This is routine for trucks on my grandparents farm. A newly purchased truck had two jobs,grandmothers grocery getter and take everyone to church on Sunday. It was kept in the garage at the house. It usually had that position for two or three years and then a new one showed up. The truck then moved to a working position each day mostly grandad drove it. Then the pecking order moved on down, there were usually four to five working trucks in operation each day. Then the retired trucks got turned over to grandkids to finish off. Most trucks purchased were used to work up until 1980. Before 1980 if you drove a truck to church you were a full time farmer rancher or you were poor. Trucks were cheap even the new ones. Good show!

Not trying to be “ that guy” but that galaxie was for sure a 67! All those trucks are awesome what a find!

now this is my kind of museum all that Ford stuff i'll be like a kid in a candy store,do have a soft spot for the older dodge pick ups too.

A 4 door Torino you automatically become "The Dude"

Man I am literally drooling over the mountains of part and hood and tailgates and 460’s geez. This is ford platinum

That's one hell of a collection. If I had space, I'd be bringing some of that stuff home for sure.

Always the best videos, you have a way of putting us there with you. I could walk thru those trucks for days.

Seeing these beautiful dent sides make me miss my 2 trucks. One was a '79 f-250 4x4 with a steel rockbox on it. It had a 390 running on propane. Just a great old bush truck. The second one was my baby. It was a '74 f-350 Ranger super camper special. It had a 390 auto. The drive line was a c6 auto going to a huge dana 80 diff, with drum brakes on all 4 corners. The box was the 8'6" one with the spare tire in the box side. All original matching numbers. Rust free except for the roof. It had sun rust. The paint was rare. It was ginger glow glamor with Wimbledon white. The color combo was not rare. But it was a early 74, made in dec. 73. But the ginger glow didn't come out till '75. The guy I bought it from said that his dad had special ordered it from the factory. I was going to do a frame off restore but I ended up in a accident by a drunk driver. I am now full-time in a wheelchair. So I had to get rid of it. Thanks for the great trip down memory lane. Cheers from Calgary Alberta Canada 🇨🇦

I've yet to see anyone else with a 70s f100 that's long bed and a step side. I have a 1972 Ford F100 Longbed Stepside and I always get so many compliments and questions about who restored it, painted it, etc. But it's all factory stock, bought it with 12k miles, and in 6 years brought it up to 31k. Getting her back next month and I'm so stoked!!

Been following on Solomon’s channel as well. These had to be the walkthrough of a lifetime. Only thing that’s 2nd is your junkyard trips. 😁 looking forward to more on your F100.

Hey guys if you liked this video and wanted to watch PART 1, watch it here! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/q512obdjqLO-Zas.html

86 was the first yr for EFI offered as standard equipment but only on the 5.0. All other engines were carbed till 87. And in 85 the EFI was a option on the 5.0 only.

I just found this video about 30 minutes ago and have been watching, and I love it . Thanks for the video !!! I loved the content and looking forward to seeing more . I am a Ford guy, so I just subscribed and will be seeing you later, so take care and stay safe and keep on making us more videos . 🤗👍💖💫

👍👍👍. Neat things you guys are doing. Keep doing it. I went onto the era web and seen the truck’s. Like the prices. 👍👍

Absolutely love the videos Craig. Keep it up

So Unbelievably jealous of your collection there fellas. Incredibly difficult to find parts in south jersey for 73-79 Ford trucks. Got a 79 F-250, 78 Ranchero GT(even harder to find stuff for) and an 88 Turbocoupe.

Great video!! I used to have a 67 Ford Truck. Dropped a 400 in that puppy and BAM... instant gas hog 🤣 Great truck though! Also, had a (bent to fit) chainsaw bar for a cab mount lol 🤙😎

Those supercabs, Thunderbird and 4 door Torino are awesome.

That's Ford heaven!! My first new truck was a 79 f250 4x4 long bed with a 300 six. I'm currently restoring a 79 Bronco Ranger XLT black with black interior 351m

What a genius keeping all of these great Fords

If you guys find bushwhacker extend a flare for 73 -79 ford trucks let me know I’ve been hunting for those for a decade

That monster truck is awesome. My buddies dad had quite a few fords. One was an ext cab with 12"lift and 44s. With a 460. It was badass. Also had the same setup in a 79 bronco.

I thought I was a rare breed geeking on fine details like you guys..but mostly with Dodges..Power Wagons are my thing..my old man was a storm window/door installer in the Chicago land area for over 30 years..his 1st truck was a mid 60's chevy..broke the frame..next was a Turquoise 68 ford F250 duel tank with 390/granny 4 on the floor then a 73 F250 custom beautiful midnight blue with white stripes on the bottom (never saw another like it to this day) 460/granny 4 on the floor both of these trucks were specifically ordered with split rims..something about running a higher load rating tire..also 2WD only..because he needed the truck lower to the ground for loading and off loading the windows and doors.. Then came the TURD 1978 F250 super cab beautiful emerald metallic green..he could not get a 460 for some reason and the other engine offerings were only 30 hp more then the 300 six..so he went with a 300/3 on the tree..blew out 2nd gear 3 times and stress cracks developed around the front spring shackle mounts for the rear axle..yes he used his trucks..it was a rare thing not to see the rear bumper a couple of inches off the ground for the life of the truck which was around 4 years..he was getting older so in 82 he downsized with a white F150 XLT 302/granny 4 on the floor..then a ranger..I know I haven't said much but this covered 20 plus years of using Ford trucks 300 plus days a year..that's a lot of time spent in the cab of one..

I am stoked to see what you have for sale trucks and parts !

78/79 ford truck and bronco heaven.....wow. I had a set of wagon wheels with heart and clubs shaped center holes. guess they came off a sand box truck. always wondered about them.

A buddy of mine lives in Soddy Daisy, he knows I am a big Ford truck guy and he sent me pictures of this guys stash a couple of years ago. What a great opportunity you got therE!!!!

My first vehicle was a lifted 77' highboy on 35's with the 460 big block and a 4 speed. It was nice to see all these rare fords.

Adding a comment about the Mustang II. I had a 76 Cobra II (bought new) Black w/Gold stripes Black interior 302 4sp. I stripped the syncros and it turned out to be a Dagenham 4sp.Ford cinched out on the drive train. I actually loved the car though.

Yes indeed now waiting for the truck unveiling that you got from the collection 😀

This is cool seeing all these trucks, late fords best looking pickups came from the late 70's

Seeing all those old Ford trucks makes me miss my dads 73 F100 with the 302 and 3 on the tree. He bought it new for 3 grand. Wouldn’t mind getting my hands on one.

Great vid, really enjoyed!! 👍👍

Sorry to say this but our next door neighbor had an identically painted 1978 Ford pick-up truck like your "Snickers". I always liked the paint scheme when I was a kid/young teenager. He bought the truck new in 1978 and drove it for about 15 years. By the early 1990's it was pretty rusty, even though for about ½ of its life it wasn't winter driven. He oil sprayed it every year that it was winter driven and for the first ~12 years he kept it immaculately clean up inside and out.

Sure love to be one of the lucky guys who gets the chance to own one of those Flareside/Sandbox beauty's!!! Lucky son of a guns finding all those amazing trucks and cars. Keep up the searching and collecting!!!

I'm more jazzed about the Torino's and Ranchero's sitting in that yard!

Recently acquired a 78,swb,4x4,351m,auto built by Turtle Top South, neat little rig.

This is the 3rd time I have seen all these but every time I see more stuff. Such an awesome hunny hole

Third sandbox had drivers side rear fender replaced. That's why there are no graphics. Inside of bed clearly shows newer hardware. Some great trucks. Thanks for sharing.

My little 1996 F250 is the last of a kind. mid 90s body with a 300 I6 with a slip-o-matic, the pullingest engine i've ever had. I trailered a 96 suburban from Dawsonville Ga. to the mountains of SW Va. with no issues at all. It came from the public school system in Martinsville Va., ZERO rust, oxford white, in great condition with 126,000. They almost gave it away. The 300 I6 is just about broke in!!

Interesting topic I had a brand new 78 Ford 150 sandbox I use it for everything off-road truck pulls mud running drag racing. It’s a shame you guys can’t see how customized the interiors were for the time shag carpet curtains and custom front seats. I still have a few nice pictures of my truck.

Vary awesome indeed. Nice 👍 collection that you have sweet. Keep up the great work. Okay.

Love this video those 460 big blocks can be turned into Boss 429 Jon Kaase makes cylinder heads boss 9s that would bolt 🔩 right up to those blocks cool walk threw toure love those trucks would make great daliy driver's keep up the great work

Nice stash of trucks sitting there, I am a fan of all American auto makers but I was really liking the Dodge trucks. That 429 Thunderbird would be a nice car to restore. Pretty sure that was an Owl on that truck door instead of a dove.

Wow amazing collections of fords

Dude, greatest information ever at 4:48 Where the VIN is on the frame... now I can verify my NEW Marti tag with the VIN/// thanks. I need Blue HOOD/ And driver's Door/ 79

Pure good stuff love Ford

My dad had the 1979 Bronco with the 351 Cleveland modified with a 4 speed granny gear trans. This Bronco was the California Edition with that airbrush paint jobs on the side . Here in Cleveland, Ohio it was the only one I ever seen in person as i was growing up. I wish he never used it as his daily driver going down to LTV Steel. That truck rotted out so fast from that place. It could not be saved at all when I was old enough to try an actually do something with it. But at least the motor and transmission lives on.

Terrific video wish it was longer love the Ford family of vehicles great styling If I had the $$$$$$$ I’d be there saying I’ll take that & that & & &. Fantastic Craig keep it going

I had a 75 F-150 Explorer orange with black stripes on the sides from the factory. Mexacelli Red (spelling?) was the color. Sharp with a 390!! Reminded me of the custom

Im a ford guy myself and i didnt realize there were so many custom paint jobs back in the 70s,but thats very good imformation.i just happen to know of 1.going to get that.thanks.

A few late 1985 F150s did have the multiport fuel injection, there was also some 84 to 85 models with the 2 barrel tbi setups on the 302 but there not common.

Here is maybe one to check out. I had a '77 f-100 flareside 2wd that had dual gas tanks. I was the second owner in the late eighties. To this day I have not seen another flareside with the front tank "gooseneck" filler.

I got something a little rare that I'm working on just kind of put on hold for now do to the money issues. But what I have is I don't really know if it's rare or not but I like it it is mine. A 1964 F100 short bed style side custom it still has the three on a tree transmission and the original engine in it that still runs I need floorboards brackets and a firewall and a tailgate. I would like to get the stuff from a junkyard upcycle this thing. And then I want two tone paint it it's got a nice patina on it if there was a way to save it I would but there's like five different layers of pain under it. It was a barn find I just want to bring it back to life.

My '67 F-100 was originally a sandbox. I swapped it out with a regular short bed fleetside as soon as I could. Yeah, I'm not a fan of step side beds either.

That Ford F250 Big Foot Is sweet

I’m in love with that mustang II Mach 1!

Wow nice rare find

My first truck was a 74 F250 Ranger 2wd back in 1989. Loved that truck. My dad's work truck was a 76 F250 Ranger Highboy back in late 70's. It was a hog on gas but it was one tough truck. Amazing collection !! I remember seeing those trucks everywhere "back in the day".

Craig, you should go live here, as it's Ford truck paradise !!

That 79 power wagon with the stacked headlight was rad I miss my 79 w200

Happy 4th of July to you and your family Craig

I remember seeing the 78 and 79 trucks brand new even the ones with the decals on them and the fancy interior.

Lmfao I'm not speeding I'm qualifying love that plate 🤣

I was a Ford man from 1957 to 2007. My first pickup was a white 1960 F-100 longbed with the 312 V-8 and 3 on the tree. My last was a blue 1990 F-150 shortbed with FI 302 and A4 rebuildable ($1280 in 2001) trans. Now I'm happily involved in a gold 2007 Toyota Tundra with regular cab and shortbed. = = So, how did I miss the rare F-100 as shown in your title? = =

I knew a guy that an Orange Explorer just like the one at 6:40. It was a great looking truck!

Speechless. I am absolutely speechless.

If that was my collection I would charge for tours love the Ford truck I have a 79 f100 short bed 2 wheel drive here in oak hill Ohio

Old 4wd Fords on white steel wagon wheels get me every time!

My uncle had a brown 78 Ford F150 short wheel base that had the yellow and orange and stripe on it and that truck was beautiful

Those pickups though! Nice

Love this place

Rome - he's a paint and patina magician.

That Ford f150 custom sand Box Step Side is nice

I was sold by 1:15 😂😂😅🤣😅😂😂😂☠️☠️☠️☠️

Wish I could have one of these!! So damn cool!!!

In my area about ten years ago scrap metal was very low I bought up every olf ford truck I could get. 74 trucks later and 100 classic cars. I have from parts to drivable. Don't have much chevy or dodge stuff. Wouldn't believe the stuff people sold me.

I sure really like the mach 1, sweet mustang

In 77 the 460 with the 4350 motorcraft 4 barrel carburetor was stock but a total failure. Do you have any idea what the Holley replacement was. I need the part number because the spread bore carburetors they list are qudrajet style not the same shape as the ford spread bore.

All Thunderbirds in 1969 -72 only received the 429 engine. In 73 the 460 became a option but the 429 engine was standard

I want so bad to have the man build my old truck back I had in my very late twenties. No it was no longer new, but the man who had it bought it new with the options and it was just about of all the rigs I have had, the nicest one. A 72 ford highboy that he had the original engine that ran just fine but he pulled it and the transmission as well. He put the 427 dual four carb engine with some great things to make it a great runner. Behind that was the heavy duty four speed with the hurst shifter, of course the divorced transfer case was from a 3/4 ton as the 1/2 ton one was a in or out single speed transfer case which were just a lame transfer case. That heavier case had the high and low plus neutral which the half ton didn't have that either if memory serves me right... that is one area I am kind of short for memory on. My truck was turquoise an white... an white top as well, all the glass had the chrome trim on it. I could not raise a good pile of money to get better wheels at the time so went with the appliance white wheels and 7:50 X 16 wheels and tires... those wheels were on my truck when a deal came to me to get a seventy foot by sixteen foot trailer home... at this time there were no houses in this area.. zero none. So it was take it or lose it an living in my truck was old in a hurry. I hooked onto the trailer home and pulled it out of this deep hole it was in an on a side hill pushing my tires nearly off those rims... those rims were holding against some of the most horrible weight that a man could imagine doing to his rig. They never bent or whined, just pulled that trailer out of there an instead of stopping to see if it was going to clear the stop light just ahead... I put my foot into it, an pulled that mobil home seventy miles an hour down the road for ten miles, came to the corner turn off to my place, took the only turnoff that would give me a chance to back up my steep driveway... talk about being glad that I had drove a logging truck for a few years by then... put the rig in reverse, and pushed that trailer up my driveway with the hitch digging into the roadbed. The wife an I had talked about using a dozer to get a home up the hill to the spot it needed to be in. Even I have a hard time believing it did it an I was the driver. I had that truck for a good many years, kept it in beautiful condition, not a speck of rust or a slight even touch of rust as it was just well undercoated and the paint was emeron with pearl... I just don't think I have ever had a better looking rig than that one.... and I have had many trucks, both big and small. I was driving one of my logging trucks I had just bought new, was setting on a high mountain landing to get a load of logs when on the radio for the small town came on with "trade 'E.'O.' " if you can sound that out. People called in and said what they had to sell or trade for. I heard this woman talking on the radio who sounded like the wife, she said she had a old four wheel drive rig that would most likely need some work so it was for sale for five hundred dollars an then the phone number... HELL, THAT IS MY DAMN NUMBER!!! I pulled out of the landing empty and ran to a phone to tell her not to sell my truck... it had been only a half hour since the add hit the air but she had sold it five minutes after the add hit the air. She even left some of my tools I had in the back to go with it! I really came close to divorcing her over it. I still should of. This is back when a new rig would only cost maybe ten thousand if fully loaded in 83... I had had that rig since it was only eight months old. The guy went straight to DMV and had the title in his name an I could not even force him to sell it back so tied him up in court for six months which I lost in court because we had been married for six months an It was not clear that I owned it before marrying her. I will be seventy three fairly soon an just miss that rig so bad. I would drive it if it only had the 390 with stock four speed in it. It didn't have the best gearing but they were the 3.73 gears. Posi in the back with that light duty dana 40 front end. It was just beautiful Craig. I think it was the Ranger XLT trim package. Long story short, I still get worked up over that rig

Dang that gold Torino was mint!

Im so dam jealous, lol .. u have al the great 78 and 79 fords..

I see we are behind on uploads 😆 this was before power tour obviously.

Sweet!

That 76-ish bright ass orange one… I knew a lady in the 90’s in Texas that had one. It was bad ass, had reflective graphic stickers on the side, hers was all original, small block, black vinyl bench working original A/C… only mod she had on it was a set of pipes with cherry bombs and echo chamber tips.

1985 was first year for efi my 85 f150 was factory efi 302!

Is this in Soddy Daisy,TN? I literally live here. I haven’t got to watch any of your videos in a while and I started watching this one and was like damn that looks like the industrial park. That’s crazy!

Truly a field of dreams

Finally someone else know sandbox package. Have space desert you name it. Bronco F150 . Few odd ball vynal top oval windows back..

That blue ranger shorty 😍😍

Behind the F28 there was a two tone blue with white top F250. I had a 76 like that.

that old Dodge Prospector short/wide in the background!

Cuda was taken on The 24 hour Lemans lmfao he called it 24 hour lemons 🤣🤣

Those sixth generation Ford F-series pickups which they also called "Dent sides" are very rare nowadays.

My dad had a 76 super cab short bed,it had a 460 c6..wish I had it now !

I had a Ford XLT extended cab longed It had a 302 with a carburetor the grey & blue colors

You have way screwed up hair Red, but your sense of humor put us in the same group 🤪

Hello guys I'm from Vegas and I seen your video here and I seen something that I'm really interested in which should be those two Torino's that you have right next to that f-28

I would’ve been 13 and one of the neighbors bought one of those trucks. Had a flaming volcano on the door. As a teenager that was the coolest truck I had ever seen
