I love hearing you say “one more try”, and then trying it about 15-20 more times. You’re stubborn in a great way 😂
I want to THANK YOU.
Thank you for saving these old babies from rotting away
You could get a 2 week old Dead Horse to run again...🤣🤣 Another great video look forward to the next one.
That would be a stanky will it run!
My Grandfather used to describe the options on a truck like this as; Armstrong power steering, stomp hard power brakes, and automatic shift it yourself transmission with optional clutch. Yours also has convenience of a hood mounted gas tank and auto door openers.
I drove pickup trucks and cars from the 1960s with no power steering or power brakes and there was no extreme force required to operate the vehicle. Seems to me power steering and power brakes are unnecessary complication on cars and small trucks. Also crank windows work just fine and air conditioning is unnecessary in the northern 1/3 of the US. Replace automatic transmissions with manual also. Vehicles would be more reliable and affordable.
@@tommak6516Just more stuff to go wrong I reckon. My first car was '63 Chevy Biscayne 3 on the tree with a 283! Old USAF car. Drove it into the ground.
@@GeneralSulla What surprised me is if we had some of those old vehicles from the 1960s they would be worth big money now (if in good shape). You can't predict anything I guess.
J>
Yeah, Power steering feels like it takes more force for me to turn the wheel ironically lol. Also I agree on windows, my car has windows that automatically drop to open the door cause the top of the car has a channel the window goes into and it needs a motor to open the door or you would break the glass dodge did some weird shit with the challengers. @@tommak6516
I just have to say that I'm mighty proud of that old starter. It was the real star of the video. It hung in there and cranked as long as you needed it and never complained. Round of applause. I really like how you make those old parts work instead of running to the parts house first thing. I appreciate the way you work. And I really enjoyed riding Dude with you to walmart. It really brought back some fond memories and made me smile.
Starter wasn't doing much work because there was very little compression.
Ppp
They definitely don’t make starters that THAT one anymore.
I really like the old dump truck it's definitely worth saving, great job. An old trick I learned years ago with a stuck open valve if you use a long piece of quarter inch rope and fish a bunch of it into the cylinder through the spark plug hole and bar over the motor that rope can bunch up and push the hung valve back up to free it loose, it's an old trick. Cheers from Jacksonville Florida 🌞
It's also a fool proof way of changing valve stem seals (overhead valve engines). You could hammer on the valves and they won't drop into the cylinder.
The sound of that old 6 cyl engine is like sweet music to my ears. Puts joy in my very soul.
Anyway I don’t know Chad but I think you should’ve put it in Pb Butler and automatic transmission fluid or maybe even some marvel mystery oil normal Translate with Lissa or Night
Share recall that some Worskey flick it always works
Our TV works every time we need to get some of that copper head gasket and I can cash you have to pull it up on because it’s become hard to get I tried to get it for these non-morning and I recently well for my riding tractor and I couldn’t get any
You should put a 12 valve commons diesel motor in it
155 guys would keep walking by this old boy, but there are a few of you yourself included that have a vison that we can't see. It is incredible how you bring these time machines alive again. You make us better at TurningBolts, thank you.
It's extremely satisfying to get an old engine runnin especially when people say you you can't
I worked for an IH Dealership back in the 70s for several years and sold a lot of parts for these old Trucks so I really enjoyed this Will it run episode.
Just wanted to take a minute and say thank you, I love the videos sir. I am happy I stumbled across your channel a couple months ago. The knowledge you shared is great. Ever since I was a young kid I've loved tinkering with small engines, or pretty much any with a motor for that matter. It brings joy to my heart to take something most people would view as scrap or trash and make it work again. It's definitely a dying art with all the computer crap. I've been able to pick up little tricks I never thought of to get something working again thanks again God bless.
👍
@@ThisNThatGarage thank you
@@ThisNThatGarage i actually learned alot while looking at your video's, im gonna go try to repair an old 1963 428 motor station wagon that my grandpa used to drive
Would it haul more than 6 bi

Growing up in the 60's between my dad, uncle and grandad we were always working on the engine in a truck, tractor or other equipment so this brings back a lot of memories. Kudos for hanging in there 👍
Enjoyed the video! The oil trick to build compression is helpful. One trick I use to get the engine to pop is to heat up the number one spark plug. Sometimes that works. These old vehicles have a mind of their own!
It was fun watching you chug-a-lug through that startup. Anything that old sitting that long you pull off the valve cover first thing, and free the valves. Take the carburetor completely apart to clean and put in working order. The timing is too far advanced, thats why its hard starting and backfiring. The air-fuel mixture screw on the carb sets about 1!/2 to 2 rurns out after its seated. Then Adjust while its running. Timing can be adjusted while its running too. An worn out engine doesn't run at peak performance with the using the factory timing spec. It has to be advanced about 3 to 5 degrees from the factory setting.
The pucker factor was pretty high when it started rolling back on its own. Gotta be aware of where things will go if things go wrong and stay out of those danger zones, lol.
Edit: Probably known advice for everyone here, but if you think some valves even might be stuck on an old engine, taking the valve cover off and giving the valves a few whacks with a soft hammer before you turn it over is a good way to avoid possible contact and a big headache.
Also looks like the ol' shade tent took a hit, lol.
Cool looking old truck! I definitely get what you mean there's something about hearing one fire up again!
Man the channel has been killing it, I’m very glad to see that. You work hard and deserve everything good that happens.
Preshate it. 👍

That was pure artistry watching you get that truck running. Its hard when one or two things are flaky but when spark, fuel delivery, valves and compression are acting up it takes a maestro to get that engine to start. This video also had my interest because there was a 1 ton International, same year, on my cousins ranch. Growing up I dreamed of hauling it off and getting it running. Before I moved back to the area some idiots decided to shoot it up and now there is not much left of it. I was able to live some of my dreams seeing you get this one running. If I ever run across a '50 International, I may have to buy it.
Man what a rig, loved watching this and thanks for saving the old girl, I commend your dedication to getting her running
You can run a chain through a heavy length of pipe and draw the chain tight by backing two vehicles together till you have just enough slack on both ends of chain to make turns. Grandpa taught me
A little of that Tennessee shine down in the gullet of the beast, and she will roar like a lion!!! Once again well done young man, and thanks for sharing!!!
You're a real master of the English language. Wife is always correcting me for my versions of words. But I really enjoy the videos. Rippin shit apart and makin it work again. A true putzer.
I for one love your stubbornness and wanted that engine to start as much if not more than you Chad. I'm pretty sure the other gearheads watching here feel the same way. I can't say enough good things about this channel, Chad had me hooked from the first time I heard him say, "auhhh Yaa" not to mention the man sings like a songbird 🎵🐦.... I'm on pt 2 of the Fire Dragon heat exchanger right now... My goodness what an ambitious build !
Great content creator !
This was awesome, I love that old international. If it ain't squeakin', it ain't intriguin'. great job!
You know if you're not honest how is anyone else to learn. You said in one of your videos your daddy said to be honest, this is why. Yes, we listen to older folk and listen to their wisdom, but they are older and don't care about how silly they may sound. they just don't care. So your honesty is commendable. I really enjoy watching and listening to you.
I like your old black Chevy truck. My dad used to own a blue one he said, and he called it Ol' Blue. He used to cut and haul firewood in it alot before i was born, in the 70's. Thanks for the videos and the DIY teaching. 👊✌️
Just wished to say thank you for a wonderful and very enjoyable video.
I've just been sat in front of my log burner on a cold winter's afternoon in East Yorkshire, England 🇬🇧 watching your video which brought back happy memories of watching the chap who lived opposite us spending many a happy summers day working on his old trucks.
Thank you from across the pond. 🇬🇧
👍👍
Your content is GREAT!
Your channel as well as Sleeperdude!
Y'all both Tennessee Boys, and you sucked in a Detroit boy, livin the Tennessee Country Dream up yonder in Brighton, Tennessee!
Thank you for your honesty, integrity, and terminology you have introduced me to over the last 2 months!
I am forever a fan!
So very well done, that ole pickup at 29.12 sure gets a move on!
Well done with the International, look forward to more on that baby even if she's hard to steer.
Thanks for great entertainment and take care when working on these vehicles especially when they blow back at you!
I owned a couple of 52 L110s so this was close to my heart. Those old trucks are the best of any make as long as you don't need parts. They don't rust because the body metal is too thick.
When I was a kid, we knew a family where the husband was a paleontologist. He drove an I-H Travell-All (probably late 1960s). It was a beast. Every summer, he'd drive it a coupla thousand miles from his home to his research site on the Burgess Shale. I don't know how many miles it had on it when they replaced it in the mid-1970s with a Jeep Wagoneer. I always felt like we were heading out on safari in that I-H travellall.
У нас похожие машины до сих пор на ходу . Так в профиль смотришь , "ЗИЛ" . СССР копировал машины , оборудование было поставлено во вторую мировую , я сам на такой учился ( на советском варианте ).
Watching you start that International up, took me back almost 70 years (yeah I'm that old, 79). I remember those 6 bangers would always fart back when they were cold. My first job as a commercial driver, included driving a 55 International one ton, and I am guessing the engine you have, is out of a later International truck.
That was an awful lot of work. But you didn't give up and it worked. Thank you. I love these old trucks.
You crawled over the truck to put air in the tire by the fence. I laughed so hard when the air hose slid right back to the other side. I thought thst would be my luck too.
I don't know bout the rest yawl but I give a Thumbs Up and a Like BEFORE I watch the video because you know Chads no punk and you know he's going to bring it ! 🔧
well, that was a good job, I never thought you get that baby running, thank you👍👍👍
You are an amazing mechanic. Couple weeks working on this engine and you are off!! Driving around. Truly amazing. Wish I had your talent
I’m addicted to watching all your videos and using them as background noise while I work, thanks for making them! 👍
While you had it running … should have taking it back where you got it. You are a great mechanic
You hit it on the head making something old that hasn't ran in decades is my favorite thing to do love it nice as always
What a lovely truck. Hoping you get it a-going - has a good look to it. Lots of potential. Love the serene blue color of it. Was sharp back in it's day. Thanks for sharing the start of this trucks new lease on life. 😉👍
Glad to see you stick with and get it running. Persistence pays off!
Good going in getting this one running. Seems like your total investment this farm aside from the battery, is purchase price, some brake line, points, some spark plug wire, sealer and sundries. Not bad at all! Loved what you did with the carb - remember doing much the same with an engine (rebuilt) that we hauled out of a yard for my Dad's old 1960 Chev: we made 1 good carb from the 2.
Thanks for the great work and interesting content.
I watch a lot of different people on CZcams working on cars and such-like, out of them all, I’ve come to the conclusion, that, in my humble opinion, you have the best taste in music.
I really enjoy your videos. I get inspiration to get out and work on my own projects by watching you. No matter how frustrating it gets you never give up. Keep ‘em coming!
That’s Kool‘Running and Driving;Love listening to the old drive train,Really enjoyed the video!Take Care, Your Oregon Friend’☮️
I’m retired Air Force, I remember in the 1970s there being auctions on base of military equipment. We would often see Air Force members driving retired Air Force vehicles on base.
Great job. I do so love the way that you stick with things, even when they get way problematic. Yeah baby!
I have the same cosmic understanding of mechanical things! I would rather work on a chunk of old iron than anything else. Great satisfaction is had! Keep 'em coming. A loyal subscriber!
I like that old truck. On my relatives farm They had a two Internationals . A KB-2 and a KB-5. My aunt and Uncle had an International dealership in Pennsylvania.
I'm really glad he's ok. Thank you for sharing your adventures.
Had no idea you lived so close. Its a small world! Keep on keepin on with the good content. Love the revivals!
I thought for sure that the motors was going to need to be torn down... You have way more patience than I do... Keep on, keeping on...!! Cheers...!! Ken
That’s officially the toughest starter I’ve ever seen or heard tell of😉🤣😎
Wasn't much compression so it wasn't working very hard.
I use the paper dragging deal to clean the micrometers faces. Metal shop teacher taught us that in 1969
Man that engine runs GOOD. Just had to get it started and free off that stuck valve, it cleared its throat nicely. Bit weak for a truck like that, but I could see it being a nice swap into something else from the era that needs an engine.
Bud, if I ever come across a car or truck that's been sitting for a while and I try to revive it, I ALWAYS put a cap full of oil down every cylinder before I attempt to start it. The cylinder walls are easily fuel washed and it won't have enough compression to farr up, the oil helps the rangs to come back around. At least enough to build a c-hair of compression.
Hi Chad, hope your neighbour is ok now. The truck would look awesome lowered and a big block v8 in her...... Keep up the old rusty gold... have a great weekend..
I think that carb popping might be the timing
I just realized it has a square body Chevy step bumper on the front. What a cool old truck. Primitive to say the least. Love your videos.
There is a charm in repairing told trucks and automobiles! I´m glad I found your channel.
You have got the stick with it spirit, slow and steady gets it done. Definately loved every second , I'm now working on my patience . Thanks for the show, Wonderful...Stu in Canada !!!!!
Glad you got that old history like the cans and flares, we had to use that stuff once upon a time.
Makes me apreciate the mid 70s 80s stuff. Not so much the 2010s and up computer stuff . Nice old body style on that truck,
That is the key starter toggle switch under the hood and the terminal with connector is rust steel. So clean the rust out that the battery connection is contact touching good then hook up to the electric motor that is motor starter. Then the ignition switch goes thru the fire and finally then goes thru the dashboard. Thanks.
You're awesome man, I love your videos! I grew up working on classic Japanese motorcycles from the 60's and 70's and watching these videos reminds me of my childhood in a way. Keep on keepin on, I really dig your idea for the build by the way! 👍
I love how any part of old tech can be easily repaired
Ignition timing seems to be out a little ,turn the distributor slightly one way or the other, or use a timing light to get it correct!😉🇬🇧
Your tenaciousness is encouraging! Didn't know international had overhead valves that early 1950. Same year I was born lol. Couldn't have been much over 200 cubic inches. But from what you've said it's a bigger motor than I thought. Thanks again for the interesting content. Dave
Motor is a little newer that the truck.
Hey brother that’s a sweet old truck hope you restore it up love to see it. Please keep us in the loop Appreciate ya brother
Great fun watching that engine being encouraged back to life. Hoping we see some of your new workshop build when it happens.
I have spent the entire day binge watching your videos. And i see absolutely nothing wrong with it.:)
👍
An easy 1 man brake bleeder is a bottle with a hose and brake fluid already in it. you keep air from being sucked back in with it only having new fluid to suck on
I think what you really want is a new truck that looks like an old truck!🤣
With the constant back fire and even with the change over of the other carb , it did it even more , I saw on another channel the guy did all the same stuff as you are doing and was running Into the same issues with it staying running and kept back firing as he's trying to restart it , a watcher of his channel told him that his timing is to rich to turn his distributor cap more lean and he barely moved it and wow that was it and it never have him an ounce of trouble since , I'm not a mechanic by any means , my dad was and he was old school ! I learned a lot, enough to never take even my new vehicles in for repair , do it all myself, even now that I'm a wheelchair ound person I get. y Slef to the ground and work my breaks , oil change , radiator rwplace.ent 2 times this year and an alternator, water pump between the 3 vehicle's we have and I enjoy doing that ki da of stuff , but like you , I wish I had the big shop to do it in instead of the driveway. Keep on keepen !
I love these videos! I'm excited to see the upcoming garage! You're going to be rolling in CZcams $$ soon. Very excited to see you & your channel grow.
Ps, I loved how you said, "when a friend stops by to talk, you talk"
I love your channel... no nonsense repairs that I can follow... thanks... it won’t fit in the basement, will it?😂✊🏾👍🏾... I actually closed my eyes when it came out of the hole and bumped the parked tractor... whew...
It'll fit in pieces!
If a guy would run the chain though a pipe the rig being towed can't run in to the towing it. Logged for years an seen this work every time. Great video brother 👍.
Good ole truck ye got there.the more you drive it the better itl run. Good simple durable trucks congratulations on getting it going .Good job man👍👍👍👍👍
Awesome video! You should do a walk around of this place and we can tell you what cars you should get running!
Thank you! A really good rescue of ancient vehicle well done.. Do restore it 👍👏👏
Thanks Chad, you both put in a good fight. We like your ideas on where you want to go with it.
Central California watching
IBM the push button starte that you did sanded the connection inside push button but the push button starter is under the hood. Not under the dashboard because the push button is not fancy enough to be vintage push button Starte.
The things I would do if I hit the lottery.... I love these old trucks. I remember my granddad driving em for his business when I was a kid (much like you). My dream has been to get my hands on some oldies and fix them up. So much fun.
So the starter works, its just everything else that needs replacing. My brother-in-law and i rewired an old motor and the only cable he had for the wiring loom was green, so every single cable got replaced with lovely new perfect for the job green wire. It all worked perfectly, but heaven help whoever had it later, i mean as i said it all worked, but you would have no clue as to what was going where.
FINALLY, someone uses Evaporust to fix somethin!! I use that stuff all the time and every restore video I see is more like a replace video. Any hoo good on yah!!
How can you not enjoy this content if you are a petrol head , anything with a motor and learning a few trix , cool .
Man that’s a cool old truck… Glad you got er going…
As long as the man is okay that's all that matters, I have been there, trust me.
Hope your friend is ok. Thinking that #4 valve is hanging once in a while. Great to see the old girl rising from the grave.
I'm watching this beautiful old iron come back to life while eating homemade potato chips and drinking sweet tea. Aaayeee!
I used to run the truck slab at a tire place and had to fix and mount and all the fun in between. Even had a few blow up on me! WHOOO!!! scared the soul outta me! And couldn't hear anything for 3 days😂
I'm amazed with how clean the engine is cause most of em are kind of greasy but that ol engine would probably be worth going through, if, you can get the parts for it and it might take off and run good without having to do anything to it. Seems to run pretty good from setting as long as it did
Wow Chad. Good job getting that old truck running would have been nice to see you fighting steering
The pics of what it can be made into looks badass. Can't say I've seen one
Hey, when are you going to build your New Shop? I enjoy watching you work on Junkers and you always make them run.
Hopefully this month sometime.
That old couple sitting on the porch.....She pokes him in the ribs cause he's nodded off " That boy has went and got Mr Crabtree's old dump truck what's that boy up to now!

I would have to look up the breakdown of it but the easiest way to tell the size of the engine on those old International straight 6 engines is by the coordinating color designation. If the engine was for example painted red there would also be a casting in the side of the block that would say Red Diamond, if it was painted green it would have the words Green Diamond cast into the side of the block. They had several Diamond color engine series.
Those engines were flatheads,I'm not sure this is an International engine in this truck.
@@chipps1066 they continued to use those designations even on the overhead valve inline 6 cylinders into the 60’s.
That 1950 would have come (new) with an SD 220 or SD 240 cu in.
SD = Silver Diamond
The wonders of youtube, all the way from england you can take a trip with a buddy to the store 😄 thanks for taking us along, i couldnt believe that truck rolled out of there that easily 😳 i guess he was standing a bit too close but who would of expected it to roll like that after all that time, great video as always keep on wrenchin 👍🏾
I enjoyed that it brought back so many things I'd used do when I was young.
