First reply and when’s the next grand national vid because I have a 1987 grand national and I want to learn more about grand nationals
@@MasterCorporalK.Storch hopefully next week!
2nd reply I feel like a Ford Mustang revival would be great haven’t seen one of those in a while on CZcams
They don’t deliver to Australia
Had a 7o w/390 spicer3 sp w 4:10 no rust ,brakes were shot tire rod came off steeringshaft donut fell apart pick up tube in tank had some pebbles in it shot them out with pressure washer most things didn’t cost much spare parts were easy to find , easy to work on
Kevin: "Bought this truck for $500."
Trucks in my area: "For sale, no bed no doors no motor, 5.5k best offer in town
True 😂
Trucks are outrageous in my area as well. Though I did pick up a 59 Edsel for $500
Move to the mid west, rust belt.
Exactly
I sold a very decent '69 F100 a few years back for $1700. Ran and drove and wasn't rusted out. They are out there.
Dude, quit being so hard on yourself. We don’t watch your channel for hassle free revivals, we watch because you and mook because you manage to relate to all of us. You should be proud for all of your accomplishments. Debt free out of college, successful business, friends who seem to like you. This is probably my favorite channel. Nothing against the others, you just strike the balance of not taking yourself too seriously, and showing that everything goes to plan. It makes my day when I see that new content has dropped. Thanks for your service, thanks for being real. And thanks for not forgetting how to laugh.
I second this.
Agreed
I second this motion!
The JYD garage has found its 2nd permanent member. It complements the Pontiac perfectly. Whatever you do... keep that Eagle, Kevin.
More like 23rd😂
Yeah he sold it lol
Words can't explain how important your getting involved in the military is. It's so true and we need new warriors. To fix stuff! Respect.
"you will feel the math coursing through your body" -Kevin JYD, 2021
I am totally stealing this one! LOL
Fucking love math jokes
I misread that as "You will feel the METH coursing through your body." lol
I lost my shituff laughing at that
As I was reading this, he said it, what odd timing.
I actually liked life advice with Kevin.
Wouldn't mind hearing more about some of the stuff you've done.
Awesome plug for the military! I was in the Air Force for a little over 2 years (until I developed a heart murmur) But it was the best decision ever. I had no direction coming out of high school. The service not only gave me valuable electronics training, but also taught me self discipline, a fantastic work ethic and so much more.
Now I’m convinced Kevin will be able to get old helicopter of some kind air worthy. That’d be a cool project on the channel
That "Queen Filter" is a filter for a "Filter Queen" vacuum cleaner. They probably still make that exact model, as they are tanks as far as vacuum cleaners go.
Yeah, they're sorta like a fancy shop vac sorta configuration. Little felt thing was designed to muffle the exhaust and also to be sprayed w fragrances so the exhaust smells nice.
*Oh that ain't rusty on these. Rusty is when it looks like someone tried to can opener the roof on all four sides and the bed's style line has a quarter inch gap corroded through the steel.*
My parents bought a Filter Queen over 30 years ago and they still use it to this day. Thankfully that horrid smelling perfume crap that came with it has long since been used up lol.
my parents bought a filter Queen vacuum over 50 years ago. Good machines!
I love how American products are named. Such and such King and This that Queen.
Great life advice! To graduate college and begin life with no debt is a goal with striving for. Congratulations!
First of all. Thank You for your service. I pretty much followed the same path you took, as far as Military service and college degree from an accredited School. My MOS was 63B/52D Light Wheeled Vehicle Mechanic/ Power Gen Equipment repair. You were probably still in grade school when I went through it, and I doubt It's changed much since then. My education was completely paid for from the Army, and it makes a huge difference when starting out. Our Veteran status certainly opens a lot of doors!
I went into the Coast Guard went to Kodiak had a blast learned to be a heavy equipment operator and spent 20 years as a civilian doing my trade. Thank You for Your Service. I was a Peace Time Vet after Vietnam and before Granada. Some really fun times in the Motor Pool!!!!
I'm going through automotive electrical ATM in school, and Kevin actually explained the random clunk problem accurately and easily.
Good job Kevin!
2:57 the reason is it's the most aggressive/coolest looking station wagon ever made.
EAGLES FLY!! CAW-CAW!
In about 3 weeks, you'll start seeing'em appear at the gas stations all over N.E. Pennsylvania. The cold weather hits and the Eagles start flyin' :)
I really appreciate your comments about serving in the military....I did 28 years guard and AGR chinook pilot and other stuff...OEF and OIF...thanks for your service.....love your channel
Cheers to being a mechanic! Currently an aircraft mechanic in the USAF. Loving it so far and looking to start school soon to get my A&P license. Going to school didnt even cross my mind until I joined the military.
Honestly the life advice and talk is awesome to hear. Keep up the awesome content 🤘
That's cool that you're rocking the Eagle!! Really nice car and an important piece of history
Much respect for you. Thank you for your service. I was dual MOS. 42B and 63B (that greasy job 😂). I joined for college money but walked into my career after my first deployment. You are 100% right. I owe everything to my 9 years in the reserves. That’s why I love your channel. You are a down to earth humble dude who gets to do what he loves everyday. Keep doing what you do brother.
Great life advice about the military. Air Force vet here. I was never interested in playing soldier, but military service allowed me to learn a valuable skill, live in Europe as a young man, gave me focus, helped me grow up, learn discipline and other life skills, and also paid for college. Kevin I laughed when you looked to the sky and identified the noise. As a former air traffic controller I do the same when I hear military aircraft go over. You never forget that "sound of freedom"...
Tanks for the talk about the National Guard. I did 3 years active, got out and went to school on the GI bill, free education. Took my degree in nursing and spent 20 twin the Army National Guard as a Nurse Officer. Retired as a Major! Good advice!
Old 60s and 70s Ford are such good looking and tough trucks. Glad to see you rocking that Eagle
Why are there so many awesome old trucks abandoned in Iowa!? We're tuned in and watching 😀
Great to see the Golden Eagle in service too!
Stay in Iowa long enough, and you'll abandon more than just cars, you'll abandon hope 😉
Back when these trucks are cheap / new the industry was driven by farming, Farmers never bought a Mopar or a sports car they only bought an F-250 or 4-door station wagon.
In time all the square body Chevys got scraped or bought up during the square body craze, and now it's time to find all those old Fords sitting out back. Always too faithful to scrap! back
@@JunkyardDigs post the pic I sent to Donna on my trip back from Wisconsin
Love the life lessons : ) joined the Guard at 17 years old in 1985. 63N tank mechanic. 6 active and 2 IRR. Also wished I had gone Air Force. Lol. Also qualified for VA home loan. No down payment and seller covered closing costs. Veterans United took good care of me.
Went the same route only active duty Hueys and Apaches...college paid for and now I teach college. Still a mechanic at heart and hobby. Thank you for your service!
Great episode! Life advice, Ohm's law, and scaring Mook with backfiring. What more do we need?
Booger scope, we need booger scope. Other than that it was perfect
Going along with Kevin’s advice about joining some form of military, if that’s not your thing, I strongly recommend trying to find an apprenticeship, I have one with my local water provider here in the uk, and it’s a great way to start earning, get free education, and get paid. You get a decent choice of industries and companies to apply for, so you can really choose something that suits you
Whatever you do, even if it's not college, study, learn, find something that interests you and seize onto it. Don't stop learning and improving your mind.
Absolutely!! The trades industry is always an excellent career choice.
@@JunkyardDigs for me the CNC industry really is something that sparks my interest and I love working with machines, gets paid well and overall a great profession!
Absolutely agree military wouldn't take me so I became a plumber great career thus far.
@@TheRedneckBudha Says "TheMoistDangerousGame"
Kevin, videos like this was the reason i started watching you. The F250 in the woods with Luke will always be gold. I would love to see you guys restore one.
Kevin did a siver 1970 oldsmobile cutlass 350 4 barrel vinil top and it is one of his nicest cars that he ever owned
Discovered your channel very recently trying to learn stuff, liking your advice on life.
I did a few years South African military service, followed by some nursing qualifications because my head was screwed up after active duty deployments. My training was also through government hospitals, got trained, paid and given accommodation. Best advice my dad ever gave me.
Really enjoy you guys fixing stuff on a budget.
Thanks.
In-line 300 6 cyl is probably one of the toughest motors ever made I’ve owned a dozen Ford trucks with that motor over the years and other than being a gas hog they never leave you stranded
All of the F150's that my grandfather owned over the years while I was growing up all had the 300 inline-6 in them. Except for the current truck which has the 4.2 v6 in it. Which is probably based off the Triton and is probably a bad motor. But I don't think there's any Triton badges on the truck so it might not be. :)
Thats why you owned a dozen and not 1? Because they are bullet proof?
Doesn't sounds that reliable if youve owned multiple
@@deshaunjackson8188 tard logic
@@yeetus59 I would buy one drive it a year sell it go a year or two and need a truck and buy another always f100,150 and once a f250 with the 300 never had a problem the f250 hunting one year the carter carburetor got loose leaked gas all over tightened it with a pocket knife and drove it 30 miles home the 300 was originally designed by Cummins as a diesel motor ford bought the patent and changed it to gas
You guys "applied some engineering" with a hammer in a video once, and the phrase has stuck with me. My engineer friends always get a kick out of it.
Reminds me of the "engineer hammer" - no idea if that's the real name or just a nickname, but it's a pretty funny thing to call a very small sledge.
We have one in our tool box at work. It helps re-engineer many things;)
It worked with the satellites valve train, it’ll work with everything.
The expert wording is "percussive maintenance"
Really liked this episode. Some of them feel contrived: This one felt very genuine. Kevin alone with a camera (waxing philosophical) is refreshing.
Bringing old truck back to life, providing free life advise to young pups and comedy all in one video. freaking great content. Good luck with the move
This channel is Quickly becoming one of my favorite channels, thanks for the great content! Big love from Canada
That life coach advice about college and the National Guard is awesome for the younger viewers like my sons, thank you Kevin!
Man… Kevin really did life right so far… wish I could go back 15 years and take some of his advice 😂
Life skills and advice from JYD. CZcams needs more of this.
I lost track how many times a 70's Ford F-Series truck appeared on this channel. But it is Iowa, and they sure do love their trucks.
"You will feel the math course through your body!" -Kevin
I've been watching your videos for the better part of a year now and always discerned you as wise beyond your years both auto-mechanically and life-wise. The details of your Army service cleared that up. Thanks for your service and thanks for your videos. Keep up the good work!
Kevin, this has been one of my favorite episodes yet! Life/mechanic content. Great family values love your whole team family, and CZcams family.
In my country we call that Industrial Engineering, you literally graduate as an engineer without all the bureaucratic hassle. Idk felt like sharing, and as always, excellent video !
Industrial Engineering is more time motion studies / yamazumis, ergonomics, cba, 8 waste, value stream mapping ( reduce cost by increasing efficiency decreasing lead /cycle time). applied would be more mechanical with real world applications similar to Industrial Technology Management or the like
Electrician myself here, nothing wrong with trades as well, to any young guys and gals reading this.
It does beat up your body, but so does dropping transmissions on your chest while under a 60 year old rust bucket 😂
Exactly! We call it engineers with social skills
@@perotekku Good excercise
We had those solid glass fuses in the house where I grew up. Sometimes they would explode entirely if I remember correctly, but was almost 40 years ago.
Thanks for your service! Did 20 years in the Navy and agree 100%. Great choice and heck of a channel you've got! Cheers!!!
"Uff-da"? "Maybe...I DON'T KNOW"? You sir have been hanging out with Derek lately :D
No, I'm just from Iowa
Been watching your content for a couple of years I guess, and have always enjoyed it. I do like that you are including more "training, and knowledge" in your content, and I respect your attitude about career paths and hard work. The knowledge segment you did a while back in the motor home was excellent too as was the info provided on this segment. You're an industrious guy, and I too - many years ago, graduated with a degree in Industrial Technology. Thank you for your military service, and for providing something good, educational, and entertaining to watch here on youtube.
Thanks Kev. I always learn something new from you, and I enjoy watching you figure out the issues you have with cars. All of these videos will help me get my truck running. i hope.
I was a Abrams tank mechanic and a recovery specialist. I learned a ton about the AGT 1500 and how to get stuff unstuck. I had a blast. Did it for 12 yrs before I was medically discharged and although I have pain, I’m now paid for the remainder of my life.
Im working on a 1965 F100 that has been sitting for 17 years after the PO drove it from Texas to AZ, parked it, started to work on it then passed away shortly after moving to AZ. Same sort of setup 300 inline 6 with 3 on the tree. Got mine running but not driving yet, still have a bit of work to do on it to make it road worthy but on a shoe string budget its really really slow going.
Awesome dude, I'm jealous. Always dreamed of getting a 65-66 F100 with the 300. I have my father's sixth generation 100 with the three on the tree 300 straight six.
Just hang in there, my friend. You've got a good solid foundation with that truck.
@@reubensandwich9249 I have a 64 with the 292 V8 ., but it's hard to beat the 240 and 300 sixes. Had a 240 that used up two vans .
Ohms Law E=IR Safety reasons You should always disconnect the ground first before the opposite.
I retired from the NG as an 11C. It paid for 100 percent of my undergrad tuition and most of my grad school. Some risk goes along with the enlistment but it is a great program. I agree about the differences with the Army and the Airforce. I have no complaints but I told my kids if they decide to join, the airforce has its advantages.
The 240 and 300 are some of the toughest engines on the planet. My grandpa has a 240 swapped into his 77 F150 after the factory engine died. And its ran for years without an oil change and had gas in the oil, cracked plug wires, and up until last year a fuel system that sucked more air than fuel. Still going strong. The things legendary
I'd daily that F100 truthfully all the inline six engines I've owned were all strong and decent on the fuel.
But the thing is, it is high mileage and stood for a long time. Probably needs a lot more work to be able to actually daily.
There is no such thing as a bad straight 6. Think about it. All of them are great, because the I6 is the purest, naturally balanced rotating assembly.
@@tnc7399 I bought a 73 f100 302 3 speed for $750 all I needed to make it dailyable was $300 for all the brakes but I’ve put a lot more into it than I should’ve but I daily it
@Tuck's Handmade Goods 11 is better than alot of old rigs thanfully my 89 f150 gets 25+mpg
Yep inline six spins forever, not a Ford guy, prefer Chevy, but the straight six engine is a diamond running forever. Had several 6-cyl Chevy's in the past, no issues at all.
a helicopter revival or plane revival would be sick
Love what you share with us!! Every episode is a great episode!! Your comments about life crack me up!!
I love the guys like Kevin, has more knowledge at his age than I still do, has $10,000 worth of tools, but uses pliers to tighten stuff....Great videos, keep'm coming. And Thank You for your service!!
Literally just got accepted to ISU for the Mechanical Engineering program - I'm now seriously considering industrial engineering lmfao
Look into Ag Systems Technology with Machine Systems focus. It is similar to Mech Eng but less math.
You can actually get a double degree at ISU in 4 years, you will walk away with your AST (AG systems technology) and industrial technology. You basically take industrial technology and add three classes and get a second whole degree.
Give mechanical engineering a try for sure! But if talk to is too hard for you remember there's always i tech.
Walk into sukup and find the reception desk. ask for Tamara and tell her Kevin sent ya 😎🇺🇲
@@JunkyardDigs @Junkyard Digs Hey man! Thanks for the heads up! Been a fan of your vids for a while, and glad I got some damn good advice from them too (Aside from the obvious, when it comes to checking my ignition timing). I'll be sure to do that. I might end up looking into a double-degree. It's honestly insane that you happened to mention this, right now, because I'm just starting all this. Thank ya! From one car-loving iowan to another hah
@@uncreative_name48 absolutely! Starting pay is the same for ME vs itech. ME generally has a higher top end tho. But thats all of course situational
another reason to not leave water in the coolant system is straight up corrosion and rust antifreeze contains rust inhibitors and rubber lubricant's for seals and hoses also antifreeze has a higher boiling point than water
Such good advice that you're giving about college in the military. The military changed my life I'm 60 years old now but it changed my life back in my twenties love the show keep up the good work
Thank you for your service brother! Appreciate that Kev. And life advice was a nice touch to the usual wrench turnin videos. I liked it.
Agreed on your advice with military service. Myself, University of Illinois ROTC program ,1980 Graduate with a degree in Engineering. It was a honor serving my country and the experience from that extended into my working career.
Runs almost as well as my 240. Gotta love’em. ATB.
Great to know you served. The National Guard is a great way to serve and still be able to stay home. I retired from the TN Army National Guard with 22 years.
The good thing about Ford trucks for 67 thru 72, is they changed the grille every single year. Makes them very easy to I.D assuming someone hasnt swapped them around! Those factory radio delete plates are a rare little number to find.
Always happy to see another bumpside done by you, Kevin!
Thanks for pumping out content week after week, amazing work my guy.
Love these old F100s. They are mostly bulletproof!
Especially if they have the inline 6
Kevin, I came across your channel a few months ago, and you got me hooked with your love for doing what you do! I am in process of watching all your videos and liking them all. I also am subscribed to your and Mooks channels as well as PBG channel. You’re a very smart young man with a good head on your shoulders. I’m glad you picked a good MOS when you served, unlike me I was a Tank driver 85-88 stationed at Ft Knox. I watched Mooks latest video or it may have been your, but sounds like you two are finally getting married. Good for you two because I think you’re a great couple. Keep up the GREAT work! Gino
My dad recently bought a ‘67. Same issues! rust around the hood, no gas pedal & rusty floor. Runs though no problems!
It's a good episode! If we here in Europe could have that kind of "junk" it would be great! :D Nice one! The next one will be even better. ;) Nice!
She's soild ish ! Beautiful truck!

Great vid as always, even better for the 2nd viewing. Sound advice too from the master. Kev and Mook are the top of the car fiddlers and always entertain. More that can be said for lots of the others on YT.
Great life advice, I finished a bachelors degree before I found what I actually wanted to do. Now I’m in tech school to get two avionics certifications and an A&P license.
Man keep the vids coming on this truck!!
Hey Kevin, really appreciate your service and great comments about the Army. I have two brothers who were both soldiers, one a career enlisted soldier who retired white 22 years service. My other brother was able to also get his college payed for after his 8 years of service. Love what you do Sir, I hope you, Mook and the Pupper get moved safely and quickly.
Thank you for your service Brother. Retired Army SFC here. You bring back an old desire to bring old vehicles back to life. Tech School rocks.
As a teen in the 90s I had an '86 Eagle my uncle gave me. It was my all time favorite car. So much fun to drive. I worked at a tire shop so I ordered special mud tires to fit the car. Took it mudding all the time.
I love all your life advice. I’m getting old now but if any young person asks I like to say any military job is better than nothing!! Bless you and hope your house move goes well.
My two favorite parts were scaring Mook.
Great video! Always love watching these things. Oddly enough I kind of enjoyed the life advice as well lol. Kind of wish I somewhat took a different path as far as my career choice. Either way much love for you guys! We all deeply appreciate you Kevin and Mook looking forward to seeing the next one.

I appreciate your service to this country! Also thank you for sharing, on this public platform (CZcams), your experienced life information of military, college and financials.

I really relate to Kevin's swearing and cursing in this episode. He usually keeps its clean. But just like me, when under the pressure of a time crunch, you start talking with a potty mouth.

As a vet I tell youngins looking to join the military if you want to prove something to yourself and go through the fire, join the Marines, if you want to a blue collar career join the Navy, if you want a white collar career join the Air Force, if none of those will take you join the Army. 🤣

Beautiful 72 Ford you got there Kevin @Junkyard Digs
That fuel pump with the integral filter... I just replaced the one on my 1977 F150. Got it from NAPA. The one you have looks like it is rebuildable!!! It looks like you can replace the pump diaphragm!!! Mine is crimped. My old 1968 Cougar with a 289/302 had that style pump too, but when it died, I replaced it with a non-filter pump. Shame that contour rear bumper is bent.
240? My '77 has a 1968 240 that someone swapped in. A screwdriver through the sparkplug hole resulted in closer to three inches of stroke. 300 will stroke closer to four inches.
This channel kicks ass, and approaches Watch Wes Work levels of intellect!!
Great video Kevin, and some very good, free, life advice as well. Good luck with the move, I'm sure you & Mook will continue to make great videos.
Great to learn more about the man behind "the magic" 😉 and good honest advice to the youngers, whom may not get that from their school or parents. And you had me cracking at "you will feel the math course through you"... Keep it up fella. Peace from the U.K
