Did the non snow engine present any problems? I picked up three of these machines in the last year, two with bad engines, one with a pin broken in the drive train. Bought a 1550 blown briggs snow engine, swapped out the crank on a generator engine and used the parts to make a snow engine out of...

Nice video, what a tribute! He must have been one of the early lineman. I am sure the equipment has changed but would still be hard work in all kinds of weather. A friend of mine was a lineman who died tragically in a car accident in 2002. Was buried in his blue jeans and local electric coop ...

Make sure the carburetor is clean, then add an inline filter. An engine that will run until it warms up and stops can also be caused by a bad ignition coil. They can do strange things. You must have had some very poor service. I had a 1032 JD from 1979 until last year. Had engine trouble the...

I am 53 and had one of these when I was 18, drove it year round in ND. Now have another one I am trying to finish up. Is that the whine of a cam gear drive I hear on deceleration? What cam is in it?

Awesome! We had a Columbia house record subscription when I was a kid. We had the first edition's greatest hits as well as many others that became classics Didn't realize Mac Davis wrote this, he wrote many other hits he didn't perform himself..

Bought a 11530 Poulan Pro last year, like the blow, needs more power. Hope to replace the 250cc Briggs with a 342. Smooth running easy starting engine.

I have a 53 that has been in the family since I was a kid, just sitting outback pleading to do something with. Would love to do a project like this but I would have to stick with a mopar engine. Mine is a 1/2 ton and the same color as this one originally.

Runs sweet, interesting idea on the battery. Tho original too small battery in the passenger floor was a pain in the neck.

Nice old truck, very nice to see that you stayed with the mopar engine. I have a 53 pickup that has been in the family since I was a kid. Just sitting in the trees waiting for me to do something with it.

what does it have for a cam?

What cam did you go with? I am considering this engine for my Super Bee.

I know this guy, have seen it at some local car cruises
