Man, that is the perfect pickup. They don't make them like they used to.

You did an amazing job restoring your truck. I haven't seen what it looked like before but I have a 1992 4x4 XLT which has all the same rust spots that you mentioned on yours. You have inspired me to start fixing it up. It runs great but it isn't the prettiest one on the street. Thank you for uploading this video and looking forward from the beginning and watching the entire process.

you have a lot of patience and knowledge. Inspires me to restore my 94 Bronco EB

Thank your for making the restoration videos, I've been following them restoring my grandpa's 95 f150

Beautiful project and workmanship.

Cool video. I think it was worth rebuilding. Look at what the truck cost new and what it costs to buy new today.

Love what you've done with the restoration!! . I drive a 95' calypso green extended cab 6'er. Your videos are rather inspirational. I'm lamenting the tear down from the underside-up in order to find an engine oil drip somewhere around the main bearing ( 1qt every two months or so( enough to leave an embarrassing blemish on driveways), along with some electrical issues (turn signal ground issues? power window p/s won't go down). She has 175k mi of west coast Canadian history, needless to say there is relatively little rust or corrosion damage. Anyway, I'm very impressed with your work.keep it up!!! Magnus,

Beautiful truck. And an awesome Job. I love these obs ford trucks. They have that badass tough look.

I'm sure you hear it every time you take it out, but that is a beautiful pickup! I have a 92 f150 I inherited from my grandpa. I hope it can look as good as yours someday. Cool video thanks for posting it

you fall in love my friend, that happen to me with my Ford Bronco 1993, saludos from Mexico

Back when Built Ford Tough was literal. Beautiful truck there TFS. I got a 1996 Ford F-150 and am going to start working on it very soon. I have no experience with restoring old trucks so this is a new one for me. Very good video.

Thank you very much for your video. Your truck is amazing, I don't blame you for not wanting to take it out in the elements which rusted it in the first place. I have a 95 f150 myself, it's not a 4x4 but I would still love to fix it up and get it looking really nice. Maybe if I decide to go through with it, I'll be able to ask you some questions!

Just picked up a rust free ‘90 F150 XLT Lariat 5.0 2d long bed Tennessee truck for 1k. Great to come across this, it gives me tons of ideas and confidence to do a lot of work myself

Well worth it brother! Thanks for sharing.

Just got my a 1993 Ford f150 long bed made in new port news Virginia 2nd owner with 90k miles .thing looks like it came off the factory floor . Love it

This is legit my dream truck right now. This is how I'd like mine to look when and if I get one.

Got a '93 and stumbled across the channel earlier, subscribed and love the channel!

I just started working on my bringing 94 5.0 4x4 back to life. Got it running today and took it for it's first drive in 8 months. I've got a long way to go and will be checking out your vids. Consider me subscribed. Nice truck you've got there.

I loved my OBS Ford F350 dually powerstroke with the five speed. It came with a few issues like the transmission had some slop in it and some bushings took care of it, the steering column bearings were so far gone that as luck would have it, I found one for a hundred that was a duplicate if mine with the very same controls.. made me so happy and so easy to change out... one of the very easiest ones I've repaired as I'm seventy three and a cripple. Mine was a factory flatbed, aluminum with the tool boxes and other features. I am mentioning all of this because my brothers was the regular cab and mine was the quad cab with a visor over the windshield. I didn't see it in your brochure so not positive its factory now. One thing for sure, it came from the dealer with it on the rig and boy howdy.. really dressed it up. Alcoa aluminum rims that were sixteen inch with the 245 X 16 by 7" wide rim.... that was really a nice fit. All in all, at two hundred seventy thousand and still like new inside. It does have the "Pleather interior". Bucket seats and console. Its still factory paint and has absolutely zero rust on it yet its a work truck. It has escaped all of the usual dents or rust somehow here in alaska. If I were to customize it, the interior would be the 2010 King Ranch or the Harley Davidson interiors design with cameras... it does present some challenge to get into a parking space at times

Your tuck is awesome. My truck project has been put on hold until late spring. Going to get a box on Friday though 👍

great video , enjoyed it. and informative. I just purchased a 1994 F 150 4x4 Lxt LB. with the 5.8 l so look fwd to making some similar mods. Thanks. .

Nice truck Fox! I have a 92 Xl 4x4 single cab long bed 4.9 5 spd w/307k and it will need a lot of work.

Wow you really went to town on that thing !! I have a ‘93 shortbox flareside so I totally understand why you did it, one of the most reliable vehicles Ihave ever had

man I've been watching this channel on and off for a few weeks now, and it's taken me forever to realize why I like your trucks so much; I may not have had am f150, but my first truck was a 94 ranger, and I think I love these videos because what you're doing is what I wanted to do with that truck while I had it, keep up the videos man, I love em!

Money well spent. Fantastic job 👏

What a beautiful truck. Well done

Great truck really nice i have a 1995 f150 short bed work in progress putting a 460 big block in it lifts and have 2 fix the body im about 8000 but that mostly the motor and the transmission rebuild

Your Pickup looks beautiful! I wish I could do that. I have a 94 F150 that I may try to put new cab corners on and front fenders.

I'm glad you put up this vid along with all of the others. Your truck looks amazing, I know that you spent a lot of hours on it. Do by chance how many hrs. you put into her? Thank you for recording everything you did and showing us the tools and products you used. Another thing that was nice is you added the company's name your purchased the products from. Thank you for all the videos you made for this truck.

Aaaa love the bed lights sweet

I recently bought a 93 F150 Xlt long bed with low mileage. Through selling some things, doing odd jobs, and working, I've begun to make her the truck I've always wanted. It has an aftermarket fuel system, cold air intake (with a custom made airbox to prevent from mud), cab lights, cb radio, new toolbox, and a new sound system. Buy selling old stuff, the only money I've put into it from working is about $100. I plan within the next 2 month to do a 6" suspension lift, larger wheels and tires, a black widow muffler, a new set of headers, and a headache rack. All said and done, I priced it out to where my grand total should be about $4,500-5,000 (including purchase price of the truck). I can't wait to have her all said and done. Keep making awesome videos!

Awesome truck I have a 1994 XLT lariat 6 foot box regular cab and a 1996 XL six foot box regular cab I have installed new engines and all the mechanics of the trucks I have yet to do anything with the bodies yet you have done an excellent job on yours I could only wish mine come out nearly as nice as yours you have inspired me 😊

Well worth it don't make like they used to got one I am starting in spring might do some videos.hope to see more. Great video

Beautiful rig. I'm working on a 94 Bronco. Plan on buying an f150 to drive around while it's getting restored. Lol then I'll restore the f150

always love seeing videos with this truck. Gotta love breaking bolts off in the block eh? Had one stud break nearly flush with the timing cover on my 95 5.0 when i had to replace the water pump and basically said screw it until I rebuild the engine. just one of the many things needed to be done to that truck

Looks great mate I want one hey, cheers from Australia 🤙

Your price is right on point too. It’s about 10k to do one of these trucks the way you did. Excellent job. I’m starting on my second 95 as we speak.

$3,000 into my 1987 ford bronco 5.0 body work is too come

Best case scenario on the window fix! i could hear the motor "click" inside the door when i pushed the UP button but nothing happened on the DOWN button. turns out to be a dirty switch (years of rain drops on it?). Simple disassembly 101. Those little jobs are fun. Now i'm attempting to sort out my next electrical issue. Spooky wiring. Headlight-switch position/hazard lights/turn signals. it's consistent. could it be as simple as a common ground location that's corroded or ???. i have no idea how much the previous owner was rooting around behind dash. I swapped the multi function switch, to no avail. ughhh

nice job- there is nothing like these older fords -- i saved/rebuilt a 93 F-350 4x4 last summer from the junkyard/crusher.

Beautiful truck👍

Just found your channel and I gotta say, that is one good looking truck.

I have a 93 f150. 5.0 Good bones 🇺🇸

my trucks in the same condition. found a guy selling my truck I had when I was 18 so I bought it. going to slowly do this as well. its dark hunter green and im going to add that same 2 tone style to it.

Great channel great information I plan on restoring one as well!!!

super cool Mr fox I'm doing little work on my f150 1991 l6 300. need alot of work but but real good shape an runs funny CO macanics say bad gas cause gas was black both tanks work runs good for a while then starts like stalling out I have replaced alot still dose it but dnt entirely cuts off in confused

I have a 96 f150 and I'm gonna be doing mostly what you have done to yours I can't wait until it's done

Ive got a 96 f150 how did you get the hood to line up properly, i had my hood latch assembly get a all caught up and ever since i fixed it the hood hasnt lines up proper

Nice truck you did a good job. I would have kept the original bed too, In the winter if you stop at a diy car wash once every couple weeks and spray off the salt from under your truck it won't rot. Pain in the ass yes but it will keep it from rotting.

sharp looking truck for sure! im currently restoring my 88 f150 4 wheel Drive 5spd manual, 302 * building a 351w"

I have a 1995 F350, and I really want to convert it to a four-wheel drive, I love this truck and really don't want to let it go, but how much would I realistically be looking at cost-wise if I got a shop to do a 4wd swap on a OBS F-350?

I have the same truck and I have a tip for all of the plastic in side of the truck I put tire shine on it. It makes it last longer and shine nicely as for the floor I use a wet rag and wipe it then use the tire shin and it look really good.

Ya, you saved yourself a tonne of loot doing the work yourself! That truck looks absolutely perfect, you made the right choice staying with the old school 15's for sure. It's badass but tasteful. Take it easy buddy!

Hey Jon! I love your videos! I have a ‘95 F150 Xlt 4x4 that I’m starting to restore. I would like to paint mine like yours. How much did it cost to paint it?

Great Job Sir!

So how long did it take to restore? Where did u buy all your parts?

I got a 95 ford f150 the freeze plugs blow out what would be the best way to get to the plug that is right behind motor mount on drive side

Ive been working on my 95 crew cab f-150...its hell to find parts for me...atm its finding a dome light

Motivation for my 94 f150

This is a great truck but 10k just in parts without any additional power upgrades seems like a lot of money to throw at a half ton. I won’t finish mine to this level but I bought a 96 4x4 f150 with 150k long bed for 600 bucks. I’ve got 900 bucks in brake lines, coil spring mounts with front leveling kit, rr shackle mount and hanger, glass pack muffler and custom tailpipe, this includes paint for the frame as well. I still have to do four patch areas, oil pan alignment, tires and paint. At most I think I’d have at most 3500 total in it to do a similar job with similar resale value so I still am a little shocked at 10k but it is a great looking nearly new truck at probably a quarter the price of a new 5.0 4x4.

I am sure someone has asked this but did you change the gear ratio when you went to the 35" tires and yes the 15" wheels look Great. I am building a 95 F150 single cab short bed. 138,000 miles and almost no rust. I got lucky there. I will be installing a BDS full 6" lift with extended radius arms and new BDS rear leaf springs, 35" BFGoodrich AT K02`s 4:56 gears, I am building a 351 lightning motor with a few upgrades. Your truck is so nice looking! Thanks for posting.

Classic beauty 👌😍

Beautiful truck

great job on your truck looks great we just started on mine on our channel but have to wait for the funds to do more lol. anyways thanks for the motivation to fix my 96 up.

Does anyone know the motorcraft part number for the lower radiator hose for a 96 f150 5.0

Great video Jon. I'm afraid to find out how much I'm into mine for, however it's still a lot less than a new truck!

Love that truck!

I just got a 93 Ford F-150 I’m 16 I plan on restoring here soon

Just bought a 94 XLT for $1000. Would love to get the truck to the same kind of condition your have yours in. It’s great getting looks when in it. Even better once they realize it’s an Asian dude behind the wheel hahaha! We’re in Iowa as well!

My grandpa has a 1968 Ford Bronco that's been sitting in his barn for a while. Wish you'd do something with it, grandpa

Im about to buy a 92 shortbed 4x4 with the 5.0 and 5sp. Already lifted 4in. Definitely subscribing as I work on restoring it

I got a 1989 F150 in ok shape, no rust: I can do some cosmetic work but no mechanical stuff; who could I get to bring it to the level of your truck? thanks.

I purchased a 1994 F150 5.0 this exact SAME color, a rare color. It’s an XLT also. Purchased it for 500 bucks.

I love it.

New subscriber, what lift are you running?

i hate regular cabs but i love your truck so thats saying something

I'm working on my 95 f150. took it all the way Dow. to the frame and redid pretty much everything. only have about $2300 into it and that was mostly mechanical along with a new inline 6. now its time to do some body work and repaint it

Freaking awesome setup, I had a 96 F150 5.0 Eddie Bauer and it was gorgeous but I traded it in. Wish I still had it. Btw, what song is that at the beginning? Thanks

Shop fox what’s the name of those lights you put in the bed of the truck and where did you buy them

I do some work for a guy that likes to restore stuff that's cheaper to replace . But as he keeps telling me when I point out how it's a waste of money . It's still cheaper than a therapist ! Ole truck looks good hope it goes another 20 years

That’s a bad tuck man, I have an 1989 lariat f150 5.0 just did the fuel pumps and gas tanks bout to get tires but I’m still looking for trim paint looks really good on it though.

I have the same truck and have replaced the clockspring and had the cruise control speed switch on the master cyl. recall done and replaced and cruise control still does not work :( any suggestions

Thanks for the vid and details. What size lift do you think it equaled out to? Thanks

like your truck very nice!

Hey great video love the truck and the paint color what size lift did you go with to run the 35s and thinking to lift my truck in about like to go with bigger tires and I was thinking 35's

Love what you have done on truck. I think I've seen about all your videos. I've got a 95 f150 4x4 and was wondering if you could tell me the wheel size and offset you used. Looking for some new wheels for my ride. Thx man

And what size lift kit if you put one in

I've been wondering how I can fix my front bumper from sagging. It doesn't sit flush with the rest of the truck. Do you have any advice?

How was your radiator/grill support? And ahh man that goddam water pump bolt broke on my truck but I got lucky with the timing cover no cracks I LOVE MY 95 5.0

Nice truck, couldn't agree more with you on tires and wheels Trucks look so much better with smaller wheels gives you a nice tire sidewall . Why people put 22 or 24 inch wheels on their truck beyond me with only around a 55 or 60 inch side wall ratio but each their own . I just recently did a 2 1/4 inch leveling kit went with Bilstein shocks all the way around ride is AMAZING didn't want to go with strut spacers glad I went the Bilstein route . I kept my 17 inch diameter wheel did go with raceline wheels 17x9 renegades and went with duratrac 315-70r17 tires love the duratrac wen I bought my 13 F150 NEW I had put 285-70r17 on it . Have to say my new set up transformed my 13 F150 into a beautiful piece of art my opinion . I do have a question for you why didn't you do a spray in bedliner think I know what you will say and I would probably agree with you.

Can tool cost really be put in tho ,they are gonna be used on lots of projects. I would imagine.

Nice truck where did you get the led light for the bed

Do you have all the how to videos on this project.? I bought a 92 F150 ext cab and if I run into any problems i can just look it up under your playlist.

nice truck

It's great to see someone breathe air back into the OBS. Where did you find replacement pin stripe tape.

Im in about 6 grand but that's with paying $2800 for the truck with two sets of rims and new tires Flowmaster exhaust stainless pipes all the way new leafs all suspension brake lines plus many other goodies like matching toneau cover but it wasn't all peaches and cream had to replace radiator grill support plus there was no a/c so I installed a new one new water pump was a nightmare bolt broke luckily left meat hanging enough to remove so I have about 3500 in parts forget man hours new trans lines the truck is very clean

Do you know what the color code is for that color blue?

You should do 4bt cummins swap. It would really cool video. It would get better mpg.

Did you put a 4 inch or 6 inch lift and what tire and rim size or they? Also, what brand are the rims? Thanks in advance!

I wanted to ask you if you replaced the front bumper. Mine is rusting from the inside out through the chrome plating. I wanted to replace it, not sure if I can get an OEM bumper but I did find a few aftermarket ones. Problem is I just don't know about about the quality. Guage of the steel, fit & finish etc. Could you recommend something. Thanks much! Love your videos!!!
