Man I never heard that one.
"If ur trailer has more axels than ur house than ur winning "
I love that one. That almost makde me spit my drink out.
That's how you know you made it in life!
@@MortskeRepair man id fix that thing clean it up and drop it on some 20in mobsteels
I thought it was hilarious myself
Amen!!! 😂👍😁
"There's nothing more permanent then temporary plumbing!"
Had me laughing real good on this one
It's the truth tho!
I love how squares bring so much happiness to people🤝 i love my 79💪
Now if this doesn't say America I don't know what does.
I freaking love squarebody's!
Freakin A! So does Hugust!
Me three, I own one.
Gentleman's Chevy
Will have to save that one for future use!
Gay mans Chevy more like it
I love these trucks. My brother had a 76 C10 for years. I loved working on that thing. I could just sit in the engine compartment when I needed to work on it. Tech tip: Don't bend the power steering pulley. They are much more difficult to find than they should be.
haha I've got a box of them pulleys!
Fine truck, let's see how a new one would do in the same situation. Nothing like an ol' real truck 😉👍
Bringing old and long abandoned vehicles back to life is something that gearheads never get tired of. I hope the old gal has a brighter future at a good home. Staying out in some pasture all by her lonesome is heartbreaking.
She's already making strides and is back on the road!
@@MortskeRepair Excellent. :-)
“Swedish nut lathe” I nearly choked on my sammich.
Perfectly roundish! Every time!
I can't stop laughing
STOP.....bababahahahaha!
That sound like sizzlin' bacon...I like how he said, " do we have any snow" LOLOL
My dad has an old square body Chevy that he's been wanting to restore pretty soon. Been sitting for about 20 years I think. Soon as he's ready to start I'm definitely gonna be helping as much as I can.
Awesome that you guys got it to run so quick. Hopefully it’ll drive on the road or fields soon. It’s good to have people like you work on these rather than to have them rot while there is still demand and appreciation for them.
Him and Duff has the coolest videos.
I like taking trip with this guy. I know he'll find good stuff.theres nothing like a junk truck and a cold beer on a winter day
You could wash that up and your ready for a car and truck show.
I’m glad I could “help” you get that abandoned square out of the weeds!
I'd be lying if I said I did it all! I mean, you did pump up that tire and pull it out of the hole.
Mickelson got a new sub 🇩🇰
@@calleolsen9359 thank you!
@@calleolsen9359 He owes me a sammich for every subscriber. So I thank you!
@@MortskeRepair
Hope it’s a big one 😂
She’s a runner! What a mint unit. Always nice and warm too thanks to internal and external combustion. 🤣
Toasty toasty!
Yes a square body long bed. I'm going to enjoy this one.
That 76 got some go to her. Them old quad-4s are not bad.. Ive rebuilt a few . I put j.b.weld on the freeze plugs,in the bottom of the float bowl. I think i did somthing with the accelerator pump linkage. To increase the throw on the plunger.. She came alive. Thanks again for all these awsome videos.GOOD TIMES!!!👍🏻👍🏻
Glad you enjoyed it! Great carbs when they work!
Snow for a fire extinguisher... Nice touch... I'll remember that one. Those old chevy motors just run and run... Good video.
Canadian fire extinguisher! Always keep one handy!
That fire was terrifying and awesome at the same time. Ran pretty well though. I'd daily that thing for sure ! Thanks for the laughs !
Thanks for watching Erik!
"Don't use the right size wrench, use a pipe wrench" had me dying
I made a stupid comment before you knowing what I know and what other's know. I've been going back and forth on your channel and see a few of these square bodies and you obviously know the value in these things. I enjoy all your videos and miss doing this stuff and saving all that I can. I'm shocked that you find all this stuff in no man's land. Keep up the good fight and keep the videos coming. Thankfully the aftermarket is what it is and getting better
Will do!
I haven't even finished the vidya and I've already almost spat out my coffee at least 3 times from laughing so hard. Y'all should definitely do more collabs together, this is great
Noted! I’m sure Mortske would love to have me watch him work more often!
MRC can't afford the sammiches required for frequent guest appearances!
@@MortskeRepair let alone source them!
@@MickelsonRacingChannel You gotta get creative!
My dad had the 76 crew cab Sierra grande these trucks were awesome! I hope that they fix this truck up...! Thank you for bringing back great memories!
You bet
That looks like a Gentleman Jim! They're worth every bit of $1000 fully restored!😂😂
Tens of dollars!
I’ve never commented on any of your videos so far, I’m a newer subscriber but i think this one is my favorite so far. I definitely almost spit out the drink a few times. If you and vgg ever get together on a collaboration it’s over 🍻. Keep up the great work man, really enjoy your videos.
Wow, thank you! I appreciate the kind words and for watching and subscribing as well!
Thanks for watching!
You guys are a riot to listen to! Mortske, why don't you join his crew at a race or something else different? I can hear it now: "Oh yeah, lots of duct tape'll fix anything!" Voila, duct tape body for racer.
Ain't nobody got time for that!
@@MortskeRepair Who said it would be for free? Video it for the channel!
Mortske you madman that had twisted tea cut had me rolling. BOOM!
It just hits different
you guys were made for each other - fun times
I'm sure his significant other would argue against that!
I swear, yours are the best videos on first starts and other stuff on youtube! The commentary and small video clips are amazing! I've learned a whole new language of descriptive terms from you and a deeper appreciation for a few good Barley sammiches!
Haha glad you enjoyed it and thanks much for watching Paleo! Always look forward to your comments!
Hi Brother Mort, this is probably my favorite episode .... I'm still working on my sons 79 GMC, it's the SAME color, and has the SAME grill ... I feel like i'm out freezing with you!!!! The dash and seat in this 76 are actually better than those in my sons 79. Nevertheless, I return to re-watch this one at least monthly. God bless you!!
Right on!
Holy Bazinga Mortske, I never seen you so happy ! But you never did turn the camera down upon U'r self ! I see
somebuddy knows how to treat their best friend to a vest. Poor Duff, he kudda dun better. The " Nickle " man
did himself a solid by calling on the greatest fire & rescue, sammich slammin' Hombre in da fly-over states.
But you done did get'er dug out by hook or by krook. U can be part of my rescue sqwad anytime !
haha thanks much for watching!
Doin' Ford stuff. Draggin' GMC's. I about choked on my coffee. Done that a time or two.
I had a 79 gmc identical to this one as a 14 y/o - bought it for $500 as my first vehicle. sold it to a farmer and 23 years later, my dad bought it back and is fixing it up for MY kids (his grandkids). I hope to keep it running for several more years.
These are great pickups. My dad had one Camper Special with a 454. Man it would drink the gas.
Laughed a lot on this one ..... like a kid in a sweet shop.... finding all the “accessories”......plugs etc😝....an it certainly fired up 😳😋👍🏼keep em coming.
Dude that was awesome....been having a good squarebody run , c10 addicts thank you
I'm glad I could get my hands on a few! They're great rigs to work on!
A little red line for a good Time.
Plus a good little fire. Lol
CZcams gold
Duffmeister 3000 and his buddy dog
Shoutout from Copenhagen Denmark 🇩🇰
Zeus the Weimaraner!
@@MickelsonRacingChannel
Nice dog
My hearing is not what it used to be
So I heard it as deuce 😂
That’s why I didn’t put a name on him in my comment
Tell him I’m sorry 😂
@@calleolsen9359 He's duece, cuz he's always #2 to the Duff!
@@MortskeRepair
Good one 😂
Dogs are like children
The one you got is always better than the neighbours 😂
@@calleolsen9359 So that's where parents get that attitude!
That's one beautiful 76 GMC Squarebody brother. I love the red and white color as well.
There was some good laughs in that one. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it Steven!
Another good one Mortske, thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it
I was laughing more than a couple times while you guys where working on that chevy some on the things said where GREAT!
Mortske is always good for a laugh!
I don't know if you'll see this. But I think Duff should be the channel mascot. I'd totally buy a shirt that had him on it
He most definitely is
She is a right beaut. Got a nice gem right there ,.... my first truck was a 1973 chevy chyanne super , 12 inch lift,44 boggers, built 327, full roller motor,1 ton axles. I was 15. Me and my dad built it..... It was stolen 5 yrs later I found it waaaaayyyy. in the country with the front clip torched off,motor gone,axles, gone all glass broke, got a shell and my 44s back thats it. There was 30 stolen trucks at the property!!!!! In 2005
Dang that sucks!
@@MortskeRepair a life lesson was learned that week!!
“HOW DARE YOU!” 🤣
Great rescue. I knew she'd be a runner after you swapped out the summer battery for the winter one. Luckily you were able to put the fire out before the ammunition lit up.
Always keep a canadian fire extinguisher on hand!
I love the C10 square body trucks. Get it on the road!
Amazing handoff to Mickelson, and he got it running and stopping.
I heard a Letterkenny reference .... Good Enough ... Good Stuff!
I could watch kids fall off bikes all day!
You’re spare parts bud.
@@rhubarb99999 That's what I appreciates about ya rhubarb!
3 pump brakes are how I learned to drive. My whole life I been giving em a tap to see if they're home.
It's a pleasant surprise when they work!
Motor just starts then gets revved to 8K for twenty minutes underload. Awesome
We do what we know how to do!
Great bodystyle. I just pulled a 1969 c30 from the weeds. Let's see if I can get it going on my channel.
The Jimmy that keeps on giving!
Just givin 'er!
Oh man that dad joke: everytime you hook a strap to somebody, make sure you say “you follow me”
How much beer??? All of them lol love ya morskie
Somebody, anybody, be this mans battery sponsor!!!
You guys sounded like you'd had too many of those beers. LOL
Camera shy, gotta have a few!
Tools found in newly bought vehicles are the best.
Makes up for all the ones we lost over the years!
Keep it love squarebodys sell it to me ! She a good ol truck
Good one thats a runner
Central California Watching
😆🗯"Yeah baby"
Square box was the style,
when there still was style❕
My baby brother still has my Dad's 78 GMC Sierra Classic over 300000 and it still starts and runs.
Great old rigs!
"You follow me."
Classic! Lol
KNOCK KNOCK !!!!! You doing ok ? What no videos for me to recover from surgery ? I had my gallbladder ripped out today ! Lol. Teeth 3 weeks ago and now my gallbladder ! Shit it sucks getting old ! Lol
Man I wish I could be there out in a cold snowy field trying to get an old Chevy running 🤣. Hope that was a dead soldier that fell off the fender and not a full beer. I've done the Ford thing several times and pulled a Chevy/Dodge home. Unfortunately they were never around when I needed a tow
GMC. Gentleman's Chevy....lol I like that,...clean it up, its a daily driver, has to be the easiest rescue I've seen...
I could smell that “old car smell” when he opened the door....
It really singes the nostrils!
1976 GMC truck is still look good condition needs everything new battery tune up they don't make those trucks anymore bless you friend automotive repair cars and trucks
In typical squarebody fashion those front brake hoses collapse under the metal bracket that bolts them to the upper A-arm and hold brake pressure on the caliper. Ask me how I know. Ha love the channel!! Keep up the good work.
If only we had a budget for new parts!
This cool truck running
I liked them old chevy crack jack pickups ..
They were rust buckets fenders rocker pannels .hood hinges you always had to grease .. buddy of mine had a cheyenne that was chromed out another friend had the Gentleman Jim .fully loaded ..
Nice! The fuel volcano out of the vent tube was a nice touch :)
At least it didn't ignite!
@@MortskeRepair that would haved sucked. But it would have made a great thumbnail :)
@@HFG you have missed some great explosions if you haven't watched some in the past.
@@RoyMarkosGarageRMG I'm trying to catch up on everyone's stuff. It's like having two full time jobs lol
@@HFG Risk it for the biscuit!
THE funniest Mortske video ever! Sides are splitting! How many sammiches was it? Great stuff keep it coming! Would be fantastic to join you for a first start awesomeness.
Glad you enjoyed it James!! It was pert near too many if I'm gonna be honest...
Thanks for watching!
When you can't have your own sammich for fear of a spit take. Thanks guys. "This is your multi tool"
No drinking and watching Roy!
Shoot bud a minty square and a good looking weimaraner in one video. Just earned yourself a new subscriber!
Thanks Poochy!
That sumbitch sounds amazing
Not bad for a bunch of junk laying in the weeds!
The r2d2 scream just make my day
15:47 WOOOOO DAMN SHE'S ALIVEEEEEEE!!!💪
Come on guys it doesn't matter ford or chevy or mopar ext that's a good looking truck let's give it some love
Tum Wrench Swedish nut lathe lol hahaha what a gem! Hahaha
Rounds em off every time!
cold beers on winter days and on gravel and dirt roads what a great time beating fun fines
Next video with it: Pull that humongous trailer with it! I'm talking a few yards on the flat. Oh yeah, the fifth wheel install on the square body doesn't have to be permanent, just removeable from the trailer.
That’s a good idea!!!
Another great save! Thanks for another entertaining video. You never did give a sandwich count till you got it running.
I lost count after 17...
I got a spare body Chevy they r awesome like a rock and no rust on it !!!!
That thing probably does have only 64000 miles on it. I've never seen a minivan snatch a full-size truck out of some holes like that before, that is definitely the power snatch of the century.
Where there's a will there's a way!
Is duff dog an Australian Shepard hound dog mix? He is gaining on popularity with the likes of lassie and such. Way to go duff!!
He's a brittany spaniel!
Good ole' Quadrajunks.
Nice buck rub on the tree beside her.....that explains the ammo. 1976 deer blind!!
Really put the sneak on em!
"10s of followers" plus one. Instant sub from me. Loved it
Dang!! He's up to almost 14 now!! Thanks!
Hey thanks for checking out the channel!
Man I been busy AF & FINALLY GOT TO CATCH UP ON UR ADVENTURES. I LOVE UR CONTENT BROTHER. KEEP IT UP. LOVE YA DUFF!!!
Glad you enjoy it! Thanks for watching David!
Get in there duff lol all the tools we need to get it running. Love it
We'll be ripping in no time!
From the land of the sky blue waters!
Hamms!
That made laugh, good job gentlemen.
Mr. Mortske, just another fine version of American ingenuity! A ‘76 with its own NASCAR tool kit as standard equipment. DIY at its finest. Great video guys. Ton of laughs and a camp fire to boot. Thanks. Big Al. Mr. Mortske, what is your first name? Stay safe.
I'm like Lebowski! I just go by Mortske!
The lack of flexi rad hoses is rather refreshing!
That's why it's overheating!
Great truck! Cheers! -Al 🍻
Thanks
That dog has a better coat than my ex wife! Time to put the minivan out to pasture and hello GMC!!
Better coat than I was wearing that day that's for sure!
Nice score buddy! I love that color combo- remember to oil those hood henges.
They did have some great colors back then!
i reached for that beer as it was falling
Hopefully you didn't spill yours during the process!
I, on the other hand, did not! 😂
