@timhowe7650 i have built a few. So busy with 12 full builds currently and working alone 98% of time it is really difficult to post videos but might on this one. Don’t know how to edit and no camera person but will be showing at least the basics on this one. Take tons of photos. It would be great swap into your zj.

This exact bike? Mine was original down to the tires. I still have the parts taken off of it. Who did you buy it from? What state? How long have you owned it?

Yes from Naples Florida, bought it and had it shipped almost exactly last September 2023. Same bike and inside the tank still looks brand spanking new!

Bought it off of eBay motors.

You must of been the 3rd owner who removed the seat cover to find the pristine original seat. And restored a F100 in memory of your father I'm I correct? This was part of the story that the seller told me. Small world hu? It's a really nice bike!

@@tonystark9118 quite the bike it is! A twin to it and very low miles was my first mode of transportation when I got my drivers license way back in 1973. This bike was a very lucky find. Yep, that is part of story. I still have the original dealer installed seat cover plus a bunch of small parts removed plus some NOS parts, A few manuals, books.

@@cl885 it would be!

@@roadtesttv thanks much!

Thank you kindly!

Thanks!

@@GorillaCookies many many moons ago i put a 20k mile 1968 Thunderjet in a 1946 Ford coupe. It ran very well. I remember doing a compression check and all were 225 psi. 1979 i dropped a tunnel rammed 429SCJ into my 1970 Boss 302. It was a real rocket.

@@GorillaCookies there were a few built for sure.

@@stephenmurphy4604 ok, ask. I am on both N groups

All these type of swaps a ton of work but it’s the end result i look forward too.

Thanks Much! For now the plan is giving it 6 weeks to see how far I can get. So many other projects should be before it. Hoping to at least get the rolling chassis done for now. Kinda HOT out for any paint work. Monsoon season here now.

@@henrymanqueroz5355 Cobra Jet C6 with Gear Vendors Overdrive.

@@bewareofmountainlions4429 This engine was purchased (donor truck) was purchased by a friend way back in 2016 for another ‘66 F100. He gave up on project basically never attempted the swap. 5 yrs ago i found this 1966 F100 4x4 no engine basically just rolling chassis. I then just had donor truck sitting here so figured put it on list of many projects. Since i had already Done 2 3.5 Eco swaps into 66 trucks called Eco1 & Eco2 thought it would be fun to call this Eco2.7. I then sold project to neighbor. He tinkered off & on for few yrs then walked away. A year or so ago i bought it back as project stalled. So here i am! In the meantime i did the 3.5 Raptor crate engine 10R80 swap in my ‘66 shortbed. I am doing a 7.3 zilla 10R140 in another 66 & my daily driver is a ‘23 STX 5.0. So this just happened & dare to be different. Should put down 400 hp to tire. Plenty for a daily driver.

@randysrestoration Damn. What a history. I would say good luck, but from the sound it, you don't need it. Happy building, and thanks for sharing.

@auskip07 says the kid who’s training wheels fell off his bike..

Welded up the 5 holes on the Dana 44 hub then re-drilled to the Late model F150 6 bolt. The Dana 44 hub was within .010 of the 150. THen made brackets to adapt the F-150 brakes. I posted a short on how true the brake/wheel adaption is a few days ago. I simply used the F150 rotor for proper drilling of the Dana 44 hubs. I will be giving more details as progress is made. Right now it's fitting it all together making it work prior to teardown for body/paint and final finish. I want to use a lot of the electronics to make it a really nice driver that has great power and MPG. It will have locking diffs front and rear.

@Thomas Olson It’s a direct bolt in.

@Thomas Olson I am doing 2 more Ecoboost swaps right now. Plus a 2023 7.3 gasser with 10 speed. Al in 1966 Ford Trucks.

They are great cars! Thanks much for taking time to reply!

@mysteriomarvel933 sounds like a nice truck! What got me started on these trucks was when dad pulled into driveway October 1965 with a brand new 1966 F100 red with red interior. I am building clone of it now. I have a perfect 1965 Grille just not sure which truck i will use it in. Dash cluster used in this truck original bezel was from 2018 F150 donor truck.

@Shawn63200 And you were the only other person that got to drive it other than me!

@shawn63200 which orange one?

I think the new Mustang GTD will top them all if i can make it happen! Just being selected for allocation is exciting enough.

@tompastian3447 you made another post can you re-post it? I went to hit reply and somehow deleted it. What ads are you seeing?

@@randysrestoration RUclips has frequently been running ads in Spanish on English videos. I call them out on it whenever they do. It really makes no sense for advertisers to have their ads in foreign languages or to offend those who watch videos. I have occasionally made complaints to radio stations that broadcast in English but will insert Spanish ads.

Thanks! We did take it for short drive yesterday. Sure drives different! Working on my own stuff today but hoping we can wrap it up next week. Need to charge the AC and get the bumpers on and adjusted. They simply do not fit right vs the stock chassis. Will need modification of sorts. Still need to figure out what tire wheel package to go with as wheels that were on it prior to frame swap no longer fit. Engine in new chassis is a inch or two further forward so the cooling fans to not fit. Always something.

How long did he own car?

Sounds fun! At 21 i bought a 1967 Mercury Capri R code. 425hp 427. Not a single ticket.

Thanks!

I see an ls engine, 99% certain. Oil pan, knock sensor, starter bolt holes...I gotta know now!

Year is correct. Make model not. 9” ford diff but hint is engine/transmission = make of car

1956 Chevy Superglide and a 265 🤔 😂

@@jp360ford2’56 BelAir 4L60E with LS3 crate engine. Roadster Shop spec chassis.

@@randysrestoration dang. The “weird” looking oil pan should have been a dead giveaway. 😂 I was thinking it was original but with some upgrades. Definitely the latter. That was fun! You should do another one! 👍🏻

In the fairlane yes. Cyclone GT could be 4 spd, C6 or mid year Sport Shift (C-6) This car does have the Sport Shift version.

Thanks! Just paint and thorough cleaning and few wear n tear items.

Thanks for stopping by and taking time to comment!

We painted it 26 yrs ago. Held up well.
