Looks like a decent old truck. I have always liked those old square body chevys. The ones I have are 6.2 Diesels. Look forward to you getting back in shape. Thanks for the Video.

[@danlowery3235]

This is a great project! I can't wait for the next video!

[@bertollie6840]

Keep on building 👍🏻

[@lloydrobinson7081]

the torque converter holds at least 11 quarts of fluid & the trans holds the rest. the carb should already be preadjusted from the manufacture. keep the clips coming

[@jaymepaxton797]

Kudos WES to get it running & moved!!!

[@gail8494]

Woohoo you got it moving!

[@puddleduckist]

Lookin good!!!

[@tonywoodward3167]

Old truck are the best

[@bobbyellerbrook4767]

you check the trans fluid with it running, and you put gas in the front two barrels not the back!

[@markbrittell2001]

Nice old truck. Liked the pinup girl on the dash...

[@victorrobinson9116]

And please replace that freeze plug if it's leaking check all the hoses and put a little RTV gasket sealer on the hoses so they don't leak

[@glennrhinehart3186]

Hey Wes while you got the chainsaw handy cut those sprouts down along the barn 😮

[@charlesvaughn9055]

Good job God Bless

[@canvids1]

good for you to get that old truck moving and you will get in the garage and fix it up.

[@victorrobinson9116]

It's a Chevrolet truck yes their bulletproof with a HEI style distributor !

[@fortitudegarage8956]

You can get those same wheels in 16" , 8 bolt... Or some ole White Spoke/Wagon Wheels Always look good on an old pickup!! Great video keep up the good work!!

[@user-ht1xu4gv2u]

Van wheels 16 mthe same too

[@Randomness5050]

"Fix the cigarette lighter."

[@brucebonkowski9568]

Put in a bottle of Lucas transfix it helps soften the seals

[@stumpy2816]

👍👍

[@royhaught9516]

You don't have a lot in that truck, should be a good work truck. For now from rural Iowa.

[@victorrobinson9116]

Hopefully he did replace the freeze plug if that's where it's leaking from but if not he'll learn his lesson

[@WesFarms]

🤦‍♂️

[@tbas1972]

Have you had to use your pumps? I just love them things !

[@WesFarms]

Not for a while

[@tbas1972]

@@WesFarms dang they are so cool

[@victorrobinson9116]

You need to smell the transmission pan bolts up just a little bit because the transmission gasket leaks a little bit

[@billsauberlich7337]

Any vidios or pictures of Dads truck pulling days,sounds expensive lol

[@WesFarms]

Probably have some somewhere

[@victorrobinson9116]

Did you burn out the electric choke is it still hooked up LOL you better go check

[@victorrobinson9116]

😂 transmission pan leaks on Chevrolets if the vehicle's been sitting around for any length of time

[@markriggins3083]

Of course it runs. It's a Chevy.

[@joshbutterfass5251]

Did you check to make sure it had oil in the motor otherwise you could have a problem problem if you didn’t check the oil

[@WesFarms]

Yes I did

[@rogerembry4777]

Put some transmission fluid in it

[@victorrobinson9116]

And you going to blow the head gaskets by not running it with coolant but you learn

[@brandonducharme6544]

Help if there's Transmission fluid in it no fluid it wo t move

[@vincentconsolo5782]

The trans fluid is low right ? How about putting some in it ? No hydraulic pressure .

[@WesFarms]

I have since topped it off the CORRECT way with it running, it still doesn’t shift. I’m guessing there’s an issue with the vacuum modulator/vacuum line. I have not had time to diagnose. But thank you for your advice.

[@vincentconsolo5782]

@@WesFarms you can do it ! My dad had an 1980 Cheyenne 3/4 ton with a 350 and no converter in those days if was over 8,600 gvw. Thats how GM got away with it in the 80's. Great trucks the square bodies.

[@IsaacTimmons-ut6zg]

Chevy. C10. Are. The. Beest

[@jameswhite3817]

Trans fluid your gonna burn up the pump if u don't have it full when trying to move it

[@ericaken3338]

Did you say you put 40 psi in that old tire I don't put more than 35 psi in them

[@WesFarms]

Can’t remember

[@markamcampbell5795]

The brakes are locked up maybe. emergency brakes.

[@markamcampbell5795]

what did you do with your hand?

[@WesFarms]

Knicked it with my picket knife when I was cutting the hose

[@keitharseneau9845]

Could I use that truck on a date soon?? She looks like she could be a Chick magnet!!!!!

[@327JohnnySS]

Sounds like a major vacuum leak?

[@WesFarms]

You think?

[@richardprobst7885]

Let me driveit

[@Mr-er6fg]

Too bad it's not 67-72. Back when Chevy trucks had STYLE!

[@jmplants]

For god sake’s never put your feet on leave the vehicle like that back, give me a heart attack

[@WesFarms]

[@antonioblocker3292]
