  Man that truck is phenomenal.  I dont care what anybody says, Id rather work and hang out with older mechanics.  They were just built differently and the knowledge you can learn from them is not taught ANYWHERE else. And I dont care who you are, you're not gonna tell better stories than an old mechanic. Mad respect to them.

  Imagine that. A long time ago someone picked that truck up brand new and thought, this is the most modern thing on the road. Amazing

  I don't mind seeing older cars/trucks given the ratrod/hotrod treatment, but I feel like this Diamond-T deserves to be left original, if possible, even with the current patina and signage it still has on it.  Just get it running, make it safe, and enjoy it.  You just don't see many of those around.  Such a cool old truck!!

  It warms my heart to actually see someone use flare nut wrenches. I watch a ton of these videos and see guys all the time trying to break loose lines that have been on for eons with an open end wrench or worse yet an adjustable wrench. But, I'm not surprise because you've got a couple of old guys who have been around the block. Hats off to your mechanics. Keep up the great work. I love your videos.

  Hot rod this? Hell no. It's gorgeous as it is & I would daily drive the thing to work, maybe even road trip & sleep in that basket.

  Original!!Back in the 1950s I had to grind my valves myself on model T using a rubber suction cup stuck to the end of a stick rotated between your hands with grinding compound on it. Talk about a long process
