I’d say a steamer would help form the carpet in place. Worth a try.
Looks great. If the carpet is really bugging you, get some double sided carpet tape and use where you need it. It holds strong and unlike glue, you can take the carpet out without ruining it if you ever need to. If you do that , give the carpet a couple of days (preferably warm days) to let it settle before putting the tape on.
On a side note, I recently found your channel and have enjoyed watching it. As an older guy that has been working on one project or another for the last 30 years, it's cool to see a younger generation taking an interest in older vehicles and actually repairing them. Too many "car enthusiast" today, young and old, just want to bolt on aftermarket stuff and would be at a loss if they ever stumbled into a junkyard. Keep up the good work.
I should be buying back my 1976 F100 soon
Funny thing is im buying it back cheaper than i sold and the last owner has done wiring work to it
So total WIN
This is what I need to do to my f100!!! once I’m old enough to get a job I’m going straight to it and getting the work into it. Love your videos they really put me into the mood on working on my f100 also yours looks like mine lol
Keep up the good work! U should do a fiberglass repair on ur dash and add filler sand and paint it will be like new. Use glue on the carpet after the summer or towards the end so it can take the wrinkles out the summer will help
The viewer that said use steam was spot on and while it is still warm and damp put weight on it for a couple of days. On the dash if you want to make the crack less noticeable use some black RTF and wipe it off except where it fills the crack. RTF will stay flexible even with the hot sun. If you want to use some spray adhesive someplace use it on the gas tank between the seats to cover up the gas tank to a point halfway behind the seats. Looks good keep rolling.
The transformation of this truck has been realy cool good vids man
Just bought my f100 1978. has 351c inside and these videos are helping out as im young & dont know fu** all lol. soooo yeah much appreciated dude
also question to anyone: The outer shell of my f100 has rust around it. how do i repair it? Im willing to do it myself as i like to appreciate it more when done by yourself like this dude ( Craig ) FYI Im young and dont know anything about cars. cheers
Thank you. The truck is looking great.
Always enjoy seeing the notification for a new video to see what your up to
Your key chain will love removing the paint around the ignition.
your are right about that one haha
Use a small amount of resin use a box cutter knife blade and fill it in like body filler and then what you could do get body filler put a little bit on the dash sand smooth then what you could do is bedline it they have in rattle cans then spray it with that 4 easy better-looking Dash just an idea
Hey man you've actually inspired me to perfect my truck and to do it the right way and if elmer's glue is all you had to work with it'd be perfectly understandable a lil weird but hey a true diy'r works with whatever he/she has.
Nice work , you have a nice and reliable ride and you are keeping Old School alive , Build On and you can get a kit to fix that crack
Craig! The carpet really made the look of your truck. It's getting there "One piece at a time".
Truck looks so sick dude keep it up!
Also on holes for carpet, heat up a tapered drift punch and itll melt it to the size of the bolt hole and leave an even edge that wont fray
right on man hope all is well . i literally did the same thing to my 67 f100 swb and saved thousands
Happy to see you fixing this truck up right.
Looks awesome man!!👍
Nice! As a few others stated paint the column black, and hit the carpet with a heat gun to help it lay better. Great job!
the piece you made for the radio speaker is a nice touch, I think it would look great if you did the same for the heater vents, nice work
HOLY FLIP YES PLEASE LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!
I like the Patina! I have a red patina 78 F150 I love it.
Nice interior.
JC Whitney sells a ABS plastic dash cover cap. It goes right over your factory dash and in my opinion looks really good. It’s $130
love it great job
Interior turned out great
For plastics and metals use polytrol by owatrol.... it's one of the best detailing things I've ever purchased.
I was the same way with my 66' Chevelle SS but once the seats, trim, shifter & boot go in the carpet will settle ! Plus you are looking from 6" to a foot away.... once it's done it will be 3 feet plus so you will never notice ! Give it a couple of months it will fit perfect ✌😎
Good luck... it's not a Chevy but you can't have everything 😉 Sweet truck man !
Love the vids brother
I like the chromed plate, At first I thought " Black it out" but you know it looks good. The carpet , boy makes a difference. If you want to trim it out by the firewall to give it that edge, do it, if not , man one cool project... and I like the way you edit your videos..., keeps you engaged. Oh P.S. say hello for me to the warm weather...
I bought the new Dash, my original was all cracked and soomeone glued it down years ago. I'm a product of " well since I'm here".
If you look on Ebay there is a replacement dash for your truck I all ready put it in my 68 f100 and it fits great and looks really good.
I got my heater hoses from lmc truck. They worked amazingly and were pretty cheap
Wow! The interior looks sharp ass hell! Looks better than factory!
I'm restoring a 72 F-100 Custom with my dad. The previous owner McGyver'd a shitton in it, it's like opening a really crappy treasure chest every time we work on it. 🤣
To repair your dash have you thought about using an automotive vynal and use heat stable contact adhesive to cover over the brittle original dash? You could also try using a steamer to relax the new carpet to help it lay flat.
Looks good bro
There is a repair gel for plastic / naugahyde that's supposed to make cracks disappear...
Seeing how your going for the whole ford thing with mustang seats, there is a company called pony parts who makes a center console for those seats that would look perfect in your truck. It's called the Classic Humphugger Console for all 1965-1973 Coupe and Fastback Mustangs without a Factory Console.
Use 5 lb weights in the corners of your carpet it'll hold them carpet down in the place where you want overnight at most and if all else fails you can use carpet drive nails in your corners
Listen to her purr! 😍😍😍😍😍
to fix that crack real easy just use some black RTV. take a old tooth brush and gently clean it out.spread it out thin but just over filling it. let it set up some and whip it flush with your bare finger. then take the brush and tap it brush down and it will look like the pattern grain.after a day or two even you will forget about it. and the RTV will not expand and fall out and keep it glued together..i fixed 3 large cracks on my 89 lincoln
Hey just a heads up when I was building my C10 my Dash was cracked couldn't find one didn't want to pay a bunch of money they sold which is LMC salt cells the Caps that go over the dash boards there a plastic piece there texturized in the top looks just like the dashboard LMC had it for the C10 Chevrolet they got to have it for the Ford
You should be able to buy a plastic dash pad cover that glues right over the top of dash pad. And they usually fit real nice.
And you're doing a good job so long as your happy with whatever you do forget what most of everybody says you're shit is looking fresh!!!!!
Every Ford pickup I've had has a speaker cover like that. I just attach an aftermarket speaker grill. 6x9 works great.
you could use carpet tape in those areas where it doesn't lay totally flat. its basically just thin double sided tape, but comes off easily if you ever do need to take it back off
use double sided carpet tape on the sections you dont like the fitment or wrinkling. it can be removed if you have to take out the carpet
Hay Craig i have 68 ford 250 4x4 with 6bt cummins i have a old detail trick for the old plastic on these old trucks i use peanut butter it sounds crazy but it works the oil in it brings back the shine in it . rub on and let it sit and wipe off
Moisturizer does the same trick. Apply, wipe and buff. Shines it up as well.
I would do the top of the firewall right above the carpet satin black then it won't stand out so much just my opinion but I think you've done an amazing job , I really like the videos
Yo love the vids on the truck should keep it up got my 83 f-150 doing some slow process but gonna get here also thinking of coyote swapping my truck what yaw think
Use a soldering iron to poke holes for for seat bolts it's easier.
hey there ol cool hot rod trucks all have some sort of minor crack's in the dashes u just have to look 4 them...... try not to stress over it....focus the stress in the school work so u can continue to pass the class's.............
I pulled a pristine dash pad out of a 70 skylark in the junkyard. Put in the wheelbarrow and started heading up to pay. By the time I got to the counter, it was cracked😞
Use black RV silicone for the crack, then clean off any smudges with alcohol/rag. Will look alot better!!
Gonna look awesome in there when it’s all buttoned up!! You’re putting this body on the chassis you’re modifying?
Paint your firewall above the carpet with bedliner
dumbest shit i ever heard
Fill and smooth the crack and spray the whole dash with vinyl black spray paint won’t be as good as a new dash but worth a go!
Don’t forget that new shifter! Still anticipating it!
They have vinyl repair kit to match the grain of your dash , if done correctly you’ll never see it ! I have repaired dashboards before with this product and Black is the easiest. The heat should take care of the carpet .
Looking good! What color are you going to paint it?
You should get a respray... maybe cherry red with the top half of the cab white, idk anything is fine
Hey Craig .. looking forward to some new vids. I watch Roadkill, DED, Nicks Garage, and you .. keep up the good work. Why not home port your GT40P's ?
Love the truck, you should look for a bench seat
Sand the edges of the crack to flatten it, then Bondo, sand and vinyl paint the dash. You'll get decent results for MUCH less than a new dash cap.
The chain you have hanging next to the hood release. Is that a safety so it can't pop open? Can u show how that works? Mine popped open going 35mph
Come ON!! we, I so want to see you install the headliner. their a PITA! :) do you plan to get the TMI sport seat covers?
Did your carpet kit have the padded mass backing on it? That could be why it’s loose in some spots, I had that issue with an older Volvo wagon i had
Nice job would like to know how much this has cost you including buying the truck
that piece you made may be a tad too big and opening up the crack more. I would paint the new piece black so it doesn't stand out and get vinyl repair black to fix the crack.
FLEX SEAL ON THE DASHHHH hahahha
I’m curious and maybe it’s obvious but I’m not sure, is it still a matching numbers truck with new seats, carpet, steering wheel, etc.
Look on ebay there is original ford dash pads in good condition for around $120
Next needed thing, black steering column no shifter mechanism!
Spay paint original in the mean time
@@fordprerunner2004 agreed
I like the seats what are they out of
Are you going to build a center console with cup holders
What video editing program do you use and do you use Win10?
Is there anywhere to buy the trim peace’s that hold down the carpet
The - idea looks nice should have did the other 2 air vents
hey craig what do you think of the black dash pad covers on npd I have a 1971 f100 ranger the vin is blank on color I think that's because its tu-tone highland green and white it has been repainted a darker green but the original color shows through I think highland was a special color not standard and its got green interior like how yours did, its got the green dash pad that's all cracked up a black seat and green and black door panels I would like to get door panels like yours. so do you think its worth it to get the 126 dollar cover to hide the green nasty dash or should I just buy a whole new black one for 500?
everyone needs to see u put in the headliner
Couldn’t you use Velcro strips that are like 4” wide that could flatten those bubble spots in the carpet...it’s easy to take out too
Again, you’re worrying about something that you’re not really going to notice in a few short months. I’m betting that you’ll sell the truck in less than a year from now, after you’ve moved on to another project, most likely to help pay for that next project.
Take that dash pad out go get some vinyl or some fabric and redo it not that hard it looks really bad with that crack
James Cooper is right. If the cracked dash pad is that annoying,then recover it. It’s an inexpensive fix, and you’ll find it educational and fulfilling that you did it yourself, rather than go out and spend $400 on something that you’ll eventually not really notice anymore, or sell later on.
to add to an old thread. you could alway flock the dash pad
What vehicle did the seats come out of I have 1971 f100 that's what I would like to put in my truck
Good to know I’m not the only one with a bumpside that was owned by someone who dropped out of electrician trade school before lunch the first day 😂
Are those seats out of a bronco how about putting in a rear mounted gas tank that fits inside the frame rails
You should put some paint over the rust spots.
Suggestion: Recover the dash cover when you reappolster the seats.
Lol. That has got to be the absolute worst spelling I have seen. Did your computer or device not offer a correct spelling? Was it so far off it couldn't even suggest an alternative?
Here, try this...."upholstery".
Edit: The verb tense you need is "reupholster".
Not my input!
I'm more of a keyboard mechanic than anything but is there a reason your distributer vacuum line isn't hooked up?
Where do you get that kind of carpet from?
Are the door panels original or did u buy them ?
where did you get your gauge cluster?
Just epoxy the crack and wrap the dash in some vinyl using spray adhesive
Hay man how do you get the ignition switch out of my dash I have a 78 supercab help thanks
there is an outer nut. take 2 flat head screw drivers put then in the groves and push or tap really gently with a small hammer. u may need son vice grips to hold the back nut. if it tough hit it with some wd
Get a dash pad. Looking good.
I thought you traded the green seat belts for black ones?
i think he did but he didnt change them out yet
Fix dash put a black liner on back wall new seat upholster
Idk why buy ive always wanted one of these trucks even though im a gm guy and put a police crown vic motor in one of these
