I believe I have the same truck but it is a step side fully complete. I own a scrap yard and don’t have the heart to shred it.

[@johnstudinski]

[@williamjones9099]

That’s a sweet truck I had a 66 fleet side 283 small window 1/2 ton same truck I really miss the ole girl

[@kevinlangley3782]

Nice... my dad had that same color blue shortbed 65. It got to where it wouldn't pass inspection so he cut it in half and made a trailer out of the rear...they stopped inspections 2 yes later ,lol.

[@ThisNThatGarage]

Well that sucks.

[@billywird]

Yes sir I put a Chevrolet 350 and turbo 400 combination into a 1946 GMC 11/2ton truck back in the early eighties. I acquired the engine at a storage facility because the fellow who had rented the facility was a Navy man and he was transferred and could not sell it. The engine was locked up as he had a rod backwards when he was assembling the engine. Of course. I fixed the problem and installed the engine and transmission. I had the truck stored at a friend of mine's place and I would go down and run it occasionally, Well the first time I went to run the truck the oil was milk and the only way I could figure was that the hood beings a side style with a center hinge could be rain water getting inside the engine (the engine of course was sealed up air filter on the carb and all orifices closed up) After that I would lay a cover over the engine and that problem went away. I later installed the engine into a 1972 Chevrolet four-wheel drive truck in 93 and it is still in the truck today although it is getting to the point where I will need to rebuild the engine. It is sad that people leave engines uncovered to the extent that we have this damage, and of course 283 engines are not that common anymore. They were good little engines. But even though I had this engine in the GMC complete and running (I actually drove the truck to where I had it stored) the dreaded water damage still got into it due to the hood design allowing rainwater to get into the engine (best I could figure). If I were not going down and running the truck (as well as cutting the grass around it) the engine would have been ruined.

Put some vinger down In it that will un stick it be a good ol truck get it a going usually them old trucks that had a six in them that been changed to a V8 runs good rode a many a mile in one of them like the color of that one you do some good videos you sure got a Dandy 53 man that's sharp .

[@edwardmulder3777]

Deffo a good idea to soak the whole engine in vinegar for about 1 _ 2 days like a coupla other guys suggested with a pan on it then the trans fluid , vinegar will eat up the rust

[@larrywoodruff7530]

Old abandoned trucks are really on fire right now, they are all going to be scarfed up and saved, that's a good thing, lotsa videos comin, lotsa money changin hands.

[@Rebel9668]

I love that interior color. Used to have a neighbor that had one just like it he NEVER drove so it was pretty much yard art. I kept trying to get him to sell it but he never would. Then he passed on and one of the first things his widow did was to get that truck gone. I didn't ask her about it only because I figured I should wait a while so I didn't seem like some vulture but maybe I should have asked now in hindsight. This was back in the late '80's so there wasn't any rust on it at all as it sat under a graveled carport.

[@scotttait2197]

Great video ... I'm sure yiu could find a motor for the old truck ... yiu probably right about being a different hood....a lot of parts have been "liberated" in the tine in the field 👍

[@richardbates2367]

Look in the bed you'll see the orange park lights which on this truck are mounted to the hood so I would guess that is what is left of the original hood in the bed and the truck?!

[@enjoythesho1992]

I pulled a 65 long bed out of the woods in Tennessee it had been sitting since the early 90s thing had maybe 60% of it floor pans left had a old school beefed up 250 six cylinder in it with a 230 head common mod in the 70s new fuel lines fuel tank carb rebuild and all new break components had her running and driving in 2 weeks had the strongest running inline six iv ever had it had power like a 350 sbc would burn the rear tires off and pulled like a train

[@aldoovercomer5473]

Good thing you get used gm 350s pretty cheap. If the head gasket went, that could have filled the cylinders with water.... or cracked head.

[@SekTauBand]

i bought a 56 plymouth last year and found the motor was stuck. sure enough when i pulled the heads three cylinders were full of water. surprisingly, the paraffin oil had protected the cylinders and there was only minor surface rust that i could wipe off with my finger! i got it unstuck and the cylinders look great. i'm currently rebuilding the heads and i plan to replace the bearings, hone cylinders and put it back together. best of all there was virtually no ring ridge at all!

[@joshph2716]

I had a 65 miss it want this truck I too live in TN

[@joshph2716]

nvm don't have the 292

[@jasongreen2252]

Stick one on cameras that hook to your phone then check out the cylinder walls in the Pistons see how stuck it is for me if it ain't bad I don't know maybe a WD-40 or a little bit of transmission fluid down each tundra that'll open help open up the valves too when it starts but if it's real bad and it's really vinegar

[@jasongreen2252]

I think that's cool a 283 with three speed on the column best is cool

[@drake89316]

Ive always wanted to take a rusty motor and put it a big container of used or new motor oil for 6 months and see if it frees up!!!! Been lucky so far.. always get em unstuck

[@danbentsen]

You going to look for another motor for the 65 C10, or keep it for parts, whats your plan. Thanks for the watch. Are you going to start your new shop.

[@ThisNThatGarage]

Shop is coming this fall when it cools off.

[@jasongreen2252]

I want to see update on that cuz if you can get to run without smoking like a freight train do it all stuck valves and stuff and probably a pretty good run a little motor

[@robertbennett9243]

would the body/bed fit on lockjaw?

[@babaninja9043]

If you like it, that’s all that matters

[@davidhofferbert6295]

I don't blame you. The only good thing on that carcass was the frame. Better luck next time!!

[@DennisMurphey]

Dang I wanted to the old Chevy running, You have neat stuff, Old Cars and Trucks. Are you able to pull the 283s out and pull the heads to see if they can be saved. Such a same folks leave the old cars like that. You take care, D

[@TheGhostMan7]

[@jasongreen2252]

Is it going to rush above the windshield cuz everyone I've seen has had rust and above the windshield but if it ain't you got your deal cuz all the other stuff is just easy three on the tree I had a 63 and it was a three on the tree pretty cool

[@jasongreen2252]

[@Larry-b6l1e]
