[@genmaxpain]

to fix any radiator intercooler(low pressure about 15 ish psi/1 bar) use radiator resin, thats the key to fixing them, it will never fail at all, its what they do here for the last 25 years +, it will save you a lot of money(new radiator/cooler), i had an full all alloy oil cooler sealed with resin and it still works 15 years later, many hot cold changes probably about 20,000 hot cold cycles, and thats reasonably high pressure 80 psi cold to 44 psi warm, not to mention a vital component(engine oil cooler on a turbo performance car, nissan skyline R33 GTS25T)

[@terrymoore9185]

So they paid you for the weight of the tar as well? Cool!

[@phillipforest4949]

This has become my favorite channel on KZbin for the main reason of you and your dad working together. Keep making videos, and I will keep watching

[@danstuck2063]

Your father and you make it look soo easy on "tv" aka you tube, I can't imagine the hours you put in to making our entertainment! I have enjoyed following you for few years now on KZbin. Makes me feel inspired, may the lord bless you and your people😇

[@theetravisb]

Thank you it is allot of work I’m glad you enjoy God bless

[@TheDogsBox]

@<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="2562">42:42</a> It all starts to make sense now. Dad knows that when Travis is making a scrap run, he needs to come over and survey the pile to make sure nothing good goes missing.

[@theetravisb]

You are exactly right.

[@marcusaurelius2770]

Very funny......but true.

[@dbabyzo]

That truck probably was used for driveway sealer company like X10 or something like that they probably had driveway sealer in a tank on the back and when it wrecked it went everywhere the tank is probably what bent the front of the bed... messy! Never mind you just described it as I'm watching the rest of the video

[@Baystateboy125]

You’re a good man Travis. You put your family first, which is something that every new father should do. Unfortunately, some men are clueless and don’t want to change their priorities.

[@Me-zo8yc]

Well said

[@Me-zo8yc]

Anyone else like the little text addendums added throughout? 😄 Good job on the truck. Your Dad seems well, best wishes to you both!

[@stevelangston2359]

I count it a privilege to give a thumbs up for these continuing high quality videos. Thanks Rick and Travis!

[@theetravisb]

Thank you for watching !

[@clearthrifts4462]

I did flat roofing for years use deisal and gas mix will cut rite through that tar

[@herbiehusker1889]

I would love to pick up one of these old 12v, but they are so hard to find a good one that the body hasn't rotten out.

[@cabalcore2555]

What a fantastic distraction from my mind-numbing work training. Thanks Travis!

[@theetravisb]

Yessir hope you enjoy.

[@cabalcore2555]

Also, I love these trucks. I know they aren't the best out there but I took my driving test in an '01 1500 long-bed extended cab Laramie. It had the 360 in it and I would drive the absolute crap out on the weekends in high school.

[@cabalcore2555]

@@theetravisb It was awesome as always. I wish you the very best of luck getting all of that tar off lol.

[@terrypack7537]

The gasoline signs look fantastic. Great job .

[@johnkendrick7304]

That Pontiac is absolutely cool as hell

[@drewgonzales4224]

I like what you do Travis...the gas pumps and sign you just put up ..its nice all lit up at night..

[@richdandrea9413]

admire your determination, your abilty to think through some tough issues, and the hard work....and proud of you the way you love your Dad and the Mrs with Child..God Bless you buddy..

[@mikemurphy5336]

yes travis if your reading this post just letting you know 2 downfalls of the 12v 5.9 cummins What Are the Cons of the 12V Cummins? One of the biggest issues with the 12V Cummins is a small dowel pin located in the front of the engine. Installed during assembly, the “killer dowel pin” helped with aligning the timing cover. The engine’s vibrations can cause the dowel pin to come out over time and potentially end up behind the front engine cover and between timing gears, causing damage. The 12-valve 5.9 Cummins also can have issues with the injection pump’s overflow valve, which can leak or end up with a broken spring or an eroded seat. The throttle position sensor can also fail, resulting in unbalanced air-to-fuel ratios.

[@barryburkholder4000]

I used to use charcoal lighter fluid on a rag to remove road tar. It worked greet with no damage to the paint. Mineral spirits would probably work too.

[@alfagrim2065]

Thank you for creating this amazing channel!. I look forward to every single episode. Good, down-to-earth, "work with what you have"-attitude. It's also educational :)

[@marktaylor8659]

Love that Sinclair gas sign. When my older brother and I were kids back in the early 60s, Sinclair had some inflatable dinosaurs they sold or gave away at service stations. We begged my dad to go to Sinclair and get us each one, but he was a solid Gulf gasoline guy and we never got one. Thanks for sharing this video.

[@theetravisb]

That’s interesting thanks for the story

[@fishinmusician-h3i]

they sold them,but not suitable for a pool toy,didnt last long.another Sinclair toy dinosaur,was at the Sinclair exhibition at the New york worlds fair 1964-65.for a Quarter you could get a injection molded brontosaurus,you could watch it being made in the machine

[@SeanStevens24]

I was never really a diesel guy, but I’m starting to really appreciate the Cummins content. My wife is from where they’re built, and her aunt actually works at the Cummins plant

[@theetravisb]

That’s really cool

[@LastChanceFossil]

Thank you Travis. You and your dad are relaxed with all your approaches. Love the Cummins, we don't have these in Australia. Congratulations on the baby. Keep these videos coming

[@markcassidy5883]

Its like a mini museum you've got going on there,,looks great,,

[@General.Longstreet]

One of the best automotive channels on KZbin! This and Simon Fordman.

[@BHD5900]

Wow man, you are brave. nice projects. i'm following you from Argentina. I have mine too. (3 cummins projects and a couple of air cooled diesel too). Saludos!

[@ChristinaWiseman-m3z]

With that truck becoming your family truck for your growing family, a new carpet kit is a good investment. You will soon see your children crawling around on it and you want a good carpet with no toxins in it including carpet cleaner. Children always end up on the floor. There's no stopping it. I am the mother of two boys who are older than you now Just make sure the floors are clean. Still watching you from Yuma AZ

[@billtodd6509]

You can take that truck to a facility that washes out tankers and they have a special citrus base solvent that will remove that tar and asphalt based junk in a snap. There are a couple tanker trailer wash outs in the Tucson area.

[@marcusaurelius2770]

Great idea for the parts he is not replacing.

[@johnkendrick7304]

I'm with you, I cannot stand those LED fake lights that people put on there they look absolutely stupid. Keep up the good work

[@gaborhorvath2478]

Good choice Travis! I know that Emily and your child will like it also! 🙂✌️

[@jameslavery6216]

God bless. It's a very challenging project if the price is right. You might be able to replace the truck bed.

[@Rayrayman111]

I inherited a second gen recently and it’s been my project. I’ve had dozens of different cars and trucks. This is my first dodge. I love it

[@Mytwocentsisallicanafford]

Told someone the other day auto makers don't come around most people will be car shopping at junkyards

[@baileymiller546]

That thing looks like a nightmare 😂 this is the only channel I watch anymore for truck/car content Travis along with Junkyard Digs. Great job you and your dad are awesome. Wish my dad and I had something in common.

[@66skate]

The seller should have paid Travis to take it off hiss hands.

[@theetravisb]

Glad I’m up in your top watches man

[@Hemingway97]

Excited for this Travis- I’ve been wanting to do this for quite some time! Can’t wait to watch this all.

[@thomasbradley4868]

I like this kind of video were you are getting parts off junk yard truck we all like to fix are truck. We need to learn how to take parts off ,like I have a 1997 ford ranger XLT stepside truck and it has 60/40 front seats I want to put bucket seats in it and a center console. 😊

[@Ledwards22]

My first truck was a 2001 Dodge Ram 2500 SLT Larime. It was an extended cab short bed with the opening rear. We bought it new in 2001 and it was in the family since. She currently has 197,810 miles and is an absolute gem! I love these truck so much!!! They’re just old pissed off tractors and it’s AWESOME!!! Love the videos you make. You and your dad are great guys, thanks for keeping these ole trucks runnin.

[@steveraus3495]

Yeah, I scrap metal like you do. The way I see it, I don't have to PAY to dump it, it gets recycled, and they actually PAY me SOMETHING to get it out of life.

[@matingarner4714]

We always use Diesel for tar ,keep up the good work.Martin Thailand

[@DieselAddict-vs9fc]

Agree. I had tar all over the side of my truck and I couldnt come off. I spilt some diesel on the side when I put fuel in it. Came out the next day and the tar was melted.

[@AndreasLarsson95]

I love lookingwhen people rebuild cars and trucks. :D Its better than buying a new one.

[@ethanpartain9686]

Mineral spirits we used at Henry company for roofing tar.

[@stevelangston2359]

I agree it will do the job

[@alexmoreau8921]

For those wiring connectors, I use a heat gun with tip on the end that wraps around the connector. It seals and melts them basically instantly!

[@garykuhn1921]

I dunno if it's the alcohol but I got heavy tar off a windshield with RainX. Might be worth a try. Would love to see an attempt at a paint job.

[@country4lyfe365]

You did a great job with that sign. Looks awsome.

[@LarryLokiSally]

Don't worry about the gunk,. That's a bed liner. Straighten it out. Take it man. Great truck.

Yeah it’s crazy

[@Jordanrhart]

Hey Travis, love your channel! As a dad of two I did the same thing right before my first was born. Sold my beautiful single cab and bought a crew cab. You might want to check how well a car seat can fit in the back of an extended cab like that. When in rear facing position, car seats take up a ton of room! Best of luck to you!

[@braxtonnelson5375]

Looking forward to the next installment on the Dodge! Your yard looks so cool with all the lighted signs-- so unique!

[@terryeustice5399]

[@theetravisb]

Thank you terry !

[@Wiltshire_watcher]

The memorabilia all lit up at night looks wonderful !. ❤ well done Travis..

[@howardkoster4026]

We used a heat gun with an attachment at the end that looked like a cupped "C" for these solderless butt splices. You figured out a way to do it. Way to go!!! There's more than one way to skin a cat. (1001 as per Mr. Spock from Star Trek.)

[@Hoganfan1]

Great video.... been watching since you started the channel love the content and presentation. You guys are inspiring. Great work ethic. You are in my top three U Tube channel favorites. 😎👍

[@theetravisb]

Thank you that means alot !

[@genmaxpain]

petrol will remove tar and it is a lot cheaper than any spray can, all you need is to get a pressure sprayer for solvents and spray fuel on it and it will wipe off very easy

[@billycapshew2411]

There goes the neighborhood you done turned into a pitchman like everyone else 😂

[@William-v9i]

Travis, you remind me of a pit bull in that you, like they, hang on and don't let go. I admire that in you and your dad. Keep on keeping on!

Early 98 12 valve. Thats my dads favorite truck. He has a 3500 dually 4x4 with a 12 valve and the quad cab. Kinda rare.

I did bro

[@aneaveill2]

Keep em coming brother

[@Chr.U.Cas1622]

👍👌👏 Maaan, I simply love all the gas station stuff. Especially those big, beautiful illuminated signs. 2) My first roofing tar spot I cleaned away by using ordinary butter (almost any fat or oil does the job). It was a trick that the professional roofing guy told me. Best regards, luck and especially health to all involved.

[@paularmstrong3472]

Travis, I really enjoy you and your dads videos. Awesome content. Love your yard signs pumps and memorabilia. As far as the tar goes on your new Dodge… do not use the power washer to remove it. The water makes the tar harden up instantly. Gasoline will work the best. Just small sections but it does work great. Keep up the good work.

[@billyhaddock5540]

YEA! I woulda brought another truck bed also. good work finding the front parts and hood. still going to changed-out the back bumper? Your Sign's at night is cool. good to have ur DAD there to help when possible..

[@bernardduffy1841]

Petrol or gas as yous call we've used it for years to remove road tar but you have to remove by hand no pressure washer

[@jdbargeron1]

Take a heat gun and soften it up, then take a plastic scraper to get the bulk of it off. The rest will wipe off with diesel fuel.

[@Rick-4552]

I cried when you junked the bed ,I woulda killed for one that good here in the rust belt 😢

[@theetravisb]

Issue is everyone who needs it is 1500 miles away who’s going to ship it or come get it.

[@Rowenzz]

To think there is probably a mint condition one of these sat in a garage somewhere, we’ll probably see it on KZbin in about 20 years lol

[@SchnelleKat]

Thanks for mentioning your boots you wear, i was curious for sometime... btw believe me when i say this. Michigan and Indiana guys would've paid $1k for that bed before it went to the scrap yard lol

[@theetravisb]

That’s wild. No one would give you anything for it here

[@gerhardorosz7984]

Diesel fuel is great for removing tar <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="640">10:40</a>.

[@StevenLott-yu6et]

Cool find that tar may test you patients for sure. Really enjoy your content. As a long time Ford guy I never had many of those 12v motors to play with. Just picked up a 98 extended cab with 3rd door. 2 wd 3500.

[@twowheelsnobrain]

Please keep doing these and videos in general! I started watching your channel after you met Dalton from PBG ! Love seeing honest people do stuff and explain well! Ignore the keyboard warriors and keep at it on here Travis

[@RealSteelFabrications]

You are killing it with these Cummins trucks! I just got me a 1991.5

[@aussiegonz]

years ago i paid $10 for a 400ml can of tar and bug remover and found this was going to be to expensive to keep doing, so i did a bit of digging and found that kerosene was a good replacement especially when it cost $8 for 5L(5000ml) worked well. acetone maybe worth trying also.

[@daviddamico4288]

Great job Travis the sing looks amazing…

Hi from Showlow!

[@joshsimmons8178]

only issue i ever have with any of those LED tail lights is how the running light intensity is just barley lower than brake light intensity so when they stop or turn it barley looks any different.

[@semurray1921]

Might as well take a wheel grinder to it then take it to maco. Keep up the good work Sir!

[@noahingram8052]

I'd buy a car before I'd replace that truck

[@tommyhijmensen6257]

Good parts truck !😊 +shoutout to youre dad ! Greetings from Holland

[@bigmountain7561]

Diesel breaks down asphalt/tar. They used to spray it in the TriAxle beds during Asphalt season to keep it from sticking to the bed.

[@DieselAddict-vs9fc]

I have 3 2nd gens. I love them. Best vehicles I've ever owned. I've had lml duramax, and 6.7 powerstroke. I'll take a 2nd gen over them anyday! Put a good dash cover on it, build the front end. She ready to run. Glad to see you saving these trucks!! Everyvody wants to part them out. They arent making anymore.

[@JeronWhite]

Sit there if you got you found another frame changeover. Put it on a newer frame to refrain, raise It Up an inch and get you some prime that thing, send it down, paint it, someone I'd love to have that truck paint it. Put a new bed liner in it, take the bit off on there now redo the bed. Everything put a new front end on it. Put a new clip Hola Chang's at back window. Has somebody duty and get the interior all done? Clean out of my stuff out. Change the - panel in there. Find a newer newer truck and scrap your get new seats full boo. Get somebody to sleep or death, depart it. There's no automatic steps pool.You're set and get a cap or a bed liner.There running on the back of it and that truck will be good

[@MoparJimmy]

Look forward to seeing more on this truck.

[@ronaldbertin9455]

Part are insane , bodywork is your own time😮

[@johnruppe1699]

Strong work Travis Looking good Rick!

[@kencooper2059]

If you have access to a commercial steam cleaner, it will melt the tar off. But, it will leave a mess, so do it out in the dirt or gravel. You'll need to wipe it with a solvent afterward, but that will only be a film at this point.

[@JeronWhite]

That a nice old truck

[@Goomer]

Man, you had a free bedliner in that bed.

[@Qwibby]

Awesome for brunt!!! I wear their boots, hoodies and stuff for work at Mack

[@bntrouble31]

I still say the Pontiac has 22,000 miles on it. I bet he had it rebuilt because it was sitting so much that it started to smoke. That would explain the rebuild. Just going by the receipt they did the rings re-ground the valves and resealed the engine.

[@theetravisb]

Yeah it’s looking like it has 22000 original.

[@josephjporcellijr4508]
