    Yup, makes a world of difference taking it apart like that. It kills me when I go to car shows and the people have a killer paint job on the outside and rattle can the engine bay while it's still together. Looks good!!

    • @Thecraig909

    Looks great! It's amazing how big of a difference some elbow grease and some spray paint can make in the engine compartment.

    Hey I want to say great job! It's cool to see young guys getting involved in restoring old vehicles! I have a '71 short bed that I am building with a 393W that makes over 600hp at the flywheel... The "Only" thing I would change in your vids would be the music...other than that spot on! Can't wait to see more

  • @tombrenes2411
    @tombrenes2411 Před 4 lety +1

    I would have changed all the visible bolts with coated ones. New battery cables get 1 wire alternator move the battery behind seat or in center console or a small racing battery under dash make it look clean paint black behind the fenders behind the bumpers and valance great job

    @lilorbielilorbie2496 Před 7 lety +5

    thecraig909 i know what you are saying about your grille. the po of my truck a 67 Ford f-100. he used a tree or a fence post to help stop the truck. now the bumper being bent no big deal 67 / 72 bumpers are all the same. the grille well that,s a one year only grille. i got really lucky on evil bay some one had one and they only wanted $175.00 and free shipping. i have seen the steel ones for a 67 on there for $300.00+ and know free shipping. my cousin told me of a tip he used when he painted the engine bay on his 67 Cougar. take the plastic tip from a WD-40 can that has never had WD-40 thru it. you can put it on the spray nozzle of your spry can .and you can get into the hard to reach spots. i watch your videos all the way thru. keep up the good work. you give me ideas for my truck.also from what i hear. the windshields from 1967 thru 1979 are all the same. the trim around the glass is diff. for the diff. years.

    Lots of work, Looks great..!! The hotter you get those rattle cans the better they work. Heat them up, When there good and hot you will feel the pressure and see the atomization when the nozzle is pushed down compared to a room temp can.

    I'm doing this on a 67 for a guy by myself. I pulled the engine and transmission out, resealed the pan, intake and valve covers. I painted the whole engine old ford blue with black accents. Adding a serpentine system from CVF and converting it to power steering. And a few other things. This whole job started as valve cover and intake gaskets! 🤣

    yeah loved the video can't wait for more and I just bought a 78 f100 with 351w automatic already starting to do things to it I'll have to get some videos of it really soon but I do have problems with when I turn head lights on and the truck running it acts like it wants to die just doesn't act right and they do like a flickering type thang too when they are on does worse when u give it gas and when u turn the light off it stops and acts fine but the interior lights still flicker tho

    • @Thecraig909
      @Thecraig909  Před 7 lety +1

      that sounds like some crazy electrical issues, hope you get it!

    • @90zuk4
      @90zuk4 Před 6 lety +1

      That’s the alternator going bad. For everyone’s information, when you add electric load and your truck starts to act funky measure the battery while running. It should be between 13.5 and 14.2 vdc due to charging. If it’s lower or higher your alternator is going bad.
