Im impressed..... I just purchased a rolled over 2019 f350 single rear wheel amd i was gonna repair it but its high in price and i thought about this and came across your video..... We should talk
You sir are a real professional. I'm doing a second 77 on a 90 frame and it's great seeing someone else do a detailed walkthrough on the same/similar project.
Thanks. I'm way behind on making these videos. This project is already reaching the 2 year mark, so it's time to play catchup and post some of my "how to"
@@markfugaI am sure I speak for many others…. We would really appreciate any follow up videos or project updates! I am looking into something similar for my next project and would love to see how you tackled other areas! Thanks for the video and plain explanation for how you got this far. I can’t wait for more. Subscribed in hopes of future content!
i have a 2012 6.7 and a 1972 camper special i plan on doing this with. thus creating my dream truck. doing research before i start digging into it. this video is super helpful.
I have a similar project on the go. 78 F-600 going on a 01 Super Duty 7.3 turbo diesel 4x4 frame. The old one is a crew cab with 8 ft box and I'm switching to a two-door 78 cab with a flatbed behind it. I really appreciate seeing your cab mount ideas, thanks for sharing them!
Awesome!! Sounds like a fun project. Yes!! remember to fully tighten the cab mount bolts before welding the brackets to the frame!! I'm just now getting everything re-assembled and the mount compress every bit of 1/4 inch! I tightened it all up this week and the body lines are still perfectly aligned. Although you have a little less to fuss with if using a flat bed behind the cab.
@@markfuga hope to test fit the cab to frame this week. I think the engine bay in the 600 is a bit bigger than the regular F series. But I'll be bringing the rad support over to the 600 from the Super Duty. I can't wait to see your next vid on your 77. Cheers
Another great project👍 I subscribed a while back because i found your last project on a forum and videos here. I'm putting a 76 f350 crewcab on a early 2000s 7.3l crewcab cab/ chassis frame. Both trucks are 2wd but I'm converting to 4wd with a 6 speed. I've already started some of the work but haven't had the time to really work on it. Hoping to at least get it on the road this coming yr. Your projects should be very helpful for my project. I appreciate all the details you have provided 👍
Wow great work! Great content 👌 I have 1997 f350 dually that needs a frame swap. Frames are absolete for those models. Could you recommend what year would best fit that particular year?
Super awesome. What does a job like this run more or less realistically if u don’t mind me asking. I’d love to have someone build something like this for me in NM or nearby
Hi Mark. I'm starting a project almost exactly like this. 78 super cab body to a 2001 7.3 chassis. Any more pics or video of this would be greatly appreciated
Hi how are you doing I have a 67 Ford f100 the frame is gone but cab and box side's are good but I was wondering if a 1997-98 ford F-150 frame work and put the side's on the box of the 97-98 ?
F250 and F350 through 97 should all be the same wheelbase which simplifies that part of the swap. Let me know when you get started and I'll send inspiration your way :)
I used the steering column and gauge cluster from the 2015. Everything else is the 77's. I did replace the ashtray with the brake controller from the 2015. Here's a thread on a message board the details some of the efforts on this build: www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1663761-77-super-onto-2015-a.html
Slowly. The cab is set on the frame. Mechanically the truck is 100% done. Just got it back from a shop that finished and charged the AC system. The bed is at the body shop for paint. I'll spend the next several weeks getting the interior back together along with exterior trim. I should have it back on the road by the first of the year.

Very concise description of what you did and why. Very minimalist approach also. As straight ahead as it could possibly be.
Great bit of information.
Confirmed what was going on in my head.
Starting a 65 M350 onto a 2000 F250 frame.

I have a 77 I've been pondering on what to do with. A late model frame and engine is just the ticket. Amazing work+
Dang I have a 77 super cab short bed I’d love to do something with. Thought I was just alone and dreaming of this project…nice video! Thanks

@@markfuga , I really enjoyed your 7.3 into the old GMC dump truck as well.

Great information here. Subscribed in hopes of more videos of this project. Can’t wait to see more.
Great job it's going to be a nice piece
Great video with lots of valuable info. I have a 75 supercab I want to do the same thing with!
Update video my man. Thank you!
Man, that's gonna look beautiful. Nice job!
Good video Mark !!!
Any update on this build?

Another great project👍

How's your project going?
good to see you posting a new video.
Any other updates on this frame swap?
Great project Mark. Always impressed with your detailed descriptions.
Thank you
Fantastic vid!
thaks tha is awesom im doing 09 to a 79 longbed thaks U Rock!!!
Wow great work! Great content 👌 I have 1997 f350 dually that needs a frame swap. Frames are absolete for those models. Could you recommend what year would best fit that particular year?
awesome, I personally would be terrified to cut a frame but I'm not as knowledgeable as you are
If you don’t mind any idea on the cost to have it frame shortened?
Super awesome. What does a job like this run more or less realistically if u don’t mind me asking. I’d love to have someone build something like this for me in NM or nearby
Hi Mark. I'm starting a project almost exactly like this. 78 super cab body to a 2001 7.3 chassis. Any more pics or video of this would be greatly appreciated
How far along have you gotten? What frame did you put the cab on?
I’m doing a very similar project as this one! I’m swapping a 78 body to a 12 f350 but mine is a diesel. Do you have any tips ? Thanks! Awesome video!
Yes go with an old power wagon and drop a Cummins in it.
Question, how much is the price range for a project like this?
Great video! Thank you.
Hi how are you doing I have a 67 Ford f100 the frame is gone but cab and box side's are good but I was wondering if a 1997-98 ford F-150 frame work and put the side's on the box of the 97-98 ?
Very nice job. I'd like to do a 72 to a newer chassis
F250 and F350 through 97 should all be the same wheelbase which simplifies that part of the swap. Let me know when you get started and I'll send inspiration your way :)
Hello Mark! I'd love to get some additional info from you on this swap! How can I get in touch with you?
Thanks for the video but I want to see the rest of the truck LOL
Where is everyone buying these complete SD chassis'?
Beautiful work! I’m inspired and hope to be able to tackle a project like this. Thank you. Where you located?
Thanks. I'm in Virginia.
I was wondering if you had any info on 7.3 swap wiring wise looking for some input. Looking to swap a 7.3 into a older Chevy cab chassis.
What year 7.3 do you have? You can email me at: mark.fugazzotto@gmail.com
Did you ever get it Done
Do you use the 70’s interior or the 2015 interior?
I used the steering column and gauge cluster from the 2015. Everything else is the 77's. I did replace the ashtray with the brake controller from the 2015. Here's a thread on a message board the details some of the efforts on this build: www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1663761-77-super-onto-2015-a.html
Why not just box the frame where you shortened it instead of adding the metal on top?
How is it coming along...
Slowly. The cab is set on the frame. Mechanically the truck is 100% done. Just got it back from a shop that finished and charged the AC system. The bed is at the body shop for paint. I'll spend the next several weeks getting the interior back together along with exterior trim. I should have it back on the road by the first of the year.
@@markfuga
Thank you for the kind response. Why did you choose the 2015 frame...
@@markfuga any more videos on this truck?
Aswesome crazy.
Y se puedes adaptar al reves de una nueva a cabina antigua
What happened to you?
Good work… but @huntyler did it better 🤷♂️
