ok guys, I have created a new Bruce Wilson 2 account and I will be uploading old videos to that account along with new ones I have already filmed while being down!!!
new link to that channel is in the description. czcams.com/channels/9jcKlDPHzNedBrdFRrGEvQ.html?view_as=subscriber
Yes sir! First subscriber🤙🏻 keep up the awesome work!
Bruce Wilson can’t watch the mud truck tires one it was removed
Good as unsubbed from your other one as got spammed with useless videos today...like at least 20
They got your second channel too it seems. My feed for the original BW2 dumped dozens of Japanese videos on me tonight, under the name Fashionista Hairstyles.
I unsubscribed from old channel and sub this new one.
I am looking for a late 90's 9800 flat floor cabover 110 sleeper that is needing redone like this one was yet drivable like this one.
If you know let me know. Thanks
100,000 you got 347k now on your way to half a million, that's something to be so proud about. Congrats Bruce.
Need a second horn up top to make it look better....and symmetrical just adds more chrome lol
You might want to keep the block heater, never know where you'll travel to or when.
He's buying a new one; old one needs wiring redone, the mount is corroded and rusty. His goal is to make his semi functional, look clean, and good.
And i have seen freezing temps in West palm beach.
@@rcook7839 got ya, I must've not heard that part.
Here Hear!!!! I just commented to Bruce the same idea.
Joshua brown I second this motion
finally, someone who hasn't stretched teh frame enough to put a conventional body on. great looking rig. looks like the one i bought in 1983. takes me back, lol. if you are planning to sleep in the truck and use it for work you will be removing the flappers if you want to sleep. I took them off mine and put turnouts on it. slept like a baby. LOL, I'd go home after a month or more out and have to sleep in the truck. it was just way too quiet in the house without the engine running. haha. Great times. I was young and single and hauled cross country with it.
Done a few old LAND ROVER resto's myself and yes, nut and bolt rebuilds never end... Bruce you doin' well dude, keep goin'! Can't wait to see those flaps flapping with that SMOKEY diesel rollin' down the highway.
I absolutely love cab overs lol I was crazy about a tv series Bj and the bear in the early 80s. You've brought back that attraction that made modern day truckers fall in love with it all over again brother keep up the good work
I have only put fenders on air ride trucks, so I would dump the air and lay a 2X4 flat across the tires and use the boards as spacers. When you air up the suspension you will have good clearance. On a springer I suppose you would measure the distance from the suspension stop to the axle, add an inch or so, and space the fender accordingly. Since you want a new 5th wheel, get a riser spacer to go between the fame and the 5th wheel. Your new shiny fenders will thank you. On the bumper bolts I would polish the stainless steel bolts and never worry about them rusting. The bolt/nut covers are moisture catchers and rust generators. Best of luck to you on this build!
The space above the bumper is to allow the cab to clear when you lift the cab, it is really looking great.
It is good to see brothers working together on a creative project. Family is important.
I’m glad someone is restoring the older cabovers! After driving one for over 30 years it does my heart good to see that nice looking Transtar going back on the road ! I would think twice before putting super-singles on your steering axle , the cost really sucks and they don’t hold up over time ! If you want the tires out a bit use spacers ! You need another trumpet on the pass side ! Just cut the king pin latch rod shorter and use an old inner tube and make a gasket for behind that beautiful chrome bumper so it won’t rust ! These are things I’ve done to all the trucks I had ! The very first international I drove was a 1971 w/ a 36” bunk a 290 Cummins w/ 10 speed roadranger and 370 gears no air ride or power steering ! Lol. What ya hauling with the old girl ?
Very nice job you are doing! I´m watching it since you pick up the cabover from her graveyard and now she is rescued and bring back to life thanks to your great work! God Bless you man! I´m happy that you got your channel recovered and things are getting better. Greatings from Brazil.
I got hammered with videos from Bruce Wilson too. when i was checking youtube
For those stainless bolts, as an industrial plumber we always used tar on the threads to prevent the treads from being destroyed or jammed, and it makes it possible and easy to disassemble at a later point if needed 😉👍
bring the bumper bolts from the back side and install chrome acorn nuts on the front
This has been one of the greatest restoration series! The truck has made enormous progress since the first video. It looks great!
Congratulations on 100k button...next 1 million button 👍🏻
Hey I'm a Truck Driver in Germany myself. I follow your construction of the truck from the beginning and enthusiastically what you have already done with the truck. I'm really excited to see what Finnish will be like. I'm still looking forward to many great episodes.
Greetings Dirk from Germany
15:17 is my dude just chilling with a bottle of sweet baby rays on his desk?
Bruce.. the Cap Over is Bad Ass !!
I love it !!!
Seeing how that truck looked sat in that field for 20+ years in the 1st video to how it lookes now done a fantastic job nice to see an old school truck restored 👍
Ole truck is comin alive...keep up the good work Bruce
congratulations on the youtube award, go ahead and on behalf of all, thank you very much greetings
Heck yea... bumper and full fenders look radical 👍👍👍👍
Awesome Truck it is coming along nicely Looking Good
Truck is looking sick🔥🔥🔥
So Happy your back up and running man.
Bruce, congratulations! You did it!
Click on this button every time you finish a new project!
No one could have thought that this truck would be restored like this anyway its look like new.
You just need to paint that vent white dont get a chrome one I think just being white would be the best.
I'm glad u went with the drop dumper
Glad your back on line. Keep up the great work. BAZZER U.K.
From experience. You should put a good bead of silicone on the inside of the flaps and let it dry then install. It makes it quite and takes away the clanking sound
International cabover is really nice. Keep up the good work
Yes!!!!! Thank you for those chrome stack flaps!!! This truck is so fire!! Good job Bruce and I cant wait for you to finish the engine and start it up. Thank you again.
Good to see u back Bruce
I wouldn’t only add another horn up top but I would add 4 more marker lights on the roof also,to fill the space between the outside top marker lights and the center top marker lights...It would add a lot to it’s look..
add a second horn to make it look really good
Agreed!
Definitely look better with a 2nd horn
Make sure you use stainless bolts on your bumper or regular bolts will rust and leave rust streaks on that super sexy bumper👍
The cabover is looking sick!!🔥👍👍
You can glue a piece of rubber to the horn rest so the trumpet lays flat & has some cushion. You don't want it clanging & hitting over & over going down the road
That's gonna be a kick ass looking truck when your done
Back working on the semi fantastic fenders look SICK so much chrome SWEET
Really like eh truck, my 1983 9670 had the flappers, i ended up removing them and putting turn outs on it so i could sleep with the engine idling. But i loved that truck. I am envious of yours and i hope it gives you good service.
Now with the sun VISOR the truck is so good.
Cabover is really looking awesome! Congratulations on the play button award!
Little by Little it’s come along man and it’s looking great!
Hey man i am a fan from up in canada here is a tip for the rear fenders, put a 2 by 4 on tires and let air out of the air bags and then set the fenders on 2 by 4rs that way when air is all the way oit the tires won t ripe the fenders off. Awsome job on the IH cabovers are a rare site up here in canada so awsome to see, keep up the awsome job cheers. My name is phil from canada.
The cab over is looking better every episode. Getting pretty and shiny!
Good morning Bruce. First of all, I'd like to say. It's beautiful there in Florida. That new bumper and chrome over lapped finders got you looking like a show truck. Hats off to you sir. I have done an extraordinary job with her. She's beautiful man. Makes me happy to be a trucker and me hope.been watching you beautify her the whole time. Thanks for the upload. oh, yeah. Place a string of led lights under you're lapped over finders and under the cab over. Trust me. She will really look sick going down the road. Have a great day.
I cringed when he started rattle canning right after the grinder lol. Didn't even give it a hit with the air D:
He's the king of half-assing things.
@@Red_5_Standing_By that is a true statement
2 Fast throwing so much money at this project most folk would do things the right way, all he’s doing is throwing his cash in the fire imo.
its going to be behind the bumper but i would have blown it off with the air compressor
I’ve never seen someone buy chrome for a truck that won’t run. Rebuild the motor first Einstein.
Great job.👍 Bruce for your award from CZcams
LETS GO!!! GREAT PROGRESS!!!
Oh yeah!!! Love them rain cap!!!!
Bumper looks amazing
Oh yes had aircraft landing lights in my bumper on my 9670 Int. Really lit up the road . Ever hear of putting a piece of Black tape in the center of the head lights ? This helped in fog , bad weather . Yep ol 84 year retired trucker , before air , heaters , radios , no air ride seats , truck stops crazy places. Heart attack meals. MISS THE ROAD . OL BEAR. 🐻
Congrats on the silver play button👍
Looking really nice ..good job you got that polishing kit your going to need it ...UK England
If you put a slight bend on the rear horn bracket bend it from 90 degrees to about 100. it will sit tight on the front mount.
Love everything you've done aethsetically and mechanically with this Cabover. Flaps, headache rack, horns, polishing all the aluminum, rear fenders... did you finish the motor rebuild yet? Didn't catch that episode if you have yet. The truck is fantastic at any rate. Keep these episodes coming Bruce! Noice!
Congrats on getting the plaque. You are doing a great job on the big rig.
Nice truck 👍👍👍👍 ... 😀 You just need a bigger bumper Bigger than the one you put in.
That truck needs to be Black.. red stripes.. red interior! Looking good
There's a strap that goes over that horn to hold it to the bracket
Eric Ball most likely dry rotted and fell off 10 years ago
@@wadelevan1787 oh ya I know. It just looked like he didn't know there was supposed to be a rubber strap
You got that SOB looking good. Great content. I'm not a big fan of cabovers only because I'm too old and done climbing and that iron gets slick when it gets wet or snowy. Some sandpaper type material (paint on or stick on) applied to the step areas help.
Bruce Willson is the bad daddy Brad of the truck world, rough as guts but can’t stop watching 😂
ohhh boy!!! very nice !!! look well!!! congratulations!!
That bumper looks sick@ the Klanckers are pretty cool to!
Go retro on the interior and find a big, white, 3-spoke IH steering wheel from the 70's COE's. But good luck, I've been trying to find one for years..... Nice ol' truck, can't wait to see it complete and jamming down the road.
I love can overs and especially the freightshaker you are doing but...that international is beautiful! Great job saving a proud hard working truck!
CONGRATULATIONS!
Did I miss something? I thought the bottom end of the motor was torn apart. I hope it is sealed well otherwise that rust dust is going to screw it up.
Shes looking better all the time starting to remind me of the old HH Hudson trucks we ran Eagle Big cam 4 13 speeds 3 digit midget everyone and the fastest was the gray ghost . I used to run down Bull whacks easily .
Hey Bruce! There should be a black rubber strap that holds the front of the air horn down!
the truck coming along nicely.. keep the good content flowing.. so sorry about the issues.. hope they get sorted out..
Bruce the truck is friggiing awesome
Congratulation on the CZcams 100k Plaque
Bad ass bumper! Comedian Kevin Nicks
Comedian Kevin Nicks still here Loving your cabover
Really good that you have your brother on the channel too now. I think he makes a fantastic difference to the content. Great to see close brothers. Wassup Aaron!
He said "they gona stick up n the wind too" lmao. Duuuuhhhh
Put a piece of rubber between the horn and front bracket then use rubber band / o ring to hold it down. It should hook on the bracket.
Stack Flaps for the win
Bruce your cabover is starting to look real sexy can't wait to see it running awesome
The two hoses going to the trailer are call glad hands
Allen Gero glad hands are only the coupler ends not the whole thing.
Looking great Bruce!
Great job Bruce looks really great
Truck is looking good.
Great looking truck,God Bless
Big love from Iraq 🇮🇶 🇺🇸
Look what they posted on your other channel I'm getting notifications for it
I have nothing to do with trucks but this was a very cool story. Nice work. Watching in Australia.
Suggest a 5th wheel with either the air release for the catch or one with the removable handle to protect your fenders.
I’m so glad you went with the full fenders
the cab paintjob is a desaster
Hey!! Nice project!!! Greetings from San Jose Costa Rica, love your channel and I can’t wait to see the beauty done!! The space between the cabin and the bumper use a rubber thing, my dad just to own one like yours and I remember the haves that rubber thing to keep out the dust. Cheers from Costa Rica!!!!
My man! Awesome, git ur done Young Buck!
Make sure you get your new fifth wheel height right if you plan on hooking that up to a van trailer.
If the fenders are too high or fifth wheel is too low with a trailer on, you’ll crush them with the trailer whenever you pull onto uneven surface.
Congratulations on that CZcams plaque. Pretty cool.
