Nice….”FO D”!!!! I salute your tenacity! Where there’s a Will, there’s a way! Looking forward to your ongoing efforts!! 👍👍

Got good metal in it still....amazing. Nice find. Front brakes are 75% of your stopping power....very important. 😁 Nice old truck, Thanks for the video.

Thanks for the reminder on the brake hose, I replaced one front hose but never replaced the other front hose on my Camaro-- I bought one but never put it on. Thanks for the reminder. Keep up the good work.

Great video! These trucks were sometimes used up...completely. Brakes, motor, trans, steering, gauges. Everything needs to be touched. But it's great these are pretty simple without all the electronics and sensors that make new engines so difficult. Thanks for bringing it back to life!

Great resurrection of an old truck video. Well thought out and explained. Nice patina on the truck and +1 for Ohio 330!

That is a good battery you got there. I worked on a 1970 F100 302. Some amateur put 3 gaskets under the carburetor and warped the throttle shaft. I Swap in a 2100 Autoline carburetor and it fired up just right. No major adjustments, just have a helper to put it in gear and set the mixture.

The high idle may have to do with massive air leaks .. vacuum lines and intake. . Nice truck

i love how the entire truck shakes just from getting in and out

i'm really happy to see you bringin' this 'Ol Girl back to life! you've done a lot of Great work to her! you motivate me to get back on my '72 Shortbed i started 13 yrs. ago. thanks!

I understand about being frugal with spending and all. But I would have (and have done so myself) just went ahead and purchased new shoes and hardware kits for both sides. Especially rather than trying to refurb that rusty adjuster. It's just so inexpensive to replace it, especially where safety is concerned. On the plus side great job on that carb rebuild and it sounds pretty good idling in the shop! Get yourself a new radiator and cap, a look at that power steering and you'll be good to go. Wish I had a shop, especially one that size!

I’m more impressed of where you live, beautiful.

She's on the road again!!!👍

Dang, young feller you do a good job on them old fords, proud of you, Merry Christmas

Good vid thanks happy iv found your channel regards from England

Nice find. Those are good old trucks. If you got good gas and a hot battery those trucks will fire and run. Keep up the good work.

Little tip from Australia, wear a mask! Those shoes are full of asbestos! Loving the channel.

That’s a beauty! I love those old ford trucks. Good job!

I didnt know Matt Damon was a mechanic and an actor.😆

Another stack of great I information! Great video!

Enjoyed both videos. Thank you for sharing!

Subscribed! Great save! I love old Ford truck videos. However, you look like one of my kids high school baseball teammates- you miss practice workin on this truck, and coach is gonna be pissed! Can't wait to see whats next!

Matt Damon’s stunt double on his free time fixing cars.

Sounds like motor healthy also got lots life ahead too for V8 & keep fix to be road worth and enjoy lots too!

Excellent job. You did exactly what I would have done. Compliments to the drone pilot too. Good skills. Mart.

enjoying these videos..and am sure i am not the first one to tell you that is a nice shop...

That thing is cool. Good show! Keep it coming

Great video! I'll be working on my old 70's Chevy now. Thanks for the motivation.

Small channel with good content, can’t wait for you to blow up one day! Keep it up

Loving this series

That rad. cap is toast!

pretty sweet old truck. I love those old bump side Fords. the power steering on them just used type F tranny fluid. if you use regular power steering fluid in it you will burn out the pump.

Subscribed !!! Great job I like that you're not beating the hell out of it keep up the great work

You look like you’d be a State Trooper as weird as that may sound. Great video!

I love old Ford's!!!.. some cool shit here Dude!! ALWAYS GOOD TO SEE A RESCUE LIKE THIS!!.. KEEP MORE THESE VIDEOS COMING!! GOOD JOB! I'm also a new subscriber..

If you run into vapor lock issues in really hot weather run two fuel filters. One into the fuel port on the carb and one inline. I owned a 74 360 back in the day and found out about this little trick!

Bravo! Love the videos, Subbed & Oh... You deserve much more views.

Great videos. Keep it up!

Love it man, keep up the good work

Truck is in pretty decent shape considering i have seen a lot worse on vice grip garage's channel and dylan mccools channel. Would like to see the progress on this truck.

Nice work man, not sure how old you are but you’re very impressive. Can’t be anymore than 30.. and know what you know, able to drive a 3 on the tree. I stumbled upon your videos I’ll be following from now on! Keep up the good work.

You must adjust the idle lean screws in the front of the carb at the bottom to make it idle smooth. Use your vacuum gauge and take vacuum off the manifold some place. adjust for max vacuum about 17 to 21 lbs all are different.

Nice save! Let's see a proper level 1 restoration for daily driver use.

Good job dude 💯

careful with that brake shoe material it may be carcinogenic .great video.Les Manchester England

Nice job man!

Don’t forget to clean and lube the sliding points for those shoes Matt.

I watched your first vid and I instantly subscribed

Love that the oil additive bottle lasted so long!

-Oops, your radiator fan is on backwards... (28 min 40 sec)

I've had 2 different 73 model fords. First one had a 360 with a 4 on the floor (granny low) and the second one had a 302 with a 3 on the tree...both trucks were fun to drive, I was young then though and sold em..😔 still hate myself for it

Only had to watch 1 video to know to subscribe. Keep it comin 😉

I love the fact you can find an old car /truck in the woods get it running and drive it home in the US In the UK it's a bit more complicated than that ot has to be fully MOTED ( Ministry of transport tested ) and taxed and insured before it can go anywhere near the road

Oh by the way Love you're place!!

That sounds real nice

Man your knowledge is really good dude...you got a new sub 💪🤜🤛

Ok,l will check it out.Thanks

I love old Ford trucks. I have one myself.

New subscriber here!looking forward to more new content!

you probably already figured this out but for anyone needing to fix their choke cable there is a z bender tool for lawn mower cables that puts a new z bend in the end of cables that would fix this issue

I would recommend lining up the spark plug leads just to tidy up the engine bay a wee bit and prevent any cross sparking from them just in case. My only criticism. Liked your previous vid. Makes it more enjoyable seeing all the problems taken care of before you start cranking the engine about 100 times like u do in some videos other guys share.

You should have a million subs

The 67 was the only year with the narrow shoes. Be careful driving with no power steering. The ol rag joint won’t handle that!

Those wheel brake cylinders u could possibly clean them out and hone them out for spares.

Looks like it needs clutch adjustment. It should start to pull the truck at 1-1/2 to 2 inches off the floor. If your knee comes up past your ear, it's time to adjust the clutch.

nice truck

When you tore the brake drum apart there was no self adjusters on it. you didn't show putting it back together but I assume you didn't know they are required (that they work is a different story). There is a cable with a eye ring on it that slips on before the brake springs at the top and goes around a pivot bracket that goes under the bottom of the rear brake spring. It hooks into a bracket that turns that self adjuster as the brakes cycle. With out them on you have to adjust that self adjuster as the pads wear.

You can work on my truck anytime, good job 73 Ed

Doing great buddy. Ignore the haters.

Really enjoying your videos. Well edited and very handy information for us hopefuls. Where do you live by the way. Nice job!

Man, this is fun to watch! I subscribed last night. What state or area of the country are you? I get asked this a lot on my channel, so sorry if I missed it somewhere in the comments or in one of your first few videos I've watched.

Enjoyed the videos.Were you checking vacuum at the distributor advance location at the carb ? That's ported vacuum,only has vacuum at off idle.

Looks like the throttle's pretty responsive now.

Just found your channel your pretty sharp for being so young. Never saw anyone heat the adjuster up to get it to turn. Nice shop too

Just subscribed! Nice video's! When I finish some of my projects, A 67-69 f-100 is my next project!

Ok ...so what punishment should we issue our host for calling drum brakes "rotors" folks? 10 lashes with an old fan belt or upper radiator hose perhaps?

I would put music in the time lapse parts of the video while you're working on stuff...less dead air lol

Reason why it dont go any where fast is its gear ratio is too high for pulling and torque. Could be a 411 or 373 gear for torque and crawling.

Awsome

The reverse light is out

Disc brake conversion...maybe a good investment.

Nice

I am doing the exact same thing to my 70 right now, I tried to break free the bleeder screws and failed

Great channel I’m from Brazil and I’d like import any parts of F series my question is how I do this?

Please buy a proper brake tool to deal with those springs. Makes the job so much easier. And you won’t bust up your hands like you can with vise grips.

You should swap the 3 speed manual transmission 4 a NP 435 manual transmission with granny gear.

Im jealous.

Nice truck! Leave the patina:)

Hook up the vacuum advance

Is that fan on backwards? Got a glimpse of it

paul walker turned youtuber back to holliwood to follow with fast and furious

Coisa linda de Deus

I got a 68 Fairlane I need some help with he'll of a job on the truck

Ever check the oil pressure? Anyone?

Did you get some of those $14.99 boneless wings?

Fan blade is on backwards

That thing idels way to hi

Do all you midwest guys have full garages and all the land to do what you want how about pulling cars out of the woods with horses that would be awesome!!@
