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!!!
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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. 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.
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 😁👍
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
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.
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.
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!
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.
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.............
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 ❤
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.
Of all the cool rides Pablo rode in, he seems to like the Dodge truck the best....or maybe he just likes to ride and you got this one up and running fast. Either way both of you make a great team. Keep up the good work 👍
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
well i really dig those rims on that truck the other good thing is if you ever want to sit out by the pond you could always park the truck next to it and start it up to do away with mosquitos from the smoke lmao hello everyone
Hi Brett & Pablo Brett I have been watching your channel for a couple of years now. I have noticed that Pablo started out as a big boy. He seems to be an even bigger boy now. I think maybe he likes the rides because Daddy gives him some treats when they are in the vehicles. Keep the videos coming and Pablo happy.
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
When ever I see the “ General “ it’s a good day .Love seeing the work on the old engines .More please .!
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.

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 😂
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.

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!
I'm always glad you take Pablo along for a ride. And you are an amazing person. Keep up the great work.
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.
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.
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
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. 😁🤣
Woohoooo.!
Finally, a Dodge that runs.! And it’s Pablo approved.! Great video.
This channel never gets old or boring. There is always something new on the horizon. Keep up the great content Brent!!!
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.
Good stuff thanks for video. I like the way Pablo leans on you !
I love how you're able to laugh when things aren't going perfectly. Always enjoy seeing your vids.
Neat old truck and a donor for the lift mechanism.
Pablo approved it is.
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
Another brilliant episode Brent. Pablo digs the truck in a big way.
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.
:-) Always good when one of your videos appears in my feed. Stay safe out there.
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.
I love the laugh everytime one if these come to life.
Keep the great work hope you have a great day
The old Dodge lives to run again. Great work. Thanks for sharing.
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, Pablo is thinking, " I LIKE IT!!!"...

Awesome. Pablo is like my dog, a stubborn kisser. 🤣
These truck videos are very addictive! Lol. Wish they were available at a reasonable cost over here in the UK 🇬🇧
Absolutely amazing Brent! I really enjoy watching how you bring life back into these great old vehicles that had been forgotten.
Pablo is such a riding character saying "No, I wanna another ride, Please". Love your show as always HK.
WOW I Had a 1956 Dodge 1/2 ton when I was a kid! 50 years ago wow!
Pablo's favorite ride is whatever ride dad breathed life back into at the moment ... We humans should be so easy to please.
I got her running great that is a awesome looking truck great watch Brent 👋👍🇨🇦
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

Good on you for saving them.
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
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.
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.

Your are the master of auto revival!!
Excellent use of the claw hammer!
Pavlo knows that if he waits all good stuff will come his way!
I just keep learning stuff from you on these type videos, which I really like very much.

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.
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.............
Another great save!!! Pablo looks like he might need to cut back on the ice cream! Haha
Your choice of music is always excellent ! Good luck with this one.
wow a remote trigger..... miracles do happen 😅
It was great to see the general back doing what she was designed to do great station
Man Brent I love to watch you revive these old trucks that I grew up with😁👍👍
Pretty cool you got that old trucks story going again!!
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
❤
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.

Great seeing the 56 Dodge rolling under it's own power!! Pablo is so cool! Love that dog.
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.

About the only channel that's worth a smile!

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.
This is just perfect. Thank You! 🤠👍👍👍
Great video Brent.Really like the revival work.Again,the truck was someone's pride and joy off the lot.
Only the General can make a 1-ton flatbed truck look small. Love the channel, keep up the great work.

Great truck, I had a 52 1/2T that I put a 56 Desoto 330 Hemi into... loved it.
Thankfully that PTO you found was a perfect match! Just the right amount of grime to blend right in...
I love your expressions when things go "RIGHT."
Beautiful save, she is in really great shape, amazing ability to bring her back! Love it!
You are amazing my friend and thank you for all you do seriously you rock.
Another great project truck. You´re a lucky fella.

Neighbor has one of these. I hate passing it everyday rotting away. He always compliments my old cars. I think Ill eventually talk him out of it
You find some of the coolest vehicles. That truck is no exception👍
56 Dodge, I approve. Old flatheads don't die. I like the style, It will make a cool project. Thanks ! Pablo looks like me, getting old.
Love how you find these old buggies and haul them home!!! Yup, you haul em home and drive em away!!!
What a neat old truck! Another awesome video. Enjoyed watching. 🍺😃✌️
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 👍
Hi Brett & Pablo
Brett I have been watching your channel for a couple of years now. I have noticed that Pablo started out as a big boy. He seems to be an even bigger boy now.
I think maybe he likes the rides because Daddy gives him some treats when they are in the vehicles. Keep the videos coming and Pablo happy.
Yes very cool well done sir Brent
Great job getting it running after so long .
Brent, you are awesome!!
I would love to have that truck. And I wish everyone had your sense of humor.
I see you got your pipe bender. I was waiting for you to show us your new toy. I guess you just did. Good for you. I love the old Dodge's.
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
Brent very Kool Truck Pablo is a great Dog
I've seen Pablo ride in many different vehicles but this is the first time I've seen him lay claim to one.
Loved seeing you bring her back to life. It was "Some kind of magic" my favorite Queen song. Poblo is in his happy place.
Man,never boring watching your activity.gbu Man and keep
Love the slow Blues background music as much as the video!!!
