itd be a hell of a lot cheaper to just buy a small section of brake line and some hose clamps and hose to fix the plow leak and brakes then to keep buying fluid every time you wanna use the thing. just a thought. the oil leak is whatever, but the other 2 are quick fixes. also, having brakes is nice while plowing. good to see u keep the thing running though, that busted plow light adds character
mother shapiro is a real nice looking plow truck those old dodge are the best when its time to work hey i madew myself a mother shapiro plow truck but alot smaler you can go see my video on it its short but its there @ mecanicman66 thx keep the good vids coming man
Typical old Dodge. Body rot away on ya but the ol' 318 doesn't know the word quit. Throw a quart of oil and some gas in the tank and she's more than happy.
Out of gas? Pour some Goombay smash into the tank. Lord knows how many times I've driven (plowed) down the Killington access road after a night at Mother Shapiros!!
I still have my '82 Dodge W150 in the driveway, with Meyer plow. It stopped running this year. It's had no brakes for the past decade due to frame rot, so I used it to clear my driveway and private road since then. It was a good truck for the first 4 years of ownership, then at 37K miles, it needed a complete engine overhaul. Hydraulic leaks, transmission leaks, rust, frame ready to collapse. Not really worth fixing now, so mine will probably go to scrap yard soon. May sell plow separately.
a few hundred dollars and a couple days work and you could eliminate all your pre plow prep work. gotta take care of the ones that take care of you!! the old girl looks like she earned it! nice vid!
hi i observed this vid mths ago. just getting back um i own a myers unit what kind of oil do i use you seem good at this. i figuerd you were the best to ask. also nice vid. im thinking of posting my first vid. would be a 74 gmc. hope you may be able to answer question at conviece thanks
Cool video, excellent editing and the music is perfect. I love those old power wagons, rusted up to the door handles and they still keep on going, 'til you have throw the anchor out.
I agree. Old trucks never die. And old cars will be live longer than new ,,electronic cars´´ . The man on Video is likable and his old school dodge is true plowtruck... Music is great, strain. I realy want pickup with plow!
Ah,I don,t think you'll ever get a job as a safety inspector.You could work for the local dodge dealer though,I would say.Redneck?only in a good way.Funny,easygoing,nice guy,yes.Back to the basics we all forget.That is why this vid is a feel gooder.GREAT job and thanks for sharing it.Nice to see there are still some simple,well grounded ,fun loving folks out there.Again THANKS
Now that's a video. Good editing, looks unrehearsed, (probably is) ...a leak in the brakes, don't let that stop you....I missed that until "get it" then I got it. Funny.
Now that's what I like. No foolishness or insincerity. Just a clean video in good taate with a fellow who's lived a while and knows what he's doing and he's a wise man, enjoys the simpler things. But he's got a kickass rig there and a lot of experience to handle it and keep it well. This is an 'old school' video. I can appreciate his intention. Nice.
trans fuild works for plows but its no good when it gets to cold or watter in it, plow with trans fuild will move real slow then its time to change it . nice plow truck i had a 88 dodge ram 318 great truck bad leaf springs tho .ficher plows = garbage!

I have had both dual and single wheel. I prefer the single. Much easier to handle. Either way a good snow tire is needed.
