Free Small Block Chevy Engine!!! Except it's FAILED in a way I've never seen before! Is it Junk?!?
Переглядів 39 тис.19 годин тому
A local subscriber gave us a free 350 Chevrolet engine hoping we could use it. The story was that they had it running in a mud truck and replaced it with a more powerful engine. We got it fired up but noticed there was an issue so lets tear into it and see what we can save! As always, thanks for watching!

My 2013 Ram Megacab came stock with a 31 gallon fuel tank. When pulling my 40 foot gooseneck I could get down to 4MPG at times and getting into smaller fuel stations with a 40' trailer isn't ideal so let's upgrade to a 52 gallon aftermarket tank to try and reduce our fuel stops when on the road and hopefully avoid having to pull into smaller stations that aren't as friendly for larger rigs!

Theres a couple places on ebay that sell original vintage 76 antenna balls & they have the ones with the gas pump handle on the side .

    Wonderful to see a commercial truck in such amazing condition after 50 years, quite a find! My father had a custom truck body, equipment, and semi trailer business in the 70's-90's and worked on and sold Fruehauf semi trailers. Fruehauf was the big player with a history of producing unique truck equipment and bodies. I am thinking the wrecker body may have been built by Fruehauf to Holmes specs and outfitted by Holmes with their wrecker equipment, but??? Not uncommon in the truck equipment business for specialty designs. Also, dad had a 1975 F150 Custom "family shop truck" that we had for 20+ years. My brother and sister and I eventually learned to drive on that truck and remember well that dash! I remember doing bodywork and prepping it for paint at the shop at one point later in its life. Thanks for the father's day memory. Hope Duff opens some hoods for you on Fathers Day.
