There's a huge difference between working on this versus a random flipper. This could very well be your best content because this truck has the best story. Pour your heart into this one.
The rolls was really cool but I have to say this f100 is by far my favorite project so far I really Hope even after your done fixing it we continue to see it on the channel!!
The rear main seal is only half of what seals the rear main on an FE. There's also the rubber seals with nails on the sides of the main cap. Those leak when they get old too. Good luck with whatever that sneaky pete tool is, because that main cap is coming off lol.
@@MattsRageFitGarage The sneaky pete tools allows you to pull the block half of the rope seal out and pull a new one back in, the main cap is removed but the crank stays in.
@@kennethclifford1863 Now it makes sense. The way he wrote his comment made it sound like he could get it out without taking the engine half apart. No way! lol
Love that the truck is still in the family. This is a small thing but I love how the factory workers markings (36 number, etc) are still on the firewall. If nothing else just cover them with flat clear so they don't get removed by accident. Keep the cool videos coming!
Having your grandfather’s pickup truck, that just priceless. Go slow, do it right. Who knows, there may be a son or grandson in your future that would love to have that truck too!
Really looking forward to watching you get this one up and running. That horn switch reminds me of when I was an MP in Vietnam. Our jeeps had 3 floor switches - starter, high beams and the switch that our motor pool added for the siren. I still remember the hilarity that ensued when a new 2nd Looie took one of the jeeps to the PX. When he went to leave it took him forever to figure out why the siren went off every time he stepped on the "starter". That's the kind of thing that sticks in a guy's memory for over 50 years . :)
When a radio isn't used for a long time, the capacitors dry out. Try leaving it turned on for a few hours (key in accessory position) & (volume turned down) and the caps "may" start healing.
My 1st car was my Dad's 1965 Ford Country Sedan Station Wagon. Yes...I built it. Yes...I raced it. Yes...IT WAS FUN! We got it when I was seven. I took ownership when I was 15 and had it until I was 27. MAN, I miss that car! I also owned a '65 Galaxie. Not as much fun but a close second. The interior of the pick up looks SO MUCH like the interior of the Wagon, I'm having flash backs! haha! The bench seat is almost the same. I had the EXACT steering wheel wrap. The shifter position "window" is the same. Yeah, man. I love your truck. Treat it good and it will treat you good in return. Have fun. It's good to see this old iron being taken care of. Be safe, stay healthy.
Love the truck the fact that it was your grandpa’s truck and was handed down to you and will now receive much love and care the old girl deserves looking forward to further vlogs on the truck JR
I have a '64 f100 from my Dad that is an old Tropicana truck. He picked it up in WA. state and drove back down to FL. with a way too have truck camper on. Your video is inspiring me to get it running again this summer!
Ah the old EXP. That car's build was actually what brought me to the channel. I don't drive myself, nor do I know jack about working on cars but I always enjoy watching since it shows how much you love what you're doing here. Good to see the ol' beastie again :)
I wanted a Craig Stereo in my 65 so I moved the radio to a spot under the right side of the instrument cluster. I moved the other knob items like the cigar lighter and vent knob to the left and right of the radio. Then, I cut a hole in the dash and mounted the Craig in place where the radio was previously located. I then trimmed it out with a chrome border and it really looked cool, especially at night when it lit up the interior. I put speakers in both doors and above the rear upper corners of the cab. Then I added a spray on vinyl white top so the truck was blue with a white top. Then I put mags on it and a chrome headache rack. I topped it off with roll and pleated seats. It was a beautiful machine and my girlfriend loved it. I was a perfect setting for parking on quiet country roads, if you know what I'm saying.
I personally love this type of video from you John. The R8 will be cool, but it is content like this that makes me smile. Old steel is so much better than new plastic.
That is so cool that you have your granddad's old truck. I did a frame off restoration on a 66 Chevy PU back in the day and that was a great old truck, but it did not have the cool history your old Ford does, that is priceless.
I found John's Channel, JRGO, from his appearance on 'Hoovies Garage' last year. I loved Hoovie, but his channel has lost it's charm now for me and has become too much about exotics and 'get me to a million subscribers' sadly. 'WatchJRGGO' is the best and it's so engaging, I am really hooked because it is the most entertaining and educational car TH-cam channel for me! Thanks for all the hard work John! Love from Australia and keep on what you are doing, it's just real!!!!
I found JR the same way, and I still love Hoovie's videos. He also introduced me to The Car Wizard, whose channel is equally entertaining (and informative!)
Glad you're finally doing this truck. I have a 65 custom cab too, but it's got the original 352, 3 on the tree, Raven black, and it's a short bed.. it's been sitting for awhile... I'll be following this closely.
Hi, JR. From a production value standpoint this is the best video you've done. It adds so much to see you walking around and gesturing. I know you can't always have a camera man but it really adds a lot! 😀 BTW the lighting inside the building was superb...
What a gem, you are so lucky. Your grandfather was a pretty cool dude setting that truck up the way he did. I don't like beige for a color but it looks great on that truck. I am going to enjoy watching you rebuild that beautiful rig.
Loving the new content style (no selfie sticks/vlog angles). Really interested to see how this project tracks along, it looks beautiful and the family history/connection you have to it will make the rebuild more special and the content more interesting to all of us I think!
It was the Ford EXP video you made that drew me to your channel. I rented one many years ago. I liked it. The EXP video was so good I subscribed. Your channel is one of the best car content on youtube! Thanks
"What needs * fixed" "What needs * done" "Hoses need * replaced" "Honestly, the whole engine needs * resealed"??? To be, or not to be, THAT is the question.
@@1chi No, it's the erosion of our language by the younger generation. The 30-year-old across the street from me speaks like that. The only reason I haven't pounded some sense in to him is that he owns eight pre-1980 Ford trucks.
Discovered your Channel while "Social Distancing", Thanks for helping us through the Corona Madness! Haven't worked on cars in awhile, starting to get back into it, with my '11 Expedition. The Car my Granddad left me is a 1969 Mercury Marauder...May film that makeover when I start that project.
Love the big teardrop wheel wells. I owned my grandpa’s 1973 Ford pickup for a while and drove it out to school. Had 2 tanks. Couldn’t tell if I was watching the fuel tank needle or the second hand on a clock the way it sucked down gas. Looking forward to this build.
6:30 wow is that radio a tube radio!? old tubes take a while to warm up and you get delay. Could be a leaky cap too on it's way out I suppose... but yeah it may need parts. I'd toally get it fixed vs replacing the unit though that thing is mint.
Very nice truck.Glad to see you're just doing re-seals and trying for as original as possible.TIP;When you store stuff like that,put a tire block down so you'll know where it goes when you roll it about to keep stuff free and greased.
I'm looking forward to seeing how this old girl turns out and I'm glad you're keeping her original and not dropping in a LS with twin turbos and a supercharger and nitrous.
I'm so glad you started it because this video was looking like the last one where you did nothing to it. Sorry, I am just excited to see you start working on this thing because it is super cool.
It helps that it's 30fps too, the 60fps videos sacrifice the shit out of the bitrate and look awful. You'd think it's 2020 and time for google to upgrade the bitrate a little but whatever.
Regardless of the bad internals, that truck is in nearly mint condition interior and exterior wise. I have a feeling this will get you more views. It's so nice that words can't really describe it! 👍
I was just watching your last video and I was thinking to myself that I wish the next video was already out and I refresh your feed and boom there it was 😂
Keep it up John Ross. Been waiting on this. Agree on the foam cannon approach. Maybe in a space that is up to temp so makes it easier to dislodge the stuff from the paint. Keep it from doing any damage to the finish.
My first truck was a 64 w/292Loved it ! It had the built in steps , so cool 😎 and my brother has the 63 unibody w/352? and a 65 w/390. All f100’s 2x . My dad has a 65 3/4 w/300 ! All greats trucks ! We owned the same time, plus we had a 66 parts truck ! I miss them all! Thanks for the video! It made me think of my next truck I want now 👍
Mechanical choke if it's hooked up probably. Find the choke knob and pull it all the way out and it will start. Well looks like you found it, watching as I type this. Try about 3/4 out and it should run ok till it starts to warm up. If that's a big block I'd be surprised if it has a C4 as I'm pretty sure they never used those behind a BB. Might want to consider a disk brake conversation from a later similar pickup while you're at it. I got everything I needed out of a 75 4 door Dart I bought for 150 years ago and drove home. Good luck, it'll be sweet when it's sorted.
Cool wheels. Looks like a great project. You can still find R12 on the market, but it is extremely expensive. There is, however, a R12 drop in replacement FR12, also known as R416A. FR12 was developed to replace R12 in automotive applications, and is excellent in hot kitchen applications for older refrigeration systems.
At your local John Deere dealership you can get Envirosafe Freon. It's usable in both R12 and R134 systems and you can also get a sealant to help keep the freon in the system.
New subscriber and fan of your channel as of a few days ago. Love your videos and what you do. This is a great thing with that F100, I am looking forward to seeing more of this beauty. Not a big Ford fan but they did make some really good trucks back when this was brought out. Thanks for the videos, they are fun and entertaining to watch!
Just watched this after I got my dads old truck running again after sitting for years. Irony transmission giving the same issue as yours. Hoping to get a gas tank on it soon to start driving it again
How in the world, with all of the previous projects on here, did you JUST give us this amazing vehicle. Great, simple machine. I can't wait to see it finished. It might make me forget about the Rolls and Camaro, but probably not lol.
Video quality and sound seems very different in this video, comes across as a professional prod/edit. Keep up the good work, love watching your videos!
man that F100 is a beutiful truck deserves the love shes going to get my dad has one like this one its been a little covid corintine project to get it up and running again its been sitting for a good 20 years in the garage so time to get it alive and driving once again along with my grandfathers 29 nash lite six lol gotta be at something during these times of isolation lol

I LOVE this truck ! I drove a '68 Ranger thru HS , grad ' 73 . Wished a million times I hadn't traded it off.
the rolls Royce made me nauseous, I like the truck way way more.
Those old rear main seals can be removed with a device called a "Sneaky Pete" seal remover with out taking it apart.
Greg M www.amazon.com/Lisle-27000-Sneaky-Pete-Tool/dp/B0002SRCJW
Was just going to say the same, still a pain but less work than pulling the crank. Last time I used one was 1996.
The rear main seal is only half of what seals the rear main on an FE. There's also the rubber seals with nails on the sides of the main cap. Those leak when they get old too. Good luck with whatever that sneaky pete tool is, because that main cap is coming off lol.

Everyone needs a friend like Josh. Tools to share, nice garage to share, and super hard working on other folks cars.
Granddaddy was a man ahead of his time. I see a Tesla pickup in your future.
My grandfather also gifted me with a 1966 ford pick-up, custom cab. Can’t tell you how meaningful this story is. Thank you for this vid!
Love that the truck is still in the family. This is a small thing but I love how the factory workers markings (36 number, etc) are still on the firewall. If nothing else just cover them with flat clear so they don't get removed by accident. Keep the cool videos coming!

this would be by far the best project. you should go all out on this project
Back when cars and trucks were practically bullet proof. LOVE IT!
SO looking forward to seeing this brought back to its glory.

Hell of a truck. This will be a good series.
I got an oreily ad about their batteries right when it turned on 😂
@The Voice Of Reason I got one about curbside pickup... for FREE! Oh fuckin boy.

Love those old Ford trucks. Learned to drive standard on one of those trucks! 66 Mercury, 6 cylinder and 3 on the tree. Memories! Love the videos!
That's a stunning truck, looking forward see the work being done and the end result. Stay safe from UK

I wonder if you could send the radio to Shango066 for repair? He’s all vintage repair videos.

Cool wheels. Looks like a great project.
You can still find R12 on the market, but it is extremely expensive. There is, however, a R12 drop in replacement FR12, also known as R416A. FR12 was developed to replace R12 in automotive applications, and is excellent in hot kitchen applications for older refrigeration systems.
Such a nice paint color combo.
what a fantastic truck. absolutely beautiful
When you turned the radio on, I expected "Help me, Rhonda" to blast out.
Glad to see the truck and the exp
At your local John Deere dealership you can get Envirosafe Freon. It's usable in both R12 and R134 systems and you can also get a sealant to help keep the freon in the system.

That's one good looking truck
I’ve been using “enviro-safe” on all my r12 vehicles and it works great. Cools better than converting to r134.
Hey JR... the tires have a date code stamped into them, usually right after the serial number!
0968
Very cool video JR!!
John Ross you are a tease !!!! MY EXP deserves to have a trickle charge on her !!!! Lol great video man thanks
Can't wait to see what you do to this truck I'm so excited I love to see Restorations an old school vehicles so excited
One of my favorite projects you have attempted yet.
This truck is going to make for some great content!!!
Subscribed. I love old Ford (or any brand) trucks. That big FE was the workhorse back in the day.
This project earns a notification
Love those EXP and LN7s
How in the world, with all of the previous projects on here, did you JUST give us this amazing vehicle. Great, simple machine. I can't wait to see it finished. It might make me forget about the Rolls and Camaro, but probably not lol.
Nice truck. I had a 1968 Mercury M-100. 300 cu inline-6. 3 on the tree. Couldn't get over 70 mph. But ran beautifully. Only 80,000 miles on her 👍
This is my favorite build going right now.
I have a 67 Ford F-250 with a 300 inline 6cyl and a T 18 Borg Warner 4 speed trans. Still runs and drive like a champ
Video quality and sound seems very different in this video, comes across as a professional prod/edit. Keep up the good work, love watching your videos!
Enjoyed the video, love the truck.
Remember, I mentioned in one of your previous videos, my grandparents had a 1966 Fairlane.
man that F100 is a beutiful truck deserves the love shes going to get my dad has one like this one its been a little covid corintine project to get it up and running again its been sitting for a good 20 years in the garage so time to get it alive and driving once again along with my grandfathers 29 nash lite six lol gotta be at something during these times of isolation lol
Looking forward to this!
These "everything that's wrong" videos are a great shout out for free parts.
