Turbo Diesel First Gen CUMMINS Makeover 

This is like the 130 thousand dollar truck of today. Top of the line of its time.

I would daily drive the hell out of this. Turning every head at the mall. This has got the detail geek written all over it

jump start is common in sleeper cabs and RV's that have a separate battery setup to run lights, heaters, tv's and charge phones etc. But if you kill your main starting battery you can use your Sleeper batteries to "Jump" your main starting battery.

I would love to have that truck, so bad ass! Like they say, they don't make em like they used to.

Try using "Rust Cutter" or "Coreseal" on the rust. It turns it into black color chemically , seizing the rust, then prime and top coat it with spray paint.

I love this rig. You'd be surprised how well that carpet will come up with a proper deep clean. Take it out, give it a go over with the pressure washer and soap, then degreaser and a steam vacuum.

This baby needs a complete restoration! She is beautiful

Great work, truck is looking beautiful. looking forward to more fixes and upgrades!

I love that first gen Cummins sound. Always look forward to the next videos in this series.

Dad goes quit yelling 😂

I hope you get your hands on a bunch of money, and renovate the hole truck! I subscribed to this channel just for that truck! 😁

This truck is so damn cool. Perfect truck for hot shot hauling. Aint gotta hit no motel /hotel if you on a long one. I bet this truck will bring some damn good money to the right man

Big improvement. Bet a hand held steam cleaner would go even farther.

Just a tip for next time youre cleaning leather or vinyl like that you can use a drill with a brush attatchment. Me and my Dad used to do it to clean mold off of boat seats. Love the truck tho!

Following from Long Island, new Sub.

Dream truck for sure, over all new Cummins

That truck needs a Big Horn interior. 😎🤩

Awesome rig. Please continue showing videos content on this truck.

Oh man how I would like to own that rig over here in the uk its sounds and looks amazing

Looks awesome dude, amazing how much this has cleaned up/how well it's running!

that truck has a nice deep sound with the stacks on it

You and your dad really know your stuff, man. Super impressive.

The old 93 Ram 3500 looks pretty good. A little bit of boffin to the paint, paint the tailgate. Fix a tiny bit of rusty issue above those rear doors and it's gonna look awesome. It's a nice look and truck. And very rare. You don't see a lot of those rams with a sleeper conversion. It's actually kind of cool

Factory voltage regulator is under the driver side fender. It's in the PCM.

Sweet truck! I would drive that over a new one any day!

What a wicked truck with an engine that was built to last!

Shit man, this thing is so sick. Like a previous commenter said; needs a full resto. Such a rare find. Love these damn diesels.

She purrs Cummins.👍💯thanks for sharing..👌👌

French watcher here , Still in love with this f*cking truck ! can't wait to see the next video.

I love this truck

1 wire is the only way to go on the alternator. I did it on one of mine and forgot I had a problem! What a mess that driver's fender is! I'm hooked!

Now you got the formula dude! 21 minutes is such a good length! Great work!

Love the truck, should have pulled out the seats and ran the pressure washer on them and even on the carpet it’s a faster and cleaner wash! Excellent work though! And like your dad said in the video “you don’t have to yell” 😅😅

There was only like 2 companies that took long bed ext cab 1st and 2nd gen dodge trucks and made them into 4 door trucks and sold em that way from what I can find. I'd love to have one of each in good shape.

What a transformation so far!!! Very cool

we have my late dads 5500 2010 dodge ram tradesman, but its sat dead with it just not starting again, could be the alternator since the batteries are basically new, it was also a highway hauler before my dad got it at 444k miles, no def fluid at least!

My dad got his dads first gen and it has a turbo and its been sitting since 2009 and it fires right up and he’s gonna rebuild its gonna be so cool

nice truck❤ greetings from Lithuania 🇱🇹🙂👍

I'm a Ford guy, but I have a Cummins in my combine. I love my 7.3 power stroke ! But this ole gal your bringing back to life is AWESOME!! KEEP US POSTED! thanks, enjoy your video, and I'm subbed! Be safe fellas, merry Christmas to y'all! 👍

Absutely love this truck, jealous as hell. ❤❤

Bag it on big boys, that truck is 👌

Love the truck and the series.

That's worth keeping , make sure rest of all the suspension is good ,

Interior is the best a new look and keep the bed add a tv and its a home on wheels in the end thats all we really need

really badass truck

She is looking so good. Looking forward for more videos fixing her😊

The old dodge cummins is coming right along get all that wiring repaired

Your truck is a beauty

Simple green and a magic eraser will make that paint look like new.

I love that truck. Was bidding on a Ford F600 with a pick up box on it last weekend but it got out of reach

didnt think my day could get any better. Then i see you upload a new video

Best truck on RU-vid! Keep up the great videos 🫡👌🏼

Gotta love an old diesel

I could see my self driving that as it is

totally awesome mixed 50,50 and magic eraser done son

awesome truck man. How about a steam vacuum cleaner to sterilize and get that grime out of the interior. she's a jewel !!

Nice find.

make A NEW VIDEO WITH THIS TRUCK its my favorite process been here since day 1 love this truck

I love that truck you did such a good job to it keep up the good work keep upgrading I love a old school Cummins

That thing is rad 🤙🏽

Looks beautiful

Great job. The wheel covers did the trick.

Good job 👍 looking forward to the next episode!!

dude this truck is so sick im at a cdjr dealer and we like it

Привет из России. Завидую тебе белой завистью. Хорошая машина.

This truck is a gem!! 💎 brought it back to life brother that thing is awesome 👏🏽

Horns are nice and cheap there on the fender nice and easy

Waiting to see update of this thing

Looking nice, fellas!

The relays that the "jumpstart" button activate look like the grid heater relays. They are activated by ground closing the circuit to allow power to cross and heat the grid. When the PCM ground would go out on the second gens you just ran a wire from battery ground to switch and switch to the relay. Once the button is pushed the circuit is closed. Look up grid heater relays and you'll see what i mean.

I would have vacuumed (dry cleaned) it first before I did any scrubbing. But you have made a good improvement.

Second u cranked that ol girl up all I heard was MERICA😂😂😂😂

she's comin' around. Look forward to these vids. Keep up the good work.

Wonderful "semi" truck🤗

One wire alternators are the way to go from what I have heard. The PCM has the voltage regulator built in it. I think the TPS on the autos feeds into it, maybe just for the overdrive. It may have something to do with the AC too. That VR you found on the passenger side was not original. Lots of info out there. CutterupRob has a good video on how to convert your alternator into a 1 wire. I'm not on telescope.

Man I love that truck

Per one gallon of spray bottle three tablespoons of soap, two cups of bleach, rest of gallon ,water Leave for 30min , then pressure wash .would have come out perfect. I have a house cleaning business, that's how I clean old houses and it works wonders

before and after on the back of the seats was insane.

this is a truck that's gonna give back all the care you've put into her and then some

This thing is sick. I would have blacked all the chrome out.! Thats just me lol

I still want that Truck 💯 old cowboy papa special old son 💯🔥

my neighbor has a truck just like yours hes kept up on it though your exterior is nicer then his but his interior is so nice

Loving this series. Keep it up!

That thing is so cool!

Amazing truck and everything i need more videos of this truck, congratulations.

Looks great already, trucks (utes) in aus are very popular, but a good deal smaller! Great work, respect from Brisbane, Australia.

I WANT THIS TRUCK

Looking good ❤❤. Cool truck

Quite the turn around on the looks. Wash did a good job. Seats come back pretty decent too. But, still could use a solid steam clean on the interior. Even still, would drive that truck in a heartbeat. Throw a gooseneck on her and run 'er down the highway with a big frickin smile on my face. Waylon on the deck, and a hound on the seat cover. Would have gone with sandblasting the wheels and a shot of ardent silver though. Loving this build, and still believe it was a horse hauler. Big comfy seats meant for the long drives.

That is my dream truck right there!!

Great job Devon and Dad! Would not have known these were caps on the wheels without a close look.

Good job on it. That’s a bad ass truck

Cool ride

👍👍.. gotta love a little "lot lizard juice"... Or not🤔...but anyway 👍👊

Is there a specific name for these types of rigs? I had the idea to do something like this with a modern quad cab and then come find out last year that they've been doin it since *_way_* back. They sure are cool! Especially with a Cummins!

Damn what a beauty 👍👍👍

Damn I like that truck 👊🏾👍🏾

Some H4 Amazon conversion headlight bulbs are cheap, better lighting, and not hideous like the led bulbs that burn out every month.

Man that back seat bed looks fantastic after you cleaned it. It's ready for..... You'll need a clean rag to wipe it down again..and yourself when you're finished.

Nothing like the sound of an old 12 valve
