  • why didint u take the trailer?

  • good ole cummins, never let u down

  • just get it appraised and you can insure anything

  • should be able to get insurance, we have a 1955 and 1956 international trucks insured

  • If you ruin that truck by crushing it, or stripping parts from it just because it can't be insured, I'mma' have to kill somebody.

  • Nice video... Great old Truck

  • maximum overdrive!

  • I really hope you fix this wonderful lady up, restore her...love to see that beauty on the open road...

  • Man, that thing is massive and sounds soooooo good!

  • What a beautiful sound....smooth....

  • the old autocars are hard to kill we have old autocars with a flat bed body at the slate cory and we put 10 ton stone on the back day in day out

  • Rust doesn't make a machine ugly. It gives it character.

  • wht year is it and how many miles dose it have

  • Can't Kill an Autocar !

  • Nice old AC...

  • old or not it runs great :D

  • Ah copy that. I just sold the oldest one i had it was a 78 International transtar. It was loaded with all u needed for heavy hauling but safety lanes are just insane anymore

  • shoulda kept the trailer

  • @wetstackindiesel The trailer is still there.

  • wow wht a life of you pplz coooool love to be with u guyzzz

  • haha yea you can get insurance take it to a third world country like afghanistan, you will fit right in

  • we need more videos of this truck...

  • what year?

  • drop me a message if you care to i wouldnt mind putting it in with my collection............how much

  • man i dont care how old it is or if it dont even start i want it

  • I recommend getting a new insurance company I own 66 Mack and Progressive insured it no problem! And its commercial insurance! Hey if shes trouble Ill buy her off ya!

  • reminds me of the autocar out of maximum overdrive

  • Don't let a cool classic Autocar go to waste. Do what you can for the old girl.

  • this truck runs good does it drive?Why did'nt rain get in the exhaust and run the motor?

  • do you know how much torque this old girl has?

  • go through alstate or tripple A insurance they mill insure my old vehicals that are older

  • What year and model is this Autocar?

  • That's a really nice truck!

  • another professional lol

  • Gulfway insurance in floeida will insure it under their collector truck program. Thats where i have my antique white 9000 semi at. and its cheap.

  • @kansascat321 I have a 1951 Kenworth 2 axle semi that I am having a difficult time getting insurance for. If you follow the link on my YouTube channel page to my myspace page, you can see a pic of my truck. In California it's impossible to register a vehicle until it is insured. Do you think Gulfway Insurance could help me? The only other possibility I can come up with is to put my truck in California's assigned risk pool, but that would be extremely expensive.

  • @frazzledude I would sure recommend you contact them and see. They did a good job at a good price for me. Gulfway ins in florida. Im sure a google search will turn up a contact number for them. Good luck.

  • @kansascat321 Thank you very much. I'll give it a try.

  • Does that have the old leaf springs? I know, It's a stupid question. sounds great.

  • Yes that truck definetly has leaf springs. No air ride there

  • What do mean you cant get insurance?

  • Due to the truck being so old. The insurance company declined any coverage for it.

  • @DieselPowerTV but what about havin it registered as an antique or somethin like that ? like they do for hot rods and so

  • @DieselPowerTV Thats funny, i see one of these in Oakland daily hauling containers!

  • @DieselPowerTV May I ask what your jobs are? are you farmers? Scrap metal peeps? i mean whats the go!!!!!! or do you buy and fix old machinary to sell on?

  • @DjTommyKx Self-employed equipment operators with a large collection of caterpillars for doing jobs for the general public. We do scrap and fix these old machines if need be.

  • @DieselPowerTV why do i see so many of them on the road then?

  • @DieselPowerTV Have you tried checking with Gulfway or Nationwide? I have a 1956 White 9000TD and they said it would be roughly $700 per year for insurance on it. You should check into the American Truck Historical Society, they can help you get your A-Car on the the road again. I'm going to take a guess and say your truck is a early 60's model?

  • @teeter1939 Here in the Hawaiian Islands it's not uncommon to find trucks from the early 60's still on the road, plus the insurance is cheaper than brand new...

  • @TUTUZGARAGESERVICE Its the same way here in NC. There are several companies in my area that has entire fleets that are no newer than the mid 70s.

  • @DieselPowerTV how old is it?

  • @DieselPowerTV So basically you can't have vintage trucks, where you live?

  • @DieselPowerTV usually put blocks under the rails so its easier to get under next time

  • @DieselPowerTV Surely there's other insurance companies that would? Maybe not for commerce but for show and limited pleasure drives?

  • Do you have any plans for it?

  • these old autocars are rediculous.. my father used to drive one with a dump trailer.. the thing had the loudest jake break ive ever heard to date.. it was mean....

  • thanks for video of the ole A car my family used to run these ole A cars just like this one matter fact 2 of them Both Cummins Power NTC 350 (Turned to 400) & A 400 NTC Cummins Turned to 450 both 9spd Tandem Dumps w/ 16' beds
