Chevy C-30 Wrecker Sitting For Years Will It Run? - NNKH

This 1988 Chevy C-30 Tow Truck has been sitting for years however I'm told it ran/worked when parked. Let's see what she needs to become operational again.

Thanks so much for watching and I hugely appreciate any channel support. Thank you!

Thanks so much everyone for checking out the video and dropping feedback below! Greatly appreciate it and definitely a future video coming on this wrecker. Also huge thank you to you guys who have commented on other Detailer YouTube channels about maybe collaborating with the 1974 Torino Elite. If you get a chance, leave a comment on your favorite detailing Channel like WD or AMMOnyc about them doing the NNKH Elite and maybe we can make this happen! Thanks!!!

I truly enjoy the real-world content you produce. The challenges you work through are not sugar coated and not fixed by simply purchasing expensive parts. I can't get enough of this channel lately. Keep up the great work!

I love the fact that you brought back a service rig. Nobody really does that very often. They deserve love too. It's nice to see somebody save one.

[SkyWasYellowSunWasBlue]

You're a real mechanic. Logical, honest and knowledgeable. You'd make a hell of a neighbor! Thanks for the videos.

I grew up around wreckers like that, my dad had a garage/towing company with 4 trucks. Brings back memories, thanks. Keep the videos coming, I like a man who isn't afraid of hard work.

I just wanted to let Chris know how happy I am for his success. It takes a lot of patience and organization to bring us these videos. Most people have no idea how many hours of unused video you have to scrub through and sit on for a long time in order to put together a presentation like this. These aren't simple workman vlogs. There are dozens of other channels that are doing the same types of mechanic work, and the viewers can scroll back through this channels' earlier videos to see examples of the kind of vlogs everyone else is putting out today. It takes patience and organization to wait until a story has a beginning, middle, and end, skill to edit that story together.

I really love watching a craftsperson plying their trade. I've no idea why X needs oiled, removed or changed, or where to even start diagnosing but seeing someone who really knows their stuff is a thing of beauty.

I love how every time you bring something home, Jen is just as interested in it as you are.

I used to work for the Police department and worked on those light bars all the time. Some advice for you: take the yellow covers off and polish them up with polishing compound. A lot of times you can make them look great and remove alot of the hazyness. Also, while you have them off, spray a squirt of PB into the ports on the electric Motors, and spray some lithium grease on the plastic gears that drive the rotating lights. Also remove the bulbs and lubricate the sockets. The bulbs should be halogen, but 50 amp 1156's will work as well. Cool truck!

I never got the whole ASMR thing, but when you go clanking around on the old cars and heavy equipment, it's very relaxing sounds lol
Everything from a dry rotted line cracking, opening a squeaky door or just pulling dip sticks. Also I still watch in disbelief how quickly you analyze the state of a power and drive train and decide on a course of action. Great video as usual!

[scottcreesy]

Gotta hand it to you, you've been pumping out great content quickly! This has become my favorite out of all the channels

[eddiehumphreys]

Really enjoy what you do and your editing is spot on as well, real joy to see you bring all this cool stuff back to life. Not only the vehicles but all th old cool USA made stuff. Keep up the great work man thanks

[matthewjohnston]

Thanks! I’ve watched the entire Chevy C-30 wrecker series and thoroughly enjoyed it.

[paulzj]

That truck turned out amazing I was so shocked how good it cleaned up, also that air jack is sick!

[frankroberts]

I watched the whole thing and i hav ta say that this is a very good rescue, thru the yrs ive bought and rescued alot of trucks, this one empresses me to no end. now you have something to tow with, and if you dont want to you can always sell it for decent money.

[ILOVEBACONBOY]

I find these will it run videos simply awesome, very cool seeing those things get at least another start after sitting idle for so long.

[spookydascary]

Messed up that guy just blocked you and said nothing. You're a real humble guy. 🙏 Love the channel!

[grosbeakmc]

Hey Chris, thanks for sharing this with us. Great job saving that C-30. Bummer about that guy that ghosted you on the sale - it takes all kinds! I really enjoy your videos and look forward to more.

[manuelvalls]

[carlaustin]
