I love the idea that these old trucks aren't every day drivable as they were built from the factory. I currently drive a 76 F250 4x4 every day with no problems at all. In totally stock form with exception of the engine having been upgraded from a 360 to a 390 over 20 years ago and still going strong. No it doesn't go fast, doesn't have power steering, doesn't have air conditioning, doesn't look good or even have a radio but it'll go anywhere anytime.
I have stock Ford trucks from the 40's through 70's. They'll go anywhere, tow anything and can be maintained for a song. I do like what FFG is doing with these trucks, but I'll probably just keep my stockers till someone hauls me to my grave in one.
I have a 1974 F250 4x4 that I bought new may 18 1974 I was 19 all of my friends asked me what are you doing with an old man’s truck. I knew what I was doing and I made a portable welding truck out of it. I put a ford camper shell on it and all of my tools stayed dry and kept the dirt out of it. I used it for 40 years and kept it clean I didn’t drive hard but it is still in real nice shape cleaner than 90% of the trucks this year I was thinking of putting a Cummins motor until I saw what you guys did to this now I am going to call and see what all parts you used and see what it is going to cost and I think that is the way I am going. Thank you willie.
Truck is absolutely amazing. I don’t have enough to have you guys do it, but you’re inspiring me to do my own at home swap. Will definitely be checking out that website
Great pickup Jason That interior is tight The original bench reworked looks super comfortable Headliner n door panels work so well with the paint That Unassuming Ballpark I like that That's a great place🙂
Think I need this done to my '77 150 4WD. She's in pretty good shape, 429/C6 currently but AC doesn't work and the carb can be a pain. Time to modernize!
What a beautiful transformation. Clearly going to surprise some kids on the strip. With some much bigger meats and a blower.... whoa!!! I want to see what you can do with Godzilla swap.
I LOVE the look of this truck. Literally everything. From the stance to the mirrors, the paint, the bed, then the coyote swap and 10spd auto trans. Gun to my head I have to change one thing about it, I wouldn’t be able to. I’d be dead because to me this is perfect
I love, love, love the work you guys do. I love the showoff videos, the product showcase videos, the progress videos, and that you include links to some of the parts you guys use in your build. I'd love to see some actual in-progress build videos (kind of like how Matt's Offroad Recovery posts on youtube here), but I understand the difficulties of doing that in a machine shop, especially with your channel being its current size. I'm almost certain I'll never be able to afford hiring your shop to do anything, but boy, is it fun to dream...
The Dentside Ford trucks are my favorite generation. I like this modernized build. I'm glad to see a lot of the Dentside exterior and interior character was retained.
Cool trunk I'm all into the mods, I'm a Ford guy had all of them, will tell you old school is better the new s*** garbage, Ultra long bed Solid Steel good suspension brakes and good power plant freshened up interior
To make my point long bed better, how much wood or other items can you put in the truck, f*** we are in a desperate situation in this country, I know for a while a long bed pickup truck will meet your needs better, f*** your fashion b******* that's just me, pulled 15 Red Oaks 8 ft diameter out of the Tennessee mountains with a 68 Chevy long bed snow tires and chains! Just saying I know what these old trucks can do.🇺🇸
Love the practicality of the mirrors, but I wish someone would come out with something better looking with signal indicators, flat and convex, heated also...
So in this truck you didn’t swap the original bed your cut it 2ft and rewelded right? I have a 72 camper special with a long bed that maybe one day I’d like to do something with it
I have one of these trucks, and I HATE the enormous factory AC / heater box in the cab. I saw you guys sell a AC box delete panel, what aftermarket heater / AC unit did you guys use on this truck?
I don’t see a steering column on Flaming River’s website for any Ford trucks. Which one do you use? Also who makes that steering wheel? Very nice truck, looks and sounds great!

I have a 94 300i6 4x2 love the truck pull Anything but I have an e4od my dream truck would be an 80s 250 4x4 manual granny gear with 300
absolutely right- i prefer an old not computerized truck evryday!!
@@halfmil6467😂
😂
Don’t know why everyone shortens these, clean truck but would love to see more longbed ones, especially when low they look so cool and long 👌🏼
Feel the same
All I can say is that this is my bonafide dream job and I AM SO IN LOVE WITH THIS BUILD!!

FORD 100%
Awesome build. Makes a statement, no tired fauxtina and runs like hell
11::23 music to my ears! It sounds amazing!
Would love to have you do my 67 Ford shortbed bumpside...
Very beautiful 75 F250 brother and that 5.0L Coyote V8 sure is a beast.
wow great truck
If my "wife" hadn't intervened I was gonna buy a brand new F250 4x4 in 1975 in those colors, golden glow and walnut!!! Beautiful!!!
Such a badass old truck looks retro modern new seriously awesome
So cool! Man if I ever win the lotto!!

That's the style build I like to see. Pretty factory looking but a lot of nice go fast goodies.
Absolutely Love This Build ! It's PERFECT !!!
Oh wow…does it have a CHEVROLET LS for power..?
Great pickup Jason
That interior is tight
The original bench
reworked looks super comfortable
Headliner n door panels work so well with the paint
That
Unassuming Ballpark
I like that
That's a great place🙂
Nice sleeper!!

Coyote swap the world!
I’m really really excited to see the Godzilla swaps. I have a truck sitting, waiting for the Godzilla game to catch up
Gives me an idea of what my '74 F100 Ranger short bed could be like when I get it done.
nice build enjoyed the videos

Very sweet truck. I love everything about this truck except the mirrors. Awesome build.
👍.......approved!!!
Ten speed.. thats gotta shift like 🧈
Lol That was funny like a trampoline, I’ve been in trucks like that, they will throw ya in the floor
I love my Ranger. I painted my truck 20 years ago still looks today. Very nice truck guys
Great build! Thank you for sharing.
Murica!!! That looks and sounds awesome!
Used to have a '74 F250 that same color combo.
Nice job bro good proyect👍👍👍👍👍
Nice job!!
I LOVE IT!!!! TOTALLY AWSOME BUILD!!!! GREAT DAILY DRIVER. GREAT VIDEO AND THANKS FOR SHARING!!!
What an amazing F250!!
Very nice build. Cant wait to see what you do with Godzilla.
Just beautiful!
Classic look, manual window crank, awesome
I hope someday you can work on my 95!
Looking for 4x4 improved chassis to just swap in a dent. Don't want to neuter my old family pickup with 2x drive.

Flawless
Can someone come out with a bolt in "lowbar" made for behind the seat for safety harnesses...

Beautiful truck but assuming north of $150,000 build. I’d love to have a Coyote in my 77 Ranger XLT because I would daily drive it.
Beautiful truck! I wouldn't want digital dash though and would of added an arm rest.
Have you done any Godzilla swaps yet? How about either the Ford Performance small block 427 or 460? How about a Ford Performance 572?
Love the practicality of the mirrors, but I wish someone would come out with something better looking with signal indicators, flat and convex, heated also...
Yea that would be very cool
@@FatFenderGarage
You're going to work on that, right...
I so wish I could afford something like that but it’s a pipe dream.
MFFA. make ford fun again. LoL 😂 Awesome truck 🛻 would like to see more on the chassis and suspension
Holy crap that's a awesome build!! The dad jeans really sets it off as well. Great job!!!
He’s rocking the dad body, lots of us are lol
@@thruitallauto2538 OH me too for sure. That's why I kid!!
Great video 👍
How much
❤😊 that’s one hell of a sweet track. I wish I had that smoke them all the way bro.
Whats the sticker price on something like this beautiful machine?
Will you guys sell those consoles in the near future ?? Those are super clean!!!
We're working on it. Currently seeing if it makes sense to sell
Perfect truck. How difficult is a 6.2 swap compared to a Coyote?
Come do this to my 84 Thunderbird with 11,000 miles on it
Nice truck
An offset camper wheel would be sick.
What a beautiful truck, how much is it lowered?
So in this truck you didn’t swap the original bed your cut it 2ft and rewelded right? I have a 72 camper special with a long bed that maybe one day I’d like to do something with it
Do you have part number to the steering column and the wheel?
🔥🔥🔥✅🔥✅🏆soooo cool can’t wait to bring my bronco
so beautiful！
I know the 4 valve Coyote is good swap but i still would like to do a 3 valve 5.4 swap with head work and supercharger if one could.

We will add it to our site in 30 days
@@FatFenderGarage still waiting on flaming river for Charlie Brown 3.0
I'm trying to start a project truck to put a coyote woth twin turbos on any advice on a truck I should pick
Do you or will you guys sell the removable center floor console? Looks really sharp. Working on a 70 f250
We're definitely considering. Thanks!
Oh Hell Yah!
What steering column did you guys use in this? Is it available on the website?
It'll be available very soon on the site.. Likely In the next week
Are you guys doing mounting brackets for the 7.3
Working on those
7.3 idi
How many inches did you cut off the bed?
Can you do your magic to a 1987 f250?
I always wonder how much such work would cost me if I reach out to you guys.
No love for the 57-60 or 61-66 F series coyote motor mounts??? sweet Dent btw!
Unfortunately not.. Although if you have a 65 or 66 you can use the 67-72 kit! They're the same frames.

Swapping out a Chevy 350 engine in my 79 gmc sierra with a 5.0. Gonna make s lot of people mad
The ashtray should be a cellphone holder and charger...
how is this still a f250???? this truck doesn't have a 3/4 ton rear end and its short as hell.
Should have left it as a long bed.
👍
Amazing truck but those mirrors gotta go terrible.
It looks to long behind the back tires!
Beautiful.
But why the ugly mirrors!?
Yuk!
The mirrors destroy the whole look.
Customer wanted to keep them
Long bed is better !
That’s not a sleeper way to clean
Sorry but running those wheels with the low stance it's not a sleeper by any means.
The toenail says this is a sleeper. Not!!!
Good god why would you leave the gigantic tow mirrors on it...looks horrible
The customer liked them
ｐｒｏｍｏｓｍ
No such thing as normal driving when you have a truck like that.
Um.... how is making it less of a truck add value ? You sound like corporation speak. NO less truck less money.
Fat fender=over priced
Short beds are ridiculous. Your taste is in your mouth.
