My grandfather had a 79 f250 ranger with a 460 in it. It caught fire every time you drove it. You just pulled over, put it out, cooled her down, hit the key and down the road road you went. Love the old fords.
No sooner did the idea pop in my head when Luke blurted out... This would make a great Tough Truck. Oh Hell Yeah ! The trucks already got a name and the driver should be called the "Turd Herder"
@@tonyjessicashrader2078 oh yah, first trip we found out the fuel pump was dead, second trip the truck we were going to use to bring it home had the gearbox blow up, and then the third trip myself and my uncle literally almost died of heat stroke, BUT we actually got it home that time. (after hours of scrounging around on a saturday 60 miles from home, trying to desperately find a tire shop that was OPEN and had 15s that werent 150$)

The gm alternator on the Ford right there is the problem!:D That and the fuel leaking all over the place. They needed the blocks in the springs because they swapped in the Lincoln 460 and added the plow. That transfercase is a full time 4wd NP203. The NP203 has the range box in front of the case. So either someone converted the hubs to lock out style or they swapped the whole front axle assembly out for one from a part time 4x4 D44. Feel free to send the 300 my way! They are my favorite engine and I've got a small hoard of the 240/300's.
As soon as I saw the body rocking I said "track bar bushings". Been there done that. And by the way Luke, that truck is beautiful. You should put it in your driveway.
Watching these videos of you guys doing this with these old vehicles makes me less fearless to dig in and do my own projects. Enjoyed it so much I bought a project car.
I have a 73 that was in a barn fire. The guy was in the barn went it started . He started the truck and left snow plow down and drove through it. Melted orange rotating light and all cab lights and took all the paint off the front and sides windshield all heat cracked .
The most honest and legitimate quote ever made...... Kevin- "This is a nightmare, it's still better than a chevy"!!!! That is the most honest statement you are ever going to hear on a youtube video! That truck may be a "burnt turd" but I would gladly push that rusty thing uphill in a blizzard before being caught dead in a bow tie pile of junk!!!!!!
50:39 The local guy I took my 1979 F259 with a 460 to in order to get it running (after sitting for 11 years) said he put a 1969 timing chain in it so it made better fuel mileage and more power. I can say, as a kid fresh outta high school, that truck made plenty of power for me to have plenty of fun. He also plugged the emissions stuff on the engine, as it was a California model and had a Catalytic converter on it (apparently the first year those were put on the old Ford truck, but ONLY for the California model in 1979 from what I’ve heard). As it say for over a decade, I just cut the catalytic converters and muffler off, right behind the cab, and ran it like that. Outrageously loud and fun for an 18 year old. Still have the ol’ girl, just need the money to rebuild the engine a couple other minor things.
When you asked Thunderhead if that was non-flammable brake cleaner I spit a mouthful of Diet Coke across the room laughing. That was an epic moment and thank you for keeping it in!
25:10 That was so perfect, comedy gold... I love that you can see the realisation immediately hit Luke before you even finish your sentence! You guys are a great duo... Lol
OMG.... I literal spit my coffee out at this 47:01 I'm going to clip that 10 seconds of the video and watch it over and over again. You two guys together are so funny.
My dad's 78 had automatics hubs. When it was 20 below and snowing like crazy he would pull over and I would automatically (reluctantly) get out and go lock the hubs. If you didn't grease them every now and then you had to keep a pair of channel locks in the glove compartment to turn them. His had a 400 in it and it was one of this plow trucks. My favorite truck to this day.
Wonder if the engine in the bed was the original that caught fire, that’s where the name came from. And that truck just has a bad case of catching fire.
That inline 6 probably is the original engine, they said that the 460 in it now is a car engine and not a truck one. The 300 i6 was the base option on this model truck. It probably blew up, so they put a 460 in.
It's been my experience the except for the timing chain, you can't wear a 460 out unless you run it out of oil. I rebuilt a 460 with 190,000 miles on it and it only had 3 thousandth lip at the top of the cylinders. And just to let you know I've been a mechanic for 50 years.
Had my 350 engine in my 64 C10 catch fire twice . It also took a bit to start it but when it ran it sounded ok but would run hot and some times flood and stall then when you try and start it hot it would catch fire . The engine was put in the truck by previous owner . After a couple fires I went over the engine and found the distributor off 1 tooth . After fixing that problem it ran like a champ .
Another great video. Keep up the good work guys! Planning on trying to get my dad's old 64 GTO that I inherited running again. Last time it ran was 10 or more years ago. Last I knew it smoked about as bad as a van full of chain smokers. Should be fine.
Thank you so much my friend husband just opened a shop and i watching your videos and seen that tool box and said thats a perfect gift for him thank you love the videos stay blessed
I was thinking when you were talking about the starter, that you just needed to somehow figure out how to put a starter on like the one from the tow truck and call it good. Lol
Hell yeah! We need to save more of these 70's trucks. I have a near mint Ford blue 79 F250 with a built 460 in it. I'll keep it for the next 30 or years and make sure it goes to a good home before I die.
my grandpa's 01 f350 super duty work truck has around 390000 miles on it, has been in 2 floods completely submerged, and has been lit on fire once and still runs fine for a work truck, and pulls his 7-ton gooseneck trailer at least 2 times every week.
Yes starters and gears need to match tooth count because of spacing between the ridge and valley of the tooth pattern. The main reason there are so many is for diferent gear reductions to turn the motor easier depending on what it is, compression ratio over square under square targeted cranking amps and size of the starter that you can fit are a few things to be considered.
Coupler like collar in the transfer case.. mostly reminds me of my grandpa's 79 Chevy k10 scottsdale he literally fixed it by putting a thick black rubber bungee strap on the transfer case shifter shaft and wrapped the strap around it 3 times and attached it to the bottom of the dash.. probably not how I myself would fix it but it did work.
The bad!!!!Don't rely on tire pressure when under a vehicle. That's gambling with your life. The good!!!! Your video are absolutely awesome I always look forward to them, Especially the 1970 1979 trucks
I have 02 4 door Ford truck, about 250 thousand miles. Bought new by oldest son. Runs like new. Not oil burner. Inside, out side great shape. Owned Chevy trucks, rust buckets . 84 year old driver.
"one guys having a seizure, the other guys having a stroke. Ford" after working on fords recently i agree *edit : quick note - the early 460s (70-74) had nylon cam gear teeth that people swapped out to prevent them to break. they started out at like 10:1 compression ratio but then slowly dropped over the years and got smaller carbs and more emissions tubing becuz smog. check the heads on that motor behind the exhaust manifold for D0VE/D3VE/D1VE stamps
@@bubbadw60 ok, that puts it at around 1973, a 8.5:1 compression ratio, and she's squeezing out 212hp and 340ftlb (*factory*). So basically a boat anchor that makes noise 👍 Hope this helps at least a little
That's exactly what Ford did on the Essex V6 in the UK, used in Capris, Zephyrs, Zodiacs, Consuls and Granadas, as well as Transits, if you were mad enough or an emergency service. The nylon cam gears were a nightmare as, once they got to a certain age, the heat cycles would make them go hard and brittle and they'd lose the teeth of them, which would often ruin the engine as pistons would meet valves and all sorts of carnage would occur. Steel gears were a bit noisier, but didn't break, and you can now get replacement cam gears that are made to be quiet and last a long time. Back then, however, material technology wasn't up to the job...
I’m going to start locking up my car parts now

He definitely brings comedy into your videos.
The gm alternator on the Ford right there is the problem!:D That and the fuel leaking all over the place. They needed the blocks in the springs because they swapped in the Lincoln 460 and added the plow.

Feel free to send the 300 my way! They are my favorite engine and I've got a small hoard of the 240/300's.
I figured the 300 was the original and that heavier 460 swap with the plow was a spring killer for sure.
Jealous of your big six flock.
Nah it’s the ford motor attached to the gym starter that’s the problem
Holy shit this was so fun to watch! Luke really brought a lot of comedy into this episode, props to him and Kevin, for this amazingly fun episode!
Watching this just made me miss my granddad's 79 F150. I had so many memories in that thing and I was so upset when I had to sell it
Where are you located Mikey?
Southern Pennsylvania currently but I used to live outside of Richmond Virginia
Dad had a 79 f150 long bed. Sky blue. Remember my brother backed his car into it. Still ran great though.

That's a cool looking old truck with that big chrome bumper and everything. Glad to see you guys get it running.
The action on the radius arm bushing on the driver's side when you first moved it was epic. You could basically measure the play from space
That was not a radius arm bushing ..it was a steering link pivot

"one guys having a seizure, the other guys having a stroke. Ford"

*edit : quick note - the early 460s (70-74) had nylon cam gear teeth that people swapped out to prevent them to break. they started out at like 10:1 compression ratio but then slowly dropped over the years and got smaller carbs and more emissions tubing becuz smog. check the heads on that motor behind the exhaust manifold for D0VE/D3VE/D1VE stamps
The truck looked like it had a stroke, droopy left headlight!
They're D3VE heads. Sadly the engine tag was damaged and I couldnt get much info off it. Betting it's a maximum smogger machine.
@@bubbadw60 ok, that puts it at around 1973, a 8.5:1 compression ratio, and she's squeezing out 212hp and 340ftlb (*factory*). So basically a boat anchor that makes noise 👍
Hope this helps at least a little
@@chasebh89 that's about what I was estimating it at. The d4 tag on the carb leads me to believe the engine is from a 74-76 Lincoln or Thunderbird.
