  • I've got a Sawzall and a fresh pack of blades... Can I cut up a Ford Explorer in a weekend? Part 2 of the '53 Ford build.

    I found your channel back during Power Tour ‘23 now I’m going back and catching up on the classics. Good stuff.😊

    As a matter of fact it is. I’m surprised how durable that little thing is I’ve had it for years

      Harbor Freight Sawzall. I've had mine for at least 14 years and about 4 years ago I bought another one for backup both are still working great. But I also have 2 DeWalt cordless ones that are awesome. Keep up the great job I'm enjoying the videos.

    Could this be done with a 2004 Explorer?

    Is this frame swap the same for a 55 f100?

    • @ridgerunnergarage
      @ridgerunnergarage  Před rokem

      Yes, it should be… everything I buy for the ‘53 project seems to say ‘53-‘55.

      I have seen people use all years but I like the 97-01 had the GT40 V8. It’s only a bit over 200 hp stock but there’s all kinds of aftermarket stuff available. Also, 2wd in the south are very cheap.
