You need to do right by that truck and do some repairs and make her look nice and shiny. And she deserves it. Fix her up. Make it happy, and then you will be happy. And then everybody's gonna want it so you could sell it for lots of money.

[@1320freek]

Dude, i have almost the same truck!!! Mine is white also. I went to NC to buy mine a few years ago and tried driving it home with my car on the back. Aftet a few days of fixing it on the side of the road, I had made it to St. Augustine. At that point, I called a tow truck. Mine had sat for years also. After a few years and a lot of work, mine is in really good shape now! I love that truck. Mine is also a 3+3, 454, 4 speed (w/granny), and has a hodges bed. And like you, I was searching for a 4 door, square body, big block truck for a few years. Anyway, thanks for the video! I was reliving my trip back while watching your adventure.

Hey gotta break the rules from time to time 🙂

[@theglitch99]

My thoughts exactly

[@dustin5941]

As a broke college kid, I bought an 03 LB7 in Manhattan, KS. Gauge was off and ran out of fuel at 1am on the way back to St.Louis. 3-4 mile walk to the next exit. Worst night of my life at the time but great memories doing dumb truck stuff with my friends.

[@earlturner6023]

After buying my jeep I went offroading with a quarter tank on the gauge. Ran out of gas and had to hike out and hitch a ride to the gas station and back to the trail head.

[@double_js1450]

i was dying laughing.

[@TheGalantHamburger]

No wonder the dudes so busy building trucks 😂

[@P-J-W-777]

That deserves a full restoration. Leaving it patina is just a lazy way to call something finished. Custom build that motor and throw the blower on it and change the belt driven AC over to an electric driven AC or change it over to an LS/LT or a diesel. Those things even look awesome and a bit more comfortable with a modern interior swap.

[@turbocateyeS475]

Right because money grows on trees. Patina isnt lazy, even if you don't understand the style. Does the truck need some updating? Sure. But the point in having a ramp truck is to use it as a ramp truck. The bed needs to be powdercoated, polish up or respray the cab but besides that and mechanical stuff I'd leave it alone. A LS would be a waste. Plus watching this is completely free. Just enjoy the ride

[@P-J-W-777]

@ Grows on trees well enough to buy it. Besides I didn’t say anything about paying someone to do it. Sometimes restoring a vehicle can take a year or more to make right as well as spreading the cost out over an extended period. The bed doesn’t necessarily need to be powder coated . The surface of the bed should be sprayed with bed liner for durability and added grip. You could paint it and use grip tape but it doesn’t last and starts looking bad rather quickly. I also didn’t say the truck needed a 10k plus custom paint job. I do believe my first option was to rebuild the engine in the truck adding the blower that he mentioned and replacing the mechanical compressor with an electric compressor so he can keep his AC. The LS/LT were just an option if the motor wasn’t good enough for a rebuild. What part of spending money on a vehicle and then leaving the weathered rust colored damaged paint job alone not lazy?

[@punyoung]

Really appreciate you using all my good driving clips ❤

[@jaredmckelvey3512]

I would add a headache rack.. Just in case it happens.. Maybe even over load bags.. I forgot it’s a must add some cool lights with an air compressor.. Now that would be a rig….

[@pauliewalnuts240]

I dont even ask questions like "does it run well?" Or "will it get me home?" When buying stuff used. Most people don't know their vehicles. Those that do, often tell you lies because nobody gaf. A nice couple like this might tell you everything is fine because theyre unaware of hidden problems. Other people lie about everything just to get your money. Most people either don't know or won't tell you the truth, so I just base my decisions off what I can see. Play it safe & assume the worst, while paying accordingly.

[@nessie42786]

I had a problem with the ignition switch, mounted to the back of the steering column behind the dashboard. The rod from the cylinder wasn’t moving the switch far enough. So I had to adjust the switch on the back of the column.

[@mjmcomputers]

Smoothest ramp truck roadtrip I’ve seen. Finnegan would be jealous.

[@johnmagnus1016]

Love them square bodies! Had a 1975 GMC with a factory 454. Eventually installed an LS6 454Out of my Chevelle in it, (Chevelle upgraded to an LS7 454). Made hauling the boat and camper with the square body very interesting! I agree if Cletus has a hauler with a 632 you need one with a blown big block!

[@jberry1982]

Those trucks are notorious for burning up the purple wire in the steering column which is why you see them with push to start usually

[@ryurc3033]

I've also replaced like 10 of those tilt column ignition switch "combs" That pot metal piece is a pretty consistent breakage, it's not that easy, but better than working on a 14 Chevy Sonic.

I had a 1978 Chevy crew cab 454 automatic transmission, keep the 5 gallon spare gas in the bed, lol it will strand you , BigAl California thanks

[@mattyb4015]

Before you change the starter; don't forget to check the neutral safety switch. Try starting it in neutral (or give it a good hard shift into park) when it won't crank over. I wouldn't be surprised if it's going out on you.

[@clittle1559]

[@laman491]

I remember those years back that the starter is in close proximity to the exhaust manifold and would overheat. Knew a guy who would pour his water cooler on it after it was hot and did the same thing - it would start! A fix is a sheet metal heat shield for the starter

[@mattg7952]

I 454 swapped a 71 c10 years ago and it heat soaked the starter on the 5 mile drive home. Same thing a water bottle with the sippy lid to cool off the starter and she’d fire off again 😂
