It amazes me how we both speak the same language yet our dialects are so vastly different “this’un” really made me smile we never hear that in the U.K. Thanks for all your hard work your videos are great to watch. 👍👍👍

I'd say do minimal cosmetic work. Make it structurally sound and stabilize the rust with some linseed shine juice. Of course get it mechanically fixed up making it reliable and somewhat safer but it can only ever look this way once. Getting it back to new or show winning perfection is more in the wheelhouse of someone like Jay Leno who has limitless resources

In every cylinder, because the fuel pump, which isn't frozen and isn't leaking through its antique gaskets under pressure, keeps delivering enough gas through a filter and line that aren't hopelessly plugged with gunk, from a gas tank with fuel clean enough to make the trip.

If I had the money to pay him for the restoration... I would absolutely love to have this truck after it's fully restored. But, I'm pretty much a church mouse looking from the outside in, scratching for crumbs. But I still enjoy watching him resurrect these neat vintage vehicles!!!

It always amazes me when I see these vehicles so aged up, dirt and all. But then - when you get to see the interior, the good ol insides of the engine, just specking clean. Just awes me.

The sound of all 4 cylinders chuffing back to life gives hope. Suddenly those horrible running boards are just bent metal that can be fixed, missing parts to be sourced or fabricated... there isn't much to the truck and you get optimistic. Well done.

Ahhh, this was a cool video. Nice to see a young guy take an interest in history, because that's what you're dealing with here Automotive History! What a great truck. You get it running and back on the jobsite everyone that sees this truck is going to think you are the coolest and you are! Dude you are the MAN! You are doing God's work here; get this old Mack truck running down the road!

Man the best thing about these is the simplicity of these old engines. I love how they are so bare-bones and down to basics compared to modern crap. Makes them a joy to work on in a way.

I knew it would run. Took more than I thought it might. My brothers had a 27 Star they ran around in. At some point it seized up but they worked on it & got it going again. They both have died but my younger brother has it & I'm sure it runs. Love the sound of those old motors.

I guess she wanted you to get a work out, lol. She definitely made you work for it. This one was really cool. I could actually hear it as each cylinder came back to life. This one was good save for what has to be a pretty rare truck. I hope you keep your promise and restore this one.

I definely wanna see one day this thing gets restored back to life, would be awesome to see it running again on the road. I'm not a huge car specialist but iwhat I think is that if the engine works fine, the rest will just be as easy to get it back running.
