2:42 "Nobody buys an old truck like this to win a drag race." Oh? Never heard of the Farm Truck have you?
ShadowKnight7171 hey
What marvel central said
Was that the oldest running dodge they could find?😂😂😂
Ha
I think that dodge might have had a 3.9 swap at some point. Slow slow
I have an 87 dakota runs better than most trucks out there and uts a work truck
@@MustObeyTheRules have you taken it to mexico amd back and not have to anytning but an oil change and the regular maintenance to it? I dont think so. My little dakota still wins. Over 350k on it no engine swap or tranny problems
@@MustObeyTheRules you call it junk but when ypur chevy breaks down youll be asking for a ride. I also have a 2015 ram and contwnt with it as well
that Mr truck guy looks like prospector from toy story
Dennis Malcolm lol he does
Dennis Malcolm I laughed at this for a minute strait!!! Haha
Wow! that Ford was a whole lot quicker than I expected it to be.
Eska 1408 not sure how bad the ford is but its usually better to just start with a truck that isnt rusty.
Eska 1408 I'm surprised as well man.
Eska 1408 I'm not
Those 4.10s really helped it get off the line.
The Ford was lighter due to the missing metal so it was quicker. LOL He even got a jump on the Chevy but was overpowered quickly.
Keep the Ford stock! Just rebuild and refresh the drivetrain. That engine is obviously not something to be thrown away.
Cliff Warren yes it is, it's a ford engine how could you not throw it away?
it may be more expensive to rebuild a ford motor but keep that engine because EVERYONE swaps to a Chevy you never see an old ford motor in a old ford truck, my dad and i kept the ford 352 motor in our '65 f100 and all the car shows we go to people praise us for not swapping to a 350 Chevy, even the Chevy people.
Those old Ford motors are indestructible . The transmissions though?.. Not so much.
So a stock truck VS a truck with big tires and the wrong gears VS a truck with $15K performance work...
Good job by that old Ford, proving the right gears really help get you off the line.
BlueDually4x4 the oldest truck there still has the original engines and still running that why I love ford truck my a little bit newer great work truck
My Ford is peace of junk.
Probably have 4.10 gears. If u running 39.5 tires 4.56 gears works well. 44” tires 4.88’s or 5.13’s.
Probably should take care of it better then.
Emily Coleman = Go bakes some cookies kitten.
Rusty boy is a tough looking truck
70s vs 80s vs 90s!
Crocodine Huizar Oh Yeah!!!!!!!
Dodge was the newest truck there and the Ford still whooped it.
Yes a heavy emissions era Chevy and Dodge versus a right before the emissions cut era for trucks anyway Ford...and the Ford still lost. All the haters will say the chevy has a crate engine, cheaper mods... Maybe if Ford had a plethora of strong small blocks instead of a select few, they could of made affordable power or crate engines too. That's a testament to the SBC.
@@ashes2ashes863 Since when is 1974 "before" the emissions era? Just look at the performance numbers for a 1970 F250 wayyyyy higher. Hell the compression ratios fell massively. And so the Chevy wins with a brand new crate engine over a near 50 year-old emissions choked stock-engine '74 Ford. Yeah really impressive for the Chevy. Try comparing a '74 Ford vs a '85 Chevy stock for stock and do this same test.
@@ashes2ashes863 And Ford does make powerful small block crate engines. The Ford 5.0 Coyote makes the same or more power than a Chevy 5.7 and it does it all with way less displacement.
Rusty boy performed great for 7 cylinders! Hope the other videos come soon!
Between the three... just can't beat the body lines and curves of the Ford. Sweet looking truck.
it may look cool but what im looking for is performance that the chevy
I would take the chevrolet.
brianyzq777 ikr. good choice
CK Knife and Tool im not looking for looks im looking for power ima go with the chevy
The Ford is nice but that Chevys built like a rock 😍
They had to drop 15k into the chevy to take out the old stock F250,
100% fact
And you'd still have to these days!!!
Chevy did it easily
Gave away the hit and still thrashed that furd with authority.
Ford meant business with those holley valve covers. 😆 🤣 🤣 😆
Now, lets see them spend 11 grand on the highboy, a 2016 coyote is around 9 grand :)
Devonte McNeill Then they would have to have someone rebuild the trans and install the motor. That would be about the amount big green has into it. Although I think 15k is a little much for what big green has done.
Devonte McNeill building the 390 would be better
Devonte McNeill I was thinking the same thing 😂 drop when of those in there and it'll whoop everyone's ass for sure. I'm wanting to put one in my '71 F-100
no coyote it would need a crazy amount of work to squeeze one in there with all the computer bs plus they are a wide ass engine. just rebuild that old fe big block
Just switch out the 3,000 pound intake manifold on the Ford. It'll win just from weight loss
3 Completely different years. All beautiful from the big 3.
The Ford, Even with the nasty crusty paint and rust is a hot looking truck. The Dodge with that kinda Semi look is alright. I like square bodied Chevys, But it looks quite plain and ordinary compared to the other two
They need to put some money into the Ford
but keep that old FE block plz k thnx
They need to destroy it
I love Cummins don't talk, you're just a kid.
Nick X I can talk if I want to, freedom of speech
I grew up in the back seat of a 1999 Dodge Ram White extended cab and seeing the ram here made me feel happy my dad used to haul ass in that truck it was a 5-speed.
$15K for all those speed parts and that's the best you could manage against a worn out old Ford? Sounds like a lousy investment to me.
vburke1 I mean it also is a manual which you can't shift fast... I have the same truck with a 350 and you can't speed shift it
Excuses excuses :). Even with slow shifts, Big Green should have left the old Ford WAY in the dust.
See my comment above... wondering what the Ford engine really is... Was expecting a Ford 400"
vburke1 ikr
BuzzLOLOL a peace of crap XD
You guys need to buy that stage 3 big block 460 package that they have at summit racing for 8k and stick it in the Ford.
Love the old fords and chevys!
I really enjoy watching videos of people who know about all types of trucks new and old. Thanks for the awesome videos
Way to go Tommy. Ford Rusty Boy all the Way...... One Coyote Crate engine, some fuel ejection. Even it up a bit. Kents buddy can rebuild the transmission and back to the track and some good ol off roads. Great video.
NonRev that highboy would rape that chevy with a fresh 390.. best generation of fords ever made!
Yes the High Boy is my favorite truck from the seventies. Wish I still had mine.
Brian Desjardins You ain't kidding. Go Rusty Boy!!
NonRev hell better and cheaper yet just build the 390
Meldins STI may as well go all out and build an aluminum Pond block 427 SOHC 😈
$15k worth of motor just to squeak by a beat to hell FE?
Someone got swindled.
Was saying the same thing thats brutal lol
I love Tommy's enthusiasm!
That guy talks so highly of that Dodge yet it always loses 😂
You guys have way to much fun!
That was cool!
Yeah Tommy, that 7 cylinder really put in a surprise run. Get Ford to help you with a new crate engine, and rebuild that trans, you will smoke Dad. All great trucks , lot of fun, love this series you three got going on. 👍👍👍
Lo Chevy has fuel injection and brand new motor. Poor ford running on 7/8 cylinders lol
Dan Smith but you gotta admit that the old ford did really well considering all that. if they did the same thing to rusty boy as they did with big Green (but with a ford crate engine obviously) it'd probably outperform big green.
+Capt, yeah, but those SM465s are not built to speed shift, trust me. They do last forever though... And you can't break them.
Captain Rudy It would outperform Roman not big green. lol
Dan Smith and it was still fairly close to big green
Let's not forget they ditched the 305 in big green because it sucked. Stock vs stock vs stock, the Ford would have dominated.
I love it, I was wondering where big green was. If y'all needed one I have an 83 k20, sm465 for my daily driver, great job, the best channel and tests ever.
Hats off to you all for doing such a fun vid.Like to see more of them .
that Chevy picked up speed so fast haha
must've been a blast with that stick shift! :)
Put 15k into the other 2 trucks and let's see what the results are
Andrew Mendoza They'll still lose. Especially the dodge.
SAME RESULTS CHEVY WINS, NO DIFFERENCE !!!
Those old f100 are tough as hell, my dad still has one in Mexico and it has gone though several years of punishing work and it still runs amazingly well. the sheet metal on those trucks is super strong compared to the flimsy sheet metal of newer trucks.
Y'all managed to get my favorite generation of each one of those trucks!
DID YOU SEE THAT OLD CHEVY DART OFF THE FINISH LINE!!!???? wow alot faster than I thought
Love that ford and chevy.
Great production tommys corrosion made me laugh this is one of the best you guys have done in awhile even Kent was dressed up
I'm a Chevy guy and I'm glad the old square body won, but I was really rooting for the Ford. Those old late 70s ford looked gorgeous. Few of my buddies them back in high school. The ford driver had the right spirit!
the 390 in a Ford truck rebuilt with the right parts is more powerful than what people think I had a stock 390 in a 76 F-150 you get on it you would hit the back window I've also known as 68 Ford with a 352 and a 3 on the floor with Granny gear it it definitely wouldn't let that green Chevy sitting still with all the aftermarket parts That's How Strong Ford motors are if you know what you doing with them the Dodge well that's a different story but all three are great trucks and all three are nice but that Ford is nice
I have a 74 highboy with a 390 and I was thinking what can I do to make it more powerful do you have any suggestions?
Holy crap!!! $15k in the Chevy!!! In the end, its worth half that on the market. The Dodge is a more practical build, but still has a lot of aftermarket mods. Everyone seems to want a crate motor in the Ford. I'd rather see the Ford be the one that doesn't get "molested." Keep it original and just fix it. Rebuild the motor, rebuild the heads and a new timing chain kit. Rebuild the transmission if it needs it. If air flow is still a problem, get a carb spacer, larger intake manifold or even a bigger carburetor. Experiment a little and do a little research with some old school mechanics. But get the parts and do it yourself! For off-road, it might need an oil cooler, an electric engine fan, an electric fuel pump and some upgraded shocks. Again, these simple, minimal and practical upgrades that can be done over a weekend. There's already too many over priced, over modded, mall crawler videos on CZcams. That old Ford is old but a classic. And by keeping it original and putting in the time, you might find it could be worth more than the other two trucks combined. Just my 2¢.
0:40 Kent laughing in the background had me in stitches lol
Awsome video. Need more like this one!
Every time one of these channels does a competition with Ford Trucks they always use a Ford that is the oldest and has the most miles on it against the competition. The same thing was done with those idiots from Top Gear USA when they put a 70's Ford with a high mileage engine against a restored 80's Chevy, against a 90's Dodge Ram. Rebuild that Ford engine or put a crate engine in there and the driver would be at the finish line taking a nap, waiting for the others to arrive. Regardless, I'd still take the '74 Ford as is over anything GM or Dodge has to offer.
Man! Go Thomas!! The high Boy rocked this series. Get Ford to send a crate engine (or do the ERod from GM. Shoot, having a corvette engine in that thing would be pretty wonderful.
That Ford is absolutely beautiful. It's a life goal to get me a truck like that before I finish college.
How do y'all like your FiTech system? Thinking about getting it or the sniper kit
they put 15k into big green and it only beat the Ford by about 1 second?! Perhaps this demonstrates how difficult it can be to dial in your setup, that you really have to know what your doing rather than just throwing cash at the problem.
w.s. corners it is a 350 tbi afterall😂
given the Ford didn't have any mods man it did really good. I love the style from that year too.
Keep the Ike tow test coming!!!! Love that series!! I'm interested to see how the 2017 half-tons compare
So at the end, I respect all parties involved had a chance to do some modification in the future.
I look forward to that next Challenge.
That K10 sounds amazing. And i bet if that Ford had the 460/4-Speed it woulda been fastest.
Lucas Arthurs no shit
460's are complete junk they make torque over power but the fe in the 74 is way better
460's are fantastic. Of course they make torque over anything else, it's a goddamn truck! Not a race car.
Lucas Arthurs I bet that if they didn’t poor 10k into the K10, the Ford would have won.
no ford built uhhhh... nvm there is nothing left
We were rooting for Tommy Boy & the F250, yeah!
Sam Iam yea
It's the one we've been waiting for!
Awesome vid! I have to admit I threw my arms in the air when I saw how well the Ford represented!
That chevy was far from stock so not fair at all
Hayden Medgyesy yup
The Ford engine was also far from stock... he claimed he didn't know if it was a 360 or 390... I wish they had shown the engine better so see if it was even an FE engine... may have been a semi-built 400 or 460... I wasn't expecting an FE engine in a '74...
They did it for fun
Its a 360 a 400 or 460 would be way taller
The Highboy got some go I wonder who would have won if the K10 was stock
No contest, If the K10 had the stock 305 in it, the Highboy would have shit all over it. Even with a 400hp crate engine the K10 was just barely faster.
Cool guys.. what gear ratios are y'all running in those.. that means alot to., I used to be a Gear builder with Roush Fenway racing.. let me know if you want help on that highboy lol
hey tommy what are the plans for the high boy i love that truck hope to see it some more and more
Most of these comments are pro Ford anti Dodge. Where are the bow tie lovers at?
I'm right here buddy bow tie all the wat
Jeff Sartain they are at the bay parade😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@dano198 ford owners talking bout dick again.
In their garage lol
NOTHING BUT CHEVY FOR ME !!!
that ram is slowwww
Big tire and highway gears..He said at the end it was gaining,have a 1/4 mile the Dodge would pass them...Dodge was actually fast,just 0-40 mph it couldnt take off quick due to big tires and highway gearing..
01trsmar the two other trucks had bigger tires and highway gearing. The ram has a smaller engine.
Ford is literally running on 7 cylinders. That's the ultimate excuse to lose...Yet it still smoked the Dodge and kept up with the 400hp Chevy.
Veyronp87 says the slow one
MASON PAYSTRUP Ram had 33"s
What camera do you guys use for the slow motion at the finish line?
a 70's model old school truck held its own against newer school trucks."Respect."
Tommy, you need to stop pumping the throttle every time you start it. Pump it once, then start it. You're flooding it, you can see the black smoke on start up, too much fuel. Could probably use a tune of the carb too, and check timing.
That Chevy is awesome
the look on his face as he realized he was beating the Dodge was priceless.
this is really 3 different eras of truck. idk if it's fair but the content is good
Does Dodgezilla still have the stock 3.55 gears in the axles? It looks like it based on the way it comes off the line. I highly recommend going to 4.10s and also Mr. Truck should adjust the TV cable from the trans to the throttle body to increase the line pressure and make it shift at redline. Those two mods will make all the difference.
Source: I owned a 95 dodge zilla with 35s on a 3 inch suspension lift. 35s and 3.55s were a dog.
MrJamesLuz hello sir my 01 ram 1500 5.9 only shift at redline what can i do to fix that thanks
MrJamesLuz I love how all the idiots in the comments are bashing the 318 but they don't understand he has bigger tires with a shitty rear end.
Jord A. lol I beat the shit out of my 318 all day and never had a single problem...
Dodge 318 Cummins not sure what that means....but my 96 318 dodge with 115000 km and blown front seal. had it into dodge at 90 k for trans slipping, and filter change..now it's popped it's cork... no towing ever with it.
i have a 96 GMC 5.7. with 3600000 km.... just changed wheel bearings and rotors and waterpump....tranny works fine..it towed a 5 th wheel camper to Arizona from canada both ways for the first 10 years of its life. granted there is Wednesday build and Friday afternoon build quality factor....
Jord A. Lol you have a 318 magnum in a second gen. I've seen chevys blow engines at 50,000 miles. Not to mention that every chevy needs a new fuel pump every 2 years.
when are you going to have more on the zr2... you guys have the best car review on it by far.
Walt Whaley ZR2 vs Tacoma off road. That's the review they need. TRD pro wouldn't be fair. TRD off road is more Comparable by the numbers.
Brandon H zr2>trdpro
I think the zr2 will take the taco....
front lockers diesel..... new shocks... ect....
Plus it did the Rubicon trail with out one winch.... that speaks for it's self
Great video keep it up .
As far as 3 speed automatic transmission go, can't beat a C6. Raced a friend, him in a 1994 F150 351/E4OD me in a 1989 F250 351/C6. Pretty similar trucks in weight, but by the time his transmission could figure out what gear to go in, I was in 3rd sailing down the track. On the flip side, he didn't have to fill tank as often though.
HELL YEAH!!... BIG GREEN!!. 🏁🚀
Tommy Hammond It'll be great to see a fresh engine and tranny in that old Ford. What diff did Big Green have? I'd like to see Rusty Boy get a 3.73 in it.
Troy Strain rusty boy has 4.10s in it right now. 3.73s would only make it accelerate slower
Captain Rudy Yeah, I understand that, but after the race, and I bet he won't be towing with it, that it would make it more livable to drive plus a little better on fuel.
Troy Strain true but when you're doing a performance build like they're doing with big green mpg isn't exactly at the top of the list.
Tommy Hammond EWWW NO
the dodge isn't that old but thats the oldest dodge they can get that's in one piece haha
Those old Ford Trucks are bad ass looking.
I was originally a Ford guy. Got married had kids turned into a sedan dad. Really want my truck back. This video shows that Ford is still awesome.
the maintenance done on that Ford looks pathetic I have a 69 F250 390 4 speed I have yet to turn the key and have it crank that long to start
bill thompson this dumbass doesnt know how to start the truck much less drive it
im a ford guy through and through and it would have won if the chevy was stock haha love watching these little grudge race
I was probably a 360 Ford. Chevy really sucks ass.
D Anderson Run what you brung. And the ford ate shit.
Solaire The SunBro I see we've found our typical chevy fanboy right here
Marcus Andre Still a sore loser as you'll ever be. You're almost as bad as the Nissan guys.
Solaire The SunBro a sore loser? Lol too bad the chev needed over 10k in mods to beat an old rusted out Ford with 360/390 running on 7 cylinders lmao.
Great stuff guys,looks like you had a blast! I think that would be awesome if Ford and RCA stepped up and did something with those trucks. That old Ford really surprised me how fast it actually was off the line there. I really hope Ford will step up to the plate on that old 74'. Those were great trucks. Sooner than later if you are going to end up blowing that engine up. And that will be a shame when that happens.
Enjoying the nice day I’m watching at 3:00 am
Are all dodge drivers so embarrassed that they have to debadge the front grill
guy proulx I'll have to drive my 318 out there with 3.90 rear end and show this chevy what up...
If that dodge makes it that far, LOL
Have a 1/4 mile the Dodge would pass them,thanks to the highway gearing with tall tires makes it sluggish of the line..
lol the doge 318 is junk ahahaha nice try tho
Otto Bauch Dodge rams are the longest lasting trucks on the road. I don't understand the hate either though. I love all trucks. They have soul. Yet I prefer my hemi.
While I absolutely love the 2nd gen Dodges, and actually own 2 of them. I wouldn’t exactly call it a “classic” . It has no place here.
Technically it is over 25 years old. But should really have been an 80s D series. Seems like the truck is either tired or its gear ratio and tires.
Are those 33's on the highboy?
This is an awesome drag race man. 😉
I'd love to have that '74 F-250, I have a '71 a F-100
Nathan needs to buy a Toyota T100 or first generation Tundra 4x4.
Oh gosh...why?
Wanna do me a favor pls? Can you make a video on how to build a prerunner and what parts u need as well as what the potential cost could be
any more from this 3 rigs?
7.3 Power stroke into the high boy
grumpybill nah 460
I won't the Chevy I'll never own a Ford again
John S good
Sqaurebody chevies, first gen cummins and powerstrokes are the best trucks ever made
What engine is in the ram ?
Stupid fresh motor in the Chevy ford worn out 360 dodge pos
Ford👍 Chevy👍 Dodge👎
MJ Y goof
Good
No!
No it’s ford👍🏿 Chevy👍🏿 dodge👍🏿
Them old dodges with the 360 and 318 were gutless wonders even back in the day when they were new.
I got a 1993 Ford F-150 Flare Side with a 5.0L V8 outta 89 Fox body. It's fuel injected and has four-wheel-drive as well as low range.
The Dodge got destroyed 😢 I wish I can put my Nissan against these 😂
Better bring a tow truck!
Jutdudebra 1 It definitely wouldn't need a tow truck lol Nissan's last forever I would get smoked though haha
Maria Huerta I wouldnt say stronger but the american engines are much more powerful
Bryce Belton ill say in my view american trucks are the best in the world cause nobody can compare them with power and torque they make no other other country has or makes trucks like u.s does.... Japanese trucks are okay but i dont find them superior in work related situations
Bryce Belton ford is mostly made in america but dodge and chevy is a 50/50
What motors in the dodge?
I never realized how slow the dodge 5.2s were. I own a 99 with the 5.9 and it actually has some get up. It’s a 2wd though. I raced my buddy’s 2010 f150 with the 5.4, and it was a neck and neck race but I finished about a foot ahead of him. Only mods are flowmaster exhaust and k&n air filter.
I currently almost done resorting a 66 mustang. Once I'm done I would love to get a truck ...since you can do many things with them. I want an old truck but the only thing will be picking one. I love all 3 brands the same D:
do you think you could use trucks from the same erra at least
I love the Ford though the style and look of them I think is the greatest look of all of the Ford models keep it going brother
Back in the day if the police couldn’t catch you on the road they really couldn’t do anything. I remember my Dad having an old 1968 dodge pickup. As he would leave work each day he would antagonize the cops into chasing him. He never got caught. I remember the police riding by the driveway staring as my Dad leaned against the hood would just wave. You guys bring back good memories, thanks.
Awesome trucks guys. Love the looks of the Ford. Just needs some work and tlc.
