This is the exact set up I plan to put in my 70' Ford cab n chassis. Great video

She's a beauty. Good choice in powerplants for the sound and get up -n -go.

You shift nicely. That was nice to see for once. I drove a Louisville with a 6-71, 10 speed. it got good smiles per mile

The coolest build I’ve seen, awesome job. 👍🏻

Sounds great.:)

Put super singles on the rear and it would make a good camper/horse trailer puller

Hi i live in morpeth and if you still plan to be involved with edison id like to chat about a project.

The perfect daily driver right there 👌🏼💪🏻😅 I'm at the exhaust "breakdown", so IDK what you're running for a trans/trans-es(depending on if it's just one, or multiple transmissions lol).... the only thing I'd personally want to do differently, is some custom suspension linkage and airbag suspension, you know, a 4-Link in the rear on bags along with a C-Notched frame, and if there's room for the solid axle in front to get low, another 4-Link, otherwise, a custom set of arms and bags in front as well....that would take this gorgeous truck to 100.... for me personally, then I'd have the glorious Detroit sound, _and_ a comfy ride.... while being able to air her out when parked or cruising to get "that look" 👌🏼 But then, I'd most likely have to ditch the saddle tanks, and go with a polished, between the rails tank, so to not break up the line when she's low lol. As I'm typing this, it reverted the paused video to the thumbnail, and now I see you already _have_ bags on the rear axle....but by chance, are you bagged in the front as well, or just with a slight static drop? (I'm not erasing what I initially typed, still what I'd personally want to do if your gorgeous truck was mine, and some lower profile tires 😅)

Cool. You didn't use a cummins like everybody else does.

Hello, while watching your very very interesting video I asked myself the question: why didn't he continue to sand the concrete with a 7 inch and 4 inch grinder connected to a vacuum cleaner? I also have to redo the floor of my rental apartment, I have a light yellow concrete with a very damaged and very dirty epoxy coating. I was very interested in following your advice, thank you very much

❤❤ that's perfect ❤❤

I have seen those volvo power steering pumps used in a ton of late 60s early 70s ford trucks. It seems to be the go to pump for people doing conversions or restorations

I am not usually a fan of patina and mortifications from original, but you did it right. What a fantastic job you did! Great videos too

Beautiful! 🤩😎👍

New subscriber. Truck is beautiful and Jimmy is impressive. What are you planning for side mirrors ... turn signals ? If i may,.. i would suggest simple round mirrors, 6" - 8" diameter on a 3/4" pipe with flattened ends. If my memory serves, that was the rig on my Dad's 49 REO flatdeck. Also, for turn signal, .. the old swing out or up signal on the drivers side would look great maybe with flashers for backup and safety.

that was amazing! the quality of detail, thanks Bruce tucson

should be very proud of yourself , I know I sure am , terrific job , keep it forever , I would

Thanks for the reply / my plan on 48 ford f6 was a 12 valve Cummings but radiator and after cooler are so wide but thats part of a build is figuring things out / we come out to Colorado springs 2/3 times a year visiting daughter and grand kids would like to see the truck if possible

How did you get a radiator stuffed in that narrow front nose / are you located in Colorado

À. Çĺass. ACT! Keep ON..TRUCKIN

My dad and I used to rebuild the 53 series engines for boats in the 90s. My first Chris Craft was repowered with 2 of them that came out of military surplus generators. And lasted almost 20 years will little to know issues. This model is simple and really bulletproof.

Nice job

You said you cut 5 “ out of front axle i know just cutting is easy so how you put back together i know you welded it but how did u get it straight and true i have a 48 ford f6 im working on

Hello, interesting well-made video, I love your truck. Here in Germany we don't have trucks like that, that's a shame. I build RC model trucks and am always looking for suggestions and role models. I'm very interested in the braking system in your truck, because it's in the RC model There are different sound modules for engine horn and brakes. However, there are no sound modules for smaller diesel engines with compressed air brakes and horns. Therefore, for some of my RC truck projects that are based on large pick-up trucks that are built as semi tracktors, it is important to know which ones There are brakes that don't make any compressed air noise. I know that there are electric trailer brakes in America, that doesn't exist here in Germany, we have hydraulic brakes for a total weight of up to 3 tons and everything beyond that is braked exclusively with compressed air. Kind regards, and I'm curious about the brake connections to your trailer

I hope Greta doesn't see this.

You're answering a bunch of my questions as I'm doing a 46 International KB 10 with a 453 I would be extremely grateful if you could help me I'm lost Pioneer air brake system I'm using a 78 International cabover chassis that's all are break but it was gutted the air brake master system you have looks to be all hydraulic brake setup is that correct

Sounds great those old 2 strokes love to run

Absolutely fantastic! I’m a big truck guy. Your build is amazing! Excellent engineering 😎

Just awesome! What more can somebody say? 👍👍👍

That is one fantastic build, Sir! You did an excellent job! I have a question for you, where did you get your custom instrument gauges from/at? Thanks.

That’s a find custom truck heavy truck brother

Roughly how much power are you cranking out of that Detroit

Absolutely beautiful. Truly a top level professional build

Definitely super cool😊

Can you do one of theses on your hot rod? That too looks very interesting….

Nice job man looks and sounds great

I wanted to do the same to a 1950,s white mustang.replaced gas engine with a 195 ci Cummings. Engine, ran out of money after a while sold. Miss that project. 😢

Thank you for sharing this beautiful truck.

Man, what an amazing build! Perfect choice for the drivetrain, in my eyes! Those 4-53T's are no slouch, and the 10 speed Ranger will let you get the best out of it. I'd love to see it hooked up to a nice drop deck trailer for hauling equipment and whatnot. Sure is nice to have the amenities of A/C, power steering, A.O.H. brakes, suspension control, etc. Looking forward to more of this little gem!😄👍👍👍

Outstanding effort. Amazing results. One question: Why did you choose to not paint or powder coat the frame?

Awesome build! Love the Detroit. What airbags did you use in the front?

I love it

As pretty as it is, you’re driving a hearing damage inflictor.

Super cool

You did a great job on keeping the old school look GREAT JOB 👍👍👍👍😎😎😎😎

Super cool project

Clearly you deserve High Praise ....You set the level of energy on a project that is a guide for every builder. I have seen many projects in my life, some better than others, but your project, the attention to detail, simply is outstanding.....In my mind you have achieved the highest rating to a project like this one and will remain the perfect example of engineering and design....God Bless you Fella,and thank you...

My dream is to do the same thing you did to create a daily driver, but my dream truck is a B-model MACK. You did a great job. .

" Bad Ass"Best project i have ever seen.....Do you have an engineering degree?....You do now...God bless you fella Thank you

Outstanding video and build! Thanks!
