    • @roflmao000

      Just so you know, the flashing is because of the cameras framerate in relationship with the AC power of the dash, so when you were in the car you wouldn't see the flashing.

      LED lights don’t glow non stop. They flicker quicker than the human eye can see. So it looks like a solid light. The camera will pickup the flicker. If you have a vehicle with a backup camera, with the camera activated look at the headlights of someone behind you. You’ll see that flicker.

      Beautiful Hi-Boy, but IDK if a Coyote would be on the top of my list for swaps, I'd personally rather see either a 6BT or even a 6.7 Cummins, if trying to keep it Ford, I mean, they already came with FE blocks, so a 428 would've been perfect, if new, I guess my next logical choice would've been the Godzilla.
      Regardless, the horn doesn't work, the glovebox popped open with a tap of the throttle, and while I like the interior, the billet exterior pieces, super pristine paint, rear jump....it just doesn't look like they intended for it to really be used...and no, I don't mean beat or dent the bed to hell lol, but just used as a daily.

    It may well be a 1970 Ford, as all "Bump-sides" (1967-72) all shared the exact same body panels, bed, and had a lot of the same trim, but that is not the grille from a 1970. It looks like a 1968 grille. There are subtle changes in the grille Ford used from 1967 to 1969, but the 1970 was completely different, with a plastic eggcrate design replacing the metal linear horizontal bars of the previous years. Turn signals and hood class designators changed from year to year as well. Ford got a lot of mileage out of this overall design, and it changed very little, save the grille from year to year. I am VERY impressed by the rebop of this truck, and if I had the dough, I'd definitely buy one. Very cool! My chief complaint would be about the 6-lug bolt pattern on the wheels. The 3/4-ton and 1-ton versions of the originals had 8-lugs.

      I think you’re right. I have a 70 F100 and had a 70 F350 ton. Both had the same grills. This looks like a 68-69 grill/front. The 70s honeycomb grill is the easiest to identify in the 5th gen.

    Judging by the grill this is not a 1970 bump side, but a bit of a gen5 Frankenstein. Which is fine, it's a beautiful truck, most restored gen5's have a mix of years on it including a lot of new steel panels which are readily available. Very easy trucks to work on, I have a 67 f100 with a three in the tree transmission and 300 cid, not fast but fun to drive in the city.

  • @jasoncardoza6375
    @jasoncardoza6375 10 місяців тому +2

    No dude older a/c systems used r12 and the discharge pressure side was much lower resulting in colder temperatures. Higher the air being pressurized results in more heat making it harder to cool. Yes the new systems are more efficient but older systems if rebuilt to manufacture specs and r12 used its a massive difference. I’m running two older systems and they’re by far more expensive to service but are colder than my new Malibu hands down. Side note, cars are more insulated today so that’s why the cool air doesn’t dissipate as quickly. Throw some dynamat and new padding in your vintage ride and guaranteed your going to be 5-10 degrees cooler in the cabin using an older system.

    You're calling this a 1970 F-250. With the front grill & the heater/AC controls, this is a 1967.
    Grille style was from '67 to '69.
    Heater/AC controls were knobs in '67. '68 to '72 were levers.
    I owned a 1970 F-250 Sport Custom 32 years ago. It had plastic rectangle grille inserts & sliding lever style heater controls.
