1950 Chevy 3100 FIRST START in 35+ years! Will it run? *RunAway*

The truck will not be listed quite yet, apparently the person we bought it from have us the wrong title. We are getting that sorted. Once we get the correct title we will have the truck up on eBay and make another video about it.

OMG This is my favorite type of pickup truck😍 please keep it original. No hotroding or lowriding.

Nah. Air ride on smoothies

[@robertjean659]

Brings back memories of my old 51 Chevy pickup, wish I never sold it.

[@danbolton3180]

A 1951 GMC was recently sold in our town, asking price $16,500. Unfortunately they painted over rust to get it gone.

[@skullcapgarage920]

I like how u went to points first!

[@NipkowDisk]

Absolutely LOVE these old Advance Design pickups; I learned to drive in a '49 Chev 1/2-ton with the optional four-speed. I like telling people that I learned to drive in a vehicle with FOUR pedals... they rarely guess the fourth one, the starter pedal :)

[@007380]

Engine sounds good. Looks like a nice project.

[@LeftForDeadGarage]

I like that truck!! Good video btw.

[@RearEngineShop]

Awesome truck! 👍

[@charlesjenkins5087]

I am working on about the same motor right now in a 50 as well. Just waiting on a starter rebuild. Mine was toast. Sure hope mine purrs like that one does.

[@olsonjamie]

Awesome I have a 1950 3100 also I’m in MN paid 4500 for it in excellent shape!

[@georgepavich8266]

Been working on bombs "old chevys all my life this was fun to watch

[@wyattenright3006]

My Great-Grandmother has two of these on her property + a 1940's Volkswagen

[@resurrectionauto5714]

Ooft! Tell me where and I’ll come get em! 😁

[@OldCarAlley]

If those wire mesh filters are properly maintained there ok. The wire mesh needs to be oiled well, to catch the dust and dirt.... altho paper filters do filter better and are way less messy. Super solid truck, well worth a restoration or customizing.

[@resurrectionauto5714]

Thanks for the info! Glad to learn something new every day especially from our viewers!

[@ImTHATguy...]

Now THAT'S how you blow the cobwebs out 😂 I've never heard an old 6 rev that high before. Lol.

[@roadmaster92]

I'm watching you trying to start an old Chevy truck.It will start better if you pull the plugs and shoot some marvel oil down the spark plugs holes.it will turn better.

[@rickconway6986]

I want one baaaaddddd!

[@AndrewHCann]

Excellent old General Motors truck and motor sounds low mileage on to not bad shape overall for sure !

[@OldCarAlley]

I have a 1960 Impala two piece drive shaft, but I'm in the Detroit area. I "think" it's a Powerglide shaft.... the front part is different length depending on the transmission used. I could ship it, but I bet shipping would be more than what a driveshaft is worth..... though I would give you the driveshaft free, if you want to drive to the Detroit area.... but no guarantee on it being a Powerglide front shaft....

[@kitt7219]

TY guys.

[@skatesneakerlover]

21:33 - BRILLIANT!!! That's the only way to get all the rubbish out, let it rev its own guts out at full revs. Hopefully got that treatment every day of its life.

[@resurrectionauto5714]

😂 that’s one way to think about it!

[@merlepatterson]

Jumper cables are a weak source for starting current.

[@resurrectionauto5714]

I agree, but the actual cables on the truck were in poor shape so it got the ole jumper cable treatment haha. Thanks for watching

[@merlepatterson]

@@resurrectionauto5714 No biggie. Just posing a PSA for the audience. Meant no insult.

[@1978ranger]

Pretty truck

[@resurrectionauto5714]

I agree

[@davidconley3610]

I need a left rear fender if you end up with a extra!

[@charlesjenkins5087]

The horn works.!! LOL

[@user-bk3gu3gv5j]

make sure you get some oil to the top

[@Ryanfantana]

Take off the valve cover and see if the rockers are oiling, easy to take off the rocker shaft and clean it up if they are not. Those old stove bolts are almost indestructible.

[@doug.patterson4732]

i like the old truck

[@DarkFlamage]

I call that part a "spring eye".

[@tylerschrock9942]

Got a 53 chevy dump truck. What size barb fitting did you use for the carb?

[@michaelmott8086]

About 1952, they advertised these as "Chevrolet, the only fine car ... priced so low." That may or may not have applied also to "Advance Design Chevrolet Trucks." I'd prefer 70-series tires on these older cars but, otherwise, I'd like to keep it a 6-cylinder car, or truck.

[@jacksnyder7398]

Tell me about the 51 Ford convertible ?

[@CrazyAaronWayne]

what kind of clack pump do you use?

[@rbear4574]

Put a shot of shine down the carb.

[@aftershock2222]

Yup, $1000 for a new two piece drive line is too much. You’re better off finding a used one. They show up on eBay occasionally. The last one I bought there cost me $200 shipping included. When you find one, you’ll probably have to cut it. Most of the ones out there are for the PowerGlide. Yours has a four speed , right? Thanks for the vid.

[@MrDrPrPatrickStar86]

Is the motor a 216 or 235?

[@kenkuliasa2110]

When will it be up on ebay?

[@rickjohnson1632]

👍👍

[@whitaker2107]

you are supposed to soak it in motor oil and let a little lay in the bottom tray, they work infinitely better then a paper filter but how can you sale filters when you have one that you rinse with gas poor oil over and use forever

[@skullcapgarage920]

I think that one had an oil bath

[@jacksnyder7398]

Interested!

[@mowmanjones3353]

there is a place in Rochester that make's drive shaft's cant think of the name

[@resurrectionauto5714]

There are a couple places around here that do as well, we got quotes of over $1000 to have that 2pc driveshaft made😬 so on the search for a used one!

[@mowmanjones3353]

@@resurrectionauto5714 this may be a long shot,call misgen auto parts in MN,800 358 4902, ask them about the old yard south of Albert Lea, lot of older cars there, or google misgen auto parts, hope this helps

[@resurrectionauto5714]

We’re near Eau Claire WI. Planned to go to eBay with it, but you’re more than welcome to make an offer

[@jimmycanter242]

How is the overall rust on the Body and Frame floorboards thank you

[@bbrut3332]

Nothing like turning over a longtime stored engine without pulling the plugs and putting some oil or MM oil down the cylinders to lube the cylinder walls or pulling the valve cover to see if a valve was rusted shut or open. Great teaching skills......not.

[@resurrectionauto5714]

This wasn’t for educational purposes. This isn’t a school.
