The yellow car is a Vega. And the Chevy 4 door was a Nova. '62-65

[@garthsgraveyardgarage]

Thank ya!

[@thomas-hk4ky]

I am looking for a 1976 Ford truck.

[@khb3892]

The rear bumper was a dealer put on, different areas got other options. Another great Chevy truck. Thanks Garth

[@tonynapoli2733]

Cool old GMCv nice score!!

[@dennisbol5325]

Like your channel. Can't wait for the next video

[@the_truck_farmer]

You southern guys are so lucky! Up here in the midwest all that awesome old iron is much harder to come by...especially in cheap project form like that! An unrestored driver 67-72 Chev pickup has been my dream since i was a teenager (a few decades ago...). Thanks for the cool content Garth!

[@richardbates2367]

I'm a northeastern indiana farm kid so not only were most of my projects rusty they were farm trucks usually square body trucks 2 and 4wd and a few Chevy first series S10 truck had 4 different ones of those,, and the last two farm trucks I had were a well used and beat midnight blue and frost gloss white 86 chevy k20 custom deluxe except the faded red 83 single headlight GMC High Sierra k15 doghouse minus the hood and the one I traded it for was a early 94 Chevy extended cab short bed Z71 onyx gloss black with a quicksilver center stripe running down the sides and the tailgate, and the current truck is a northern Ohio 2000 dodge ram laramie slt quad cab long bed gloss black with most of the white pinstripe 5.2 litre 318 V8 magnum 46 RE AT manual shift transfer case lever on the floor.

I love watching your videos they are entertaining to watch. Can’t wait to see more 👍

Good evening from central Michigan

[@paulweigle6872]

The yellow car is a chevy vega, it and the astre was the first of the 71-80 gm H-body. It would appear that the daughter may like the hulk. I have had a 68 and 69 Chevy, and a 71 gmc. Very cool trucks. That one is in very good shape. Can't wait to see where this goes.

[@williamdon3442]

Good job dude. Hello from Saskatchewan Canada 🇨🇦 love all the old Gm trucks

[@janetdanner9706]

Great job

[@maxheadroom8857]

I can see this being a shop truck once it is back to running in decent shape. I'm not a fan of General Motors vehicles, but I see the value of a 67 GMC pickup being saved and restored to a very good condition daily driver. I have a friend from my elementary school days who bought his dad's 67 long bed Chevrolet stepside truck from him. His dad bought it new, and he enjoys driving that old truck around. My friend used it for his work truck, but now uses it for leisure activities. Since GMC trucks are more rare, I can see this eventually being restored to use as both a daily driver and an occasional show truck, stock modified. Too many people suggest chopping and shortening the truck; I say leave that alone and eventually fix it up with rusted body parts getting repaired and painted. I do recommend replacing the rear cracked window with a sliding rear window from a C R Laurence dealer. They're the company that started the sliding rear windows on many trucks carrying camper tops, giving the truck owner the option to have access to the camper, but still have a window rather than a crawl through boot. I have a 59 Ford F100 that I installed a sliding rear window on, to replace a cracked rear window. It is more comfortable to ride in it with the rear window open during the summer months.

[@michaelduncan5248]

I want to see you guys work on the old mill truck cause it looks like pretty cool to me

[@chevyguy7913]

The R sticker is Renthal. They make dirt bike handle bars.

I drove a 68 GMC for an old farmer i worked for as a kid! That yellow car in the row of camaro's was a chevy vega... about a 71-74. That would be cool as a drag car!

i thought it was a vega as soon as i saw it ..i was there's a vega between the cramaros

A 1967 GMC C10 Man, I'd love to have one of those beauties

[@SAM.EIGHTYFOUR]

Gmc used a different nu.bering system. Chevy was c10 and gmc was c15. C was the 2 wheel drive models and k was 4 wheel drive models. And GM still uses that c/k letters today

[@karlsmith2570]

@@SAM.EIGHTYFOUR that's right, I'd forgotten that GMC does use a different numbering system.

I've seen the ZOMBUGG in my travels to Canyon Lake. Love it!

[@rhondasweeney7271]

The pick up is very nice. I think it would make a nice vehicle for some nice young man. Just need a little TLC !

[@sykwookiee]

Or for some young lady...

Or, some old guy … me, lol.

Holy smokes, you are just about to hit, 10k subs!

[@stevecomb180]

That’ll be a nice horse once you get it finished up. It runs pretty good. You were moving kind of fast but just looking at the wheels is it a 3/4 ton? If it is, that would be a very cool shop truck for you. 🤘🤘🤘

[@garthsgraveyardgarage]

[@ELOfanatic]

The yellow car is a Vega. The city on the rear window sticker is pronounced "Beaut"

[@garthsgraveyardgarage]

Oops 😁

[@JayWelchy]

Cool truck. Yellow car is a 70 Vega - good year. Rough or not, somebody will want that one. That 4 door Chevy 300 in the back by the Falcon is a 62 Nova 300. My dad had the 2 door, that he put a 283 in ... and a 4 speed ... and alllll the 70s stuff. Oh, and took me to school in it when I was little. Loud as a M'fer. The R sticker on the GMC drivers door is the early 2000"s Renthal sticker. Motocross/ATV bars. Yea man, time warp stuff!

[@TheDutchVanMan]

You are a lucky man , Dad, cool shop, thanks

[@TheDutchVanMan]

haha I an so Sorry Garth , i commented on the previous clip on my Phone browser, but I do like your videos, i am a subsciber

[@alanphillips556]

WOW..that dounds awesome through the headphones. 😂 Look forward to the next episode. Keep going garth.

[@joeteeter]

When you get it going i would say clean it up and get some VGG shine juice to put on it

[@1954shadow]

I see, many Rock Auto magnets, in your future, lol.

[@TimCarter-y4p]

The rear bumper allows the tailgate to hang down complete

[@alan6832]

That's a VEGA and they are one of my favorites. The original aluminum block engines need steel liners, but they are lightning with a Mouse and can easily take Iron Dukes. Most are rotted to hell, so if you find one that isn't, it's a gem. You don't remember the Mad Max Vega family van that loses it's radiator?

[@robertjohnstone2869]

Hi Garth greetings from Scotland UK love the channel we dont see a lot of American iron over here ,although I have 2 VW splitscreen one came from Pennsylvania, and one from witchata falls Texas, keep up the good work.

[@garthsgraveyardgarage]

Greetings and thank you!

[@jasonnoteboom4489]

I wonder if the PO had overheating problems, not realizing that they had the wrong fan. Those 67s are cool. Nice.

[@airplanemaniacgaming7877]

this video just introduced me to the channel, and holy smokin sausages that car yard is something that I WISH was possible to be in such conditions up north. Good thing it isn't though, unless you want to try and assemble the rust back together, instead of workin on a car. EDIT: Seems the owner of the truck was a bit of a metalhead. Good taste in music. Korn, Megadeth..... probably lots more but they just didnt put stickers on it. I'd give it a nice bluetooth radio so I can blast some good stuff while driving (not so loud that other people can hear the exact song from 30 feet away while driving, of course. That's called "an easy way to get hearing damage") but aside from that, go nuts how ya see fit! Not that I can tell you what to do anyways, it's your truck, not mine, haha!

[@timneale8869]

Frist time watching your videos grant 😊.

[@79tazman]

That yellow car you did not know what it was is a early Vega the ones with the camaro looking front end. cool car but like you said really beat up. That 4 door Nova is cool would make a fun drag car for sure.

[@juniorwest5706]

The R sticker on the passenger door is " Renthal " motocross stuff 😎👍🇺🇸

Great find

[@alanphillips556]

Yea, she'll be good. Keep going. I'll watch the rest later c ya.❤😊

[@s2meister]

I know you are more of a Chevy person, but if that Lincoln is straight and the frame is decent, that would be a great (big) project. If I was just a few hundred miles closer I would be down there and grab it myself.

[@sulistiman]

nice chevy truck 😊

[@jamesleonard5607]

Nice truck

[@clydepodvin5026]

There's air conditioning in every car, garth 2 windows down at 70 mph. Great video

[@BelloBelvedere]

It has not big problems. It seems good so far. It will be a good truck

69 C20 2WD was my first truck. Wish I’d have never sold it.

[@derekperkins8158]

engine looks good

[@alan6832]

Isn't straight starting fluid a bit harsh? Junkyard Digs uses brake cleaner when not mixed with old gasoline.

[@alan6832]

I think that an original GMC would have a Pontiac engine with a front distributor.

[@alan6832]

I wonder if it would be easy to attach a wooden beam to that bumper, that might make the truck easy to push with other vehicles, or push other vehicles backwards.

[@karlsmith2570]

13:10 Yeah the 67-72. GMC's had 4 headlights whereas the same year models of Chevrolet trucks had the single Highbeam/Lowbeam headlights

[@richardbates2367]

I believe it has mismatched pulleys also the water pump and the crank pulley but I have done that alot myself but it can lead to serious issues trying to line everything up

[@oldgeezer3269]

cool video bud I think she will come good with a bit more love 👍👍

[@jeanlawson9133]

You can use a sewing needle to pop out the ignition switch then you can crank it with a screwdriver....There should be a hole in front of the ignition switch... insert needle and tumbler will come out.... Anywho nice Georgia Milk Cow.... color is cool...

That only works if you have a key.

[@erickort1987]

make a drag car out of that mail jeep,that would be crazy,lol

[@StephenCone-cc7mv]

I owned a 71 C10 and a 74 Nova 4 door.

[@hoosierpete]

Chevy 2 or Nova which ever you like to call it and that was a Chevy Vega had the old Iron Duke 4 cylinders in them. The truck was most likely 3 on the tree originally. No power breaks either.

[@russellcalone835]

I really think you need to do the 1961 Chevelle because you can make a muscle car out of it they was really good cars back in their days

[@richardbates2367]

See the square stamping section by the thermostat housing that is a mid 80's gm aluminum intake manifold i have had a 84 Pontiac Grand Prix le with one a 84 Chevy Camaro with one and a a 84 gmc short wheelbase van with one all of those motors are h.o.416 casting heads number 305sbc the van was a L6 swap

That's not power, that's torque and traction. An 8n tractor could pull that tuck sideways with about 20 horsepower.

[@richardbates2367]

I used to keep my square body truck with a 250L6 th400 just for moving project cars and trucks and vans for parts around and there was not much it couldn't pull with a 12bolt rear end with 4.56 gears

Kickin GMC truck! The Old white Ford right beside it is awesome too! I think it's a 1967? Or around there. It' would be great to get both of them if you could but that might be impossible. Oh man!! The Yellow car you couldn't identify is a 1973 ish. Chevy Vega! Man those are Hard to find now days! They are KICKIN BIG TIME! If you could get your hands on one. Apparently you can LOL. They came with optional V8's and they made the Monza Spider (Same car different name and front grill)

[@robgto7051]

don't know what a Vega is wow

[@alan6832]

Aerodynamics is a big part of highway gas mileage and Gen3 comaroes look pretty good on that score. So do you think it would be possible to ressurrect a recycled gen3 hypermiler for Greta? This is doubly true if the back is big enough to save motel bills.

[@garykboy5103]

The yellow car is a chevy Vega And white 4-door is a chevy nova

[@christiantrybura1160]

You should pick up the white Ford 300 or the Falcon😀

[@richardbates2367]

I don't remember if I had mentioned this previously before but I actually have had a ateam/southwest performance out of California tbi billet aluminum brand new distributor $65 car done advanced auto distributor u swear looks like the same dang thing $132.49 nope and I did end up having a few weird idle ignition issues and then I noticed the coil pins were bent up and causing the coil to cut in and out, so i pulled it out and started to straighten them noticed it was a no name number or any kind of reference part and it needed a location pin shaved down because it didn't sit flush with the heat vent on the distributor housing so I just went to Amazon and ordered a ac Delco d194s ignition control module and bam no more issues fires up as soon as you hit the key early 94 Chevy Z71 Silverado extended cab short bed k1500 two tone onyx gloss black with the quicksilver center going down the sides and the tailgate, even with the gm horrible 80's'90's paint peeling crap it's a beautiful truck,has a very decent interior dash is in really good shape except for the lower panel because they mounted the brake controller to and it is was way to heavy so it broke one of the clips, has a replacement motor from a 87 gmc p30 0.40 350tbi and a complete heartthrob brand deep tone dual glass pack muffler exhaust system and 3 1/2 inch outlet single wall tubing,,stainless steel heartthrob brand slant cut exhaust tips straight out of the back of the truck on each side of the receiver hitch it is loud!!! And when it was running like crap my neighbors hated the truck probably still did anyway, but it sounded like a double barrel 12-16 guage side by side shot gun being fired both barrels simultaneously... And it would shoot out 4 ft flames ooohh oh crap lol , it was a complete kit but they had ordered the late 94-99 3 inch cat flange and it has the bigger one so these farm kids just cut out the cat and welded the exhaust and stainless 30 degree elbows from the parts store directly to the engine down pipe on each side so it is true dual exhaust...

[@fasttruckman]

I've dealt with a few of those Amazon eBay distributors and in every one of them the module failed within 6 months. I ended up buying some NOS module's to replace those Chinese module's.

[@richardbates2367]

Me too replaced the rusted distributor in the early 94 Chevy extended cab short bed Z71 tbi truck which worked but ran like crap,, and bought a new one from southwest performance brand identical to the ateam performance distributor on Amazon probably both billet aluminum distributor housing manufacturer tsp China junk, and I didn't like how it ran with the no name ignition control module so I bought a ac Delco ds194

THAT is a great car to make into a a rock n roller! LOL. Rear wheel drive came with Chevy 350ci often as well and small and looks sweet once it has some wider wheels with mags etc. THAT would be AWESOME!!

The yellow car is a Chevy Vega. In order to change the timing on them just grab the timing belt and give it a yank ang that will change your timing. those things are a joke to work on. At least the four cylinders are.

That Ford next to it would be worth fixing too. Bumps are starting to get expensive.

[@maxheadroom8857]

@tcanthony2 that 68-72 bumpside is a workhorse when equipped with either a 360FE or 390FE. I inherited my uncle's 68 long bed styleside when he passed away. He bought it new; 3 speed, plain package with the white steel grille and bumper. The only options he had on it beside the 360FE V8 was the AM radio.

[@garthsgraveyardgarage]

It has the 390 and unfortunately not for sale.

[@maxheadroom8857]

@@garthsgraveyardgarage that 390FE makes the Ford F100 bumpside more desireable to others looking for the bumpsides. The combination of the 390FE with the C6 automatic commands premium prices. By the color of the F100, I suspect it's between a 70-72 longbed Styleside F100. That truck was probably built in the Dallas Ford factory. My 59 and 68 F100s came from the San Jose California factory.
