FINALLY, so glad to see this back, thought it was lost forever after taking a swim with VGG!

About a month ago, I was at a rest stop on I-85, south of Atlanta. There was a lady there walking a Great Pyrenees. (BIG DOG!) Huh. That was the same as breed as Jared's. Uh, wait a moment. Wasn't there a white Escalade near by?

Give James a battle axe and give off those Gimley from LOTR vibes. 🛠️

The truck is awesome. It could use a little exterior upgrade with a spray on bed liner

I just told you I've been sick for some months and got some catching up to do. I wasn't lying brother. Lol. Love the channel.

Johnny ALL REVVED UP! It's about time he came back to life.

Dwayne, on the picture; I cannot imagine a better setting for a picture portrait of Jared! Definitely in his environment! Good times, Dwayne, glad you are along! James, you really ought to wear a flashy cape when you dhow up at Jared's garage! On the future for Johnny; never take him near any puddles or ponds!

Jared > Tavarish

Yes, Editor Duane, it actually is a very cool shot. There were quite a few this episode.

Gotta love James, a man who really gets into his work. Like really into the engine bay.

I'm trying to get amd to start doing coronet parts. It might be classic industries who also might be doing corvair parts.

Jared...I saw the Coyote engine in the background that says Coyote Duster on the engine cover...that's just awesome! Chrysler purists are going to go INSANE, but I love it!

4th engine! Hopefully, Johnny will never need a 5th one!

As a former woodworker turned hoarder, I'm appalled by the hand plane sitting in the back of the truck. Could be an interesting collaboration to get it restored.

The hard part is just when you think you are THIS CLOSE to being able to drive your project something else rears its ugly head. I'm an electric fan not running and a steering ram replacement away (but mostly the fan) from hitting the road but my sequential turn signals (original unit) decided to give me a fit. I think I'm going to go solid state if I can't get it freed up (when it works it very VERY slowly cycles) It's the signature part of owning a Cougar so I want them to work properly.

Have watched your videos since the start when it was called wrench every day, from the moment it changed due to it beeing his(fredies) catch phrase. Since then my fewership for him declined. Also greatfull for your contribution on cartrek. But never seen the chemistry between fredie and the other 2 . Yes saw a some what betwwe tyler and ed Jope you keep on dooing these honest and nice content for a verry long while keep it up dont let others cloud you jusgment morale or mental state in any way. You are a great guy we need more like you in this world and on youtube

It's funny how I learned about Jared from Tavorish and don't follow Tavorish anymore lol

The motor is so low you could point the air filter straight up 😂

That was the best music I have ever heard from a RU-vidr ROCK ON !!!

Did I miss something? Why did he sell the dually? Didn't he just get that?

I’m so excited to see the story of Johnny Reb’ continue this is such a cool build as it’s mechanically a restomod but visually such a cool piece of history! Keep up the awesome content!

"My tire stack is taller than you" "yes, i know... I've been meaning to talk to you about your problem"

After you put in the engine and you went for the test drive, the plane on the load bed suggests that it was all "plane" sailing for you. LOL.

Did anyone else get really nervous when the “83 minutes later…” appeared on the screen after the mini burnout? Thought maybe he blew another engine 😅

A rolling burn out! Awesome!

Hi Jared nice video 📹 and workmanship sounds good again

Not really sure its a TRUCK. More like a car really but hey. If the hat fits a bit. A truck by another name. As a Diesel Mechanic of 35 plus years, they were NEVER a truck anyway. In Australia we call em UTEs. Nothing more or less. Ute is for UTILITY VEHICLE - much more apt IMHO. A TRUCK, loosely, carries over 1.5 to 2 metric tons PAYLOAD. The rest are just light vehicles - cars and utes etc. I can live with PICK UP just NOT "TRUCK". It just makes sense - ask SAM KEKOVICH!!! Bloody AUSSIE ICON.............Ford Australia was the first company to produce an Australian Coupe ute, which was released in 1934. This was the result of a 1932 letter from the unnamed wife of a farmer in Australia asking for "a vehicle to go to church in on a Sunday and which can carry our pigs to market on Mondays"

I am hoping for a win. Got back to work on my MK IV 12v with some vicarious moral support through your channel to find out that the piston rings never seated when I rebuilt the engine, so having to start from bare block once again. I was hoping I wouldnt have to, but I do.

Yes Duane, his head up in there is a cool shot. The time lapse with James back had me scratching my head for a few seconds....

Another great video Jared! I continue to love the work that you do!

I'm glad Johnny is back, still waiting for the honda limousine build

Did you say you were swapping out or swamping it out after getting it out of the water? 😅 Either way, I'm sure this is going to be another fun one ! 👍🏼

Awesome truck! Ugly wheels.

30:24 I would like to see how the weight bias changes when you get in the truck. I thought that was why you had the camera on the indicator for the scales. 😅 🎥 ⚖️

My grandfather told me " you quit making mistakes when you reach room temperature". Don't feel bad.

"we"re going to enjoy about 100- 140 extra horsepower".... for about a 100 - 140 feet.

Jared, please stop just trying to add more horsepower to everything all the time! What is it with US car people? All you guys and gals seem to be obsessed with is crazy bhp. Make it handle like a Lotus, and you won't need to worry about loads of power, it will out-corner anything you might come up against on the road. Real racers go round corners.

hey jared i have a few suggestions or maybe fair critics... in my opinion its a shame such a good channel like yours quite a bit "underperforming"...ive seen it goes down and its painful but in the meantime your content also kinda makes me feel i need to put a distance perhaps because its too dense and repetitive... we all knew the cycles all those channels also does that, like Car Throttle with Alex, and when AutoAlex is born, they do the same cycle over and over the difference is they have more "flavor" each series and episode i know this may "pushed" you too hard to perform on any contents but i lost the "fun" factor on each of ur video, and tbh i haven't watched your channel for almost 5-6month... i always wanted to watch your channel but the feeling of "ughh this must be the same thing again" thing always ringing in my head... i think you should take a slack and do a video where its just about fo0ling around and have fun..like uncle tonys garage for example where the old man just yapping all the time but do some fun stuff too your technical tips and do is good for us novice but we also feel the burden seeing you chasing projects to projects with a deadline, tbh makes me feel like im working and my boss puts a deadline on a certain project.. well, i hope you read this.. i will always support your channel .... i kinda "understand" why you parting apart from tavarish, same vibe also seen on his channel and he just have bigger audience thats all, aside from his persona as a youtuber... but in my opinion u need to find more "personality" in ur channel, questionable garage in my eyes always looks like a mere shadown of wrenching everyday... goodluck jared, godspeed.

Pulling a Corvette crank pulley this weekend. loads of fun to be had :) Replacing timing cover, bit leaky. Maybe see ya soon :)

So if cars have souls the issue may be that driver side fender. I love patina, it that fender hurts my eyes and the truck’s soul may be suffering. Maybe pretty her up a bit (faux patina is acceptable psst pssst, scrub pssst) instant pretty. That should make her stand up and show off….or maybe not.

It weighs just a bit less than a 73 firebird. Firebird is about 3800 and change.

And like any Corvette why don't you have independent rear suspension

Nooooo! Salutes in the chat for the departure of the duelley

Temp check. 60F in the UK

You need robby Layton to do a sick paint job on this truck

Whenever i put engines outside, i put them in oil. Cheap synthetic oil. Pop the engine in the bin, pour and rotate it several times and pop the cover over. I've some engine blocks that were out in the mid 90's, still waiting for the right time, no rust on them whatsoever, they look like they've been machined yesterday. Given how cheap it is, there's no point in not doing it.

Why did you sell the dually? You just upgraded to the newer one recently if I recall correctly.

Awesome to see Johnny revvin’ again! Great choice of music, too!

I thought that LS was supposed to go back to J&J along with the coyote? Got a project for the coyote too ?

I love this truck but it would never would be road legal we're i live because of the body alone.

Lol those mufflers were not aluminized they wete probably just high temp silver sprayed... the tubing looks to be aluminized

Also an International truck has never gone so fast before. Very cool!😎

Farm Truck.....FARM TRUCK...Where have I heard that term on a beat up hot rod truck before ???

Not sure if it’s been rebuilt or you were lied to. But that’s a lq4. Lq9 has flat tops. I have many of them. Or maybe that was comment bait… if so, color me fooled lol

I love this magical hobbit mechanic you have with you here he's awesome

I want to see Weld bead locks on the back with drag radials

lol you could 871 blower in there and know one would know well until you start it

Love the old IH. The wheels and tires are "Questionable" in my very humble opinion. They ruin the old farm truck vibe.

Awesome content as always.Thanks for sharing and taking us along

When you said you sold the dually did you mean you sold the gmc denali you had?

Why did you get rid of the dually?!

Liked, shared and commented 🍻🤴🏻🗽 32:11

Did James forget his battle axe in Mordor

So I didn’t see anywhere in the video what water pump you ended up using

those rear wheels need more dish...

it objects to having anything but a 392 in it, lol

Nice glad to see its return

Corn binder👌

Glad to see the old boy back up and running

Maybe if you didnt keep stuffing overrated ls engines in it you might not have to replace engines constantly. Theyre supposed to be so cheap simple and reliable yet people are always having trouble smh. They buy into the internet myths.

Recently purchased a 68 F100. Manual transmission, questionable wiring, questionable brakes, questionable everything. No AC. Is that...yes, yes it is. I smell adventure .

Hihi, i'm on my 6th engine in my 3.0l V6 dCi Renault Vel Satis (the infamous P9X 701), finally forked in the Opel variant... now i'm comfy.

Awesome video Jared, and yes Dwayne, that was an amazing shoot, Jared you should try racing scraplife Lee’s srt 10 viper/hellcat swap truck, it would be very interesting!!!!!

I like turtles 🐢

You’ll probably get the AC free or heavily discounted being a RU-vidr but if you’re paying out of pocket. ECC Auto Shop out of Florida had the best prices I’ve found. 600 bucks for EVERYTHING but the compressor bracket to mount the compressor to the engine and belt. It includes sanden compressor, drier lines all of it but the engine bracket. I love mine and I been telling everyone. It’s half price of vintage air IF you’re paying out of pocket

57/43 weight bias is really good Jared. Plus the weight in total is pretty darn good man.. nice job!

10:14 - Just watching getting the engine out, hurts my back. So that’s what 90% humidity looks like. (Rusty engine block)…

So what water pump did you end up using? Something specialized from Summit?

Wait, you already sold the dually??? Why, Jared? Why? How are you going to haul more project cars back to the shop???

This reminds me so much of my F100. Not quite as modern, but Crown Vic front, Explorer rear axle, Holley Sniper, Vintage Air. Running a mildly hopped up 347 stroker. I love a ratty hot rod truck.

The Brawn championship winning f1 car had a drive shaft going up at an angel the same was as you're trucks, that car went on to win a world championship and beat every f1 car on the track,

Bout damn time...love your channel and enthusiasm...but it seems like so many of the tubers ..stop messing with the projects consistently that brought us all in for filler videos...I get it..things cost...but stay the course...glad to see the core flock vehicles getting more attention

You need an automobile swamp cooler!

Cool Truck, Cool Truck Name, Not Cool Rear Tires. Johnnie Rev is in beast mode

8:23 yea Im not that far north of you outside of Nashville TN , today my garage thermometer was 102F (damn near 39c) and almost 90% relative humidity

Leaving it outside, Not smart.

Saw the "83 minutes later" and my hart sank. I thought something went wrong. Love seeing that truck back.

Your truck sounds great. Your ISF in the weeds hurts the Lexus boy inside me.

Bish Bash Bosh

Great video. Love the content. Hope you keep continuing to grow and be more successful .

I bet this thing handles amazing 🤩

Hoping you do 4 link in the rear, and is that a brick for a house that sits close to the engine???? Regards sören

Definately one of my most favorite build, the frame really needs some rust inhibitor and some paint, and it would be so mint, Absolutely love this truck man

Jared, just a thought to save you some potential wiring gremlins in the future. Not sure if you did it yet or not, but take some small vacuum or small diameter fuel line an slice it down the middle. Then place it around the hole in the firewall to prevent wire abrasion. Just a thought to prevent future issues

Jeez Jared… couldn’t lower the truck a bit to help your buddy reach easier? Poor guy needed a milk crate

LET'S GO!

It feels Amazing. #tshirtidea

Jared remove the incomplete side trim

I love this truck more and more! Good thing James can fit into tight spaces!
