6-71 Detroit International. Will it start? Will it move? Will it runaway? 

A very cool old truck 👍 the Detroit Diesel is the icing on the cake, I hope you show her some love and put her back on the road...

Been there done that as I started driving in a 72 Fleetstar 2000 238 Detroit Diesel.

I would love to have a old service truck like that

Great sounding truck. I enjoyed the tour through the back 40.

Would be a cool old truck fixed up! Love those. I drove a Fleetstar with a Cummins in driving school.

Another great video my friend! 😁👍 That ole *drip-troit* sounds good! Yeah, that shifter must have been cut down. Usually they would be like 3ft long and angled towards the dash. Glad you could get the truck running without much headache at all. Don't blame you one bit on the power steering. 🔧

Great sounding old truck!

Of course it'll start..its a detroit isnt it?great sound and video.....

Ive got the same truck in dark green except it has the international gasoline V8

Excellent 👍

Such precise steeering, too!

HA yet again Cosby sauce prevails. Minty

I haven't seen many 2 stroke Detroits that haven't started. I remember a silver 92 that needed an ECM so it wouldn't start.

Those old detroits can sit for soooooo long and just startup sure they aren't fuel efficienct or quiet or powerful and love to leak but you cannot argue they are reliable asf

Yes! A binder with a Detroit!!!!!!!

A very interesting apparatus for the project, and on this basis, various options can be interpreted. For home use, for business, for travel. Almost everything is ready. The minimum addition and all!

I would buy it

Hey. HPGG sent me. Just subbed

Hey I noticed you had a early to mid 90s dodge Dakota. How much would you want for the hood and would you ship?

Lol, I don't think I've ever seen a detroit that doesn't need a gallon of ether to start

If you do ever get a runaway diesel, the only way to stop it, is to cut of the engines air supply at the intake. Putting your hand over the air intake is prolly the best way!

Was this a fire truck in its previous life?

The engine does not run away ///////////the mechanic does.

If you are intending to restore your old trucks, you would be better off not trying to start them without doing a lot of preparation. Especially on a Detroit. If there is any rust on (in)the throttle rack, the engine may run away and self destruct. There will be some rust somewhere inside, on cylinder bores,valve stems etc.etc.Some checking and pre lubrication should be done. It could save a lot of money and time later. I saw a very recently of a beautifully restored B Model Mack, and the engine a complete miss on one cylinder. I wonder why.I would not take a truck to a show in that condition.!!!

I want it!

The title of this video puts me in the mindset of “ cotton eyed Joe.”
