You mentioned bleeding the brakes and clutch by yourself. I figured that one out a couple of years ago,fish tank airline/bubbler tubing. Walmart sells clear plastic tubing the right size to push on the bleeders and reach from the rear passenger side of my crew cab and reach all the way up to the master cylinder. I push one end on my bleeder and run the other end back into my master cylinder so that it’s submerged in fluid. I’ve also had good luck using just a few feet of the same tubing run into an extra brake fluid jug by the wheel cylinder I’m working on. Running it back to the master cylinder is a little easier for me though since I can see the air and fluid go past me and back to the master cylinder while I’m pumping the brakes. Works awesome and I can stay in the seat till all the air is gone,only have to go back and forth to go to the next wheel.

My dad had an old Ford Cabover from the same era, and it had a cab release at the back of the cab that when released allowed some assist springs to lift the cab about 1/3 the way up, making raising the cab easie,r then when returning it to its locked down position, you had to pull down on the cab to compress the assist springs and engage the locking mechanism.

I never tire of Kevin's Revival video's. I think it's because we are watching a man really enjoying what he is doing. Same enthusiasm as in the Possum in the Fiat video, the one that made me discover this channel.

Reminds me of my '62 step side. Sat in a neighbor's yard for 45 years. Pulled it to the house, checked the oil, sprayed the cylinders, jumped it from my van and it was running in about an hour. That carb is probably original, and would be a stock replacement even if it isn't. If you have to time a gas IH SV-8, it times off cylinder 8, Not 1. And it uses gears instead of a chain. You can get both of those master cylinders, at about $450 apiece. The clutch slave is cheaper because it was used on light line trucks also, likely under $100. You can get rebuild kits for all of them, or be like me and use heat shrink and ingenuity. As to the engine c.i.d. there are choices, a SV-8 304 or 345, or a LV-8 401, 461, or 478. There's a bossed face behind the generator, I Think, that has the designation. They're great trucks, you'll play hell trying to kill them, if you do try, because they're made for maximum output in all quarters all day long and all night if you can keep up.

Please get this amazing man and Mook to a million😊

@Norwindian In the UK In the mid sixties, you could buy four gallons for one pound Sterling. The exchange rate at the time was around two dollars US, to one pound Sterling. So US petrol was effectively half the price of the UK. Plus the fact that wages were much higher in the US.

Kevin I bought a reman holley ( by colt industries) and you are so right. it was 2 barrel similar to the one you have there for a Buick 3.8 even fire motor from the early 1980s. This what was wrong with it. The throttle shaft was twisted just slightly so one plate didn't close. the accelerator pump didn't work and it didn't idle because the metering block was full of white media blasting sand and the base wasn't flat. It had a tag on it and hadn't come out of the box since it left the factory. it came via a local supplier. He took the carb back and couldn't get me another one quickly. So he replaced the acc pump with the correct one took it apart and cleaned a the metering block out and fitted a better suited power valve, straightened the throttle shaft and had the base machined flat at no cost to me. That was a long time ago. Lately i've been fitting new carbs form Edelbrock . You bolt them on, attach the cable, fuel hose, the choke. you start it. It runs and idles. Check the timing, drive it for 10 minutes reset the idle and its done and no come backs for faults so far. I've fitted 5 so far and i'm happy.

I can already tell this is gonna be epic. Love you guys!

“But I made transoline fluid” lmfao

Dude, that is an understated lovely old truck - great find! A tip on the Hayes-type split-rim, cast-centre wheels: check the torque on the rim clamping bolts. If there’s any jacking between the wheel centre to rim pads around the bolts, it’s worth stripping them down and flattening things so they fit flat and will hold torque. Reason: a friend had a European Fiat truck on similar wheels. One day he had to brake hard and the tyres gripped but the rim clamps didn’t. Both rims on the front axle rotated around the wheel centres, chopped the valve stems off and left him at the roadside with two flat tyres and a really good story 🙂

Love old trucks, these guys have just been waiting for a litlle love. They worked hard, time to give them some attention!

Great job Kevin. Nice rebuild on the carburetor. Learning a lot from you.

That old binder ran pretty damn good. I see you can buy intakes and cams and such for that engine, I assume it is valve float that is really limiting for them. I wonder if you did head work, how much performance you can get. Would the bottom end stand up to a few pounds of boost? Slap a blow through system with a Holley Sniper?I mean I know they are heavy as sin but wouldn't a boosted Travelette dropped with some bags be a cool Power Tour ride.

I remember those trucks back in the day my dad's a retired Teamster and he used to drive those conventional and cabover day cabs haven't seen one of many years except those are dump trucks you have thanks for the video👍👍🇺🇸

18:29 Hm, I knew that fuel would vaporize. I think there's different conditions though. My zero turn(Kohlerr CV750) likes some choke if I start it after it was hot. I assume it vaporized some of the fuel instead of puddling in the carb like that. Probably different designs suffer from different problems (if any, depending on the model). My briggs motors are less prone to that. The 84 dodge pickup we used to have never started hard hot, but fuel liked to drain back so it sure hated starting cold. I had a procedure that worked pretty well, two pumps and to set the choke, crank it, two pumps, usually fired off, if not I'd hold the throttle wide open. I suppose an electric Mr Gasket Autozone fuel pump would've helped in hindsight. This was back before I knew much about that engine or engines in general. My dad was not happy because (and being an aircraft, truck, and car mechanic for 60+ years) he knew it should not be that hard to start, but I guess he wasn't motivated enough to fix it. He kinda got tired of vehicles fighting him after so long. Still an electric fuel pump might've been the easy solution. In hindsight my procedure required some cranking probably because it was an engine driven fuel pump.

I haven't seen the whole video but I'm guessing that's probably a 345. Hey remember they used to have commercials back in the day where they would have the 2-ton trucks next to a scout and I think it said something along the lines of they put the big motor from the big truck in the scout. Some guessing it's probably going to be a 345 or 392

The cab reminds of the Bedford TK that was popular in the UK. That cab was bolted down and the only access to the engine was via lift up panels at the rear of the cab. You are lucky your working on a tilt cab, and access to the engine is easy. Cheers, Paul.

Like I told you when we met in Norwalk, I love that your channel inspires the "average hooligan" to not be afraid to work on sh** and enjoy it!!! When I did the revival of the "Intercamino" on my channel, it had a carb nearly identical to this on the 345 and we had a leaky accelerator pump (which I replaced) and gaggle of other issues that made it run like poo... I wish I had seen this video before then cause I'm literally watching this thinking, "Damn I coulda rebuilt that carb and had way more fun with my monster truck El Camino on an International truck chassis if I could have made it run better!" 😂 It worked-ish and is still working as a temporary carb for my 68 GMC revival so it is what it is... Moral of the story is you just continue to inspire! Check out the channel if you get a chance and as always thank you for the awesome content and inspiration! 🤘🤘🤘

I’m remember driving one of these when it was new. The column shifter was a challenge when new but after the truck had more kms the gear change was like pin the tail on the donkey. This motor should be a 392 but it’s a lighter duty truck so it might be a 345. I’m not saying it was a fantastic engine but at the time GMC was selling offering a V6 and Chevy’s small block was limited on power. Ford offered a decent truck/motor and so did Dodge but IH had a long reputation of building trucks and the 345/392 was kind of a small/big block. FYI International has made a 4 cylinder that was half of a 304. The distributor app was virtually the same but 4 posts were blocked off. It was actually a very reliable motor. I had a Scout with one.

When I see old vehicles sitting for a long time there is always weeds and briars growing around them! Must be nice to have a clean work environment!

I just got one of these trucks the other day!! Mine is a 1966 co1800, gonna be fixing it up to use as a work truck to pull my gooseneck trailers! The carb on mine is leaking from everywhere, so I’ll be doing the same carb rebuild.
