The patina was perfect on the truck before they even touched it 😂😂😂
Came here to say this. They ruined it
I know this is a older episode but I still love it. My buddy just bought a 1952 F1 for $300.00. Yea thats right, three hundred dollars. Were starting the build this winter.
got one my self
Damn click bait. 1 minute of Ed, 6 minutes or Brewer ramble.
Truck looks awesome great job. This episode one of my favourites. Would be great to drive.
So they take a truck with perfect patina and put a lot of work into making a fake patina... Ooookaaayyyyy.......
Looks way better with what they did to it
That is exactly what I drove to High School back in 1979. I made it a flip front end and 292 V8

Decent looking project for the money they could have done better, no suspension/brake upgrades? Not a fan of the horsehide interior.
If I had one, I would section it just behind the front of the box and add 2 feet to the box, frame and driveshaft. I would ad 3 leaves to the back springs and one to the front. I would widen the stock rims 4" at the back and 2" at the front.Then I would put in a Lincoln V12 flathead modded to the max and straight pipes up behind the cab. Now THAT would be a truck.
Awesome episode of *"Wheeler Dealers"!* I would've kept everything as original as possible on the outside, while upgrading mechanically, including upgrading to an all-synchromesh 4 spd. manual gearbox.
I would replace the broken windshield & drive the crap out of it! How it was...
Can see why Edd left the show it a load of balls!!!!
Only thing that I don't like is that they turned it into an automatic.. they should have left it Manual..
I would normally agree however that thing looks like it would be horrible to drive as a manual
No....its just like driving a automatic. In our time you only learned on a stick or you didn't get your license to me it was just fun.
This is an old episode mis Edd China genius
Beautiful build man 👍
When did you replace the windshield?
Ed, admiro mucho tu trabajo, pero por Dios, cómo se te fue a ocurrir cambiar motor y caja original ?
Nothing wrong with the transmission just Mike is too stupid to use it properly if you are crunching gears you arent rev matching right hell when you get it dallied in you can even go down gears without the clutch. Man wouldnt last two seconds on a Ford TW tractor the crash box in it was almost bombproof so i would reckon this would be pretty similar in terms of reliability
Love the look and mechanics.
They should have gone with a 5 speed conversion.
I think they should have put really tiny wheels on it -- like from a supermarket trolley
If there was a old man who had a junk yard business in a poor area of Califorina, and a son to use the truck to pick up inventory, maybe you could sell the thing. Where might you find a buyer like that?
they never put in eds wages so i think they don't have any profit maybe a loss
my guess is that edd's wage was barely matched by what television paid for the show. A big gape to fill.
Please, full episode
Started with nothing...ended with same!
Edd forgot the clearcoat
The town is Twin Peaks, not the mountain range.
Please complete chapters
20G my ass!
Point of the rat look is to take a vehicle with natural patina and do what they say. That has been deliberately made to look ratty... and you can tell a MILE off. Not natural at all.
They shuld've just brushed of any lose dirt and rust and then given it a satin clear all over.
Asta oxidadas son lo maximo👍
l think he could have gotten $40,000 for it , to have a Rat rod built would have cost 30,000 upwards , what do you guys out there think ?
Man, that mike guy is annoying as all can be.
Wld u so tell me how he could able to create logo on window using steel?
He used an angle grinder to grind a piece of steel next to the glass ( having masked what we wanted to keep clear). The hot sparks fused into the glass creating the effect
It looked better before
They had me 'till they put in an auto trans.
nah l don't agree , wanna burn out the clutch stop/start in a traffic jam ? you & l know traffic is so different now a days , all stop & start, nah not for me , give me an auto anytime !
Don't confuse rat rod with patina. Ruined it.
Wait.. Edd and China are back?? hang on.. someone please explain wtf is going on. :S
this is before he left i think
I remember this from a couple + years ago.
pokiou ii
Edd China .. the short fat guy is mike..
i own one. My dad was the original owner
What? All that money and you couldn't find a proper gearbox? You put in a slushbox...really?
"oo hoo easy easy" faking it .
So sick of non car people wrecking classics 😡😡😡😡exactly why Ed left
fake . truck was prepared for show
Who buys this car now
its now for sale on car and classic .co .uk
New wd show should be cancelled immediately if not sooner.
Leaving a truck weathered and making the mechanicals operable is NOOOOT referred to as a rat rod. Fir all the clueless fans of these two ding dongs watching. So ya know. Rat rod is kind if an insult. They are something different and silly....made of mismatched parts.
RUSTY mismatch parts.
How bad they wanna be Americans
FK I would take out the crap ford engine out and put in a real engine . A 1975 Chevy 350 in it and make it a real truck . Well almost a real truck . A real truck would be a 1978 2500 Chevy fleetline long bed . Ho Hay
Why screw with a number 2 truck when you already have the number 1 truck?
People love the look and sound of a flathead, even though most OHV engines have more horsepower and a lower price. For those who want to keep it all Ford, a 302 or 351W isn't too expensive.
