Abandoned Truck Cut Out Of Texas Jungle After 30 Years - Rescued 1977 Datsun 620 - RESTORED

Looks like there's a bunch to pick from out here. Yeah a lot. Stuff all over the place. It's all pretty grown up too though. Yeah looks like the further you go the thicker it gets. I think there's over a hundred vehicles just in this spot right here. Oh wow. Lots should be about back here though. I think it's tucked up behind this old ford here. I don't know what's gonna be our best way of getting it out of here forward or backwards. I said it's pretty grown up but it's a lot of just small stuff. Pretty cool old truck though. Yeah it is. Still has the hubcaps on this side. Yeah. Seems to be fairly straight but looks pretty rusty too. Yeah the tow hitch. Yeah I don't know if that's a good thing or not. Either hauled it behind something for traveling or she wasn't running the grate or something. That was my next guess was had the tower everywhere you had to go. Oh man yeah it's rusted out on this bed side over here. Pretty bad. Right there where that split's at. Got stuff growing in the bed. That's always a good sign. Yeah. I'm sure we'll have to take these down and I bet this old work rack is going to hang on just about everything. Probably right. Vines and limbs. Good thing is though most of everything around it's small so. Right. Easy to cut down. I mean they're going to clear it out anyways so. Right. I bet these tires will take air. Let's see what it looks like on the back side. I said I don't know if we need to come forward or backwards with it. Right. I want to say maybe backwards might be our best bet. Yeah other than that big old attachment. Right. That don't seem that heavy. Movable so. Yeah I bet we could just probably trim these little ones right here. Yeah. I don't think we'd have to get that one. Less stuff to hang on the top like you said that rack well it goes. Get it to try to pull out backwards and as long as it man hopefully the brakes ain't locked up on it but if it'll steer it'll kind of drag even if they are. Now getting the trailer back here that's going to be a whole nother deal. I'm not trying to see what that tag said on it. I can't make out if that's 80 or 90. I think we need to make a game plan of getting the truck back here we can unload some tools and and then we're just going to have to drag it plum out of here and get the you know loaded on the trailer out there. Yeah out there. Because there's no way we'll make that trailer back this far. So once again we stumbled across another good honey hole out here. I mean there are hundreds of old vehicles that have just been left for dead out here in these woods. We picked up this old Datsun truck fairly cheap but it's going to be a lot of work to get it up out of here. So a lot of these trees are pretty small so we'll get the chainsaw out cut them out where we can actually move the truck from where it's sitting. Hopefully these old tires will take some air but the problem is there's just so much stuff out here I'm not going to be able to get my truck and trailer back here. So we're just going to try to get my truck back here, hook a chain to it, pull it out to where we can get access to the trailer and then hopefully load it on after that. Looking better. Looking a little better. Yeah I don't know. Probably just hook my hook a chain to that with my truck and pull that out of the way. We've got some on the other side we're going to have to get but I can probably get them with this pole saw for the most part. Okay. I may need your chainsaw. A couple of these are a little bigger. I think that's about got it. Looks a lot clearer. Yeah. I think we need to try to get this old attachment pulled out of the way now. Right. Maybe move a little bit of these limbs and I'll just drag it wherever we can drag it I guess. Okay. Then maybe try to shoot some air in them tires. I guess I'll just pull it and then we'll decide maybe if we could get it over here in this area or something. Yeah just somewhere a little where. It's just I know where that truck's going to hang it if we don't move it. Right. You think we can just slide it around? I think yeah I think it'll slide right over that direction and be completely out of the way there. Seeing it flip up I was like oh no don't let it gouge you. Yeah it was more just stuck. Just stuck in the in the grass there. Bury it somewhere back out here for another 40 years. Should work huh? Yeah. I don't know if I feel mosquitoes on me or ticks. They're about the same size. Gonna grab some air and try to shoot to them tires. Yeah. See if it'll hopefully take some. They look a lot better shape than most of them we tried to air up. Yeah. You know what that means normally though. The better they look the less luck we have. I haven't paid much mind to thinking about snakes being out here but I know it's that time of the year. Losing most of mine just out the valve see. Mine don't have any in it. I don't have no air. I blow it up by mouth. Oh this one took some. That's the most mine's got. About 20 pounds it's gonna be gone. Try this one. It ain't got a good end on it so it leaks out pretty bad. As light as this thing is even if they don't air up I think we're fine. I can't get this. Yeah you gotta press it real hard. I wish this leaking right back out of that anyways. I think it was wasn't it? Or is it this? Yeah. No it's this. It's both of them. Yeah the valve valve core is leaky. I mean it's damp. I think most of the valve stems are rotted out on them. Like I said the tires are good and the valve stems are bad. Stinks. Got a cap if that'll help you. I don't think so. Mine didn't get enough air in it to help her so. Mine ain't got a pound in it. Oh we want to just try to pull it out or? I think that's our only option. I mean we can sit here and try to figure it out but they're gonna go flat doing that too. A lot of it's this junky tank and then like I said I think these valve stems are dry rotted. Well never fails. The ones that look the best work the worst. That's right. Yep. Make sure the drawers are open on it even. A little rat's nest in the inside. I hope the steering wheel don't lock. It don't. I didn't think about that. Find a place? Yeah I was gonna hook to this little bumper connection but it's just real thin so I went up found me a good inch and a half bar to hook to. Yeah that inside's pretty rough. I'll just take it slow and uh. If you don't want to go another foot and a half and then stop. Yeah. I might have to get closer in a shorter chain I'm afraid. Shorter chain? It's pulling it it's going to pull it into that tree ain't it? Yeah yeah because none of the tires or wheels Let me try to get real close to get past that tree. I'm kind of trapped in here. Okay let me try come back just a little bit more. It's attacking me. That's about as close as I want to get to to the tree. We didn't have an inch and a half maybe. I know it looked close. I seen it hang a vine around. Yeah that vine grab told me I'm keeping one of you. Well at least that didn't hang on nothing. Right. I guess the fun part now is weaving it through this little path. Well I could tell these two were turning. Oh yeah. I don't know about that side but the way it's moving I'm thinking I don't see any drag marks. Right yeah yeah they're probably all rolling. All right I guess let's just try to get it on out of here. You ready? That went a lot easier than I thought it would. Yeah it didn't hang on near as much as I thought it would Other than me. I think most of these tires are rolling. I know that front one is because the flat spot's on the top now. Looks a little better out of the woods in my opinion. Yeah don't look so much projecty. Yeah I don't know about that. I guess we'll get this chain unhooked and I'll start backing the trailer up here. It'll be loaded backwards but as light as it is I don't think that'll give us any issue. Right. Head back to the house. Should turn enough to go on there huh? Kind of on a hill. I'll see how this thing lets down. Okay. Should work. Easiest ones we've ever winched on here. Yeah. I guess we'll throw some straps on it and head back. All righty. Well guys I think it's safe to say that we can mark this off as another successful Will It Rescue video. Now me and dad we're always looking for old honey holes around our area but we're never really sure of what we're going to stumble across or what kind of struggles lie ahead once we get out there. When we found this old Dodson we knew it was something that we just had to bring home with us. Now she wasn't as grown up as most of the stuff that we normally deal with but we still had to cut down a few trees just to be able to get her out of a resting spot. Once we got her cut out we tried to put a little air into the tires but we're completely unsuccessful on that. We decided just to try to drag her on out which was a challenge in itself with all the thick woods and just stuff laid around everywhere. But at the end of the day I guess we do have her on the trailer now and I have to say that I couldn't be happier with her. Now all we got to do is get her back to the shop, dig in a little bit deeper, and decide exactly what kind of direction we want to go with it. We're not sure how much time we want to invest in this girl as far as just getting her back up and running or possibly if this is something we just want to do a quick sale on for a little extra cash. Either way we're hot, we're tired, and we're all just ready to get back to the house. So we hope that you enjoyed this video. Don't forget to subscribe, ring that bell, and we'll see you guys on the next one.
