More of our videos: ru-vid.comvideos Thanks for watching!

я в шоке ему цены нету,золотые руки восстановил легенду!!!!

Отличная работа. Великий автомобиль, герой войны. Заслужил славу и уважение водителей Красной Армии.

A pure pleasure watching a real mechanic work! That era engine was a work horse.Very nice job Sir!

Those Hercules engines are impressive. They were designed to be rebuilt and last forever. Not like the throwaway junk car and truck manufacturers build nowadays. You have some neat old trucks.

I love those L-Head sixes! Glad to see one come back to life.

Well,aside from your obvious talent as a mechanic, you make a beautifully paced video as well.I loved it. Keep making them! Thanks.

I liked that you didn't talk . Excellent camera placement and captions took care of that. Good stuff

That was a fantastic restoration. A beautiful old engine given new life. I liked the simple yellow paint job. It wasn't a custom job, yet it stands out and you didn't mind it getting oily for the start up, brilliant. Thankyou for sharing your expertise. 👍

A professional job on both the engine and video. Thanks; and thanks for the quality of the comments

Cool video. My grandfather drove one those old macks logging after ww2. That was a bonus to see here

love seeing the old girls come back to life. great work :)

Knothing but a labor of love rescue and prevention and actually still use it is great and I thank you for letting her.go to someone else that know how to love and respect the war machines .I first seen your line up years ago and hadn't a clue Studebaker even made anything like that. For the service .Thank you for sharing your love with us God Bless you and yours

Done this before? Hands down you just made #1 on my list of the best videos I have seen on youtube. You make it look easy & provide just the right amount of information. Awesome job! Thanks for sharing the video.

If only America was run this way. Built to last, and if broken, able to be fixed back by the strong hands and ingenuity of men with skills and know how. Brilliant video!

That was fascinating to watch. Love that it was just the sound of the work and the occasional text.

Brilliant 70yr old and still living I bet it could tell you some stories over it's life if only the old girl could talk Great job just hope someone in 70yrs time keeps her going so she has more story's to tell how many modern FORDs GMCs CHEVYs TOYOTAs etc will still be running in 70yrs Keep the good work !

I have enjoyed your video series on this Studebaker US6. I referred this video to a friend of mine who is originally from Alaska. I hope that he watched some of them. I assume that these trucks were surplus from the ALCAN highway construction during WWII. I am so glad that you are rescuing these trucks. My paternal grandfather was an Aviation Machinists Mate II in the US Navy right after WW I (One.) He taught my father a lot of mechanic skills growing up in The Great Depression. My father used these skills to work as a mechanics assistant on a pipeline laying crew in the 1948-1950. They had to maintain a lot of surplus heavy trucks, bulldozers, and other heavy equipment that the crews used. I learned a lot from my father growing up and have restored a lot of vehicles through the years. My father always talked about restoring a Studebaker US6 but we never found one to restore. I have no doubt that we could have done it. His 1959 Studebaker Lark VI and my 1963 Studebaker GT Hawk VIII seem like toys compared to these Studebaker US6 trucks. Thanks again for the videos.

This was fun ! It was like I was there doing the work with my own two hands , I'd LOVE to have that truck , and I really like that shade of blue , too . Thanks for sharing !

Es ist das mindeste was mann für diese trucks tuhen kann und das beste ich ewundere solche arbeit wirklich. MAN MÜSSTE SICH MEHR FÜR SOWAS EINSETZEN!!!!

Fantastic, classics are always more fun to own!

Now, that was interesting. Thanks for posting.

Love the audio,pronto and ginger and the mud. I would watch all your videos. Great work, never stop!

Never seen a front main seal like that one! Loved your video, thanks for posting.

The engine construction reminds me of a lot on the way a Ford model A engine goes together. Converted mine in insert bearings added adjustable valves like that. Very nice sounding engine

Excelent video. Thank you for sharing this instructive piece with Studebaker funs.

Nice Video!! I love your endless collection of these old road warriors. In 1959, I lived 1/2 mile from the drive-in theater where a group of families left from Redford Michigan to Alaska...they were called the '59ers. I remember there being 2 of that style truck in the caravan. I've often wondered if they made it (the trucks), that's a pretty long haul at 35 m.p.h. 😂

absolute beast. that engine sound is so good. mucho satisfecho

No bullshit, only great work and satisfying machine noises. Keep up the good work :) Cheers

Impressive work Sir! Very impressive. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for this. I enjoyed it immensely. You seemed to know what you are doing!

Lots of great videos here. Thanks! There's much to learn about the oldies and it's good to see someone working on them.

Only in America...Loved this mans work ...so amazing Great work and thanks for posting AlbertaDave

Awesome!! Glade you cold bring it back.

this video deserves Oscar

WOW that Clutch as smoked by pervious owner , I m thinking the over size tires and the Back Woods overloading and was never adjusted is a large part of why it failed , But now You are working to save the old beast I hope will all go well .

I enjoy watching videos like yours. it would be even better if you explained roughly what you were doing as you disassembled and reassembled it. like your explanation of why you guys still have so many ww2 truck's. have a great day!

Amazing video with real sound, regards!!!

That is a VERY nice Mack! I worked for them for 30 years. Thanks for the nice video

Thanks for sharing this with us. I think I'll hit the replay button.

Back in the day we'd say the 6 cyl. firing order was "too young, too old, just right" Thanks for a great job.

Looks like fun! But also a lot of work. Great video!

I've never taken apart a flathead before, thanks for the education !

Awesome! A Road Warrior comes back to Life! I like it!

Very Fun ! Regards from Anchorage and thanks for posting !

un artiste belle réalisation merci du partage du travail et de la patience résultat du succès

My grandfather was a heavy equipment and truck mechanic , he worked on the Canadian section of the Alcan Hwy . I'm quite certain he would have had his his hands into things similar to this .

Nice first crank! I love old Iron!

Flatheads and the sounds they produce

loved seeing the Mack truck. Thanks

Great job!!❤

I cant believe how quiet this engine sounds with just a manifold on,....& the growl when you crack the throttle.....I want one.....

WOW!! Neat video to watch. Engine sure does sound good. Love your collection of trucks, thanks for sharing!

So how does it feel to bring so much pleasure to all your viewers??? Very well done.. You do know that there is a heck of a lot of envy out there!!!1 Thanks for the effort...Peace and fair winds to you sir...

Cool vid. almost relaxing to watch. nice t see American iron brought back to life. thanks for sharing,

My father went through the war. Drove this the "Studebaker". Him - imagine - personally, my dad once had a chance to drive this Studer briefly in Odessa. Squeaky clean, stocked to the last key on the new tires. On the quay of the port there was a huge press that turned this "Studebaker" tapered in a can. Now. I his father, a former soldier BELIEVE. And I will carry his memory his grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Let them know the TRUTH not only from the history books.

Nice job!

think its pretty bad ass your restoring it. one of the coolest projects i've seen.

Very Neat.

Nicely done!

Thanks. Interesting and easy to understand. Good work.

Great job.the truck looks like she has led a hard life. Can't wait to se more.

purrs like a kitten nice job

the studebaker museum in south bend, indiana is a really good place to visit, lots to see.

Great video.....You are very talented...... nice to see you saving the old iron part of Alaska's history can't wait for the next video:)

Excellent video thank you for sharing

Great video! Many thanks!

Great video!! really enjoyed it!

Yeah those flex hone brushes are awesome, any back yard mechanic can use em. Your cat looks a whole bunch like mine LOL. Nice video thanks for sharing. BTW You totally screw up your water injection timing by not timing the water pump all you have to do is stick on finger in your ear and the other to the coil and the engine will tell you when it's timed LOL

thanx for a beautifull vid of your cool place and work !!

Good job and good film!

Awesome video. I love studebaker stuff I have a 48 champion in progress.

te felicito por tu dedicacion en el Studebaker y que lo disfrutes por muchos años

You are a very lucky guy to have those wonderful trucks. My idea of heaven. Also you're lucky to have companies that can reline clutch driven plates. Also you have a good spares supply as well !

Nice! Good history
