Finally got my '59 Gmc running correctly
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o2RPD6DSpZc
I put a new gas tank in it,hooked all of the lines up and it fired right up.I then drove it all around my area. The new Zenith carb helped big time as well

Re: Finally got my '59 Gmc running correctly
Well in all honesty the video is a little rough, but the truck sounded pretty good for not running in 30 years! It's always nice to bring things back from the dead. The more you run it the happier it will be. Best of luck with it my friend.

Yeah, my cell phone is horrible. I mean it has ran for the last 4 years, but not like it should. Now it will run on its on

Re: Finally got my '59 Gmc running correctly
Is the "miss" an exhaust leak? I assume it is running smoothly based on your comments. Good progress, now on to the body work....

Re: Finally got my '59 Gmc running correctly
the muffler isn't welded on and I think the flange gasket is bad
the steering is really good as well I found someone to do the welding
