Same color as yours down to the red pinstripe down the side. Watching this sure does take me back!

    booted it to clear , and bang ..#5 rod through the side, oil pressures were good, just prior oil change and inspecting of filter did show a tiny bit of silver, but given over 500k km not unreasonable..no knocking just sounded like a slight miss.
    Had several 78-83 f250s 4x4 all used for bush work, before flipping to dodge diesels..
    Now at north of 70 ,would love to be able to drive and work on one once again .. too gimped to do so now. Once you get to really know a truck model and drive train, you accept it's built in problems get comfortable fettling them as needed ..

      Then predominant brands often depended on what corps dealership was based in the local town, as some towns may only have a ford dealership or a chev , maybe both .however through to the mid 80s , ford seemed to be the predominant dealer in the bush/off highway .. Chev trucks seem to be less popular, especially as truck bed and box height in Fords and Dodge were similar, therefore slide in canopies or tool boxes were interchangeable, also chevs were seen as rust collectors in salt /calcium treatments..
      We flipped to Dodge as: 1) they priced right 2) diesels, 3) golden feedback from those already bought.. chev ,non starter, ford , poor customer service, and reliability issues with EFI ..

Those broken springs are screaming for a small lift and bigger tires… throw some hubcaps on her and she’s set! That 300 will treat you well for a long time, and the 4 speed is bullet proof. Check those ball joints, pivot joints, and wheel bearings as they are high wear items. The tie rods can wear, but it looks like you nailed them out nicely. Take some of that scrap diamond plate from the running boards and build a cup holder or tray where the dash speaker rotted out. These look great with a visor and/or cab clearance lights, too.

I love this school as long as its functioning perfectly and tidy thats a gold for me.

    For the door hinges, WD-40 usually dries up and then your squeak comes back. I've found that spray on white lithium grease works best for hinges and latches.

    Nice job man, as everyone else said we need more videos like these on UA-cam. I live in MN as well, hopefully I can find a nice truck like that with minimal rust.
    You’ve inspired me to just get started on a restoration even with my limited experience.

    Hey, I just stumbled upon your channel and I love the way you film! I like that you show the struggle, broken tools and ways to shops.
    It really shows that you are not just showing off and trying to impress anyone but want to take us with you and show how its going.
    Keep up the good work! ^^

    I used to always want the nicest and newest vehicle I could afford. Now, in my thirty’s…. I’d rather drive the $1500 40 year old beater with a heater.

    Always fun to get a rickety truck cheep, clean it up, address neglected maintenance issues, make it your own. Just an idea; "invest" (they are cheap) in a set of paint brushes or detailing brushes. Detailing those nooks, corregated wire looms, rough surfaces, etc., is so much easier with them than a Q-tip or a rag.

    Love this video man. Definitely subscribed. Growing up in the mountains of Eastern Europe I was always used to older, square body vehicles that were able to take a beating. When I came to the states I fell in love with trucks and I always thought older American trucks are just badass. Eventually I want to buy my own old American truck and fix it up
