Hey...I told it I love it. Man, I paid good money to get it out of the bushes too. Trust me, its a lot better of here at the Classic Truck Ranch. You got to admit that its an ugly old thing though.
If all those old trucks could talk you would spend a lifetime listening to them all. I love what your doing . this is history these trucks built America and deserve some love .
I live in the UK and love these old American Trucks the problem we have in England is with the way that they love putting salt on the roads when we have ice and snow and we all now what salt does to cars/trucks not so bad with the newer ones as they are better protected. I remember back in the 1960s when I was young I bought cars only 3 or 4 years old and they had holes rusted in them so lots of our classic cars and trucks just rotted out there are plenty of old land rovers still on the road but that is only because
Sorry pressed the wrong button and it posted before I had finished the thing about land rovers much like old jeeps you can buy everything from a new engine to a new chassis. These trucks will be going to car collecters who will make them like new or keep them looking used but in perfect working order and only toke them out in summer when there is no salt on the road keep up the good work.
Love your ranch and old trucks but the jittery camera work and rambling at times is ..well, I'll leave it at that lol Did I mention I like your ranch and old trucks..✌️
Thanks Luke...we will keep it up. Be sure to check back, we Have 6 trucks to rescue in March and I am going to start uploading videos of trucks we have already rescued that I haven't had time to put together yet. Next up is "Grandpa", a 1950 GMC 900-series diesel that I literally hacked out of the bushes, got running and drove home. -Rick
Love the videos! I'm 15 and I bought myself a 1948 chevy dump truck with 20,000 original miles. It has hardly any rust and it runs like a dream. Your videos really inspired me. Thomas
That is VERY cool Thomas. Wow...20,000 miles! I bet that's a real beauty. Someone must've really loved that old thing, as I'm sure you do. Hang on to it....its a rare thing to come across and it will only go up in value. Glad you liked the videos too. Classic Truck Rescue -Rick Thank's 'Fer Watchin' Peace-Out!
This is fantastic! We actually now own the 1951 GMC over here in England. We bought it last year after it had passed hands a couple of times with no work being done to it. We now have it running, new glass in it and all the weather seals being replaced while we are waiting for its licence plate to arrive. We still dont have a speedo guage for it though haha. Awesome video to watch, thanks Rick! Emily & Dave
Glad to see it found a good home. Jamie rescued that one all by herself. Contact me at rick@classictruckrescue.com if you want a speedo. Thanks Fer Watchin'. -Rick
My God I wish I lived closer, I'm way down here in Fl. I the past I owned a 57 & a 58 chevy Apache the 57 had a 327, 58 had a 235 both ran great, and are messed deeply .
I had the Matchbox and Hot Wheels collection too Ray in Pa. I used to line them all up in rows and......Hey?? Do you think I might be re-living my childhood? Haha! Thank's Fer Watchin Ray in Pa. Peace-Out! -Rick
The original owner had it stored inside almost all year. It's been in New York it's whole life and it's still in New York now with me. I'm hoping to hang on to it for the rest of my life. Thanks for replying Rick! Keep up the good videos. Thomas
Send foreign cars of all years back where they came from. Wouldn't bother me a bit. I love american classics and feel we are running out. Before we know it, all the other countries will have our american classics just so people here can make a fast buck. BTW, no need to poke fun at a screen name. I was just posting an opinion. I did not imply anything upon you.
+Average Joe Should we also send all of the Vintage "Foreign" cars back to the countries we got them from? I would MUCH rather send a truck to Europe and see someone in another country who has always appreciated and loved and wanted one of those old American trucks show it some love and make it beautiful than to see an American hold it hostage in his field and watch it rot into the ground. -Rick
Well, I'd say it makes me more sad than furious. What does make me mad is when someone has a classic sitting in the weeds and they refuse to sell it to someone who will treat it better or fix it up. Thanks Fer Watchin'. -Rick
Rick on your wildcat thare is a guy in frasnon CA name Jerry truner at truner auto wrecking yard I saw a wildcat thare with the emblem on the front bumper check him out
I knew a old guy, had a glass eye. He would be looking in the other direction, but that glass eye would always be looking at you. LOL "I think it was the glass eye" Dam.
unfortunately we run across bondo buses and bondo bugs all the time here in Missouri. i got about 13 VWs. also have my eye on a 41 chevy that exact color. more rust tho lol
Classic Truck Rescue I don't think so..in this video its the blue stepside truck next to your red tow truck that you got the engine freed up.....the blue step side truck right next to it has the rusty bardon bumper with the two tail light wings.
Military Chevy Does it have Diamond plate on the bedsides What year? Chevy or GMC? I move my trucks around all the time. Because what is sitting next to me red tow truck right now, and when the 1941 chevy &1951 GMC video was made is a 1959 GMC that is turquois. and it doesn't have any primer on the bed. -Rick
If you watch the video, at 25:12 you'll see the front end of the truck I'm talking about. It'll be the truck right next to your tow truck. And it has the bumper I'm talking about.
Rick...when these trucks go to England will they be loaded on the ship like this or are they crated? was wondering bout damage prevention during the long trip..and I do, too wonder what these trucks could tell us about the years gone by..thx for your time and effort .Rich
iamrichrocker Sorry it took so long to get back to you Rich. As far as the condition of the trucks when they arrive overseas, all I can tell you is that I haven't heard any horror stories from my customers. All I can do on my end is ensure that they are loaded up safely and inventoried. -Rick
I discuss buying and selling prices in many of my videos. If I don't, it is because the buyer or seller has asked me not to disclose that. I have to respect the wishes of those I deal with, that is why a lot of people even consent to my filming our deals in the first place. Hope that makes sense and Thanks Fer Watchin'. -Rick
Cool...I have to say, it is sooo awesome that you reply to your fans. You are a damn decent guy. Love what you do! Things only get better for good people....:)
I try to stay caught up on responding to the comments as much as possible. Sometimes I get behind and I just start all over at keeping them current. Its hard to do sometimes because I have to balance how much time I spend on each thing. Thanks again. -Rick
+kennethrobinson11231 You see an International-Farmall OS4, (Orchard Special). That's "Tug". He is my first tractor and a very dear old friend. He is currently doing all of the heavy-lift loading at the old place. I can't wait to have the old guy out at the new property. Just a Good Old Tractor. Thanks Kenneth, and Thanks Again Fer Watchin'. -Rick
+Classic Truck Rescue Yes. The engine and tran. is the same thing. Farmall are taller and the W tractors are lower to the ground. O are the same as W's The only thing different is the fenders.
Hey Rick......Even ugly trucks need love two.....Great video
Hey...I told it I love it. Man, I paid good money to get it out of the bushes too. Trust me, its a lot better of here at the Classic Truck Ranch. You got to admit that its an ugly old thing though.
Rick, that ol fuel truck is keeping an eye on you. LOL.
If all those old trucks could talk you would spend a lifetime listening to them all. I love what your doing . this is history these trucks built America and deserve some love .
I've often said "I wish they could talk". And you are right, I would listen to every story they had to tell. Thanks, -Rick

you 2 are my hero's I tell ya everytime I come across a rotting unkempt classic it makes me furious...
Well, I'd say it makes me more sad than furious. What does make me mad is when someone has a classic sitting in the weeds and they refuse to sell it to someone who will treat it better or fix it up. Thanks Fer Watchin'. -Rick
Demais, fanciful, maneco - Porto Alegre-RS - Brasil.

Hey how much for that bardon bumper on the blue truck next to your red tow truck? Could you do a video on it? Get a closer look. lol
Are you talking about the rear bumper on the 58 GMC? -Rick
Classic Truck Rescue I don't think so..in this video its the blue stepside truck next to your red tow truck that you got the engine freed up.....the blue step side truck right next to it has the rusty bardon bumper with the two tail light wings.
Classic Truck Rescue And sorry...it not blue..its the one with the green fenders...and has alot of primer on the bed.
Military Chevy Does it have Diamond plate on the bedsides What year? Chevy or GMC? I move my trucks around all the time. Because what is sitting next to me red tow truck right now, and when the 1941 chevy &1951 GMC video was made is a 1959 GMC that is turquois. and it doesn't have any primer on the bed. -Rick

Rick...when these trucks go to England will they be loaded on the ship like this or are they crated? was wondering bout damage prevention during the long trip..and I do, too wonder what these trucks could tell us about the years gone by..thx for your time and effort .Rich

They get put in containers.
Why do you not discuss what you paid for each truck or what they sold for?
I discuss buying and selling prices in many of my videos. If I don't, it is because the buyer or seller has asked me not to disclose that. I have to respect the wishes of those I deal with, that is why a lot of people even consent to my filming our deals in the first place. Hope that makes sense and Thanks Fer Watchin'. -Rick
