Will it start? FORGOTTEN 1964 GMC farm truck

[@stevemccoy8138]

Great idea, I'll be there watching you rebuild this here rig ! 10-4 😊

[@jameswhite2198]

It must be really gratifying to be able to get something running that hasn’t ran in 20yrs I wish I had that mechanical ability props

[@warrenklingensmith1241]

J T your videos make me chuckle.

[@zomaardan]

Awesome. This channel is underrated. KZbin you hear?

[@Wolfhound327]

Hello from the Lansing Mi area!

[@AndrewHCann]

Excellent video I say fix up in steps for future videos too and looking forward more videos too soon watch on this old 1964 GMC truck too!

[@deborahwebb3598]

JT my husband loves you videos!!!

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

That is awesome! Thanks!

[@narisse89]

Very good video I enjoyed it thank you Chris

[@Nudnik1]

I had one with a 478 M v6 excellent motors . Nice work 👍 Stromberg Carburetor s.

[@jerryglassmeyer2853]

Great job on getting the truck running. It will make a good green truck for you. And I also love the square body Chevy with the old manual shift.

[@vernegriffis5457]

Thanks for sharing another video yours are the best!

[@CJPhillips6648]

Beautiful grain truck!

[@ezrawhite8565]

Really liked this, some fun to watch content and just subscribed

[@jorgealfaiate]

That case on the side with duals looks really good :)

[@billlloyd9142]

Good video JT, looks like you gonna have you a good grain truck.

[@Thomasfarmstn]

We still use a 72 GMC tandem on our farm. Still a fairly tight old truck. I liked that Magnum. I’ve got an 8940 myself. Thanks for sharing!

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

This old rig seems pretty tight the more I go through it. Hopefully she’ll give me a few years of good service. Thanks for watching!

[@Ray-lo4hr]

I love that cat. Canada.

[@scottblodgett1536]

What’s your price tag on that pick up?

[@bombardier3qtrlbpsi]

If it's all right with you I hit the like button 👍

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

Totally alright with me 😉

[@marvincook4543]

"Sweet Fluffy" !

[@davescouten7813]

Before I even watch your video it will start if you’re working on it🍺

[@SchnelleKat]

I like the square body! Charcoal interior huh? Fck that's hard to find. I just bought an 86 GMC k1500 just for the interior. I Love the 1955-66 style 1-ton and bigger trucks. WOAH 401 V6... now that's rare nowadays!!!

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

Thanks! I’ll bet that 401 has better torque numbers than the 454 in the square 😉. I like the big truck. The ol gal has some character!

[@SchnelleKat]

@@jtsbarnngrill6873 You could be right on those TQ numbers. That's the Pros about em and also pretty bulletproof to kill. cons is not much for "Readily" available parts. Most would be NOS stuff. Reasonably priced too. GL on it and looking forward to more.

[@prevost8686]

@@SchnelleKat They’re better truck engines than the latter 454 engines. As long as you don’t rev the snot out of them and add ZDDP to the oil they will outlive the body of the truck.

[@JamesFales-t5y]

C00L !!

[@Fieldman12]

Love the Magnum in the video. That grain truck will come in handy. Is that orange i see in the weeds on the left an Allis grill on a tractor?

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

It is! I believe that was a wd-45 but I didn’t look that close

[@haroldswick9962]

Good common sense approach to this problem.

[@deanbrown4512]

Those unipoints weren't available when 64 made this truck, they didn't come into being till 72 i think

[@skipstein744]

Onward!

[@cynthiatrombley4325]

Great video, JT. What I would like to know is can I put salmon directly on the grill, or should I use foil? Had some trouble with it sticking.

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

Oil the grates and put it directly on. It will make taste better😉

[@Franisboche]

How did you get started in farming? Also, what fuel pump are you using?

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

I grew up a farm kid, always wanted to keep at it after my father sold the farm in the 90s, so with a little hope, lotta hard work and some luck I was able to get back at it about 10 years ago. That is a mr gasket 4-7 psi electric pump

[@ashleythompson5550]

Luv it

[@peterandersen1378]

Is that husk broom a GM “dealer only” tool? Is that an imperial or metric husk cleaner upper?🇨🇦👍🏻🤪

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

That is an imperial 😆😆

[@jeffhack6839]

JT. Just watching this episode now!! Waht happened to that black beat??? Inquiring minds need to know!!! Sidebar: You need that high end creeper!! Cheers.

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

That’s an oldie lol. Black Betty is still good and used daily!

[@jeffhack6839]

@@jtsbarnngrill6873 Ram Jam. Ah, those one hit wonders!! Cheers.

Get fluffy to do a full cat scan on it, I’m sure she will give you a “to do” list for it. 🤞

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

Indeed! She has been crawling all over it for a day now. She’s had a lot to say about it 😆

[@mikeduffy7271]

The only parts I can get my wife to watch is when fluffy appears.

[@gleanerk]

Yessir I follow,happy to hear it run ! Tandem or single rear axle? Dump ?

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

Tandem dump. 500 bushel box ready to rock 😆

[@lewiemcneely9143]

@@jtsbarnngrill6873 I remember well the 478 Toro-flo diesels that were in those rigs around that time. Uncle had a 'G' model Prentice loader mounted on the back of a tandem with a 5x3. Good old trucks. That'll make a good hauler.

[@prevost8686]

You’re probably better off cleaning up the old points. The quality of the Wuhanian points sold today leaves a lot to be desired. Thanks for the video.

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

I believe that to be 100% true! These will probably last a long time. They weren’t burned up badly

[@berhorst59]

If its a 401 magnum, its not the original engine. Magnum engines weren't introduced til model year 1966.

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

Well, it’s a definitely a 401. And tagged a 401 in the id card in the cab. And tagged a 64 in the cab. Might not be a magnum though.

[@bobsookochoff5299]

I have read that a good mechanic has about the same fund of knowledge and deductive ability as a physician. As a physician, farmer, half assed metal worker and lousy mechanic I disagree. People basically come in 2 flavors, guys and gals, with a few stragglers in between, whereas the variability in old equipment that doesn’t run seems pretty much close to infinity. Don’t know how you do it, but I enjoy your challenges and your humor and might have learned enough from you to become marginally more dangerous.

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

Thank you very much! I appreciate that, and glad I can help you on new challenges!

[@AutoCrete]

Your points gaping isn't accurate. A match book cover is 11 thou. BTW I was taught that as correct plug gap for a Merlin Aircraft engine.

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

Maybe we’re using different matches… 😆.

[@warrenklingensmith1241]

I'll bet you didn't know a G M C is referred to as a gay man's Chevy.
