Chevy C-30 Wrecker Sitting For Years Will It Run? - NNKH

[@NoNonsenseKnowHow]

Thanks so much everyone for checking out the video and dropping feedback below! Greatly appreciate it and definitely a future video coming on this wrecker. Also huge thank you to you guys who have commented on other Detailer KZbin channels about maybe collaborating with the 1974 Torino Elite. If you get a chance, leave a comment on your favorite detailing Channel like WD or AMMOnyc about them doing the NNKH Elite and maybe we can make this happen! Thanks!!!

[@adanfranchi578]

Another awesome video Chris. Thanks Bro!

I have the same exact wrecker body, It’s a No-Mar, actually purchased from the same outfitter in NJ too. I don’t know the model # because my ID tag has 8 layers of paint but it says “Coming to get ya” on the boom when it’s extended.

[@raymondw7875]

I truly enjoy the real-world content you produce. The challenges you work through are not sugar coated and not fixed by simply purchasing expensive parts. I can't get enough of this channel lately. Keep up the great work!

[@MonologueMusicals]

I just wanted to let Chris know how happy I am for his success. It takes a lot of patience and organization to bring us these videos. Most people have no idea how many hours of unused video you have to scrub through and sit on for a long time in order to put together a presentation like this. These aren't simple workman vlogs. There are dozens of other channels that are doing the same types of mechanic work, and the viewers can scroll back through this channels' earlier videos to see examples of the kind of vlogs everyone else is putting out today. It takes patience and organization to wait until a story has a beginning, middle, and end, skill to edit that story together.

[@NoNonsenseKnowHow]

Thanks so much for the kind feedback and yeah it definitely is a lot of work putting these type of videos together! Especially when you start putting in social life into the mix. It's hard to decide what to include and what not. Can't thank you enough for checking the videos out! Really appreciate the support

[@WagsAutomotive]

I used to work for the Police department and worked on those light bars all the time. Some advice for you: take the yellow covers off and polish them up with polishing compound. A lot of times you can make them look great and remove alot of the hazyness. Also, while you have them off, spray a squirt of PB into the ports on the electric Motors, and spray some lithium grease on the plastic gears that drive the rotating lights. Also remove the bulbs and lubricate the sockets. The bulbs should be halogen, but 50 amp 1156's will work as well. Cool truck!

[@freemansgarage]

I wrote all that down.

[@SkyWasYellowSunWasBlue]

You're a real mechanic. Logical, honest and knowledgeable. You'd make a hell of a neighbor! Thanks for the videos.

[@Mrminister28]

I grew up around wreckers like that, my dad had a garage/towing company with 4 trucks. Brings back memories, thanks. Keep the videos coming, I like a man who isn't afraid of hard work.

[@jdeno76]

I never got the whole ASMR thing, but when you go clanking around on the old cars and heavy equipment, it's very relaxing sounds lol Everything from a dry rotted line cracking, opening a squeaky door or just pulling dip sticks. Also I still watch in disbelief how quickly you analyze the state of a power and drive train and decide on a course of action. Great video as usual!

[@SkyOctopus1]

I really love watching a craftsperson plying their trade. I've no idea why X needs oiled, removed or changed, or where to even start diagnosing but seeing someone who really knows their stuff is a thing of beauty.

As a wrecker driver myself, I would love to see this thing fixed up and working again. The old square body wrecker is an icon of the towing industry.

Awesome old wrecker! I had an 87 K5 Blazer with that same 350 TBI engine. Man, that thing was a reliable beast! Had to sell her to make a couple house payments back in 08 so the wife and I could keep our house, still looking to replace it with another 87 or 88 K5. Those 350 TBI engines were so tough and reliable, maybe not a ton of power, but definitely got the job done....and still do! Thanks, bro, for another great rescue! Looks like you have a way to get more cool stuff home now. Love it! Oh, and major props to Jen for putting up with your obsession. I also found me a "car girl" and married her 18 years ago, so glad I did! Stay safe, brother.

DUDE I say keep this one. Put your talent into fixing it up and keep it for other builds to sell. This has your name all over it and it's your type of style as well. This is a real game changer on put coming project that you haven't even seen or thought of yet......

Truly amazing to watch. So much knowledge and skill, stumbled upon this channel a few week’s ago and haven’t been able to stop watching! For tyres pre 2000 the DOT still work’s except it’s a 3 digit not 4. Tyres made in the 80’s first 2 numbers are the week last number is the year, 90’s tyres are the same except they have an indent after the last number.

The longer the videos get I know the content is just better and better. Awesome job Chris 👍 love the channel

[@79tazman]

I hate when people cut up the video's and turn one video into a month with 20 minutes an episode. Junkyard Digs is bad for that stuff I would rather have it long like this only NNSNH, Mortske Repair and Sleeper Dude are the only ones that keep them long like this and I like it.

A little tip for you anytime you are working on a wreaker or flatbed with a wheel lift you can raise it up and put 4x4 blocks or something under it then lower it down to lift the back end of the truck. Saves you from even needing a jack.
