Hey Kevin thanks for shoutout Carbs Unlimited is my family’s business. Glad we were able to help.

I love Internationals like this. Reminds me of my first school bus when I was a kid. Also, our driver probably wished he had the dump feature.

Thank god Mook finally found an open daycare for Kevin. You can hear how much fun he's having with the other kids already. 😁

For a second I thought the little girl was letting us know Kevin's been hiding a pony tail from us this whole time. 😂😂😂😂😭😂😂😂😂

Oh my god, I fucking lost it when you said "Help me Jesus", and then the camera rolled back. That was amazing.

Love how the kid calls you almost bald🤣

You'll be a good dad judging how you speak to the little girl..

The term you're looking for, the opposite of Cab Over Engine, is Conventional. That's probably buried in one of your back files under the title of 'Information that doesn't actually matter unless I'm looking for certain parts'.

"Because you're almost bald!" "Hahahaha....." tapers off into a sob

"Help me, Jesus!" Camera goes flying! That brought a smile to my face!

We love the new assistant: Junkyard Mookette.

You’re a natural ad man 👨 Seriously, impressively natural delivery. Who knew? Can Mook act. You two could take your act on the road!👏🏾

Why aren't you sponsored by O'Reilly's?! You certainly give them enough air time!

That was the most adorable helper you've ever had!

This is a very similar truck to what my grandpa drove on his farm. I would love to buy it but ya know, I'm broke and live more then a thousand miles from you. I hope they go to a good home.

That hair conversation was the perfect segway to cut to a KEEPS promo!

Great video! I loved when the kid showed up and wanted to help you. You may have inspired that kid to be a mechanic. You do amazing work with these old engines. Great work!

6:20 that is sooo sweet of her jeopardizing her school work to help you❤❤

Ya got your hand on the opposite petals when talking about the brake & clutch systems. Hint: (Brake is closest to the gas pedal) 👍

There's 3 people who tells the truth (1) kids (2) mad women (3) drunk people 😂😂😂😂😂😂

I used to drive one of those Loadstars back in the late 60's. LOVED that truck and they still remain my favorite.

I love how ya get the brakes and clutch backwards ya MILLENIAL!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

As mentioned in the previous video. My uncle had an International CO. He also had two conventional Loadstars as will. He was a big fan of International trucks and once he took over the family farm from his brother, he began switching out the trucks. His brother got married and helped run his wife's family farm. 😊❤

I remember seeing these with a slick dual exhaust right out the grilles. Lots of grains grown out here.

I've been watching your videos for a while now and I am totally amazed at how you can get these motors running where they sit with just a spanner and a screwdriver and a shit load of optimism is just awesome, I'm glad to be a subscriber and look forward to seeing more from your channel. Best wishes to you from Scotland :)

You have to love the words from a child. So inquisitively innocent.

I'm not a regular around here, but I am obsessed with the potential of what grain trucks can be for project vehicles! Very cool. Looks like I need to go catch the other

You gotta love the honesty of kids!

I purchased my 67 grain when I was scrapping. Didn't have the parking brake on the floor, but drove great ( you get used to the steering real quick trying to maneuver around city streets). 1000 bucks is a great price, and a wonderful running truck

The old "you only need these 3 things" wisdom I guess is good for someone who knows nothing, but the exact quantities and timing are what you end up having to work

A quick hydraulic clutch blead you can do from the master is fill with fluid, but a hand vacuum pump hose down with a tapered end into the hole in the bottom and pull a vacuum. When you remove the tip it will suck the fluid down into the evacuated lines and good to go. Sometimes takes twice but works. I have yet to try it on the brakes but may work on some of these old crusty systems as well.

Looks like the muffler is almost rotted in half (well, 1/4 and 3/4) but it still does a decent job! Runs pretty dang nice! Good investment at 1K, for somebody with a love of old rigs and need of a dump-truck.

Kevin and Mook are natural ad persons. Very believable!!!

I just heard of an old IH truck like this getting shredded, so it's very refreshing to see one being brought back to life.

The game Snowrunner has this exact truck and they call it a International Harvester 1700. Same grill and everything except the one in the game is a pick up truck. I learned something new from this and live the content and I've been subbed for a little while! ❤

We at one time had an old Load Star on the hay farm. It WAS Bullet Proof ! One of the BEST Trucks on the Farm.

You never fail to impress me with these revivals! What a cool looking truck 😀

I've learned more about carburetors on this channel than anywhere else. Thanks!

Great Coverage On The Old ‘64 International Loadstar Dump Truck, Very Educational.. Keep Up The Amazing Work!!

Loved the dirtdobber kick! Good job reviving that old dump truck! I can’t believe it was running off the tank gas.

I loved when he just casually exlaims "it's a 1964!" while fondling with the points. It's almost as if he is in a cartoon or something

Wow even the hydraulics for the dump bed work that is impressive Kevin nice to see a fully functional truck brakes and clutch next @Junkyard Digs

On the next episode Kevin finds a dwell meter and learns how to use it! That truck is exactly like the '69 model I had but mine had air brakes and still had it's 4 barrel, a Carter AFB if I remember correctly.

Grind ‘em til you find ‘em! Thanks Kevin! Fun way to start the day!

Loving these old truck revivals! That truck was even older than me!👍 😉

Love seeing these old trucks run and drive!

My cousin has 4 of these that he uses regularlly for when hes harvesting wheat, oats, corn and such. Pretty cool trucks.

The thing sounds pretty good! Def a good restore project! Nice work man!

Love watching you getting them running

❤️ these videos! Anyone have an old truck in East Tennessee let this poor bastard know!

I just found my left ear bud I was missing for a week so happy to have you junkyard diggs

That engine runs really well very nice to see this old truck running nice work Kevin @Junkyard Digs

Great video glad you posted keep them coming thanks

Man, lot of memories working with my dad farming.

Wow, this brings back memories. Spent many miles and hours in one of those back in the 70's. Fun to drive, well not so much through Los Angeles.....

man it runs nice, it has MOOK written all over it, you should buy it and give it to her, I could see her driving it, those old grain trucks are truly a hecker's truck

*bursts into flames* FINALLY!

Yes more videos!!!!! Y’all the best RU-vid channel!

Love these trucks so much, going to have to do a revival on my own one soon, With the added complication of it being in the USA while I'm not.....

Well that went easy for you. Glad it wasn't one that gave you a lot of issues. Thanks Kevin. Have a great weekend

I bought a 67 1800 today! Awesome series. Love from Lincoln County tn!

Bruh your vids are amazing I love seeing old cars and trucks coming back to life 😃

Nice to view, I do miss driving our Old International...... We saved one, but when loaned out, over loaded, low tire pressure, yep, turn over..... would be fun to have that old International..

God dam i love this truck, thanks kevin for getting another classic going

That dump truck do be working great! Keep up the great work!

I have that same truck (almost) 1955 GMC 350 with a Hydramatic that was parked 30 years. Got it running in a few hours.

Kevin, as you already know the points do a ground to the distributor base and sometimes it gets really dirty and whatnot so you take them out and clean where they bolt down. First words in electrical repair is grounds grounds grounds. Something like steel wool to shine both the distributor and points so when they are in, they make a good contact and ground to the distributor. I had a really hard one and used my jumper cables to grab the base of the distributor and back to the ground on the battery as it can't get more grounded than that. It fired right up and when you removed the jumpers it would either die or run so bad it wanted to. You have to have good grounds on points, condenser, and the distributor itself. All the oils and dirty corrosion keep it from running. Its a lot more professional if you just yard them out and get the system to ground well and get a good spark right away.... Kevin, I apologize, I have OCD really bad and just want so bad to help you look your best. I don't know why but the international which like all AMC stuff was peoples parts an pieces cause they were on the chopping block and had to say where and how ever they could. Their grounding system was a f... joke and I would just tap a ground wire right to the side of their distribitors and to a good ground and make sure it was always doing its job. Come spring when we needed those rigs, we through fuel down their throat, and check the grounds good. Once happy they would spin over a max of three turns and be running strong.

Uncle had a small dump truck like this one . Drove the doors off that truck . Great running truck.

Oh man, does anyone else love the sound of this starter when it is cranking? It’s great!

That's actually a million mile odometer and she's already over16k. Still quite low miles. We had a 1966 Loadstar 1600 on our wheat farm. I loved driving that thing! Wish I lived closer and had the cash. I'd buy that baby.

A handsome sight to see, I love these videos, they help me relax

LMAO “ help me Jesus”, (crunch) camera goes flying

been waiting for this, I just started watching this and I bet it WILL fire up, old trucks in general are just damn near impossible to kill

Love to see junk yard moo messing with them I think she wonderful

Those ol IH trucks just don't quit lol

Sweet videos! My dad drove one of those for years loading it with over 7 cords of firewood at time!

Thanks for the update on current and I love your videos keep up the great work

Enjoyed the video Kevin ,and your little helper had you figured out 😂😂😂

Great Trucks!

Don't you love how farmer tech from the 60's can be fixed far easier than hi-tech from today?

That thing is so so cool!!!!! that has to be the coolest front end on a truck like that I have seen

well Kevin, you do a amazing job getting these vehicles to run. you know your stuff for sure. thanks for posting. wheres mook

That looks like the "I hate manure!" truck in Back to the Future. Good job!

love the old farm trucks

Great job!

Cool revival. Great tutorial information. Did the end of that vacuum hose you snipped off, go down the carb??

Great running that lil International

Cool old trucks man!

Great revival buddy! I would definitely buy that truck if I lived in Iowa! LOL Thanx Kevin! :D

Hopefully, we can see more of the COE running!

Love the old school oil cap, for the distributor bushings! That should be the small cap Gm-points, previous to the big Honkin cap HEI. BTW them old 4 pin actual HEI module, are small and cheap, and can be wired to late 70 Ford Duraspark. Heatsink the module, hide it if need be. And it lights off almost as good as MSD. Providing you have good wiring, wires, cap, rotor and plugs. Used the GM module with a Ford TFI coil for years on Propane, and LPG is tougher to light off. All 12V-no resistor needed.

Live for these videos! Inspired me to get my first project car with zero weight reduction so she’s hefty

I still think that cab over would make an interesting motorhome project.

Good job I learned how to drive and one of those International trucks keep up the good work

Great stuff 👏 👍 👌

"Okay, let's see if we have spark!" *casually sets a fire on the alternator* "Finally!" 😂😂

aww those old Cornbinders do run good when they run

Awesome brother

The Great Dump-kin! Nice 😎
