Every time I see under the hood of an old truck or car, I start seeing things I would immediately improve. Intake, ignition, exhaust, brakes, cooling, electrical, wheels/tires, brakes...not for custom touches or such, but for safety, reliability and comfort
Omg. Too funny. Hubby was doing the splits. Pretty flexible.😅 and the joy in his cackle when he went forward to get out of the mud and your ocassionally wrong was priceless.
Every time your baby didn't start, I said, "Fiddle faddle!" This has been interesting to watch, and I learned some things! Now I'm going to sit, no set, no wait...sit and watch more videos! As usual, great video!
Lol, thanks! We'll need to get some kind of Fiddle Faddle flag or banner to put up in the new barn and just pan over to it whenever things aren't going right... too funny 😂
I have no idea about cars, but I love the mechanics and the diagnostics of these older cars. "Flip flap the flapper" Is about my understanding of cars😂
What a treat!! I tried to restore cars in the past, and had the varmints take up residency, and it was very difficult to get rid of them as you found out. For the past few years, I’ve been trying to get rid of or reduce the squirrel and rat population, and I finally had to get rid of my chickens to reduce the Varmit population. I have been fixing up my 1997 Ford ranger which I bought new. It has been fun Project. There’s no varmints and just about everything is original with only 157,000 miles so she’s a beauty! Next up is a quote for a paint job. The bench seat is so ooo comfortable and original.
Yaaaay! The barn is almost finished (and the weather is improving) so we're hoping to be able to get videos out more regularly soon! Thanks for watching!
I love ya'lls show!!! Between ya'll and Sleeper Dude I get my wholesome family fix. Which I think is missing in today's society. As far as the "Beautiful truck" goes ya'll totally need to do a teardrop trailer to run behind it!!! Keep up the good work! Love ya'll!!!
I know you weren't trying to be funny -you were so serious and knowledgeable, sharing information about the truck body and engine. Christy is panning around the engine compartment like: 'Sure that's all good, but OMG look at this walnut disaster!' I had to chuckle because that is exactly what I would do. My OCD kicked in and I couldn't wait for you to get the ShopVac out and clean it out. 😄 The kids out there in the plaid pj/golf pants were perfect. I kept wondering if one of them was going to be sporting a pair of white wingtips. Hope you are feeling better Christy.
We've been enjoying your channel and look forward to knew videos! Glad to see you guys got the truck started and moved. Admire your dedication.....working in such cold weather. We are happy Tyler didn't hurt himself when he "flip flapped his flapper"😂 Hope you and your family (and dogs) have a great day😊
Trust me i fully understand the walnut situation and the ground squirrel chewed on wiring harnesses, especially since i had to park my 2000 dodge ram laramie slt quad cab long bed 1500 318 magnum V8 4x4 by the black walnut tree but in the other driveway anyway id moved the truck in the morning to take my son down to the end of the driveway and wait for his bus it was raining and i parked the truck back where it was id noticed it had a Miss didn't think much of it and the ac compressor clutch wiring connector pigtail had been chewed off for over a month at the time and before that it blew cold ac, and i go to get in the truck that afternoon to go wait for my son to get home from and it didn't even crank over,,, and i looked under the hood and the ground squirrel was going down the back of the motor to the transmission and the map sensor connector was no longer connected and it shares the ground wire between several different sensors including the tps and fuel pump relay and the crank sensor so it doesn't run currently,, it was a strong running truck for a 318 magnum V8, and the miss it the ground squirrel chewed on the injector cylinder 7 connector pigtail off as well.. so
Anyways i am wanting to find me a 68-71/72 Ford truck preferably a sport custom or custom cab camper special trim truck to build a rat rod shop truck project out of and trade my dodge ram for..
I love the old bump sides. You may have to look down south or out west to find a good candidate. But if it's going to be a rat rod project,a little rust is to be expected,right?
Yeah i am not worried about a little bit of rust, and if i have to patch the bed and the floors who cares it's gonna be a rat rod shop truck lol .. and as far as rust even my 2000 dodge ram has some rust but it has a solid floors set and the frame.and a really decent shape OEM second gen ram longbed and i keep seeing the rust free examples no lights or tailgate $1,750 is the cheapest one I've seen, mine is probably a $950 bed.
Who needs brakes when you have a hill to roll down?? All those pesky little details that somehow end up being important. Who knew?? So here's a fun fact... it turns out, it's not so much the project as it is the characters involved in the project. Watching you two work on anything together is worth the time. Recording in 18 degree temps, bringing back memories of those bone numbing days is a great way to remember why those days are now part of history!! The Midwest fun facts are also pretty entertaining. Mud bogging is one I have to say I don't recall. Now it feels like I've missed part of my Midwest upbringing.☹ The good news is my HaRVey shirt came through, and it rocks!! Good work on the merch!!
That's super nice of you ❤️ It's always nerve wracking to do a different type of video... that algorithm can be finicky. We thought that shirt was for you! Thanks so much! We're glad you like it 😊
30:00 Okay come on now that little "Tap-a Tap-a Tappperoo" Isn't gonna unstick a float separated by all that metal and it's been sitting in the dirty gummy old gas for 13 years or more? HIT IT WITH A HAMMER MAN!! LOL!
Yes, hopefully! People didn't really like the patina look as much when we first bought this truck. Hopefully we can get the hood looking like it belongs on the truck again :-)
Patina started to be cool around 10 years ago, give or take. I'm lucky my shortbox was parked at my grandparents an hour away or I would have most definitely made the same decision as far as paint. Imo the trucks with mismatched (factory) colored panels have their own charm. Besides a used hood that color shouldn't be to hard to find... my bud just bought a parts truck with 1 actually. Its dentside though and I'm not 100% on interchangeability.
I had a friend of the family back in charlotte NC had this exact truck and he sold it back in 06 or 07 I didn’t even know he was selling the truck because I would have snatched it up. If nothing else it’s the twin to the truck I remember. Nice truck I hope to see many more videos on this truck. If you ever decide you wanna sell the truck let me know.
At one point during the 30's, 40's and 50's Walnut was the most common wood used to make fine furniture! I was such a sought after wood that walnut trees were almost wiped out in the U.S. There wasn't reforestation laws in effect yet. Now a days, walnut boards are very expensive, and vintage walnut is highly sought after. Take pride in your soon to be stash you have!
Yes, we're hoping to get some nice wood back from the trees to maybe use in some of the upcoming projects! Initially we thought we'd be able to sell the wood but, unfortunately, I guess our trees weren't big enough to really be worth much.
"Mall cut". Lol reminds me of "bless you" I thought it was 1 word "Bleshoo". Now I wonder why we're all blessing each other but refuse to Google it because I like the mystery.
We still have it! We have a few more projects we want to tackle on it and also have another vintage camper and campervan that we're going to tackle too. Stay tuned!
Its going to need the exhaust pipe fixed on your 67, and my dodge ram also needs a muffler i have a mini cherry bomb glass pack muffler to put on the truck and then i planned on getting however much exhaust pipe tubing to reconnect the factory tailpipe since it is in really decent shape 8 inch long case muffler
If i end up keeping my dodge ram i was only putting a mini glass pack muffler on the stock single exhaust to give it a more rumble idle exhaust pipe note...
the cool thing about the 67 F100s is that one year only grill, it the best looking grill that ever came on a bumpside. check out TheCraig909 youtube channel he has a white patina bumpside and im pretty sure he did a how to video on how to Re-patina a freshly painted whire body panel and maybe you could redo the hood. if you want to protect your patina check out Poppy's patina wipe on clear coat. this was a nice surprice i cam here for camper roof repairs and found an old Ford bumpside too, im in Rochester and re-doing a old Scotty camper so maybe we'll run into each other at the Dreamcruise or a campground. i just subscribed👍
Thanks for the comment 😁. The bump sides are my favorite. I've seen TheCraig909's channel. I'll have to look for the patina video. Good luck on your project! See you on the road!
Ok, so that may have been our fault. There's a little checkbox that we didn't check before publishing this video 😩 We'll double-check that the box is checked from now on to add it to the subscription feed. Sorry about that.
My research says that Ford stopped using the Y block in 64. The 352 FE was the largest motor offered in the 67 F series pickup (one year only). They used the 360FE from 68 on
1967 fords were differant tan any other year the deafroster has 3 knobs in the center 1968 to 1972 has a slide cables the grill is differant on the spacing of the bars goin accros the chrome is rounder on the sides also the doors lock forward on the inside bt pushing handle for instead of the small black knob you pull up and down . They also have a small armrest hood lettering differant and side F100 badges ua-cam.com/video/GezCgH94LhE/v-deo.html
Every time I see under the hood of an old truck or car, I start seeing things I would immediately improve. Intake, ignition, exhaust, brakes, cooling, electrical, wheels/tires, brakes...not for custom touches or such, but for safety, reliability and comfort
I think a lot of the same things. They're is something to be said for simplicity but modern reliability is pretty nice too😉.
Your little video clip inserts are hilarious!! "She's a gusher!" Your dad's haircut joke is a classic.❤
Thanks so much ❤️
My first pickup was a Ford 1967. It had a 1964 390. 4 speed. Very very low granny! I loved it!!
Super cool!
Great job on the Ford. You and your wife make a great team
Thank you ❤
Omg. Too funny. Hubby was doing the splits. Pretty flexible.😅 and the joy in his cackle when he went forward to get out of the mud and your ocassionally wrong was priceless.
I'm just glad I didn't hurt myself 😜. Very satisfying driving it under its own power after a number of years 😁
It was good adding your wife and she was a funny comic relief. But good work on the car you figured it out!
Haha, yes, we make a good team 😂 We've worked on quite a few projects together, hope you check out some of our other videos too 👍👍
LOL at 53 mins a squirrel moment, right in the middle of the inflated tire story...."Hey, nuts!!" What a great couple!
Too funny you noticed that 🐿️... we considered cutting that out but it would have messed up the conversation... glad we kept it in 😂
We were pulling for you Tyler, and were cheering, (spoiler alert!) when the truck roared to life! 🎉
Dang Nab that was pretty sweet!!
Every time your baby didn't start, I said, "Fiddle faddle!" This has been interesting to watch, and I learned some things! Now I'm going to sit, no set, no wait...sit and watch more videos! As usual, great video!
Lol, thanks! We'll need to get some kind of Fiddle Faddle flag or banner to put up in the new barn and just pan over to it whenever things aren't going right... too funny 😂
My grandfather had one of these trucks, brings back memories for me. Thanks.....😊
That's awesome, thanks!
My neighbors here in town are the area auto body repair shop but their true passion is restoring old vehicles, they would love this video
Gotta love the old stuff!😁
Yeah, you had to put the hat on backwards that fixes it
Definitely doesn't hurt 😂
I have no idea about cars, but I love the mechanics and the diagnostics of these older cars.
"Flip flap the flapper"
Is about my understanding of cars😂
Sometimes you just need to flip flap that flapper. 😂😂😂 Thanks so much for the comment!
Wow, a ‘67 short bed. What a gem!! My father had a ‘70 long bed 3 on the tree, which is what I learned to drive first. Good times!
Great memory! Thanks for sharing 🙌🙌
Thanks for bringing us along on this escapade with your old Ford. I always enjoy seeing what you are working on and I love the vibe of your channel.
Thanks so much 😁
Y'all are such a cool couple. I enjoy your videos! 😊
Thank you!! 😊
Grandpa Sterner used to ask " what are you up to?" If you said anything other that your height and weight he would tell you wrong answer.
Haha, yes! And don't even think about crossing your legs or ankles.
What a treat!! I tried to restore cars in the past, and had the varmints take up residency, and it was very difficult to get rid of them as you found out. For the past few years, I’ve been trying to get rid of or reduce the squirrel and rat population, and I finally had to get rid of my chickens to reduce the Varmit population.

Next up is a quote for a paint job. The bench seat is so ooo comfortable and original.
Nice! Good luck with your truck!
I was yelling at ya to check for brakes but you couldn’t hear me!! 😂😂😂😂
😂😂 Yell louder!
So happy to see you guys back!!!!!❤️😁
Yaaaay! The barn is almost finished (and the weather is improving) so we're hoping to be able to get videos out more regularly soon! Thanks for watching!
I love ya'lls show!!! Between ya'll and Sleeper Dude I get my wholesome family fix. Which I think is missing in today's society. As far as the "Beautiful truck" goes ya'll totally need to do a teardrop trailer to run behind it!!! Keep up the good work! Love ya'll!!!
Thanks so much for watching! A little camper would be perfect behind it!
I know you weren't trying to be funny -you were so serious and knowledgeable, sharing information about the truck body and engine.

Haha, good observation and so true 🤣🤣🤣 Thanks for the comment 🎉
Thank you, I've worked at Walmart now for 17 years . . .
That's awesome!
That's a really clean truck for a Michigan truck.
It's clean but not a Michigan truck 😆
We've been enjoying your channel and look forward to knew videos!
Glad to see you guys got the truck started and moved. Admire your dedication.....working in such cold weather.
We are happy Tyler didn't hurt himself when he "flip flapped his flapper"😂
Hope you and your family (and dogs) have a great day😊
Thanks so much! We were so relieved when it finally started. We appreciate you watching and commenting!
This truck got you a new subscriber and I’ll be going back and catching up on your videos
That's awesome, thanks so much for the comment. We're happy to have you along for the ride 🎉🎉
I would love to see more of that truck right in my driveway please lol looking forward to shop tour!!
Thanks, yes, stay tuned!
Enjoyed the video. I’d definitely watch more of these about the truck.
But since you asked would enjoy the van and camper renovations more. 😊
Thanks, Ken! We're hoping to get some more camper and van videos out soon too! We appreciate you watching!
Walnut power!!!
It's ALIVE!!! (Young Frankenstein)

Tapping definitely wasn't going to unstick that carb! Glad I didn't have to tear it apart for a full rebuild 😁
Good job you guys look forward to seeing more videos on the old truck and everything else
Thanks! There's more to come!
My father used to have a 56, I remember standing in the engine compartment with my feet on the ground and tuning the straight 6.
Very cool! Those trucks are iconic Ford!
Very nice.
Thank you 😊😊
Had to lol with the walnuts! Grandpa had two apple trees, cherry tree, walnut tree and a choke cherry tree! I had to mow around lots of fruit.
We really don't think we'll miss those walnut trees... they just turned to rotten messes everywhere and brought in so many squirrels!
Lovely old truck. More please. I hope you can repaint the hood and recreate the patina somehow
Yes, hopefully! People didn't really like the patina look as much when we first bought this truck. Hopefully we can get the hood looking like it belongs on the truck again :-)
Patina started to be cool around 10 years ago, give or take. I'm lucky my shortbox was parked at my grandparents an hour away or I would have most definitely made the same decision as far as paint.

If nothing else it’s the twin to the truck I remember. Nice truck I hope to see many more videos on this truck. If you ever decide you wanna sell the truck let me know.
Wow! Maybe it was the same truck. I plan to keep it though. Thanks for the comment 😁
I am exited for this!
Thanks for the comment! We are still planning to get moving on the camper and van soon but we'll try to sneak in some work on this truck too.
Looks like the kids are ready for golf lessons. Stance, grip, eye on ball. All the good pre swing checklist.
Definitely 💯⛳😁

Your son looks so handsome with his haircut!
Thank you 😁
That's one Nutty Engine bay. Rusty Nuts!
😂 good one!
Upon watching the video in its entirety it’ll never be sold lol
That's a pretty safe assumption ❤️
Love the ford truck I owned a few and still do….
Awesome, thanks for watching 🙌🙌
"Mall cut". Lol reminds me of "bless you" I thought it was 1 word "Bleshoo". Now I wonder why we're all blessing each other but refuse to Google it because I like the mystery.
Lol, keep the mystery alive 😂 Then there's still the whole mystery of gesundheit 🤧
Why were you not trying starter fluid while cranking?
Oh, we were... That ended up on the cutting room floor, stopped once we determined it was a spark problem.
What part of South Carolina did it come from ?
My first truck was a 67 F100
It was upstate SC near Greenville.
@@retrorevivals that’s near me
Yes more on a truck and the tour of the barn
Perfecto, thanks for the comment!
A weak battery can cause the solenoid to stick. As the voltage drops, the amps increase, which welds the contacts.
Good to know 😉 Thanks!
What happened to your class c motorhome ?
We still have it! We have a few more projects we want to tackle on it and also have another vintage camper and campervan that we're going to tackle too. Stay tuned!
Thanks for responding -- I really enjoy your videos !!! Keep them coming @@retrorevivals
I had a 66 galaxie with a 352. It was a good engine.
I also had a 66 Galaxie. Mine had a 289 though.
you can use a folded up dollar to clean the points
Thanks for the tip 😁
So rule #1 when getting a truck to run .... First de-walnut the engine :)
Agreed!! Critters are so destructive 😬
Its going to need the exhaust pipe fixed on your 67, and my dodge ram also needs a muffler i have a mini cherry bomb glass pack muffler to put on the truck and then i planned on getting however much exhaust pipe tubing to reconnect the factory tailpipe since it is in really decent shape 8 inch long case muffler
Some new exhaust will be great! That'll be a project down the road.
If i end up keeping my dodge ram i was only putting a mini glass pack muffler on the stock single exhaust to give it a more rumble idle exhaust pipe note...
Been looking for quite a while for a truck just about like that. Would you be interested in selling it
Sorry, but no. I'm holding on to this one 😉
They only came with oil bath a/c.
Good to know. Thanks
the cool thing about the 67 F100s is that one year only grill, it the best looking grill that ever came on a bumpside. check out TheCraig909 youtube channel he has a white patina bumpside and im pretty sure he did a how to video on how to Re-patina a freshly painted whire body panel and maybe you could redo the hood. if you want to protect your patina check out Poppy's patina wipe on clear coat. this was a nice surprice i cam here for camper roof repairs and found an old Ford bumpside too, im in Rochester and re-doing a old Scotty camper so maybe we'll run into each other at the Dreamcruise or a campground. i just subscribed👍

Dan Camble is the man do not foubt him. Freaking Reynolds needs to catch the stinking ball on 4th down.
Ok, maybe there's blame to share 😆
The cab parts of 1967 pickup will not interchange with a 1968.
I wasn't aware of that. What are the differences?
What's going on youtube.. I am subscribed but your video doesn't show up in my subscriptions.
Same for me.
I’ll keep searching every week just in case I continue to not see these in my feed.
Ok, so that may have been our fault. There's a little checkbox that we didn't check before publishing this video 😩 We'll double-check that the box is checked from now on to add it to the subscription feed. Sorry about that.
That is just a fe block that year should have had a y block
My research says that Ford stopped using the Y block in 64. The 352 FE was the largest motor offered in the 67 F series pickup (one year only). They used the 360FE from 68 on
1967 fords were differant tan any other year the deafroster has 3 knobs in the center 1968 to 1972 has a slide cables the grill is differant on the spacing of the bars goin accros the chrome is rounder on the sides also the doors lock forward on the inside bt pushing handle for instead of the small black knob you pull up and down . They also have a small armrest hood lettering differant and side F100 badges ua-cam.com/video/GezCgH94LhE/v-deo.html
Good information! Thanks for the comment 😁

Love it!
