About the Channel

Diesel Creek is run by Matt in western Pennsylvania, who buys long-idle bulldozers, cable shovels, loaders, cranes, and trucks, often at auction or from scrap yards, and films the work of getting them running again. The channel has posted more than 400 videos.

"As a small town kid the last thing I ever imagined myself doing was operating a web store selling merch to thousands of fans, who tune in every week to see what kinda junk I'm working on."

"The Diesel Creek channel and Brand have grown leaps and bounds larger than I had ever imagined. None of that is possible without YOU."
