How is it mid engine? It's still up front.
This is a stupid question, but how is this truck mid-engined??
i love the length of these videos. been binge watching ya lately and really appreciate all the wisdom. the editor makes it like a tv show and its great
Just now noticed the wheel spacers in the front,... possibly get some really deep dish wheels to clear the calipers!!!!
leon get out a'here!
Yes Sir!! I love watching your shows, Jared! I have watched a good amount of your videos and every time I enjoy them even more. Keep them coming since that's what makes me enjoying the days even more. So, have a nice day and until the next one. Take care, you guys. I really love the work on that truck. That's giving me an idea just that I have to wait! You guys are awesome! And so until next time! Bye!
Keep up the awesome videos
I need that left frame rail you did not use
It idles awesome for first couple start ups
U should weld the hood to the roof permanently it looks great 😂
thinking about Ford supervan, English Transit style, thank you for the weird crazy awesome inspiration. IH built some tough old rigs. People are only limited by their imagination, if they have torches, and welders.
Those welds are 👌🏻 my only with that transmission crossmember is that it looks to drop down from the chassis rail a long way, just wondering how much clearance there is from the ground when the truck is sitting at ride height.
I want a job at J&J. Where would SEworld car builds be without them? 👏 👏
I have a particular affection for those "13 lettered motherf*ckers" even if my 4 cyl '60 Scout tried to kill me when the axle broke and the thing slid about a mile down the side of a mountain near Georgetown, CO in (probably) 1980. I survived, as did my co-worker and our cooler full of beer.
What show is Randy going to be at?
That grille looks very similar to the Australian XW Ford Falcon. A bit thinner, but it has the look
Love your work Jared, enjoy your videos and thumb up. Truck is coming up nicely.

Really enjoy the content and makes my day seeing a video upload for you guys! Keep up the awesome work 💯🔥
It wants to be a nascar “turn left”
It thinks it's a NASCAR truck
Great work buddy
I thought he was going to say, at the end; "By the time you're doing it a sixt time.. ... you're almost wrenching everyday" ..
Fyi corvettes didnt come cast iron blocks
Love the "vette" engine.... smfh
A side impact would be a real disaster in that truck.
Mid engined?
Yes! A shout out to the freedom factory would be a awesome episode you tavarish and cleeter!
that sucks think my gf rack got fucked now after watching this. hope not although it hasnt nascard while sitting theres a wierd spot turning at low speed got hit by a cars handbrake that became unset.
The shop dog is the real star here
Mid engined, joke of a ... just to get people to watch ur clip.
this is just a sick sick truck! love internationals!
give it gas and wants to go left.. nascar ready
Can't wait for the Honda Roussey
Hoses crossed?
He just wants to be a nascar
VTuned should take note on how to build a transmission crossmember.
Plenty of room on top for a supercharger or maybe turbos
The engine isnt near low enough...
There's a whole wide range of "fragrance" between "less" and "smellier", Jared. Another reason to be thankful there's no odorama on SEworld yet 😜
I love this project. Over the pond, we don’t see things like this. Fantastic
Wouldn't starting it without any fluid in the transmission kill the transmission directly?
Holy hell the editor goes CRAZY. He's insane
I'm loving this project! Still can't decide what body our LS is going to go in after we finish our mustang project, but an older truck like this looks like a lot of fun! And sooooo much room to work on it! Keep up the good work!
On my 58 Chevy p/u with a LS, I did a two into one air intake. I had air filters behind each inboard headlight location. I removed the inboard headlights and built screens to fit in the hole, similar to a 64 Ford T-bolt.
We like bosco the dog
Default setting: Nascar.
I like that you are showing the old International pickup some love. They were built like tanks and abused like a tank and few people appreciate them enough to fix up.
Always sound advices guys
That questionable choices bit gets me every, single, time. #jaredismyfave
I would hate to get hit on the passenger side,just like the older chevy trucks catch fire after getting hit on the side because it was on the outside of the frame.
Imo, the engine and trans are sitting too low. I suspect you will damage oil pans on speed bumps! You have room to move it up, so revise and don't oil the streets up.
3:35 😧🤭 Jaredddd... Didn’t knew u speak French, how lovely 😊👋😂
It's a joy watching craftsmen work.
You guys need to put a super charger on that LS
Love the Internationals. Our Scoutmaster could stuff most of the Troop in his Travelall, and our friend used to load some of us up in his dad's Scout Mail Jeep, with right hand drive and a pink paint job. Never owned one, but I'm not dead yet...
6 liter is so powerful even a RWD has toque steer. Love the show.
Jared's nearly up there with Leno for purity
cant wait to see what kind of paint you do to this beast
Would look sick with truck exhausts. What do they call them? Stove pipe exhaust or something like that?
A fuel cell in a toolbox? maybe, if you want to get the space to work under there.
They dont make them like they use to, I wish I could take my whole front end off to do engine work
That really is a weird place for a gas tank. Why not just delete it all together and put a fuel cell in the bed?
So is the converter not bolted to the flex plate? As adept as you are Jared I would bet it isn't....but dry trans...running engine....YIKES! LOL
You have to counterstear at the freedom factory as driving sideways is a requirement.😂
I'm wondering if the steering rack pulling to the left was a possible cause of the 'accident'. Many years ago I worked for a fellah who bought and repaired accident damaged cars. One car he had was front wheel drive, and had been pulled backwards out of a ditch. After fixing it all, he drove it up the road and the oil all fell out of the gearbox.... a tooth had come of the diff and caused one wheel to lock - putting the car in the ditch - then freed up when pulled out. This rack might be a similar cause :-). BTW, love the build.
I'm just curious, why did you keep the live axle in the back? was it just that much easier than replacing it with some sort of independent system?
Dude, you sound like Tavarish .
Need to take a old hood n make a visor for Johnny Rev
Itll be ok. The steering wheel will stop turning when it hits full lock
Shop dogs are some of the best dogs.
It’s funny looking at these older cars and trucks with such big engine bays , it’s makes even a 6.2 look small. But that’s good , more room for snails 🐌
You should do a hood scoop for air, haha i like the weird of center ones but it looks like yours is already setup to be in the center.
I just gotta ask, why use a Johnny Reb truck instead of just another base international truck. Seems you've undone everything that made it a special addition truck. It's cool, don't get me wrong, but you could've done the exact same thing with any old international truck and kept the Johnny Reb as a special addition testimonial to a truck they claim doesn't exist.
and do side pipes..........
Love the Build. Please move that gas tank!!
She's got air in the lines
A Rebel with a Yankee heart transplant lol
Dang Bubba look at the clearance on that transmission tunnel. You can drop that down so Sally Mae can sit in the middle right next to Johnny Reb.
Jared really has brought up the quality of this channel. Good work bruh.
Can’t wait to see it out on the road 👍👍😍😍
Can't wait for this thing back on road
So a truck that only goes to the left? Sounds like a nascar to me
How much for the old mufflers ?
There's a lot of room on top of the motor for a supercharger!
Jared, I really want to see you hide that engine with a false cover that looks like a 4-banger or a straight 6 or something like that. You've actually got enough room in there for an LS-powered barbecue grill too. Drive to the lake and cook your brisket at the same time!
Holy crap we need a wrench every day soundtrack! The music played in these episodes r just freaking amazing
Dear editor: Why is the music louder than the talking? . Better question is why the music at all ?
Usually there are only 6 assholes who downvote videos, because they live in mom's basement and hate their lives. You must be doing something right.
hit the brakes to go right
Remember working on my 1977 New Yorker, and couldn't figure out why my wheels were turning left. Then learned you had to adjust it by just slightly loosing where the hoses bolted to the steering box and move it slightly to the right or the left. This was back in the days before Internet and Google were your friend.
The new editing 👌👌👌👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Thanks Evan! You're my new favorite channel subscriber :)
Turning right is overrated, Jarrod. Lol
There is so much space in the engine bay. Im jealous
14:21 Sadly, i've never been able to "throw an engine" into anything
Turning right only comes with the premium package, getting fancy!
The Boscoe callout lead to me not paying attention to the auto work for the rest of that shot. Also, Clear that Patina!!
If it turns to the left in drive, just put it in reverse to turn to the right lol.
Hang on! I'd that a dodge ramcharger in the back!!!
Looks like you got the room... quad turbo time!
