Big Block Ranchero UPGRADED But Will It PERFORM?
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 17 ส.ค. 2023
- We take the forgotten factory 429 1973 Ranchero and add some tasty upgrades, including a Quick Performance gear set for the 9" Ford rear end, a new fuel tank, a high-volume fuel pump, a hood scoop, vintage Keystone mags, and a carburetor. Then it's time to see if we can do BIGGER burnouts!

Big cam and low compression? = TUUURRRBO!
I liked the old wheels, but the Keystones are definitely a massive improvement, as is the hood scoop instead of the nostrils.
As for color, I've always thought green looks great on a Ranchero!
no no no red
Forget satin black. Everyone does that. I’d like to see that in a satin burgundy, or satin mustard yellow, or satin dark orange. Would look pretty sweet with your logo in satin white on the side of you ask me.
That low compression would be real good for a little boost
I second this opinion
An S475 turbo and a good blow through carb would be spicy for cheap!
@@greenhillgarage S475 turbo w/intercooler?...I ain't mad.
I second this comment! 😂
Well if you put some smaller heads on it it will pick up the compression up a little bit
The pole barn fleet is getting pretty damn desirable.
It would be cool to go completely through the engine and make it into a sleeper rod. Those rims actually look nice on it. 😊
I would definitely keep & use it as a shop "truck", I love Rancheros!🤠🇺🇸
Your air scoops probably working so good it's pushing plug wires into the exhaust😮
Brother you're amazing! Thank you... Look dude, after my dad had a stroke and massive blood clots because of you know what, our car talk has nearly diminished. My dad loved that 1972 FORD LTD 429...so, in reliving those conversations vicariously thru you. Again... Thank you
Ah man hate to hear that, I'm glad you get something out of this
@@PoleBarnGarage a huge smile, reminiscing of great times. Can't thank you enough.
You gotta love the design of the Ford 9 inch rear end. It was like Ford made them with racing in mind. You can have 2 or 3 third members with different gearing ready to change out in minutes.
I cannot believe how good that hood scoop looks. And I usually hate hood scoops but I like that one
Those tires don't look half bad brother. Definitely an upgrade 👍👍
I was gonna say, it looks absolutely sick with 14"s, like it wants to eat me alive. then haul some mulch.
I would totally rebuild that 429. Increased compression and maybe even a slightly milder cam. Freshened up heads etc. It would run pretty good.
Oooo... That'd be fun.
It would be great, just realistically not very likely. If it were as easy as tossing some smaller chamber heads on I'd probably think about it
@@PoleBarnGarage it does run pretty good right now.
@@PoleBarnGarageMake sure that demon doesn't have the metering circuit adjustment under the air cleaner stud some have it some don't my 830 demon does
@@PoleBarnGarageDo that and see if it helps.
What could be better than a Friday @ the pole barn with Dalton... Thanks for the needed laughs and learning, great work man!
Would look good painted tractor paint white with wood grain shelving paper down the sides.Really needs a trailer hitch. That's a pretty awesome rig. Thanks for posting.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I laughed!! I cried!! I just couldn't help it!!! Been there with the floor jack as an installation nightmare 😂😂😂 you know, the jack & 2x4 go one way, the nuts in your hands go the other, and then; you get "tanked"!!! This is definitely, by far the best channel on TH-cam!!! Thanks for keeping it real! Even if you own "A JAG".😂😂😂
It's tough to stay humble when owning a jaaag, but I try my best
@@PoleBarnGaragelove the vids man
the Jaaaaaaaagggg @@PoleBarnGarage 🤣🤣🤣
@@PoleBarnGarage hehe 😂lol
I so look forward to the day you all are at 1 million subs, and I get to celebrate 🍾 along ❤
Your drops always make me smile with anticipation. Thank you Dalton and crew 😊
Thanks! Not sure we're ever gonna get there but maybe!
@@PoleBarnGarage Yer a pretty likeable/relatable dude i feel like, if the TH-cam algorithm cooperates you got a chance
Dalton will get there....
Youll get there. I pretty much solely watch car youtube for entertainment. Youre my fave because you make me laugh. Im a LS swap and revival guy, but you can only watch that so many times. Holey Goat is the GOAT. Id love to see it eventually but slowly restored like the Silver dollar
Agreed! He does a fantastic job on every video. The "poor guy" can totally relate and he's a lot like I am with the improvisations/McGiver repairs that do work well.
Every old Ford I've dealt with has claimed it were overheating. They just do that. They're not actually overheating, they just say they are. A factory gauge will peg hot as low as 170, and I've seen hot lights come on at about the same. The senders/switches age and don't work properly. I've also seen the cluster voltage regulator get stuck closed and make the gauge read high as well. But if that's the case, the fuel gauge will also read double.
Love the Ranchero and Torino, now ya just need the same body style wagon to complete the set. 😎👍🇺🇸🤘🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I've been trying to buy one in Oklahoma for months! Guy won't respond
@@PoleBarnGarage There's a 72 Gran Torino wagon roller on marketplace in Janesville, WI, time to pull that 460 out of the Merc?
I found your channel about a year a ago with the holy goat compilation video, ive been watching all your content since and it just keeps getting better and better.
Same here man.
Pretty awesome build definitely sounds like you have a super charger under the hood nice power
Same here!
Another awesome episode. The channel is growing faster and faster and you deserve every sub. I'm never not entertained watching these videos.
I'm glad!
Love the channel…. A great balance between fooling around, humour, and undeniable know how.. always pleased when a new vid comes out…cheers from the UK
Much appreciated!
I gotta say this channel is way better then those old school auto tech shows of my youth ha while they still hold a fondness of nostalgia. You got a perfect mix of father son meets pure engineering gold here that’s unmatched!!!
You and Derrick from VGG are my idea of the typical nice-guy American, hats off to you both. FJB!! From Canada.
That Twin Stick fella up your way has some pretty good content as well.
I’ve heard that VGG is actually a Democrat. No idea how much merit there is to that claim though
@@averypavlik7812 i mentioned Garth’s graveyard channel on vice grip garage video saying it was more like VG use to be and that Garth was doing a real giveaway meaning you don’t have to buy his crap to enter. They removed it. So yea that sounds like a democrat to me. Its what they do.
Edited because I got way political, I don’t think we supposed to that but FJB
@@averypavlik7812 Nothing wrong with that.
My membership really is paying off.
Right!? That's what I'm saying
Best dollar I spend every month!
Best content in the auto TH-cam sphere right now.
Hell ya!! Love this channel!!
Love the low buck club!
Sidepipes, and bigger tires in the rear. Give it the 70s street machine vibe.
I’d love to see you chase performance from that 460. I would definitely get myself into this situation expecting power and then realizing I’m not halfway done.
Thanks for a great channel.
My wife and I were just going through your previous videos to find something to watch (since we watched them all a couple times already) then this one dropped. Pole Barn Intuition!
Great stuff, the wheels look okay, about as small as you can get away with. Also hats off to a man doing engine work wearing a crisp, white T! Thanks for bringing us along.
I love these old Rancheros, unlike the Elcaminos you rarely see these. For a shop truck it will probably do fine as it is, maybe put a larger tire in it because those rims actually look pretty good on it 👍
I've actually used vacuum line and sliced it and used it to border hood scoop but when they have a gap like that it keeps the win or the air from blowing them off in about 100MPH
another good video , and im glad to see you're growing faster and faster each week!
I appreciate it!
Thanks for another great vid - regardless of shop truck or what-have-you, you've gotta get that woodgrain effect on the side panels again! :)
Satin black tractor paint sounds quick and easy. I like it.
I may be insane,but I like the brown. It is fitting for the era. Why not spray it matte brown and do PBG livery in white and gold on the doors?
A little insane, but not a terrible idea
I do like that brown
Maybe Hesston orange?
@@PoleBarnGarage even better do the whole thing with bed liner and have 0 cares about scratches
Awesome video Dalton, I'd love to have an old American barge over here in Ireland but it just wouldn't be practical. Classic cars are mega expensive over here compared to the US.
I know petrol prices in Ireland are no joke either.
My mum is from Howth and my father is from Donegal I got to go see Ireland twice I love Emerald Isle!!
Ahhh, another great video from PBG to watch on a Friday night after a week of school(or work) to relax the mind.
Thanks Dalton!
Words cannot express... how much The Great Mechanic *loves* this. ❤❤❤❤
Great to see JD helpin’.. I recon the Ranchero Ute is awesome. Very similar to our Aussie XA XB XC Falcon Ute, our utes ran leaf springs in the rear. If the engine is a turd, maybe a 351 Windsor might be a nice “upgrade”. 🇦🇺🤙🏼
Appreciate the content! All your stuff is appointment viewing at my house. You've got a lot of fans in Ohio!
Thanks man! I really appreciate that
@PoleBarnGarage Yessir! You got your swap meet hood scoop expense covered!
I love your videos and its great JD is involved 👍
That Canadian gas tank will be the best part on the car!
Another day, another Dalton shebang...
I do enjoy watching the old videos while having lunch and some during sneeky midnight snack.
I appreciate you and JD having the best father & son relationship and the time do content while working full-time.
Cheers man. God bless.
Always gotta take care your rear end. Nobody else will. Lol.
It’d be cool to see it fixed up a lil like a budget refresh, and a cool shop truck.
That is a super nice rig. Watching you keeps me motivated to one day build my shop.
I also enjoy that after the revival you take the time to build the car/truck out. Rather than just revive and then revive another one. Though I am a very steady Junkyard Digs/Mook viewer and love watching both channels.
Those wheels look amazing for what you paid for them and they don’t look bad normally
I think it'd be cool to do a mild build on it because it's a ranchero something you don't see everyday
Enhanced fuel toilet looks good Dalton 23:39 @Pole Barn Garage
Definitely casting a vote for a green paint job of sorts! Love the content man! Keep it up!
Next Ranchero video: Burnouts with 1200 lbs of mulch
Then after that "I broke the 9" in the ranchero "
If you decide to keep the Ranchero, it would definately need to be painted. That would make a world of difference. The wheels are OK since they're chrome, but you're right in the fact that it needs taller tires.
good thing that speedo reads high now, with the changed gears and smaller tyres 😉😉😉
The wheels were a great upgrade for that price. A set of pop ups or a junk yard turbo feels correct for that cruck. Fleet is getting big, congratulations.
Dalton just curious, how many of us are in the low buck club? It’s well worth it btw.
I think 700? Ish
700? That’s stupid. For the price it should be 3 or 4 times that. Part of the issue is you tube doesn’t make it super intuitive to join. I’m an IT guy by trade and it pissed me off finding it. Still with as many subscribers if you have a few thousand that would really help. People watch this stuff for free with limited commercials. The least they can do is give a little back.
You did well my friend! She is a keeper!
Whadda ya think about mellow yellow??? Or a neon red?
Best part is the youngster just getting a good shot of the tank about to fall instead of helping
Not bad for a factory 211 horse 429!! I hope to see this beast get rebuilt and make some good power. Man, it just hit me, turn this into a burnout competition rig!! Appreciate you guys!!!
You know since becoming a Jaaaaag owner Dalton is really beginning to lose touch with the common man... I mean there's no way any of us could afford a $5 scoop & $10 of fibreglass putty. 😂
I was going to comment on a previous Ranchero video that it sounded pretty rough at higher rpms. I'm concerned that when the previous owner fitted the cam he did the right thing and completely ignored upgrading the valvesprings to suit. It's a common issue with Cleveland V8s here in Aus and if you feel motivated could be an interesting video for the channel.
It didn't seem to be breaking up anymore, I attributed that to starving for fuel
@@PoleBarnGarage well that's good to hear. As for the truck a quick coat of tractor paint and perhaps a rebuild of the 429 down the track, I for one would definitely be interested in seeing that being an 'engine guy' and a Ford one to boot.
I'd say Green would be a great color for it, and I can't wait for the bed floor repair
Nobody paints cars green anymore, might be neat.
@@PoleBarnGaragedecal it like a small business truck
@@PoleBarnGarage I'll be waiting then
Interesting fact. The wood grain starting in 73 was semi transparent so the color partly shows through. They mentioned this as a new feature in their ads. I am not sure if it is a good thing. I think it would be good if the main color is something like gold. But not so sure if it is a dark color, especially if it isn't a shade of brown.
Thanks for the Fun Facts about the Starsky and Hutch Torino. I figured there was something going on with that Malaise era car burning out like a dragster. Of course they used special gears to make it burn out. I am loving those new tires and wheels. That Ranchero is looking really cool. I also like those 68 Mustang Scoops. and satin black is perfect. I would also try to find some fake wood trim to make the driver side look like the drinker side.
Dalton, I never loved these. But know little, so finding out with you & JD... the stable has many personal favorites. You are moving fast & kicking ass on the Ranchero😊
You are really making me consider buying a old clapped out crap box and just have fun with it till it explodes. The combined look of excitement and fear is convincing me. Awesome video!
Potato potato potato potato potato potato potato potato
Fords are a bargain in vintage cars and Rancheros top the list of great deals.
That torino would look good in the starsky and hutch paint skeme 😊
It's amazing how installation order matters on so many things, like filler necks and tanks...😜
I am thrilled that parts of the JAG are still alive (gas tank)
Only if you had a Holley 750 manual secondarys and a 8.5 power valve it would be a whole different animal
Sanding the hell out of fiberglass on top of your air cleaner means you’ll always be one of us. Even if you own a jaaag.
That Ranchero would look good Dark green with a black Boss Ford type stripe kit.
Appreciate a fellow electrician using high voltage klein’s…… nice!!!!
That undercarriage is Pristine and nice 800 demon Carb sweet 3:70 Gears Nice Dalton 13:09 @Pole Barn Garage
I love those old rancheros!!! I say fix her up in to a nice spicy shop truck... Do one of your famous rebuilt on a budget rebuilds on her.. Paint her Ford blue with white.
I was wondering if you used Self-Tappers on the tail gate? 🤣🤣 Great video! Keep up the great work 👍👍
My Front custom Ifs diff with arb air locker came from east coast gear supply in a 5 gallon home depot bucket and so did the rear 3rd memeber i had custom built with arb locker for my 4th gen 4runner came in a menards bucket which was cool because i dont live near a menards Dalton 15:28 it's just a gear supply thing I think sending them in buckets @Pole Barn Garage
I found your channel on Friday and have been binge watching since. Great channel and great family.
Hey Dalton, your explanation of the 3 holes on the Edelbrock accelerator pump prompted me to check the 1 on my s10 v8, because it was drinking gas, low and behold it was in the top ,so I skipped the middle 1 and put the arm in the bottom and now the truck is way more responsive and seems to not be drinking so much gas, thanks for that info and keep the videos coming
This is quickly becoming my favorite automotive TH-cam channel.
Thanks man
I think it looks really good. I like how it looks like it’s been around the block a few times.
Your craftsmanship is legendary!!! 😂. 🤘
Vinegar is cheaper than diesel. It has worked on so many things I never thought it would fix. I will keep saying it because it works fantastic.
And watching you juggle the tank, it made me think of trying to jam the tank into an 88 Camaro turdcicle.
I like the new tires and wheels on a whole lot more than the old set. It seems to get up and boogie pretty well 👍 keep up the great work Dalton and the cool videos ✌️🇺🇲
Air shocks helped a lot on my '70. It was real tail dragger.
According to the interwebs, the hole closer to the fulcrum on the accelerator provides a bigger shot, not the one farther. And that makes sense to me.
The one further away applies pressure sooner, neither one provides a bigger shot, because it's limited by the orifice size but sooner and later
that brand new rad cap may be the undoing of the shop
During installation on anything on a vehicle i swear The Nuts or bolts always run away with shame 😂😂 Dalton 2:35 it's a Automotive Thing Bro @Pole Barn Garage
WoW awesome job brother the truck looks mean excellent job well done keep up the great content from a rust bucket to a beautiful truck 😊😊
As a fellow Missourian I congratulate you on the most Missouri TH-cam channel around. Common sense car repairs for the common, and poor, man. 😂. Keep up the good work!
I've always wanted a big block El Camino like the one in the movie Dazed and Confused, but I'd definitely take a big block Ranchero
Love to see this in a 2 tone paint job like the original.
I love this channel because this is how normal people work on cars. Oil everywhere, “good enough”, and gallows humor. Reminds me of how I grew up
Another good one Bud keep it up. I love how you find the deals and they always end up good.
Loving all the videos Mr Barn Garage, I appreciate the effort it takes to keep these cars alive and kicking. Just snagged myself a hat to bolster up my lid collection. Ever pondered selling merch with the self tappers reference? Maybe a coffee mug with a self tapper on it, maybe a Tshirt with a self tapper or "Just gonna shoot a self tapper in" across the front/back?
My dad never ever ran a thermostat in his old trucks. The heater never worked and his philosophy was that was the only use it had. Right or wrong I saw trucks run years and years with no issues.
I love everything you did to it! Far as anything further, I say leave it alone--great performance for its age and budget and it's definitely improved with what you did. Leave it alone, it makes for a great shop truck.
This video was hilarious. Definitely makes me want one now!
Definitely keep it as a shop truck. Very cool little hot rod! Make it a dependable daily and drive the snot out of it, then when she really starts crying for a rebuild, throw some corn at her and give her the donkeys!
Brilliant , I hade a 76 back in 1980 , powerfull car/truck.
A cheap choo choo boi on there would be pretty fun!
23:09 I lost it at "Fuel toilet" lol. Definitely gotta call em that from now on, lovin the big block ford stuff keep em comin
Freshen the old motor up! Up the compression, headers, and matching cam. Top it off with Matt black paint to make your wheels stand out. You have a great start. 👍👍
