In this video I focus on the tear down portion of my 1968 ford shop truck, pickup a utility box for the trucks new bed, and eventually get the body of the truck off of the old frame. This is video number two of an ongoing series. The last video I starting my auto Fusion series where I am taking two completely different platforms and using the best parts of each on to make the perfect shop truck. Yes, this is a chassis swap, v8 swap, suspension swap, body swap, and much more. I did not know exactly how to describe the process so we are going with platforming as well as auto fusion. This is a 1960's ford truck going onto a Lincoln Town car chassis. This is a lot more common with the crown vic, but it is all the same stuff. Let me know what you think and thanks for watching.

You’re more practical than most car KZfaqrs. Everyone just cuts and trashes. There’s rhyme and reason in your tear down with an eye toward the future utility of the parts.

If you need a few more inches to get the cab higher and make it easier get 4 large wood blocks. You can cut a slot on the top that sockets the wheels.

Those gantry A lifts are good investments. And from the looks of yours it's a good quality one. So A+ for forward thinking. But if it's made of steel I suggest painting it with rust proof paint to keep it sturdy specialy because it is outside. Keep up.the good work 😀

Good video. I think I need to buy myself one of those gantrys ? Helps for you to explain and being honest about how this this is no easy project. Take your old cab and make a C-cab out of wood like it was from the teens or early twentys when they only sold a chassie and you built your own body. You will miss the usefully of the truck till you rebuild it. Will be watching

That's an ambitious project. A bit confused though. Are you building this as a replacement to your shop truck, or just for coolness and looks? If it's still going to be used as a truck, the car suspension will not be very usefull for hauling stuff. Just wondering.

The old truck was so old and worn out I wouldn’t use it for more than running up to the home improvement store 5 minutes away. This will become such a better vehicle for me

gantry crane is verry usefull , though if you had spend a bit more money you mightve been able to get a (used) 2 post lift and that wouldve been a lot more usefull (probably couldve mounted it on the slab behind the shop ) and do the same things the gantry could (lift stuff off trucks and things like that )

Just saw a video on a body swap to diffrent chassis you guys did. I have a 93 E150 Club Wagon Van 5.8L and was wondering, can I get a wrecked truck with modern/newer chassis,better TRANS and motor to do the same,AND if so,witch truck would be the one to get.? P.S. I don't want to have to modify anything, would just want to take the body off my van that's in Gd condition, AND put on the newer truck chassis.
