Stabilizing the Cab and Preparing For MAJOR Rust Repair!!!
First goal of this week is to get the cab into a safe position to cut the rust out of the cab. I’ll build a brace to hold the cab up by the cowl. Next, I’ll review all the replacement panels for the cab and my plan to execute the repairs. There’s a long road ahead but I’m excited to learn and fix up grandpa’s abandoned F150!

BUILDING a Cheap DIY Truck Cab Jack and Transporting the Abandonded F150 Cab.
Просмотров 35414 дней назад
It's finally time to get to work on the cab! But before I can start chopping the rust out, I need to get the cab out of storage and back to my shop. My dad, nephew and I were able to get the cab out of dad's lumber shed and loaded on the trailer with the skidsteer. That was the easy part. The hard part was getting it unloaded, by myself, without heavy equipment. I'll show you how to build a che...
REVIVING an Abandoned International Pickup Truck! WILL IT RUN AND DRIVE?!
Просмотров 9 тыс.21 день назад
We pulled this 1972 IH 1110 truck out of the weeds to see if it will run and drive after 11 years off the road. My dad and nephew gave me a hand this week with the goal of driving this old International Harvester truck back to my dad’s shop. I love this old truck and I have big plans for it. Stick around until the end of the video for a sneak peek at my vision for this truck.

Repairing the RUSTY Floor of My Dentside Ford Truck Bed!
Просмотров 529Месяц назад
This week I finally wrap up the last of the repairs on our modified Ford short bed. It's ugly work but it has to be done. The LMC floor patches I purchased did not match the original stamping of the bed floor. Unfortunately, this led to some tough decisions about when "good" is "good enough". The end product isn't perfect but it's miles ahead of the rusty floors I cut out. Come hang out with me...
Shorter Than a Short Bed?! Bobbing 4" Off the Back of a DENTSIDE Ford Truck Bed

My custom dentside short bed was finally back together and mostly rust free...so what did I do...CUT IT APART AGAIN! This time I'm taking four inches off the tail of the bed. This will bring the overall length of the bed to 6' 6" and I believe will be more visually appealing. Come hang out with me as I cut the bed apart, fit the panels back together and get the quarter panels all welded up. 00:...

This bed on this F150 is a mess! The old bondo repair is failing badly and it's time to get it fixed. On this week's episode, we dive into how to repair what's already been repaired terribly once. I had to sand most of the bondo out of the bed side, repaint the areas I sanded then finally get the patch panel cut, fit and welded into place. The end result is fantastic!

QA1 Front Suspension INSTALL on DENTSIDE Ford
Hi guys! Great video! Thank you for sharing. The firing order should be cast on the intake manifold.
Excellent comparison. I have the 5 drawer cart and a 44" roller with top chest. Had the latter 2 for 10 years. I have always thought the US General line is the single best value items at HF. Hard to beat the quality at that price.
Prepping to do almost the exact same thing on my 73 F100. Looking forward to watching the process!
Good luck with your project! I hope the upcoming videos will be helpful!
Great information…. Thanks for taking time to respond!!
My cab mounts will be at my place Monday.. not looking forward to doing it or finding other problems but it has to be done.
Good luck! I hope you don’t find any surprises!
@@CodyBuilds thanks but I think there will be a bit hopefully not a lot. I have a 4 post lift so my idea is to lift the cab with that from the top.
Another video, more progress, and a little closer to the end result! Not exactly a "project" since it's my daily driver and maintenance, but I replaced both sway bar end links (one was broken), both sway bar bushings, painted the sway bar while it was out, and the PCV valve on my truck this weekend. Nothing crazy but stuff that needs done at 191k miles. Awesome you got 220v wired up, I'm surprised you didn't do that before all the frame work on this old truck. Glad you have your next project lined up after this one is completed, there's nothing like finding a something on RUclips you enjoy watching then the content dries up. Keep up the great work!
Sounds like good progress on the driver! I’ve got ideas for a number of builds coming up. The International is next in line but it won’t be the only build. I’m gonna try to keep this channel rolling and growing!
Very nice…. Enjoying the build!! If you were able to do again, is there an axle the would prevent you modifying the brake kit…? Referring to you having to drill out to accept larger bolts?
There’s actually a brake kit that matches the axle in my truck, I just ordered the wrong kit. If you follow Wilwood’s measuring instructions, you should be able to find the right kit for your axles. If you can’t find exactly what you need, Wilwood sells all kinds of spacers and backing plates to customize their brakes for your needs. They are also really helpful on the phone if you have questions.
Great job man! Keep on trucking! We need to catch up soon buddy it’s been too long.
I agree, it’s been way too long. Maybe sometime you can give me hand with this old turd since we used to sit in the cab and dream of driving this truck when we were kids!
This is a comment to the viewers; When I tuned in to watch this video it had 18 Views, by the time I’d finish watching it had 85 views and no comments. If you took the time to view the video then help a guy out by leaving a comment at least. Comments help the algorithm and thus the number of views will increase and hopefully the number of subscribers. Even if you have nothing to say at least type “Comment for algorithm “. It really does help. Thanks.
Thanks for the support Cory!
I have the same truck…. My header panel is still good and I don’t have that much rust…. With that being said, would you recommend I cut mine the same way? I plan to weld over stake pockets and weld over the dent fuel filler neck and modify and relocate it to flush mount bed fill
You should be able to cut the bed the same way I did without removing the header panel. I prefer this method because the front body line holds its shape better than if you were to cut in the middle of the panel. Both options work, I just prefer the way I did it. Good luck with your build!
@@CodyBuilds thanks 🙏
Thanks for sharing the jig….and willingness to film it in action!!
Thanks for watching!
What year ford is this?
1975
It's easier to do an entire floor . To replace each piece it very difficult and time-consuming. Ask me how I know . I just did my 67
I did some searching and wasn’t able to find a complete floor for a 73-79. That probably would be the way to go but it’s looking like I’ll be piecing this thing together bit by bit.
Sorry , I thought that I saw somebody was reproducing them I went looking and found that nobody is currently offering one for those years yet. That's a bummer I went that route with the current one I have and it saved me a tremendous amount of time . I wish you luck and I'll be watching to see how it goes for you.
@@og190 no worries! I was hoping you knew where to get one 😂.
Side note is either Amazon or Walmart sells a 5 drawer cart that's identical to the US General in this comparo.........for almost $200 MORE(!)
For the rest of your project it's very worth buying a cheap Amazon hvlp gun and buying qaurts or gallons of paint. So much faster to spray, so much more uniform and consistent.
I agree 100%. The limiting factor at the moment is my air compressor. I should have that resolved shortly. Once I upgrade compressors I’ll be switching away from rattle cans.
Go vote folks b4 this government trys to destroy things like this they want you to drive electric and kil* the gas and oil industry and with out those these old trucks and cars u mise well scrap them.. keep up the good work.
Thanks for watching!
Dang… and I thought my bronco was bad! Good luck bro. I’ll be following to see how this goes for sure.
Thanks for watching! There’s some good progress coming in the next couple weeks!
Looks like a prime candidate for a complete floor. You definitely need to weld braces into what is left to keep the cab from shifting on you too.
I did end up bracing the door structure. The cab was already racked out of square pretty badly. The inner rockers were completely loose from the front of the cab. There wasn’t much left once I started cutting it apart 😂. Thanks for watching!
@CodyBuilds I thought it looked a little wierd in there!
I agree, those poor band-aid attempts at a fix did more harm than good. My understanding is leaving an air pocket in places like they did only made a place for moisture to trap and rust even faster. I found this out the hard way when I had the bed rust fixed on my old truck in high school with patch panels, it rusted worse and faster the second time and I ultimately found a different box for it (mistake, should have put bedsides on my original box, but oh well) It's too bad you couldn't make some sort of rotisserie for the cab, someone smarter than me would have to figure that one out. The Ranger XLT was the "King Ranch/Platinum" of its day, crazy when you consider what even basic trucks have now. My dad's 76 was born a plain-Jane Custom, he basically made it a Ranger XLT when he restored it other than it does not have air conditioning. The good news about the fresh paint in the cab, I don't think it will look out of place. Inside the cab doesn't get scratched or UV faded and usually now matter how bad the outside looks, the inside of the cab usually looks pretty nice. We had a 75 farm truck that was this way, had every panel a different color until repainted (something very close if not the same as your truck). But other than dusty, the inside was nice.
You’ll see in the coming videos but I ended up building a couple fixtures to hold the cab up on the dolly. There wasn’t much floor structure left once I cut the rot out. Yeah this thing was very well optioned for its time. I’m excited to restore the interior to its former glory!
Wow after all you’ve put into this thing I can almost feel the gut bunch myself. Sorry dude but at least you’re plowing forward…that’s the right direction. You’ve got the right attitude, it’s gonna take as long as it takes. No expert here but you might want to think about welding in some temporary braces to Keep what ever you have “square”. Remember the old adage “How do you eat an elephant”? Good luck.
Thanks! It was definitely a bummer but I’ve already made good progress towards improving the structure of the cab. I’m excited for the next couple videos coming up. I did end up bracing the door frame. By the time I got everything cut out there wasn’t a whole lot left. Plus I found the cab was racked out of square even before cutting things apart.
Im still waiting for my 20% or 25% off coupon to snag a series 3 box. I need a 56 inch cuz my 5 drawer cart is not cutting it. I have too many tools that I have acquired and will acquire in the future.
Mentioned in the last one, but that pickup was such a great find. Really nicely equipped and in great shape. Be ginger with the front rotors, they are unobtainium. That paint will clean up really well! The 3195 under the hood is the paint code, Fire Orange. I see another comment the lineset ticket was missing, give the Wisconsin Historical Society a call. They can look those up by VIN and will send you .pdf of it for 20 bucks. As a bonus, if there is a quality control sheet (things outlining touch up and repairs before leaving the factory) or a road test sheet available they will include it. Would love to see those on it!
Thanks for the tip on the Historical Society! We’ll definitely have to get one of those ordered. We figured out pretty quick how difficult it is to get the front rotors. The set on the truck are completely shot. We ended up going with a different rotor, I believe off a Dodge work van, and a 1/4” spacer to get the correct backspacing. Dad wasn’t patient enough for me to film the brake install so unfortunately I can’t show that, but I’ll likely talk about it in a future episode.
Bad ass! What’s the width of your rear end? I have a ‘73, but the rear got replaced with an 8.8.
Thanks! I believe it’s about 65” axle flange to axle flange but I would have to confirm that next week when I can put a tape measure on it.
I did something similar with my 78 crew cab a couple of months ago with a cherry picker and 2x6s screwed together into an H shape.
Nice. It’s an effective way to work alone. Hope your project is going well!
Nicely done, where there's a will, there's a way! This is getting ahead of things, are you going to put the bench seat back?
Yep I’m going back with the factory bench seat and a new cover to start. The interior will look pretty much stock with the exception of Dakota Digital gauges and a custom headliner.
You Sir are a master of building jigs. Check out the HF scaffold. With a little modification and a second set of casters you could make a nice dolly that could be broken down and stored in a small space. I’ve seen them on sale for like $229.
That’s a great idea. I’ll have to look into that for future projects.
Great video. I just added a 27 inch roller to sit next to my 5 drawer cart. I have them in red. I had to pull the cart forward a few inches so the front of them can line up. They look nice sitting next to each other. I got it for $279 before tax on a one day coupon last Sunday. no inside track needed.
So this is about 100-200.00 more than Husky?

Do you know the LxW dimensions of the drawer? I wanna order some foam trays before the box arrives
Which box or cart did you get? I can tell you the dimensions of any of them but the 4-drawer cart. I don’t have that one anymore.
@CodyBuilds silly me I forgot to ask which one. I wanted to ask about the 27 x 22 roll cabinet lol
No worries. The inside of the drawers are 22.25”W x 19.375” deep.
@CodyBuilds that's absolutely perfect, they make the foam trays very close to that size. Have you heard of foam fit tools?
That sounded like a starter Bendix with that clicking. Is that a remote fuel pump? I still have my nail file from my grandfather for such an issue...and I'm 60 years old. Did you disconnect the old fuel tank? Well done saving that Cornbinder. Leave the patina.
Yes it was an electric fuel pump. The farmer that originally owned the truck disconnected the mechanical pump, installed a secondary tank and electric fuel pump. We disconnected the original tanks and installed a remote tank in the bed. That patina ain’t going anywhere! I love the look of this truck.
It's an awesome truck! Good restoration candidate!
After working on this truck for the day I’ve really fallen in love with it. There will definitely be more content with this truck coming in the future. Thanks for watching!
I subscribe simply because you were working on these international trucks, these are great. I just took a year and a 1/2 to revive an international 200 1974. Hopefully gonna sell it in two weeks.We'll see good work guys.
Congrats on getting your International back up and going! While my F150 is my primary project currently, I’ll definitely be featuring both International trucks in the future. This one in particular will be a future build series.
Nice frame hunter green paint
Pops looks right at home in the ol girl
He was absolutely loving it! His grandpa had a similar truck and I think he was taken back to driving that old truck as a teenager.
Very nice work. Just found your channel and subscribed. I like it.
Thanks for the sub, I truly appreciate it!
That is pretty cool for a old truck
Thanks for watching!
I would like to see what you are going to do on this Internation in future programmes. Great to watch.
Thanks for watching! I’ll be doing more with this truck after I make some progress on my current project, my grandpa’s 1975 F150. I love this old International and I’m excited to film more content with it.
I am not a car guy by any means, but i have a soft spot for old mechanical machines in general, so i watched the whole hour and really enjoyed it. Also like the style of this video. No annoying background music blaring non-stop, no fake drama, no influencer marketing trying to sell me some crap. Just some guys wrenching on stuff. Really appreciate this!
Thank you so much for the kind words and thanks for watching!
The International 1110 is a better truck than the Ford pulling it and it's not even running, just a minor set back fo now!!!!!!
You’re not wrong 😂 It does have a 7.3 in it though so technically the best part of that Ford is an International.
Great video!
Thanks for watching!
Pro tip always make sure to remove all the foil from the gallon of oil prior to attempting to pour into any vehicle or reservoir. 😂
37:21 Rubbers always get in the way hahahaha classic
😂 This might be the best advice ever given on RUclips! Hope you are doing well buddy!
I didn’t catch that until I was editing the video 😂
Thanks for the video man… just got the 27in series 3 for 300 I’m just starting off as a tube tech so my tool collection needs to grow and figured this would work… any side attachments videos for the 27in?
Congrats on the new tool box! Unfortunately I haven’t purchased any of the attachments for the boxes yet. If I ever do, I’ll make a video about it. Thanks for watching!
Dad and Grandpa (farmers) had bag phones like that, I don't remember them being in any of the old trucks but in the pickups and tractor cabs. Mom had one for a bit as an insurance agent as well. Kids these days are really missing out lol Enjoyed this video, I haven't looked but there can't be that many RUclips videos on these old IH trucks, might be a nice (sub) niche for your channel. If anything, you could fix the body in the same fashion as the 75 Ford, you could even make it a shortbed, too
I remember way back when my cousin got a bag phone for his truck. I was pretty young but I remember thinking “why would you need to make a call from your car?” Man how times have changed 😂 I’m definitely going to be doing a budget build series with this truck. Not sure how soon I’ll get to it, but I’m already making plans. I’d like to do more DIY fabrication on this one.
Another great video!
Thanks Todd!
Great job on the ignition diagnosis and also on your persistence making old parts work when you discovered you didn’t have the right points. A lot of people give up when that can’t get new parts but it’s amazing how these old vehicles will come to life with a little TLC. Maybe not perfect but still running after all these years.
These old analog vehicles are simple and tough. The nice part is they usually won’t leave you stranded. You might have an issue or two but it’s not like having an electronic component fail and disabling your car.
Thank you for all of this info
Nice review!
I used to work out of a 4 drawer cart man, honestly while my tools still fit in it I loved that thing. Never had any issues, and I got it scratch and dent for like $80 in 2019. It was an insane deal. I hammered the dent out, put it together, and worked out of it til may of this year.
that’s a sick deal. happy that you snagged that but jealous too
