We feel like this is one of the best "Will It Run" videos we've ever been apart of! If you guys agree, liking and sharing this video helps us reach a larger audience. Lets hit a million views and take this truck to the next level!!
I was thinking about that as well. I can't think of one that's better than this. In the first half of the show, the only thing running was the Bush family. It looked like something out of a third world country, like you're stuck with what you get so you make the best of it. I never thought you folks could turn it around like that. You have all my respect. I thought that was destined to be a boat Mooring
Just recently come across your channel, it blesses me as a Christian to see a family all pulling together in harmony. Also I love watching you rescue all of these beautiful old vehicles. I rather wish I lived near you because I would love to be involved.
Brother, you grow where you’re planted and God is the one that planted you there. Maybe you can talk it over with God to where you can be your own version of this where you’re at. Just a thought our Lord truly does work in the mysterious ways. God bless ✌️
I have to agree with you. Nevermind the seized cam or the lifters or the rockers or the pushrods, the stinking thing had compression! And with the paint its now a craigslist rebuild!
I think all your"praise God",exhaultations got you over the hump ! Truly miraculous ressurection of that old FE. The bed on it looks to be GM. It's got to go !
This comment got me through the entire video. The way comments are visible now. I'm super impressed you saved this truck. Absolutely love the wheels. This is something my buddy and I would've done 25yrs ago. The big money garages are neat to watch. But I could completely resemble the steps y'all took to get this one going. Nicely done.
I’ve seen some rusty engines in my 7 years of rebuilding engines but this definitely takes the top. You guys definitely have more faith than me that’s for sure, I would’ve given up long ago.
Gentleman That was the most courageous engine rebuild I have ever witnessed, When I first saw what you were working with I thought that you guys were crazy,but as you continued I hoped that you would be able to get that crazy rusted motor running again, congratulations on a job well done.
That is absolutely amazing. I looked at that motor and never would think you could make it run again. You guys are absolutely amazing mechanics and you inspire others to do what you guys do
That is simply amazing! I’ve never seen an engine that was in a vehicle be in that bad of shape. To get it to run is the most incredible thing I’ve by far on any RU-vid channel. My hat’s off to you!! Enjoy all your content. God bless you all!
Bless you for showing us again what faith and persistence can achieve. Old trucks don't really die, they just rest until guys like you come by and give them some loving care
Even the most broken, rusted up, and abandoned things and people can be saved with hard work and patience. So many would have given up. Thanks for sharing ❤️
I can't believe how much I was cheering for an old Ford pickup to run again (and I'm a Mopar guy)! Well done guys - nice work. Love how these videos are a metaphor for life - don't give up even on what appear to be the most lost of causes!
I kept saying, "surely they'll quit now". "OK, NOW they'll be done" and you kept going, blew me away. You guys are a determined relentless duo!!! Hopefully the devil says the same thing about you when he throws a wrench in your plans. God bless you, my brothers.
WOW! I'm speechless! AMAZING! I have NEVER seen an engine that far gone, come back to life as well as it did, it doesn't even smoke! WELL DONE! I agree, the best one yet on U-tube!
I am 61 years old and have my Grandpa’s 65 Ford that is exactly like this one. I thought mine might be too far gone but after seeing this I think it will be a little easier to fix Mine ran about 8 years ago and has been sitting in a shed since You guys got me anxious to see what it will do Thank you for the great video
I'm totally blown away, I wouldn't have even attempted to make something like what you started with, and think it would ever run again. You guys definitely have faith. That should have never ran again. Amazing Grace, that's for sure. Amazing.😇
In locomotive workshop this engine would have been placed in a bath of warm high-boiling point liquid paraffin oil (kerosene) with a temperature of about 100 degrees Celsius. For a period about two days. The hot oil makes the metals slowly expand and the kerosene - being a penetrant - penetrates all the engine's moving parts. The boiling point of high-boiling point liquid paraffin is 152 degrees Celsius. Great video!!
I once had a volvo145 wagon, I installed a high performance head a guy sold me that was sitting in a barn,I lapped in the valves, and everything looked good- I drove the car 2 miles,and it started skipping,I drove it home. And found a valve spring had broken,at first glance,it was just a fluke( I thought) luckily the valve didn't have the keepers unload and drop into the cylinder! I replaced it. And continued. Driving it easy, came to the first stop sign and think! It began skipping again,once again it was a broken valve spring! Under the magnifying glass, the valve springs were pitted with rust,enough to,after running for a while would break. I replaced them all after that,shortly after spun a rod bearing, great lesson to me- great experience also! Keep up the fine videos! Very well done
I Love the Process and how you show so much of the detail! like how at 1 hour and 7 minutes you left in the whole scene of filling up the temporary gas tank. Most channels would edit that out but it was such a special moment that the truck was about to start for the first time in so long that i think it really adds to the feel of the channel!
I’m sure many have said what I’m about to say. What I wouldn’t do to have spent time with my dad fixing things. He passed away many years ago. What a treasure this show is. Thanks for sharing the blessing.
I love watching your channel it inspired me to keep trying new things with my disability. I love Jesus with all my heart when watching dad , son , daughter work together but pray together that's what I can say it's called the perfect love.
Man! You two must be offspring of the patron saint of positive thinking! This content should be required viewing for all Americans. Noting ever gets done by people with negative attitudes.
Gotta hand it to you guys for not giving up on this gal. The Lord definitely was with y'all, granting energy and wisdom to not just light a gassy rag and walk off. Dragonfire is the solution I would've went for, I think. Thanks for sharing this crazy journey as always.
Enjoyed the journey from when you pulled this truck out of the ground, to cleaning up the nest under the hood, to unraveling the engine through its rebuild and finally getting it started.
My lord what a work and effort have you guys put in this whole revival. You guys really do alot for your audience. Fantastic work! Thank you all for the great video's!
They're are so many of these that are being found and restored so generations that come after us can enjoy them. Machines built at their finest. Amazon car hop trays.
The Dad has a really good feel for how much torque to apply and when. You can see the control and calculations he is doing based on the feedback. That's experience and control right there. It is the best way to avoid making things worse.
I just came across your channel today. I love it. I have no doubt that a lot of the old engines will run. Another RU-vid channel Fabrats found a boat that has been sunk for over thirty years. They pulled it from one of the lakes from the reservoir of lake Powell or lake Mead. The boat was in tact and in good shape for being sunk for thirty years. They pulled the motor and went all through it and managed to get it running. When they put it in the water it preformed like new. They found the original owner and gave it back to them. Just like the videos of yours I’ve been watching, great content. Never give up on what you are doing. If you can think it or dream it you can make it by not giving up and following thru to make the dream and achieve the goal. Great video. God bless.
Lance, Wyatt, and Christian, I truly believe in this old Ford was meant to run again. I'm so glad that God blessed you with this, and it's running again. Thank you for the video, and have a great week ✌️ 👋
Praise god this video was the best one ever you to never gave up and the both of you made it happen im proud too be one of your subscribers keep the videos coming amen 🙏🏿
Wow. I love this kind of restoration. Other channels just replace parts in the name of restoration. Keeping the vintage look and originality is the thing i like.
This was truly one of your best videos , I loved it. I wouldn’t change a thing on the truck but clean it and get it road worth. The GM bed looks great on that truck. You guys deserve a million thumbs up. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍✌️😎👍
DEFINITELY the Lazarus engine!!! I’ll lay odds the guy putting that engine together 58 years ago in the no doubt long gone Ford factory, would never have dreamed it would be going through today, what you champions of perseverance are putting it through…trying to resurrect it from a grave he’d never have thought of!! You guys are my heroes!! No one else would have put that much effort into it! 👍🏻👊🏻❤️
Thank you all again for constantly tying these old rigs back to salvation and what God has done for us! I really appreciate your constant glorification of Him! You all keep it up!
That was the most in depth will it run ever guys, I really enjoyed the dedication and the use of as many factory parts as possible. This will probably be one of my favorite episodes, I hope to see more like this. Thanks for taking my mind off all the craziness. God Bless.
I am so glad that I have fond your videos. I am happy to see you are Christians like me . I have great memories of me and my father working on cars or just building or just fixing things with him .He is the one who taught me how to work with my hands and never give up when things got rough .
because it needed choke to run probably, I was thinking the same thing. This is why I bought a cheap smoke machine/ leak detector for 100 bucks on ebay.
Well done guys. I love those old Fords. I love your channel for a few reasons but mainly because your not afraid to give God the Glory. God bless you both.
God bless y’all what a great job making that truck run again.Hope your not done fixing on that truck, maybe do a interior clean up episode and exterior wash down
Guys, this was the most rewarding restoration video I have ever watched. I almost cried when you pulled out the spray cans and the final result was phenomenal. Praise God, that you didn't know when to stop. I hope that you spend some more time and bring that truck back to life completely, even with a new paint job. Thanks so much for not giving up
I too am amazed. I love that you just did what most of us would considered impossible, but I am So proud that you gave God the Glory for your success. I look forward to all of your videos.
Lance, I have just watched this one again. It is indeed one of your best efforts. I loved this old girl from the get go You all are living your testimony daily by keeping your Faith and continuing to Praise God and give Him the glory for all of your success. Amen.
Epic resurrection. From the start I was saying there was no way that would run. You proved that you are that damn good to have pulled it off. You have earned our respect and admiration. Salud 🍻
The fact that truck ran again doesn't surprise me America was known for quality products and with god over the earth anything is possible. The perseverance of both of you as a team is amazing. Great job:)
I think you have proven that if the block isn't cracked or cylinders too far gone it can be made to run again. The only limiting factor is how much time and money you're willing to spend bringing back to life. Good job guys! I have a soft spot for those old Ford pick ups so seeing one brought back from the dead makes my day. One request, get rid of that GMC bed ASAP.
Thank you two so much. Never ending determination without all the fussing and cussing. Just what our hearts and minds needed. To God be all the glory. 🙏🏽❤️
Much respect to y’all for taking on that challenge! There ain’t no way I would have even began to take that engine apart! It would have been in the scrap yard! But do you fellas even think about a purchase of a wrecker / tow truck of larger size?
I just LOVE how you guys are so intentional with what you guys do. Even though this video may have been about reviving a car, it brought an awaking to me. " sometime what may people call dead is only asleep." I take that word with me! Thank you guys for letting yourself be use bh God.
That's a "DuPont" overhaul. Throw whatever parts you have on it, spray some paint on it and call it done. You guys did an exceptional job getting that one to run again. Congrats to you both! Is that an old Chevy Cameo bed? If it is and is not in too bad a shape, it's probably worth a couple of pennies.
Memories. June 1994 bought a blue/white 1982 F150 in Mesquite TX for two grand with a sucked valve. Swapped the 351 Windsor with some rebuilt east Dallas heads, made it all 'purty' like you guys, ran great, but fouled the plugs from ring wear very shortly. Took my losses & traded it.
Wow! I can't believe you could make that run again. I didn't think anything like that was even possible. . Thanks most for your testimony - so refreshing!
