how to repair windows 10
oh look another 2 hour video of yapping. next time do a 5 hour video.
glad i live in WA as that weather does not look much fun,dont know how you deal with that cold wet mess!!
The V8 flathead is purring nicely 👌
Ever tried C.L.R. to take the rust out it works on plumbing
Trade it for the eagle eye el camina
Where are the El Caminos? We all want more El Caminos! We demand more El Caminos. Every week. I know Duff doesn't care for them, but we all know how much you love them, Morticus.

Happy NY from Oz. Don't know how you live in that climate!
I was thinking I wonder if you dumped some rustoleum rust remover or the CLR flavor into the engine and ran it a few over heating cycles and let it sit for a few days if that would have eaten that rust up.
Hey Mortske 👋, I hope your New Year's gets better . Lots of ice and no power = no fun. Thanks for the video. It was great . Have a great week ahead 👍
Always learn from the old timers. They know things!
I like the video, but it would be better with an el camino in it.
Happy new year, Brent! The trucks looking great, and the bead roller turned out. Awesome!
Compressed air and the shop vac at the same time works great.
28 minutes in. So far, so good. Only an hour and 55 to go!
Happy New Year, Mort. Now that the holidays are over, can we all stop being so nice, and go back to ignoring each other? 😂
18:30 If ya can't find em, grind em 😂.
Early Ford flathead v-8s were defective castings . 1 bank was 46° the other 44° instead of being 45° . They ran but the defect was corrected sometime later 👍
Working on Bernie’s cousin.
1976 Ford F-250, Supercab, Short Bed, 2WD, 390, 4 speed, Light Blue.
It is a pretty nice truck, all 100% original.
It’s for sale if anyone is interested.
Better get a seat belt in there!!!!!!
Is that the 1st El Camino ?
Quick tip for any flathead. To remove the head take a 12" length of 1/4" cloths line and feed 1 length into every spark plug hole and spin her over. the head will be sitting an inch off the deck in no time. My project is a 1968 C10, all steel, cammed 5.3LS with a 700r4, 3:73 posi rear. Front disks, exhaust and the big one, the fuel system left to do once the weather breaks. I stuck with the FI, I've done it before on a couple swaps but going with an in-tank pump this time. Not hard, just time consuming. Hope to have it running down the boulevard by Memorial Day. Best laid plans …..
Excellent video Mortske 🙂 , Duff Dog 🐕, MOJO 🙂 also only thing that rust up on water problem you can try on next oil change use no synthetic type engine oil , plus before drain plug also oil use bottle of brand Red Seal GUNK put in engine for 5 or 10 mins have in engine oil plus motor running too then 5 or 10 mins up drain engine oil till stops to and do oil filter too ! See oil pan take more out too , also disstle water with Green Prestone Antifreeze 50/50 and put 200 ml of 80w90 differential fluid in rad run thru to! Also drain to after 1 hour drive too ! Also check Rad cap if rust or dirty soak in Vinegar 50% and Hot water 50% mix up together too! Before do Water and Antifreeze mix to running thru and bet help out on Vinegar and water mix running with engine running for 30 to 1 hour then drain it also do Antifreeze with Water to after! See what happens too and should help out ! Happy New Year 2024 Mortske & everyone too also !
ThermoCure is a product made by the same people who make EvapoRust. I use it and it really cleans the water jacket out. I use it every fall in my hot rods I run straight water in for the dragstrip.
Research it. It’s not too pricey
Should have done a quick vacuum then did a powerwash.but still. I love that truck. Sounds like an old bus…Just love it.
Puddin said you had an El Camino project in the works?
I'm working on a 74 ford Highboy . A previous owner had flipped the front axle to the top of the springs and removed the rear axle spacer blocks to replace them with a 1 inch variety. (Not sure why)I'm putting it back to a more original stance.
Saw another channel ( No Nonsense know How), use a sock end to form a cup on the intake to the rad to trap all the rust coming out a block and it worked real well ….run it for a couple miles at a time and dump the sock a few times….when it seemed he got it all he bought a proper filter you can insert at the same location in line !
Dead blow hammer on the vehicle ice. Works great. 👍
I would have saved a whole lot of time and devised an attachment for the shop vac to suck out that debriss
There was a ole timer lived around me in mi that drove a model A he ran kerosene for coolant in the winter said in worked great didn't freeze and kept his engine cle rust free.
Working on wiring the 351 in my 85 mustang. Would like to make some YouTube videos
