Rusted Out F250 Repairs
Turn on subtitles/CC's if you'd like explanations on what I'm doing throughout the video.
I've finally gotten around to fixing some of the rust on my 1983 F250. I had no idea how bad the floors were when I got the truck, then I found out that they were made mostly of fiberglass, which had started to deteriorate over time. I purchased all the patch panels from LMC truck, it came to something like $230 which was well worth it. I still had to make up a few pieces here and there. If you're wondering what I'll do about the rust on the rest of the truck, I only planned on patching the cab. The fenders and bed are the worst of it (after the floors), but I'd much rather just buy some used rust-fre...

At the time, the engine had been sitting for a while and was almost seized, but it fired up and ran full throttle doing donuts in the middl...

    I love your videos. I have been in your shoes. Check out the Harbor Freight pneumatic hole puncher/flanger. It's about $50. It will change your life for these sheet metal repair jobs. Oversize your patch. Flange the edges. Punch holes. Use self-tapping screws to hold it all tight together. Plug weld. Primer, seam sealer. It's faster and cleaner. Trying to weld up 1/4" gaps is no fun. Well done, guy. 💪🏻

    Those were truly awful bikes. I had that exact model AND a CL350. The top ends seep oil within 20K miles as did MANY air-cooled bikes of the era. To their credit, they did not blow up. It was a different time. I don't know why anybody would WANT a bike of that era in this modern age.
