Well it's a North Western truck, it is in pretty good shape besides some dents and dings from Grandpa using it like a farm tractor lol. Mostly rust free and still has some paint on the frame too which is surprising for it's age. The engine however is currently undergoing a overhaul I'll explain about that in a future video.
I can't really answer that question because this was our first time starting the truck in this kind of weather. The truck had been sitting for almost a year so the carburetor was dry, so if it only had been sitting a week or so I'm sure it would've fired up without priming.
