Description
Hey there, welcome to the channel! Here's where I share all my adventures, projects, revivals, and knowledge about all old things up in the State of Alaska. I started wrenching when I was 15, when I bought my first vehicle. A 1971 Ford F250 4x4 'Highboy' that sat in a junkyard since 1984. It is now my daily driver.

Watch along as I bring old vehicles and equipment back to life, find treasures, and go out exploring places of the past. All things that have been long forgotten in the harsh environment of Alaska. I'll teach you about them, and how to work on them. I'll also show you some good old Alaska ingenuity, along with lots of dry humor.


Keep things rusty, except your tools.

You will NOT get an argument from me! That took some serious gumption to get that monster started. Once moving, all Old Blue wanted to do was gobble up snowy roads like a Yeti PacMan. Take great care and stay warm up there as best you can! Cheers!!!
