Very nicely done build. Great looking fab work. Looks to be very functional and fun. Too bad about the LS though. Spent all that money on the rest and tarnished the whole thing with the power plant.
Well he built a purpose built rig and 90% of the rigs out where he goes have that and parts are easier to get. I think it easily could have put a coyote in or something and chose the motor for a reason.
Yeah. He blew the whole thing by putting sn ls in it. What a joke!
you stole the word .....tarnished.....right before me lol
good to see it was a fellow in agreement with that disgrace
Great looking fab work? 🤡🤡🤡
I was a little let down by the LS too. Nothing wrong with it, they're a solid choice, but with the level of everything else, I fully expected to see a Godzilla under the hood.
Motor? Do not say LS!
I won’t say it then L92
@@FordEra maaaaan!
This build is incredible and so cool, but the whole review felt rushed to me. So much into this truck and so little covered. Off the highway and very basic questions. Should’ve been a slow walk-through. Something like what Leno does.
We didn’t have any time limit but some owners like to go more into detail and others have not been in front of the camera much. I’m just happy we are able to show this truck to you all.
My question is the same as with any of these Beautiful Trucks. 1, Cost. 2, how do you pay for a quality truck like this? Visa or second mortgage? It’s a Beautiful Truck.
They never do say the cost... I just click 'don't show channel anymore' after giving them 2-3 videos/chances... useless video for people without 6 figures.
You didn't even mention the power plant 😢
Most wouldn’t want to hear about it
they prolly too embarrassed to mention they ruin a nice ford truck with a crap motor
@@daveslocum3270except for the simple fact that Chevy power plants dominate the off-road industry there’s no comparison. It’s not like ford doesn’t make crate engines, you just can’t compare to the reliability of the ls series of engines. I’m no ford hater just people that want to win choose to run what they trust.
I like to watch this channel and decided to try and support with a small order from ford era store, 5 months ago, yet receive my order or a return email response. My payment was taken right away. All I can say is WHAT THE TRUCK! Come on do better!
Im really not sure what happened. My Email is SL@FordEra.com i will definitely look into it and send out more product.
Nice truck but wish you kept the bed long that short bed looks goofy!
To bad that he put a Chevy motor in it, nice build otherwise
Why
@@FordEra I’m so sick tired of seeing people put Chevy engines into the fords this is happening way to much these days
Great truck. Except for the engine choice. I was gonna share the video until I saw what was under the hood. To each his own.
Why does the engine choice matter so much.
@@FordEra I'm just hard core Ford. I don't hate chevy, or any other brand for that matter. It just gets under my skin to see Ford's with any other parts on them that aren't Ford. Engines,transmissions,axles,etc. I guess I'm just a purist. But I can appreciate all the good in other brands. Fords aren't perfect by any means, but I will never own any other brand. I get it that some people aren't as brand loyal as I am and that's fine too. I hope the godzilla engine will be put in more of Fords lineup and maybe in the future it will be just as cost effective to choose it instead of the LS. Ford has a history of building so many different engine designs that it makes them more expensive. That's always been my biggest complaint with Ford. Build a great engine and put it in every vehicle in the lineup and flood the market with them and they will be less expensive. Just like GM.
@@jimmyclements1327 hit it right on the money !!!!!
its called ford era because thats when those 60’s and 70’s were the real deal. dropping non ford motors just cheapens the whole legacy.
no one wants to pop the hood on one of those badass well done trucks and see bowties. be the same to put power by ford in a 68 c10 chevy. them boys would go nuts lol
@@daveslocum3270 exactly. No matter if it's a Ford truck or a car. I can't stand seeing a 32 ford hot rod with a gm engine in it. When I see a Ford that looks killer and I see a gm engine under the hood or find out it has other non Ford parts on it, I'll walk away from it. Even the gm style distributor on Ford engines or gm power steering pumps turn me off. Keep it all Ford. That's why I don't have an aftermarket steering column on my 77 f 150. Because the wire harness and steering wheel hub is made to fit the gm. Like I said, I'm hard core Ford.
I'm not an off-road guy at all, but wow this rig is righteous!
It sure is
Awesome build. No credit to the fab shop, engine swap details, or action shots?
He said it a couple of times the fab work was all done by NV Fab.
Was this truck closer to $150k to complete or $250k? Looks like they could have saved a lot of money getting the same thing, going a different route.
Love everything about this truck, you did an excellent job! I have a blue one same year just like it! Wondering the total cost of your remodel? Estimate? Lol thanks for sharing ❤
Who is the paint guy?
I think he was talking about Scaro (scaropaintjob)
That is a nice truck. There's not another like it.
Your right about that
Common sense move to the ls there is no alternative ,cost ,power, reliability, parts cost and availability , unmatched. Pow wer per dollar .bad ass build
I disagree with that for most builds. I give this a pass because for Offroad racing the LS is nice since everyone has spare parts
What Engine is in That?
That Doesn't Answer my Question?
L92
6.2 Chevy engine
Personally I would’ve opted for a hemi over a LS but that’s just me, I see the advantage in having the LS tho when everyone around you has them, parts will be easier to source, especially on trail break downs which is huge.
What's the wheels are you running struggling to find a set for my 76 f250
One day my son will want to put my expedition body on a 2050 chassis.. (IF 🇺🇸 EXISTED THEN😢) WE THE PEOPLE MUST
UNITE! CIVILIANS AND #OATHKEEPERS!
Good way to ruin a good truck.. no need to do that.. they already were the ultimate work horse.. built ford 💪 tough in the 70s. nothing but a grocery getter now and pavement princess
Damn I need a real truck like that 🐾✌️🇺🇸
Me too
Looks awsome . Its the beauty , put a nice engine in , could be a diesle too . Still bravo very nice
I had a 73 Ford F250 with my brother. And it was a Beast, the best truck we ever got. It was a workhorse
Awesome build! I've been following it on IG for quite awhile.
Same here!
Great build man, freaking cool
Thank you! Cheers!
I’ve seen dodge engines in fords and Chevy engines in fords but never ford engines in a dodge or chevy lol
Love love love the crew cab short bed configuration!!!
What a beautiful truck.I guess you could say that sense it came from Baja California, it's a Baja off roader!
You betcha
@@FordEra
Yesterday hwy 5NB straight up miserable central L.A. traffic around 6 or 7pm... I was in a Jeep Grand Cherokee hauling a fat BMW 325ci up to NorCal. I pulled over and stopped to air up my rear tires, bags, and dolly tires with my co2 tank when I saw this big beast rolling at me on a trailer.
I waved but they didn't notice me. I knew I had seen the truck somewhere before.
beautiful old pickup. they dont make them like the used to.
Any excab 4x4 for sale
Awesome build. I've been following him on IG
Killer 76 Ford crew cab looks like it'll do the job 😉
If it doesn’t I’m worried haha
Really awesome truck
It sure is!
Inside the roof was that a shit load of surface rust???
Love the fridge idea!
Me too!!
Wow, that's impressive!
A fucking lS?! Jeeez!
I'm not a Ford guy but that truck is sick
Hey What's up with that 1971 chevy crew cab are you still selling it
I don’t have any Chevys
@Ford Era you told you have a 1971 chevy crew cab
Sweet truck. I saw this at Fat fender garage last Friday. Nice meeting you there. I have the blue 64’ slmd100
Would you guys be available for hire to get a 79 Ranger rebuilt? It'd just be the wiring, engine, and transmission redone.
Sell my soul for that . Miss my old ford 1976 ranger xlt
Just wow thanks great video😎👍
Glad you enjoyed it
Love it!!!
Awesome rig.
It sure is!
Wow! When I saw the thumbnail I wasn’t that turned on, but WOW!
Cool, but I wanted two doors.
Let me know if u have it for sale
I second that the paint work adds i nice touch.
Nice truck. I was digging it, until I saw that dash.. How one could rip out a beautiful, classic looking gauge cluster, only to replace it for some fugley modern display is beyond me. 🤷🏻♂️
Coulda went the Dakota Digital route and killed 2 birds with 1 stone, but oh well. Different strokes for different folks I suppose.
This is a race truck, dakotas are great but doesn’t compare to the level of information that an AEM delivers
Thats cool
It sure is
WHAT KIND OF SEATS DID HE SAY THEY WERE?
PRP
@@FordEra thanks
Well done!
Awesome!!! Well done 👍🏻
Awesome
Eh... And meh.
He should have started with something else and saved all that money. Throwing cash at a project, doesnt make it "cool".
I hate that paint!
LS yeeeesssss!!! I am not the only one
Something about you Cali boys 😂
Always cutting longbeds so no original remain for my factory restorations. Pretty truck tho.
Makes yours that much rare’r
@@FordEra no crap🥴
Yes please. Never forgive myself for selling my 77 heavy half short bed.
