Second, on thanks for saving a great old Ford. I've got a 71 and it is going to the shop soon to get a facelift. I don't have time to do the work, but I want to keep it alive, enjoy it, and pass it on to my son one day. Very nice truck you have and great job! Enjoy it....
I have a 1971 ford ranger f 250 camper special I'm working on currently, the issue is you really have to make sure it went into park or the truck will roll away, rolled into a tree once, luckily the hitch and the tailgate took the force.
The Holley efi gave the truck better throttle response and probably mileage. It seemed to take longer to crank the engine to start the truck up, with the carb if you barely bumped the starter it would pop right off. One thing I didn't like is I used a external fuel pump that came with the kit, you could hear the fuel pump under acceleration. I moved the cross member back to make room for the Mustang gas tank.
@@rockcountygarage3430 Thank you. I have a 69 mustang tank and I just learned that in 73 Ford moved the crossmember to make room for the tank, so I don't think it's an issue. I'll be picking up my engine from the machine shop in the morning and will be ordering the Sniper today.
The front is 245/40x18 and the rear is 275/45x20 The rear is really tall to level the truck because of the axel flip. If I had it to over again I would have used lowering hangers and shackles instead of doing the axle flip.
Did you have to use spacers? I have a explorer rear end and ordered spacers to get the rear end a little wider so the wheels will sit in the wheel wells. If you don’t mind I will probably ask you more questions. Doing a similar build.
The carpet is a molded carpet from stock interiors. I highly recommend them, the carpet was excellent quality. The dash holes were filled in and the the dash was painted. The door panels are stock steel panels I found on eBay and painted black.
Hi I have 1968 ford f100 with 97 explore rear and a crown Vic front end would like to know size of wheels and tires front and rear and back space on wheels front and back What shocks did you use on rear help me if you don't mind You have a nice looking truck thanks Ronnie
I spent over 1000 hours restoring this truck and that seems to be the number one comment. A lot of people don't understand that music is copyrighted. If you use music that someone owns TH-cam will take down your video. Not everyone has the same taste in music. I'm sorry Jim that you don't like the music I chose but why say anything? Use the mute button and move on.
What's the back spacing on the wheels?
The rear is 5.25 with a 20X9.5 wheel and 2" spacers. The front is 5.125 with a 18x8.5 wheel.

Very nice!! I've never seen a cab in such bad shape with the rust, you've done a superb job rubbing that thing out. Looks good!!
LOVE ithat shade of green y’all went with on this one. It’s sick! You can’t save the paint on all of em.
GREAT job! Turned out killer!
Thanks for saving a good, old Ford!
Your truck is goals man that truck is so clean.
Wow!! Beautiful work. You got some skills.
Outstanding work on this pickup
Thanks for sharing .
Yeah I'm jealous, can't wait to settle down in a decent area and start a rebuild on one.
1:30 my heart jumped. Thought that was a huge bee nest.
Nice color choice
Good Job! Beautiful Ford!
Muy hermosa te quedó!!!! Felicitaciones!!!
Inspiring! Beautiful bad ass bumpside. Congratulations

Hello from Donbass
Great job.
Nice work!
Looks like a copy of KC's truck, which is a badass truck
Can't say anything bad about that!
Beautiful job!
Beautiful work just change the tunes every minute or so to make the videos more enjoyable 💪🏻
What a great vidieo! Good job!👍👍
Very nice job congratulations looks great!
Awesome. Replace the chunky 70s grill with the sleeker ‘69 and it’d be perfect!

Dude this is awesome I love ford trucks very underrated restored trucks seems like everyone is into chevys
For sale 1972 F100 California truck, very little rust, great project....
Very very nice...
I love the wheels what brand are they
truck looks badass
lmao was not expecting bad and boujee on a video of a 70s f100...
people into these trucks are usually into country music
Shyzah You obviously have no clue, I'm currently building my 4th dimple side and I Hate country music.
Shyzah No youngster you’re Wrong!
Jason Campbell youngsters they don’t know, they ain’t old skool, more like new skool youngsters into newer shit I see.
Usually straight too.
@@jasoncampbell172 I call bullshit. Where your video
Aqui no Brasil isso vale ouro ficou belíssima parabéns
Thank you.
Beautiful
I'm working on a 1970 and I can't find the inner pieces for the cab corners where did you get yours
I had to make them, they were not available at the time. I believe Carolina Classics sells them now.
Before you sold it, how did you feel about the Holley Sniper on there? To add the fuel tank in the rear, did you move the crossmember back?
The Holley efi gave the truck better throttle response and probably mileage. It seemed to take longer to crank the engine to start the truck up, with the carb if you barely bumped the starter it would pop right off.

More videos of the truck,
Its beautifull
What does the Lincoln front suspension do for it? As opposed to stock?
It makes it ride nicer, more like a car and less like a truck. Look up crown vic swap, there is tons of information.
great my friend thanks for this video :)
Just ordered the same size wheels for my truck, what did you do for tire sizes front and rear? Was planning on a 275/45/20 rear tire.
The front is 245/40x18 and the rear is 275/45x20 The rear is really tall to level the truck because of the axel flip. If I had it to over again I would have used lowering hangers and shackles instead of doing the axle flip.
Awsume Job!
Ohhh ! what a beauty ! please,, call again the 69/70's Ford designers .. because new trucks sucks in compare with this
Tendran fotografías ya terminada la camioneta?
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Did you move the gas tank out of the cab? Where did you put it?
Behind the rear axle under the bed, it's a 1970 Mustang 22 gallon tank.
Awesome. So no spare tire?
No, just the 800# for roadside assistance through my insurance.
That was a large drop of blood better call Red Cross ! Lol
Did you have to use spacers? I have a explorer rear end and ordered spacers to get the rear end a little wider so the wheels will sit in the wheel wells. If you don’t mind I will probably ask you more questions. Doing a similar build.
2" spacers in the back.
Size of rims
Wooooow !!!
where do you go for body parts
Did you sell it yet? I’m interested and I go through Wisconsin about once a month
I sold it a year ago to a guy in Oklahoma.
What's the color...
sepre gostei de cabine dupla mais ésta e´um sonho
good job
Nice looking truck. Where did you get the interior. Carpet, dash, door panels, etc.. I’m doing the same to my 73.
The carpet is a molded carpet from stock interiors. I highly recommend them, the carpet was excellent quality. The dash holes were filled in and the the dash was painted. The door panels are stock steel panels I found on eBay and painted black.
Pure beauty
What is the color name or code ?
Boxwood green

How much Horsepower and torque
I never had it on a dyno, I would guess around 400 hp at the crank.
@@rockcountygarage3430 Thanks for the reply. It's a very nice ride. I'm 15 and hoping to do the same to my 67 f100
Yo, whats that color code? is badass
Beautiful truck man but man this old Ford had a lot of rust on it. Also what part of Wisconsin are you from.
Nice real nice....want to do my 78 for me?
wtf lol they jacked your truck in the end
Also did you convert from Drum Brakes to Disk Brakes.
Yes, the Lincoln town car front end had disc brakes as did the Explorer rear end.
1972 F100 So 4 wheel disc brakes basically.
What rear end did you put in it?
Ford 8.8 out of a 1999 Ford Explorer
@@rockcountygarage3430 DOES THE REAR AXLE FITS THE TRUCK OR YOU MAKE ANY CUT TO MAKE IT FIT ??
@@guillermogaytan8456 The axel fits but I had to cut off the pads that leaf springs sit on and move them a little then reweld new pads.
Whats king of green is this
Can you tell me the color code for the new paint? That shit looks amazing
The color is Boxwood green it's a Ford color.
1972 F100 Prettiest Ford color made btw nice truck
Real music I can't believe it
OG BOSS This music isn’t real more like crap, you gotta be old skool like me
Ha. Us real OG’s listen to anything with a good beat to it.
Bump that shyitt!
Hi I have 1968 ford f100 with 97 explore rear and a crown Vic front end would like to know size of wheels and tires front and rear and back space on wheels front and back What shocks did you use on rear help me if you don't mind You have a nice looking truck thanks Ronnie
Can you tell me the offset of the wheels?
The front is +10mm and the back is zero offset.
I honestly thought this was KCs truck
David Ames KC's truck is being made made faster,lower,meaner,scarier right now cant wait till he is done with it
me too
I love the video but i would have put a different song over the video maybe something by colt ford, because trucks
Interested in building another one?
I have another project I'm going to start so this one will be going up for sale soon.
I’m thinking about putting a 2jz in mine😂
Do it! Make a video when it's done.
Whalen Jennings or Toby kieth would of been better choices for back ground music
Take my money$$
Me interesa un colchón
Odd choice of Music it’s not a Donk video...
