Will it run? Sitting in the woods for years. A 65 Chevy C30!!!

When taste testing fuel filters folks always have some fine Kentucky whiskey handy to handle the after taste..

Great restoration project. Your so blessed getting this old Iron running again. Thanks for sharing! 💯❤️

Success-nicely done! I really like these will it start/resurrection videos!

That sure looks like a factory bed to me, I’ve seen, driven and worked on and even helped replace the wood floor on one of those. Chevrolet & GMC trucks factory beds were just like that

Great job getting her to fire up! 👍👍 That will make a very challenging, but very rewarding project for getting back on the road. Can't wait to see how she progresses😎

The flatbed was a dealer install option when you purchased the chassis cab they didn't offer a regular bad on one ton trucks like modem trucks have

As a rule on those old trucks and cars if the numbers are all perfectly aligned that is original miles.

Recommend having a machine shop rework the head with stellite exhaust valves, hardened valve seats, and bronze valve guides so unleaded gasoline doesn't cause exhaust valve recession. That engine will be working very hard to move that big truck, so exhaust valve recession is highly likely on a mid 60's head like that!

Richard love looking at all your videos just started watching I

Yes sounds need light fix up then be running excellent also think motor should be 292 6 cylinder not 230 or 250 be to small for and that carb be Cater 450 to 650 CFM and hand choke cable knob dash hook or disconnected!

oh you got the good trk the one with the 4 spd manual trans

Staggered motor mounts would ID as 292. 6” side cover 292 4” side cover 230/250

Great video! Your camera person does a fantastic job!

Camara man not talking, what a pleasure !!

The bypass hose indicates that the engine is a 292. I have a '66 Suburban with the same engine, and I had it running easily after sitting for 30 years.

We own several of those 64 thru 66 trucks. I noticed a few things. the PCV is unhooked. That could be the cause of the moisture in the valve cover. Possibly the pinched vacuum line is supposed to be hooked to the vacuum advance? Thats a later exhaust & intake manifold. And there is a governor under the carb. Most likely a 250 cubic inch engine. We used a 64 chevy with a 250 and granny low 4 speed for several years as a wrecker. and the little six pulled several tremendious loads. and it did not guzzle fuel like the larger 292 sixes do.

Greetings from Scotland. Just about to watch the video. Looking forward to it. This looks a challenge…we shall see. Cheers

I love C30 and bigger! I love that you save this thing. Wish there was something around here, like that.

It is common for the230 and 250 engine block to crack internally the oil and coolant will mix together

Mines been doing that for 20 years. Everybody says it's normal. It don't use oil so I don't worry about it. Great video.
