe having some hip or back problems getting in and out of those tall trucks. We had a big Lab with hip problems and a kennel owner told us about Glucosamine Chondroitin. We picked up some tablets at the pet store and just threw 2-3 in his dog dish with his food every day. Seemed to help him a lot. Keep up the fun projects. Looking forward to seeing the NAPCO truck moved along.
I agree about Pablo.The bench seat was too high to get on, considering his size. It would have been easier on the passenger side,where he could get on the floor board, then get up on the seat. Same with getting down, just move the gas can out of the way.
Great to see this old truck decide to live once more. I would have thrown in the towel when I had to take the head off. You made the right move in finishing the truck to take that ride, Like you said Pablos face says it all THIS IS MY TRUCK
Brent, you amaze me every time, you are a true talented halfass car / truck guy , and love when you show your random specialty tools, like this pipe bender from time to time that you hide in your hoard cave 😁👍
I just keep learning stuff from you on these type videos, which I really like very much. These tutorial videos are so educational where you show all the various ways things to check on these old motors and each video I learn something new. Great job and I would love to see another four door truck build for sure, you have the General now you would have the Sergeant. Pablo loves his rides and knows when its time to go, he getting keyed in on every project now and just waiting his turn to ride. Another great video my friend, take care.
As a new subscriber, I was saddened by the disaster that happened within your shop. I have been an avid watcher since I discovered your channel. I will have to say I watch your videos about 50% of the time. the only TV competition you have in this house is Gold Rush. So Kudos to you and your presentation.
One of the hardest things to find, a commercial Vehicle or work truck that is still in decent condition. My dad owned a couple of Sedan Delivery 50s vintage Chev's that were worked to pieces when he was a contractor. I'm sure that's why you don't see them often today. Good on you for saving them.
A made in Ontario truck that had to move to another province to last long enough to come back to life, Thing is it is good hands with you. I'm sure that no matter what it turns into it will be a masterpiece . Cant wait for your next project, I'm a real fan , love your work...Stu from Ontario.............
The trucks and other projects are awesome but Man you are Blessed with your sidekicks! That super cute and funny Wife and them Sweet big old Doggos! My Wife and I were just commenting how much that Dog loves ya when he got in that cab with you. Such good times! Please give the Doggies some good scritches for us all!
In 1993 bought me 1951 Dodge truck had a camper on it its hole life 72000 original miles had new 1963 year tires still had the paper tag on the tires it was parked because the exhaust manifold was broke and burnt a few valves easy fix. Good luck find brake parts they were unattainable in 1993 had to have the shoes relined and after 6 months search found some old stock wheel cylinders.
This is a awesome moment brother great video getting this old girl back from the dead. I truly appreciate your channel and all the Classics you bring back to life. I believe you are doing awesome things with your skills and talents. Ty for bringing us all along for the adventures.
You know dude, premium starting fluid has cylinder lubricant in it and carburator cleaner and brake cleaner do not. Use premium starting fluid. Great work man. Your a genius ❤
that was awesome i finaly got to show littleone what they always taking about stuck valves or stuck pistons when i wach these videos. so now she seen the basics of how a motor works.
Man I sure do love Pablo. What a character he is lol. Great running truck. She will make a good project down the line when you’re ready. Not a whole lot of rust repair which is a win. Great video. Thanks for sharing.
PABLO sad when you first rolled in i though to myself looks like no ride for a while but you surprised me again what a boss and mechanic / oh now they call them technicians not to me your the best boss lets ride YIPPEE
Love Pablo, reminds me of my big old ridgeback, very calm, sits hard up against you when you go for a drive and sometimes just doesnt want to accept the ride is over.
I didn't watch the video. I wouldn't believe it. I said it before you got horseshoes man. That is a sharp looking truck. Didn't take much to get it going. Runs all right. Same age as me. 56 Dodge moves around better than I do some days. And of course you're fearless. Companion doesn't want to leave your side. Take me for a ride he says. 👍👍🙂🇨🇦🐕
When ever I see the “ General “ it’s a good day .Love seeing the work on the old engines .More please .!
Excellent use of the claw hammer!
Brett your parts inventory amazes me no matter how old or how odd you have one laying somewhere! Love it.
I don’t know who has a bigger hoard - Brett or mustie1 😂

I know, I'm a young buck. My two other "first cars" was a 1979 Honda Civic 1200 with a 4 speed manual and a 1990 Chevrolet Beretta GT 2.8 auto.
One man and his trusty dog, Pablo!
You have so much good junk Brent. Love ya work Mate. Billy J..... Queensland, Australia.

Being a truck guy all my life (long time) I'm glad to see you doing a lot of trucks. Very cool Dodge. Right on Brent.

Good stuff thanks for video. I like the way Pablo leans on you !
Pablo is such a riding character saying "No, I wanna another ride, Please". Love your show as always HK.
I love how you're able to laugh when things aren't going perfectly. Always enjoy seeing your vids.
As a musician and a junk car guy, Iv'e got to compliment you on the choice of music you use. I like watching someone who is good at what they do while listening to some cool music.👍
Another brilliant episode Brent. Pablo digs the truck in a big way.
Great seeing the 56 Dodge rolling under it's own power!! Pablo is so cool! Love that dog.
This channel never gets old or boring. There is always something new on the horizon. Keep up the great content Brent!!!

The old Dodge lives to run again. Great work. Thanks for sharing.
Ole Pablo wants to ride, thankyou for another great video, you are very good at the mechanical stuff and it's a pleasure to watch you work.

Awesome. Pablo is like my dog, a stubborn kisser. 🤣

:-) Always good when one of your videos appears in my feed. Stay safe out there.
Absolutely amazing Brent! I really enjoy watching how you bring life back into these great old vehicles that had been forgotten.
Neat old truck and a donor for the lift mechanism.
Pablo approved it is.
Always a Great Watch Brent Thanks for Sharing.
Made my Day . Take care.
so Pablo wants to keep running the drone haha. what a cool dog. i was thinking of your other Dodge with the bad motor stuffing it on a Dakota Chassis . nice truck
Brent another great. Video l like those old trucks to looks like Pablo does still jamming on the music later
Had to chuckle watching you tap on the valves with a hammer while remembering Mortske doing the same thing and a valve broke. Was waiting for one to snap off on you. Lol
All in all, this seems like a pretty solid unit.
I think I laughed so hard at the look on Mortske's face. It was priceless.
@@waynedavis7245 oh, I did too. 😁🤣
These truck videos are very addictive! Lol. Wish they were available at a reasonable cost over here in the UK 🇬🇧
Brent. Fun video. Thanks for sharing it. You have lots of skill to get these things running and make it look easy.

That is a great dog you have I just lost mine after 17 years watching you and yours remind me how great they are Ang you have a good one take care.
Pretty cool you got that old trucks story going again!!

Brent, Pablo is thinking, " I LIKE IT!!!"...
Really enjoyed this brilliant revival and your choice of background music is spot on and pablo is the real mvp
I love the laugh everytime one if these come to life.

Old Pablo is a big boy!! 👌
You find some of the coolest vehicles. That truck is no exception👍
Great find. Thanks again for sharing your video Brent and that is a big fur baby or bark manager taking over your truck.
Your are the master of auto revival!!
A made in Ontario truck that had to move to another province to last long enough to come back to life, Thing is it is good hands with you. I'm sure that no matter what it turns into it will be a masterpiece . Cant wait for your next project, I'm a real fan , love your work...Stu from Ontario.............
The trucks and other projects are awesome but Man you are Blessed with your sidekicks! That super cute and funny Wife and them Sweet big old Doggos! My Wife and I were just commenting how much that Dog loves ya when he got in that cab with you. Such good times! Please give the Doggies some good scritches for us all!

Pablo is relaxing silent type 😁
Great video Brent.Really like the revival work.Again,the truck was someone's pride and joy off the lot.
I love your expressions when things go "RIGHT."
That old hound looks like he has seen a lot of winters,,, hard to find a good friend like him,, Hope this one s restored maybe
Your choice of music is always excellent ! Good luck with this one.
Great truck, I had a 52 1/2T that I put a 56 Desoto 330 Hemi into... loved it.
Give Pablo an extra treat tonite, he seems like a real Mopar guy!
Loved seeing you bring her back to life. It was "Some kind of magic" my favorite Queen song. Poblo is in his happy place.
Nice to see the old truck running again!
It was great to see the general back doing what she was designed to do great station
Spartan !
Thank You for sharing your video, and letting us hang out .

This is a awesome moment brother great video getting this old girl back from the dead. I truly appreciate your channel and all the Classics you bring back to life. I believe you are doing awesome things with your skills and talents. Ty for bringing us all along for the adventures.
Another great save!!! Pablo looks like he might need to cut back on the ice cream! Haha
You know dude, premium starting fluid has cylinder lubricant in it and carburator cleaner and brake cleaner do not. Use premium starting fluid. Great work man. Your a genius
❤
that was awesome i finaly got to show littleone what they always taking about stuck valves or stuck pistons when i wach these videos. so now she seen the basics of how a motor works.
About the only channel that's worth a smile!
Man Brent I love to watch you revive these old trucks that I grew up with😁👍👍
Keep the great work hope you have a great day
Pablo does such a good job running the drone!
Brent very Kool Truck Pablo is a great Dog
Thankfully that PTO you found was a perfect match! Just the right amount of grime to blend right in...
Brent the 4door idea sounds great. Make sure you get the water out before winter gets bad 👍🏻🇬🇧
Another great project truck. You´re a lucky fella.
Love how you find these old buggies and haul them home!!! Yup, you haul em home and drive em away!!!
Beautiful save, she is in really great shape, amazing ability to bring her back! Love it!
Man I sure do love Pablo. What a character he is lol. Great running truck. She will make a good project down the line when you’re ready. Not a whole lot of rust repair which is a win. Great video. Thanks for sharing.
Great job Brent, Kool old truck. 👍
Pablo's favorite ride is whatever ride dad breathed life back into at the moment ... We humans should be so easy to please.
Only the General can make a 1-ton flatbed truck look small. Love the channel, keep up the great work.
Great job getting it running after so long .
Pavlo knows that if he waits all good stuff will come his way!
PABLO sad when you first rolled in i though to myself looks like no ride for a while but you surprised me again what a boss and mechanic / oh now they call them technicians not to me your the best boss lets ride YIPPEE
Pablo is smart 'cuz he loves Mopar's. Truck is as old as I am but it runs far better than I do. Glad to see her moving again.
wow a remote trigger..... miracles do happen 😅
Brent, you are awesome!!
great find Brent , and another beauty that will be saved to enjoy many more....👀👍✔
You are amazing my friend and thank you for all you do seriously you rock.
Love Pablo, reminds me of my big old ridgeback, very calm, sits hard up against you when you go for a drive and sometimes just doesnt want to accept the ride is over.
Love the slow Blues background music as much as the video!!!
Man,never boring watching your activity.gbu Man and keep
Nice job, I knew you were going to get it going.
Way cool. I like how we both start laughing at the same time when those batteries start dying. :)
Glad Pablo made the effort for that ride 👍
Another great truck chief! Love the cars in the yard as well! Very jealous!
