My grandad collected them in the 60 and 70's and I still have several in my barn along with many extra pieces and parts, numerous engines and cabs and I have worked on them my entire life and have two that I totally restored and drive occasionally. If you not help or parts let me know. Im always glad to help someone get another one goin again. Idk where you are but I can toss some parts in my truck and come help you get it going, i actually made a unit that runs off of a 5 ho lawnmower engine and i use it to turn the engine over to start it, takes ten minutes to hook to the engine. Start the mower engine and engage the clutch and the engine spins

Old truck's never die, because they was the grafters of this world like the horse's where 😅

It's pretty funny to think that during the WW2 this truck was already quite old-fashioned, although still a perfectly usable workhorse.

my neighbor had a 26 or8 Graham Bros truck he hauled boxes of fruit to the cannery until 1959. Jes been gone 40 yrs now but was a hell of a guy. He also hung a ford T axel for weight carry ability. It was held in by heavy wire and was an idler.

It is absolutely amazing that she still runs after 107 years! It is amazing after all ever single person that anything to do with her is has now past. From her engineers who designed her to her machinist that made her parts to the men who assemble her and the person or persons one who purchased her.

They didn't really know how to cut costs, didn't have too many long-term studies on durability, and left a ton of headroom with strength and toughness. It was so competitive at the time and couldn't afford to make a mistake anyway

The excitement of starting an old motor that hasn't run in decades never gets old! I restored a 1954 Johnson 10 hp outboard that hadn't been started since 1968 (needed new coils, points, plugs, carb rebuild, and water pump) and it fired off after two pulls. I ran around like an idiot yelling "Johnson! Johnson!" to no one for a minute. Ran like a champion thereafter!

I am always impressed, seeing all the Antique vehicles you stumble upon for your engine ressurection challenges! Hopefully, some of them you feature will get full restoration. At this stage, these pieces of collection belong to a museum... Good luck on your Cuda's reconstruction, as well =)

Theses Federal trucks were used in New Mexico to chase Pancho Villa into Mexico.

My grand father drove a federal truck back in the 1920s .this vedio made me smile and think about him.he was a character sure miss him.he had some good stories.great job man.

My pops had a mid 1930's Federal truck. There wasn't much leftover after years sitting in Ohio, he was just all about the history and stories that came with the trucks.

That is one AWESOME old truck you've got there, it would be great to see her driving around once you get the parts for her 👍

At 14:47 ,no way! She cranked over. I was as stunned as you. That's crazy.

I love seeing this old stuff. I'm 60 and my daddy born and raised in Arkansas. Dropped out of school first grade but he could fix anything. Mechanical and own numerous gas stations and did the mechanic work! He could go from Arkansas to Oregon leaving with 65 cents coming back with a truck. It was only a year old just on barter and work ! Kudos to old school mechanics. God rests their souls

I can’t help but smile when I see you get one of these old vehicles running after so many years of neglect. Your attitude and sense of humor make your videos worth watching even when they don’t run.

It sure is fun watching you get these old timers going again.Keep on wrenchen buddy and a big shout out from Tennessee !

Really enjoy your video, especailly with old trucks and cars, I am into Antique and seeing them coming back to life, for a 107 years old sounds good. thank you again for bring and antique back to life.

Amazing, man! Just incredible to see this 107 year old engine turn over and come to life. You're right, "she wants to live", and I'm sure that she will now. Cheers from Texas.

What a damn good mechanic 👨‍🔧

I pulled my 85 z from a eureka springs car graveyard 2 years ago after it was abandoned for 17 years, less rust than I ever expected 😁

You are the only channel I know of that does revivals on stuff this old. It's so cool to see something that has been around for so many generations fire back to life as if it was only sleeping. I hope there's more of this in the works, I love seeing it!

I think you’re the only person that has successfully got a 100 year old vehicle to revive successfully on KZread. I was cheering you on when you did the Cadillac, but this was so much more accomplishing. It even ran good. You’ve battled more with 40 year old cars that only sat for 10 years.

Just never gets old seeing these old machines run 👍😁

Seriously, your channel is pretty damn awesome. I’ve seen you delete two cylinders and make a motor run. BOSS!!! You are a bad ass!

Can't believe you got it running without catching the thing on fire first. Well done!

Son, that old motor runs pretty darned good. It would be good to take steps to preserve it.

I wish my Grandpa was around to see these videos... He'd love them! I know I sure do. Keep up the amazing work, brother!

These ole motors were tough. Good job again.

what a treat I love watching you bring back these brass era cars no one else focuses on these like you do.

Magnetos will lose magnetism after sitting for a long time. Remagnetising them was a common thing once. It sounded like the mag starting impulse was clicking just fine too.

That's so awesome that you got that 1916 Federal motors truck running!.....

Would love to see more on this ol gal she's a runner, I loved when she fired I actually got excited that she wants to live. You definitely brought her back to life. Rig a carburetor for her I know you can do it. Also build a seat or cab get er going!! Great job bub hopefully seeing a new episode on ER soon

Absolutely inspirational work. It would be incredible to get an old motor running with little cost, just encyclopedic knowledge and effort.

Cool video. Good to see old stuff still able to run. They made good engines back in the day

when it comes to will it run men,you are at the top.great videos.

I always look forward to a new post from you. Loved this one. Thank you.

You might not see this but that engine might not even have a water pump. A lot of old trucks and tractors had what is called a "Thermosiphon" System and the hot water would rise to the top of the radiator and get cooled instead of having a pump do that.

Those early engines are so utterly simple and yet run so well. In 1977 I had a 42 chevy panel truck with a flat head six-cylinder engine. When idling it was so quiet you didn't even know it was running.

Looking forward to the next video 👍
