Started watching for LS content, but revivals will always draw me in.
Thanks for watching!
I am a sucker for revival videos too, especially on these old trucks.
A great video, I just found you earlier here and I like older Ford pickups . I have a 1974 now stripped down to the frame .
🤗👍💖💫
Awesome man thanks for watching!
The bumps are the best looking trucks of all time imo!
Came with a two-barrel motorcraft with only 351 CFM but like some people including me I did put a four-barrel 600 CFM on my 302 and hooker headers (tight fit and a little bit of work)and new exhaust/glass packs,it did pretty good!
thats bad ass bro
Thanks man!
That's actually a very solid looking pickup. Showing closeups of the floor pans, cab corners, fender corners etc., will answer those questions. This would be so cool restored. A short bed '72, very rare.
Good video....shades and undertones of VGG....LOL!, except you didn't lick the dipstick! LOL
Lol! Thanks for watching!
Maybe you should try coming over to the other side!!! I've driven them for 50+ years and have never had the issues the haters throw out there. Anything can break down and wear out.
I don't mind them. Just keeping the ol beef alive 😂
I had a 1972 F100 , was my first truck & was red/white . Fond memories. I’m quite sure mine had the 360 engine. Had a friend had a 390 . Not sure they came with a 302 . The later F150 around 78-79 had the straight 6 option & the 302 v8 . Enjoying your video.
I have a 72 with a built injected 390. I would never swap it. They are ridiculously good and very smooth riding trucks.
Congratulations... Great job.
Thank you for watching!
First time watching you. Good content. Had my doubts at first but interesting lol
Thanks for watching!
Love the bump side Ford and your square body,i myself am a fan of the bump side Ford trucks but im a big fan of the square body and gmt400 trucks I have owned several of them, and gm gbody rwd 78-88 cars Oldsmobile cutlass supreme brougham 2 dr and the 83-86 Pontiac Grand Prix SJ and the same year range Chevy Monte Carlo cl
Those laws are needed, shut down those that want to pollute and destroy the enviroment.
Cool truck I have a 73 F100 Custom Explorer with a 360, 4 speed and true dual glasspacks.
Nice!
@@JovaniDanteGriego thanks.
Was a teenager in the 80s had a 71 f100/302/3 on tree.. my dad's and you would see sometimes red colored glass packs that were called cherry bombs
Nice video
Thanks for watching!
What a great video, I enjoyed this! Wish I could make content like yours on my channel, therefore, I subscribed. Keep putting out this content, you're making me jealous. Greetings from Denmark!
Thank you very much!
Nice I have a 1970 f100 and I just learned a few things. I'm a incomplete quadriplegic and I'm trying to get my truck running but I think it's the same thing that happened to father in law truck. It would be cool if u make a video on how change the gas tank. My gas tank is in the same spot. I want to change it and put it somewhere either the fuel cell In the bed or like where u are going to put the gas tank underneath. THANKS FOR THE KNOWLEDGE U HAVE A NEW SUBSCRIBER !!!
Thanks man! I appreciate you watching! I'll definitely be making that gas tank video next I'm I'm up there
@@JovaniDanteGriego thxs for replying I know its hard to do so at times.
After wasp decon… this gonna be a solid daily driver.
on this carbs withou return I used to install a "debubbler" (don´t know you call tem like this), it helps to relief pressure and you have a return. less problems with overflowing and the pump lives longer.
Working on father in law's truck and says that's good enough for the girls i date. Lmfao
😂
If you knew more about Fords you wouldn’t have been surprised that it started so easy and the main problem was that it wasn’t a quality carburetor if it had its original carburetor it probably would have been better
Wasp killer on the cheap and you can waste it as much as you want and it doesn't damage any of your interior panels or any of that stuff. Here's a recipe. Get a garden sprayer that you can pump up with pressure. Try using a squeeze trigger bottle I don't like them they don't seem to handle the panic I got to squeeze the handle super fast because I have a lost coming at me trigger pull LOL. Put a very generous amount of Dawn dish liquid storms sort of concentrated soap I like Don it works fill the rest with water and then spray your hand if you have a good soapy ladder kind of thing coming out as long as it can come out in a good steady stream you can pump it up and now kill every wasp in sight. Any bugs that breathe through their body will be eliminated and then you can just claim the rest of the vehicle with your soapy water. I have had the wasp spray mess things up. Dawn dish liquid doesn't mess anything up. And it cleans as it kills. It works on your house and all that kind of stuff. If you have a reoccurring nest you can add I think cinnamon to it and that's supposed to keep them from coming back but I have never had them come back.
Dude awesome! Thanks!
@@JovaniDanteGriego yeah I have a few questions for you on a LS swap project I want to do because I can tell you have been doing a lot of research and messing with them I want to do a LS swap on my 85 square body Suburban dillow Drive you can see it on my channel I've got haters I got motor mounts I have the engine I have stock wiring harness computer I'm going to be hooking engine up to a 700R transmission the fuel pump is what I don't know how to find resources on. I want to run a frame rail fuel pump because it has a 40 gallon tank and I don't want to lose that
External pumps are always going to be louder and less reliable long term because of cooling. But a genuine walbro will be fine. Minimum 255lph
I have noticed that most newer gas cans have either the anti spill tube yours had or the white square baffles adhered to the bottom center of the gas can of course though the ethanol junk in the gas eats the adhesive and the plastic type baffles just rattle around floating around in the gas cans midas i think it might be Midwest brand i don't remember it came from tsc and the older ones are from Walmart...
Tractor supply sells a "race" jug style can that just has a rubber hose as a spout. It works so much better
You made the carb west lol
I like ah have that truck
You should always put jack stands on the frame I`m not sure if you put it on the rad cradle or what but they are meant to go under the frame of the truck anywhere else your risking your safety and risking bending and breaking things on the vehicle.
Seat tanks are fine, in the cab where they don't rust.
Jeez start it.... it's a Ford.... it's going to run.
Imagine if there was no EPA. I was there in the 1960's and 70's.
I have never see someone hit a carburetor to fix it 😅starter is different 😮
😂 it might look dumb but it actually can pop the needle out of the seat on the float and get it to flow again
Do you happen to have a link to that under-bed fuel tank kit? I have a 72 F100 myself, and that's one of my next projects for the truck.

Actually like the 72 better, way more class.
I have the same car passed down from my grand dad been trying to fix it but I just can’t find the parts and where to find them do , where do you recommend to get parts for this kind of truck
What kind of parts? There's lots of catalog companies but typically when I need something I just do a quick Google search or eBay
@@JovaniDanteGriego break shoes if I’m correct
@@mingobehindthecamera7009 those should be available through any parts store
You need a starter switch and spray it at the same time
I never seen anyone in mire dire need of a Leatherman.....lol
You know I have one too 🤣 but I always forget to carry it with me
Where did you get your wheels on your dually
They are MHT d501 I think. They came with the truck
Hey bro ! Just found your channel .. what happened to this truck ? Is it on the road yet ?
Not yet unfortunately. The truck is about 2 hours from me so it's hard to work on regularly since I have to haul tools up with me. I'm gonna try to get it finished this year!
Cool man !! Does Pedro know you have been working on it ? It would be cool if he didnt know and one day you suprise him with a running , driving truck.
@@dronepilotblake9071 he does but I think the next time he goes out of town I'll try and finish it up and surprise him.
Hell yea man ! Make sure and show us !
is the owner ok with u converting the fuel tank? whats the reasoning for abandoning the cab tank
Yes of course.
@@JovaniDanteGriego anymore videos on the truck? would like to follow the rig
@@madtamerjr not yet. It's a ways out from me. I'll get to work on it in the spring once the snow melts
Those carbs are only supposed to have 7psi on them
The fuel pump was for a carb, rated at 5-8 psi but It don't trust I went through 2 of them in one day last time I used this Edelbrock pump.
@@JovaniDanteGriego yeah I’ve got a edelbrock never have been able to get it to run right
I bought a truck with a Holley and it was amazing the difference
@@JovaniDanteGriego yeah I just put a LS in my truck so I could get fuel injection, I have a channel with it on there
Can tell you like Vice Grip Garage. Pretty cool video man
It's the only way to talk when doing a revival 😂
Floats were stuck, needle valves
👑👍فوردFORD1962
I've got a question 🤔 Why do you people from New Mexico where the speed limit is mostly like 55 to 60 drive 90 as soon as you come into Texas?
Because Fuck Texas 😂 jk. we drive 80 on the 65.
@Jovani Dante Griego lol😂
Because everyone else does the same thing.
Why don't you use the ratchet handle to beat on the carb floats instead of using the ratchet head for a 🔨 all you going to do is F'up your ratchet
Because it's a 20 dollar harbor freight one with lifetime warranty my guy.
Anything is a hammer if you make it one
@Jovani Dante Griego pliers also work good 👍
whats up with the ears?
Chevys Suck!
