I've been a professional mechanic for 10 years and I've always fought the brake cable clips with pliers, the trick you used with the wrench was so easy and made me mad at my self for not thinking of it, haha. Nice work man keep it up
Hey, I am right there with you. I spent at least ten years using pliers until a viewer pointed that out.
Great Britain up grading the engine up to date nearly 20 years later superman longbed liftkit tires 4wd 1979 f0rd f_250 truck very simple looking and fewer.problems to go wrong if it should happen once again very nicely done ✔️ ..
Hahaha I know you get one side popped out and then try to get the other side out and then it pops back out on the other side…😂 That was super simple, I mean I knew it would work if you had something to fit it properly but I just never took the time to find the right size wrench. 😂 I believe I’ll work smarter not harder from now on. 😅
I’m right there with you guys I spent 30 years using pliers .
I bet that kid will be a top notch mechanic by the time he is 15.
Let's hope so sometimes it makes them hate it and want nothing to do with it. But let's hope dose
@Larry Hooper Funny I served and deployed and got out in '05
Yep! salute and respect to Mr. Coulson for exposing his kid into building/repairing/diy car stuff as young as possible
And a cookie monster too.
My Mexican dad thought me at 7 and I mastered it at 15
You picked a great truck to restore! I'm wishing I had the talent, space, and money to pull something like this off. Thanks for sharing!
Buy an old truck and just take the time to learn. It’s so rewarding when you get done with a project and then you want another project. Those old Fords are super simple to work on. They wanted to make trucks back then that anybody could work on…
This truck came out looking incredible. I loved this era of the Ford pickups. My father had a couple of the 70's and 80's F-series pickups when I was growing up and they always served him well. This one looks great in white. Not a lot of trucks can pull that off.
‘79 Ford Trucks are by far my favorite body style of any truck ever made.
Thanks Dave I can sleep better knowing this.
@Free American I have a 78 F-150
@Free American square bodies take the cake
@Free American Thanks!
@@mrjetsondc don’t be an ass dude...Dave didn’t knock on your door for a comment..you came here on your own...
That dent work was pretty freakin amazing.
I was thinking the same thing!
I want to do this with an 89 Ford Ranger I bought for my Dad. It was the last conversation I had with him before he passed unexpectedly two years ago. I have none of the skills, but I will learn. I appreciate channels like yours that will teach me in time, even if it takes the rest of my life.
That was genius. The whole rebuilt and the shooting/editting. Alot of respect.
Love these old Ford trucks, there's not a better looking truck ever built. You did an amazing job.
57 Chevy and 55 Ford are the best looking.
Dodge Power Wagon has it beat as it was the first Work Truck. These 70's Fords do look good though
@libra8a yes, I am referring to the 1947 until 1963? I know Dodge continued to make the 1947 Power Wagon until the mid 1970's for export only and not for sale in the US.
I love Fords too. Especially’68.
@@thunderheads4103 dodges are shit tho they’re cheaper trucks for a reason and people take the model “RAM” a bit too seriously I don’t see many rams without a giant dent in the front or back because people always hit them with something and they’re cheaper trucks for a reason also go ahead and tap a 2nd gens dash and tell me what happens.... not a lot of trucks do that
Seeing the wife and kids help and encouragement with your build was a blessing. You had the best part of your build long before you ever purchased the truck. Amazing work ethic and talent. The results are absolutely fantastic.
Awesome comment. I am very lucky to have them for sure.
That is true.
I said same thing, it sucks when nobody around you shares your passion. It's a real downer.
Love these old Ford trucks, there's not a better looking truck ever built. You did an amazing job.
@@AustinCoulson What a fantastic looking pickup, 100% better looking than any new models in my opinion, my girlfriend and enjoyed seeing wife & son helping and loved the dog. Don't see many American pickups here in England unfortunately.
Awesome Job. 1979's will never go out of style.
That cookie your sister made was incredible! Did not expect it to be that good!
Why isn't your channel called, " The Amazing Papa Show"?? That would be amazing. 😅👍
Mr. Coulson, if you made your son's 'promo' the actual intro of every video.. I would bet money on your channel booming with referrals.. 🙂👍
@@paulbelanger7383 I agree, I think that name is a lot more catchy/marketable as a channel name.
I would definitely recommend this verbally to as many people as I know if this chamber were named “The Amazing Papa Show”
Your boys comment made it wholesome.luved it all good work ,amazing papa....
That clip earned my sub with notifications!
I have to say what a wonderful job and such a nice restoration you kept it simple upgrading and repairing what you needed without taking away from the trucks design nice job

Beautiful Truck. Love seeing old iron rebuilt and enjoyed for years to come.
Thanks for renewing this classic. I love seeing them every so often on the road. My grandpa had a 78.
I thought this was going to be a weekend warrior project, I was wrong. You’re a professional. Great video.
Thanks!
Awesome build, real, not like gasmonkey etc where new parts are just thrown together. Takes a lot of skill to take it totally apart like that. Kudos to you, hope folk folk to you for a build.
Second time watching this. Still just as captivating! I love the thoroughness of the job! No part is left untouched and it looks brand new. Kudos to you!
Nice truck! Nice dog, sister cookies… Pretty solid video bro… God Bless America…
I envy your talent, that was amazing. The truck looks beautiful and I am so glad you went with a 460.
Admire
The 460 was a beast used everywhere from motorhomes to pickups pulling big boats and trailers. Great engine.
Who is this man, he did every single thing to this truck expect machine the heads?!
I'm still upset I don't have the machining equipment to do engines in-house...maybe someday.
@@AustinCoulson You need a sponsor... the QUALITY work you do, we need to get you one.
It's not unbelievable bud. I've been doing the same for years. Everything is done by myself with zero help. Started turning wrenches at age 12.
@@dieseldabz7104 awesome 👍🏾
That was great being able to rebuild the transmission.
Great work, saving this 350 from a graveyard. Great mechanic skills, also the cookie was looking yummy :D
They called em all gas guzzlers and sent em to the crusher. Modern V6 and V8 engines aren't any damn better on fuel, they aren't and will not be anything close to as tough and reliable as the 70s trucks.
You should have included a time stamp for the cookie.
It’s not a 350 it’s a 351, not to be a dick but yea really good motor.
I have received a bunch of questions on this video and almost all of them are answered in detail in the individual episodes. There are links to those in the description, but for those of you that don't have the time or desire to watch those, here are the answers to the most common questions;
Q: Why did you do all that body work and not repaint it!?
A: Because the owner and I appreciate trucks that have the original paint, and he uses this truck as a truck so it is bound to get little scratches. Also, it would have increase the cost by around 10k
Q: How long did this take?
A: 275hrs of labor over 4 months
Q: How much did it cost and is it for sale?
A: I Charged 30k$ USD for this build, and around 13k$ or so was labor and the rest parts. The owner paid for a lot of additional parts himself. I don't know the exact total into this truck including the truck itself but I am sure it's over 45k. The owner is accepting offers on it and if you email me @ acthecarguy@gmail.com I will pass your info onto him
Q: How did you learn to do this?
A: Lots of trial and error (mostly error) when I was young. I learned better techniques and how to read technical manuals in the Army as a helicopter mechanic, and last but not least, TH-cam
Q: How did you become so awesome?
A: Awesomeness is passed down from the Mother. Don't believe me, look at my Sister's cookie or look at my wife wet sanding the bed, then see how proficient my Son is at engine building.
Thank you all so much for the support on this build, if you have any more questions just write them in the comments!
Awesomeness is a genetic that is passed down from the mother. Love the build.
What surprised me is how long your son spun around in that chair / stool , and the disc breaks I miss my brother
I have a 1977 F-350 2whl Dr. Camper Special that has gotten me so many compliments and cost me so much time in endless conversations, that it has become like an obsession. Part of me wishes I could've spent all the time that I spent with people, talking about how "COOL" she is, instead, taking her all the way down to the frame,as you did with this truck, but the conversations have been priceless, in the sense of admiration others have expressed for the old Ford! Besides, if she was perfect, I might never make it home for dinner and potentially costing me a divorce with my other wife!👀🤣😂
I have had endless offers from individuals, interested in buying her, but I've had no desire to part ways so far. Should I decide to, I would only do so, provided I had an individual such as yourself willing to take possession and give her the care she deserves!
Loved the video. I'm subscribing and looking forward to watching more! "AWESOME WORK!!!👍👍
!!!
@@jackpayne3996 wow, quite the compliment, thank you!
I used to rebuild engines with my Dad. I have fond memories of working with him on many engines he would rebuild. It is nice to see someone younger doing it. God Bless you all. Beautiful job. Such memories I have with older trucks.
Beautiful job. So glad you restored such a cool classic!
BEING ABLE TO DO THIS IS ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE, AMAZING TALENT .
I can’t fathom the knuckle bustin, cut to pieces fingers and arms and back breaking man hours that went into this! Well done and something to be proud of!
This is one of the coolest videos I’ve ever watched. I wish I had half the knowledge and talent to be able to do this!
One of the best TH-cam videos I've ever seen. Had my attention from start to finish. The hard work paid off. Truck looks fantastic.
Thank you for this video. Excellent restoration of a classic workhorse. Congratulations. Done with kindness, respect and with a loving family. Big ups for your accomplishments.
clean smooth and professional you can't ask for a more thorough job for restoration absolutely beautiful
I'm speechless at the detail and know how it takes with all the hard work to a magnificent job ! Thanks for sharing!
I have a 77' LB with 351W and love seeing these build vids. Nothing more enjoying than seeing the beginning to the end especially in one vid! All I'm saying issssssssss WOOOOWWWW. What an amazing job with EVERYTHING. Not sure if you do this as a profession or a hobby but must say you have some serious talent. Also, its so nice to see the family involved as well. Great vid & THUMBS UP!
Thanks for the kind words. This is indeed my profession, but right after this build I took a job at Powernation as the host of Music City Trucks, a new truck show they started. I'll have more details on that job in a video soon.
Agree
@@AustinCoulson could u tell me what that build cost was included labor
@@767dag check out the 10th episode of this build at the very end I go over all the finances, but it was a 30k budget but some of the parts like tires/wheels/lift kit weren't included in that
What a great job! Excellent attention to detail, doing everything properly. And showing the next generation how to spanner, too. When the world has gone to those boring, soul-less electric vehicles, cars like these will be truly appreciated.
DUDE! Just randomly started watching this video and at the end I noticed you were in Phoenix. Then I recognized your house. You sold me your old lincoln 140 welder a couple years ago! Still welding and getting pretty good at it. RAWAH!
Hell yea! That's awesome. I loved that welder, I still think it was better for anything thinner than 20ga than my current Lincoln. Happy it has a good home, but even happier it's getting used.
You and your sister are both very talented. Great job on both the actual truck and the cookie 💯💯
Great job!
Nice, rust free and well preserved body. This is what happens when a man owns tools and knows how to use them.
Love the video, the quality of work, the joy of it all, the family... great stuff
Hats off...Sir, you are an inspiration. Its great to see a throw-back to a no-nonsense project like yours. A driver, a mule and its yours..you win !
Amazing! I’m totally Impressed!!! I can change oil, brakes, and wiper fluid. You rebuilt this whole truck by yourself👍.
I had a 78 F-250 4x4 SC...pulled the 351 and put in a 460 to pull the 5th wheel.
The 460 got us to the next gas station faster! Nice job on yours!
When I was little, my grandpa got a 95 F-350 with the 460 and a fifth wheel and I remember him driving from Denver to visit us and he used 100$ in fuel in ONE DAY and my mind was blown. I think fuel was around 95 cents a gallon back then, but I couldn't fathom how someone could use that much fuel in a day.
Gifted, talented and ingenious! Pulling this work off all by yourself is amazing!
Que trabalho fantástico!
Parabéns!
Very good, that was a lot of work. A lot more than I would dare attempt. I love the concept of restoring decent older vehicles to be daily drivers. Uniqueness, character, simplicity, minimal inspections, low taxes, all around a winning combo. I dont think today's cars will survive to be classics, they are too complicated and will get too expensive to fix when all the electronics wear out. I'll take vintage any day.
Amazing craftsmanship, thanks for taking the time to share.
Very impressed with your ability and knowledge. Satisfying to watch you bring this back to life. Thank you.
That is awesome! Living in the rust belt, we dream of having such a solid start. Beautifully done, it’s cool to see you are able to have the original paint and and then upgrade everything else.
Hi Jason how are you doing hope you had a nice day. I'm Maria from Minnesota, looking for a new friend Ok.
I have to agree with everyone else, I love the 79’ too. Had one years ago and it was a beast. Love this build, you guys are so lucky to be able to do this and have the family there too. I envy you and your crew
Had a rough day at work today.... this video just made my day. Thanks.
This truck is a keep for life and the young buck will have some great memories for life. Great video man! Best of luck to ya.
When a new truck is so expensive and ugly you’ll spend whatever it takes to renew the truck you want. I would buy this truck in a hot second over a new one. Excellent work. Aloha
Brother..you have some serious skills, i wish i could apprentice under you.
Anyone who can and does this to an old Ford Dentside is a good man. Lots of hard work, hours and money invested. Your little boy will enjoy this beast after you pass it down to him.
Always amazed at people that have this talent.... Great job!
I’d definitely take that truck over my 2019 F150 any day of the week!!!!
Exactly what I was thinking.
Same here. In a heartbeat
That is one magnificent truck. Brings back some amazing memories of my dads work truck with its 460. Now I think I will have to go and watch the whole build. Thank you so much
Thanks 👍
Well done mate, what an effort! I can imagine the time and sacrifice it took. awesome video. Thank you
Unreal! Speechless. I knew after the first minute i was watching the whole video. Love the time lapse. You're a wizard my friend. You couldn't have got anymore intimate with this truck. Seems like you touched every nut and bolt. The love, time, effort etc that went into it, I can't even imagine, I'd probably have a stroke. I sat back drank my coffee and thoroughly enjoyed it. Very Very few have that level of skill and talent. You the man!
This guy is beyond a true craftsman, he is a one-man factory on his own. Excellent, impeccable, artisan work. I am honestly sorry that I am too far away to snatch this truck from him. He deserves every penny of the price he asks for his work. This is true quality through and through.
One of the best restoration vids I've seen, you're a blessed man to have such a supportive family. Thanks for sharing, saved and subbed 👍
You are 100% right on the fam. Thanks for the kind comment
I don’t know how I’m going to do it, but you’ve just motivated me to finish my 89 Bronco! Thank you!!! I’m asking the universe for a shop like yours😇
This is awesome and seeing restorations like this just motivates the rest of us to keep going on our projects.
Amazing skill set. The music during the brakes sequence was fantastic.
I was thinking the same thing gonna rewind
Naa after future inspection when he's putting that first motor to bed is when the good toe tapping back drop music comes in got a little jazz - piano I think I can find a few words to sing along
Great work, that truck is beautiful!
Great job, it’s great to have the knowledge to fix and do all the thing you did.
Man you're an amazing mechanic! Wish I had skills like that.
Much as I hate "patina" with the fire of a thousand suns, I have to say that, in this case, I get it. And it's freakin' awesome. You didn't go for all-out, glittering perfection; the kind that renders the truck unusable. You pushed out the dents and patched up the worst of the finish, and, most importantly, you kept it a useful truck. Trucks are cool and I love them, because their whole gestalt is that of a utilitarian vehicle. Great build and well played, bro.
Thanks for the comment. That is exactly what I was going for!
@@AustinCoulson I'm a bodyman and it drove me nuts seeing that truck completely gutted and ready for bodywork but I get it. You don't have to worry about dents or scratches. I still would have made it perfect if it were me but you probably did the right thing.
Dude, I'm completely impressed with your ability and capacity to do this project with your own hands. I admire people like you who are able to develop this kind of job from the beginning to the end. Accept my congrats and admiration. It was an amazing job!
I appreciate that!
Glad to see a Father with his son....your a lucky boy little one👍
You know is good when your old pa finds it comfortable❤
78/79 fords are the best looking vehicles I’ve ever seen I can’t wait to own one
Oh man, that's a pretty truck. Love those 70s Fords
Hi how are you doing hope you had a nice day. I'm Maria from Minnesota, looking for a new friend Ok.
Nice man! Cool build and good to see kid and wife helping.
Damn, that truck looks absolutely stunning! Awesome work.
Holy cow, man. That was sweet to watch all that love and care you put in. Beautiful. I'm from Illinois originally. I don't think I've ever seen an original truck that nice to start with! LOL
Hi Brad how are you doing hope you had a nice day. I'm Maria from Minnesota, looking for a new friend Ok.
Little mans' voice at the end, some sister love with cookies, and the wife warning (and obvious help in the cab 2/3rds in) make this a family channel. Dude, we could sub you for Sesame Street, but for some serious learning. Great job and welcome to TN!
Thanks!
wow Scotty Kilmer just moved there TN Amazing people live there. Go Predators !
Dude this build is amazing. You are one talented person. Hats off to your incredible abilities.
What a great looking truck!!! Very nice build. I like the fact you tried to keep the original paint except for the minor blemishes. Sounds great too!!!
"The Amazing Papa Show" just got my sub!
your sister is amazing, at least someone in the family got talent lol. j/k keep up the good work and welcome to the east coast.
Man that truck is beautiful. You're an artist.
This man is amazing. A lot of these guys are on youtube but I really prefer his music selection. Thanks!
Had a '76. '79 is my favorite year.
I always liked a good 69
How in the world does one guy have this much talent?!!!!
I have a great supporting cast...
@@AustinCoulson How in the world do you have so much time?
What a beautiful build! I would proudly drive that!
Ive got a the same project just a single cab 250 , great inspiration! Seeing the fenders come off is like a sigh of relief
Your not even done building it and I already want it so bad.
This is all I want in life right now
Wow! GREAT JOB! I wish i had your skills and equipment to do jobs like this. That has to be the most rewarding feeling saving an old truck like that.
You basically made a time machine because you can drive in a fully restored piece of history.
Good on you buddy. Instant subscription from me.
Brother, that's an awesome truck you restored. I enjoyed the video very much. I'm very happy for you...looks like you've been blessed in life! Will definitely watch more of your videos.
"we decided to swap the 400 for a 460. good man!
Utmost respect for this guy, for sure not a snowflake millennial.
The amazing papa show! That's what it's all about right there. That truck is the most badass thing on the road aswell!
Watched the video again and again and again.It’s an art piece.

I only lack 3 things to do this: Knowledge, Skill & tools.
I bought a 1978 f100 needs to be restored and these are the 3 things i need xD Im 18 dont know fk all about mechanics. I just like the truck
I have the dreams though!
I only have a little of each. Not enough to rebuild on this level.
@@riverstyx274 you should document your journey im sure there's people* who could learn from it

4: willpower.
Excellent build! Not a Ford fan but I’d probably buy that one just because the detail and product quality you put into that one; would be worth it. Again, excellent build!
I love the fact that you didn't go overboard. Improved it over the original. Didn't go bananas on the paint.
That truck is worth quite a bit more now and has another 200k miles in it or more!
Henry Ford knew what was really going on.
