Todays young men have so many more tools and options on trucks available to them that makes work much easier than when I was young. Our old trucks didn’t have all the bells and whistles they have now. Things like power steering, diesel engines, air conditioning, four wheel disc brakes, four wheel drive without locking hubs, etc., etc. . When I hear them talking about old vehicles like big steering wheels. the strange manual shift lever on the steering column, or put down the gas engines, straight six engines and three and four speed transmissions etc. I just think of how spoiled they are, and makes me realize how old I am. My God these vehicles were our everyday workhorses, plain Jane nothing fancy and got the job done period. We didn’t see them as something to worship or show off with we just patch ‘em up with bailing wire and go on down the road. I remember the time when my dads truck carburetor actually cracked in the middle of loading hay out in the field. No such thing as a parts store close by so he took a piece of bailing wire and tied the carburetor together and he drove that truck a month before he got a new carburetor for it.
Love your videos always good time God Bless have great day
Got to appreciate an old beater farm truck!
Cool old truck and good to see Roger from Roger's Fixit Barn. My Dad had a '68 model long bed. He drove it forever.
Cheers, Gary
Looks like fun
My first vehicle is a 1963 Ford f-100 Unibody that I drive all the time. It's a pretty darn good truck.
There is actually a great UA-cam channel Classic Truck Rescue. It’s a great channel!
thank you my friend informasi good 🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏🙏😘🇲🇾🙏
Great addition!
Got it wrong.That will ride
Looks like the fun never stops out there! I'm overdue for a visit...
Really looking forward to this.
Please give the dump truck an "ooga ooga" horn. Oh and a siren too!!
Salut je suis Français et un de mes rêves serais d'avoir un pick up ford comme celui la pour moi c'est vraiment le symbole des usines qui faisais travailler les hommes plutôt que les robot . May be one day !!!
its going to look great!!!!
That looks like a good truck. Can’t wait to see more videos with it
My handyman used to have a 65 dump truck. We called all sorts of stuff in it.
Yes please!
The magic words are; that ain't going no where!!!!!
Nice.
Interesting how y’all do it up there. Guess the weather isnt the same here or something cuz we have to strap our stuff down a bit different.”that’ll be alright” just isn’t enough. We have to slap the load and say “that ain’t goin nowhere” to really make sure it’s secure.
Agreed 🤣
Demo!!!!
I'm glad Roger let it go to someone who can bring her to her former glory.
I have a blue 69 f350 11ft bed that is my daily driver. I need need to get one with a dump bed. I would love to see you put this one back to work. Thats what they do best.
I have a classic 1984 k4500 dump truck. Their awsome.
Nice!! That’s going to be great dude. Nice scores.
As much as I loved living in Texas (San Angelo), fire ants are the one thing I do NOT miss.
Sweet action brother that's killer badass you don't find those 69 Ford Trucks everyday so with that i say bravo on an excellent barn find
directly below the steering box is a crossmember.. look at the bottom frame rail to cross member connection. there will be an 5/8 headed bolt with an 11/16 nut that is probably loose and allowing the frame rail to rock as you turn the steering wheel back and forth.
also check the full insertion of the steering shaft coupling (rag joint) on the steering box input shaft. these years of fords did not have a notch in the shaft for the bolt to prevent the coupling from slipping off.
the 66 to 69 ford pickups used a pin type ignition switch. that there were issues with the connectors burning on the back.. new pin type ignition switches and pin type pigtails are available.
don't forget to install an ignition kill switch .. get your tools on this truck and its way too easy for bandits to make off with it.. along with a GPS tracker.
install a 1984 corvette fuel filter directly before the fuel pump to protect the fuel pump check valves from sediment in the fuel system that results in cold start stall and extended cranking times along with vapor lock issues like when the engine is hot and you start up hill . the corvette fuel filter is a 10 micron element. before the pump.. not between the pump and carb..
when you do the front and rear brakes.. please replace the wheel cylinders. you do have to take the nut off the back of the backing plate and knock the pin out of the parking brake lever to replace it.. not hard to do. and use red high temp silicone to glue the ends of the return springs to the brake webs and the curly hold down springs together.. and the light blue spring for the lower shoe return spring also to the web.. that is if you want to never need to pull a drum then replace it because a spring broke or came apart and wedged under a shoe.
that year 360 also used a nylon toothed cam timing sprocket.. guaranteed to fail eventually.. check slack in the crank before the distributor rotor reacts.. more than 1/2 inch at the damper is way too loose..
lastly.. your truck probably has 4.56 gears.. start collecting 16" ford wheels that the same 8 bolt pattern and get some taller tires. the 8.75-16.5s are usually 27" tall. the taller 16 inch tires available in load range E should be 33 or 34" tall. its a huge difference on the freeway.. really wakes the trucks of this vintage up. 27.5 tires run the engine at 3621 RPMS at 65.. a 33.5" tire is 2950 RPMS at 65 in 4th gear.
The magic words are true
That's funny, I met Roger at The Good of the Land Fest!
WOW...Love the lug nuts..>Crazy
Looks like you could use a R&I guy for this project. Nice find.
,I just bought a dump to fix up myself, a 1961 Dodge, my lack of budget has me stopped, but truck is paid for. ill start buying parts in a couple weeks
Can’t wait to see what you do with it.
That’ll make a neat unit for sure
Do it write Jason, frame off resto with a diesel built but steve. Would be a great collaboration video with Steve
I may have met Roger lol
I miss my '69 F250... It had the 360 in it too. If you could get a chain around it, she would pull it...
So many cool activities coming to your channel man 😁🇨🇦👍
Candy apple red, it would look great, just sayin. :)
When is the next GOTLF?
Info will be out soon! Oct or Nov.
The first thing you need to do Is take some Grease And a torch And try to free up the kingpins. I had a 69 F250 It had a Y code for the engine, I had it from 1992 up until 2016.
Going to be a pretty cool project. Backwards lug nuts, lol! Oh yea, I would leave the look of the patina. Glad to see you still have my sticker on the back window!
It has power steering... As we used to say in the 60s, it takes all the power ya got!!!
Great find, I look forward to seeing the restoration.
P.S. Check the front cab supports, I've owned several and that's a weak spot. If they go bad and collapse the cab will rest on the steering column and destroy that too.
Please, no "patina". To me, that just says, "I'm too poor or too lazy to paint it."
I'd love to see you go full tilt on this. She is beautiful
I am glad you made it home with no problems. I was a little worried about those tires with all that weight on them.
A simple paint job with the same colors on the 69 Ford F350.
I'd like to buy the remind me of my grandpa's truck tell me how much I live up in Arizona
You are a body man, don't deny you nature. make it cool.
Well heres to hoping you go full tilt lol . That truck would be sharp completely redone
There are interesting variants the world over of "it'll do" ....
She'll be Right mate! right on down to ist gradely! (Australian and Lancashire UK)
Always good to see you and Stephen, but it's a real treat to see Roger in there too! Exciting times ahead with your new projects! Fun video!!! OBTW, it's "That Ain't Goin' Nowhere!" LOL
Finally talked Roger out of it I see
Best wishes from Jan in Norway. Hope 2021 will be a great year. Wish you all the best. Look forward to see how the Ford will be :)
wrong words, you gotta grab a chain or strap and shake it, then you say " THAT AINT GOING NOWHERE"
these trucks did come with power steering...and i think a power steering box from a 65/79 f150/f350 will work
No, No, No!! You say, " that ain't going anywhere!"
And you gotta slap it while you're saying that.
@@alancottrill thass right!!
Steves work truck with that sweet VMAC air compressor on it and full of tools and he uses a hand ratchet to swap lugnuts around? I think i woulda zipped em around with an air tool , or at least a cordless impact ! LOL
I always say "we aren't going far".
I WANT TO SEE THE TRUCK BUILD...
No wonder y'all have issues with stuff fallin off... the words are, "That ain't goin' nowhere."
Never put your thumbs inside the steering wheel on a manual steering setup. If the front tire hits a rut, it will snap the wheel and can break your thumb.
I used to work on those Knaphide scissor lift units & bodies at a dealer. They're pretty simple and should last forever if not abused - ok, badly abused. Just be sure to block it up when under it. Does it have a Commercial Body tag on it?
Just curious about where you are at. Saw some shots with Old Mill Pond in Lindale, TX. I live in Garden Valley
Is this going be a build?
What's up with Smoking Sally?
What do you want power steering for ?
I have to laugh when cars as small as a smart car have power steering. it makes paople lazy, and you can't feel the road.
When i was about 13/14, i used to go with my dad, and used to drive a 30Ft flatbed with vehicle pallets on the back around the yard, no power steering, manual gearbox, just have to keep the wheels rolling.
