I spent the week getting the 1969 f250 can and bed sitting correctly on the 1990 f250 7.3 idi zf5 frame.

WOW! What a change in the demeanor of those Fallow Deer! They were scared of everyone and everything at their previous owners location. Now they are calm , eating out of your hand and even following you to the hay feeder! WOW!!!
Regular grain will do that to critters. 😏
There's nothing better than watching a Red Poppy Ranch video early on a Sunday evening. Since I think you may skip next Sunday given the date it falls on, allow me to wish the family a Merry Christmas tonight. Blessings to you all.
Do you still have the 3rd deer? Didn't see it in your video.
I also wondered a bit about why the cab/chassis swap when it dawned on me: It's more of a hobby than an absolute necessity.
He loves working on vehicles, and being idle just is not in his nature. Staying in the house and watching TV would drive him bonkers.
I only see 2 Axis Deer 🦌 🦌 where are the rest of them ? Did I miss something? I must have because there was at least 4 deer, I thought 🤔
The Ford swap is really coming along nicely, looking forward to this. Your deer have changed considerably, becoming more docile. Did I miss something though, I only saw the two bucks. Love ya'll and what you're doing 😊
The other one probably will be for Christmas dinner😅
Where are the rest of the deer?
Another nice video....this question (from a definitely not snow person), did you ever think about building a pole barn covering between your home and the barn? Would sure save lots of dig outs and paint jobs on equipment. Blessings.
Snow load would be the biggest factor, covering was the 1st thing I thought about at the intro too.
A nice over head Winch system would be a nice addition to the garage lift that cab right off the frame. Pull the old out and move the new in
I so look forward to your videos each week. You are an amazing family that is being headed up by a guy whom I just believe can do anything. Luv you all. Have a merry Christmas , be well and stay safe.
Awesome work!! The deer are getting more friendly!! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!
What happened to all the goats?
But why don't you prepare the rust and apply the paint before putting it together. spend so much time on something and not do it in the right order and really bothers me. I have put all the episodes and followed almost completely from the beginning. But I have started to flush the last episodes. I guess I lost a bit of interest when you don't use mask when you spray paint and had paint all over your face and especially around the nose and mouth. More and more just starting to think you're stupid.
Been watching for about 7 years,and have watched you do alot of these crazy builds and almost Always I say WHY WHY WHY, and this one a big WHY, but still love watching you,never seen a man with so much knowledge, work ethic always amazed keep them coming and MERRY CHRISTMAS ❤
I mean the swap looks challenging but "some" rust? Quite an understatement.
Merry Christmas to you and enjoy the holidays.
Hey Heath, LOVE what you are doing with 0that Ford... A friend of mine has done a few truck swaps. He sometimes leaves a gap BETWEEN the cab and truck beds. One time as much as 14 inches (about 35 CM). He has used that gap many times for tools (JACKS, Shovels & other OFF road accessories ). Make the SPACE work for ya !
I spent most of my early life in Central PA which is the rust belt. Had a friend that put and 85 F250 body on a 74 highboy that had a 360 HO. I remember he ran a 3” body lift to help fit the chassis. This also allowed to fit 42” tires. That was a really cool rig. I think yours will be as well.
Rather then cut an weld the frame I’d remove the rivets for the rear spring hangers an shackle mounts an slide them forward to line the wheel to wheel-well an just re-drill the mount hole! That’s what we used to do with rangers to change wheel base then just cut the frame that sicks out the back! Also if you have some of the old firewall from the 90s cab it sometimes is easier to mold the two together then panel it all back in! Good luck hope you see this befor cutting the frame I’ll be waiting to see in the next videos much love an respect from Washington
Heath...What happened to the other Deer,and the two females?? AWESOME truck build ,keep it up!
awesome video,, did you think about body mount to raise the cab n bed up,, 3 inch body mount as 4x4 would use to raise the chassis with lift kit,, you wont need to remove as much firewall that way,, much easier overall,, ty jim
2nd channel opportunitie, red poppy rebuilds to keep all truck builds etc in one place....look i love this channel but I'm not a big fan of truck builds sorry.
I know what you mean.....but it's winter at altitude in Idaho. What do you want to see? Continuous snow plowing videos? It's not like there's a lot he can do outdoors. He was waiting for winter to do this project for this reason.
Would it not been easier to repower the 69 with the 90 drivetrain?
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!! Thanks Guys...
Heath, Merry Christmas from my family to yours. Have enjoyed hard work and videos this past year, really looking forward to the new year and more videos. Stay safe, from the guy who sent you the table for your chop saw.
Love your videos they are great, just noticed that the water spout dosen't have a lock. working with cows I have noticed that if giving the chance they will somehow open a spout like that, not sure about deer.
It locks closed
I SEE YOU STILL NOT PUT WIRE ON TOP OF DEER HOUSE THY WILL JUMP ON IT AND THEN JUMP OUT YOUR PEN M8
Should of put a body lift on the cab save alot of cutting on firewall
Can’t wait to see how the truck turns out mate ,well done from outback Western Australia
That truck is gonna look absolutely cool as hell! I can’t wait to hear that beautiful 7.3 clack! Wanna wish you and everyone else that Red Poppy Ranch a very merry Christmas and a happy new year😊
Heath you are amazing and I know you will be able to do the interior to your liking. Keep with your awesome work.
My husband noticed that there is quite a bit of rust in the center cab mounts. He mentioned that the rust needs to be dealt with, or they will start to collapse, possibly in a few months of use. Otherwise, the transformation looks good!😊
Thank you, Heath and Cedar, for another year of great videos. Hope you guys have the Merriest Christmas ever and a blessed new year.
Where were the rest of the deer?
When will you collect the doe’s up into your deer pen?
HEY! Hello Red Poppy and thumbs UP!!
What happened to the other deer? I thought there was 5-6 pf them?
Back to truck stuff…… disappointing !
Looks like the deer are doing well . Glad it has worked out well with them . I hope it keeps getting better by the summer .
your time is way to valuable to work on that rusted out junk
Yep, I knew you would calm and get those deer to trust you!👏🏻👏🏻. Talking to them when you are around also calm all animals👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I know this is content but just buy a good dependable plow truck
-Builds a big garage- leaves cars outside.
If this is REALLY going to be a Christmas project, you need to have a bit more red to accent the green cab color (no blood please!). Merry Christmas!!
The secret to rebuilding the firewall is to find the right size/shape wheel barrow.
Or he could do one thing properly, the first time.
@@chrisallen2005 why?
It’ll be sold so that he can buy two more project trucks within three months.
@@WildAcresFarms True. He was babbling about a future dream build while he was hacking these trucks up.
I have a... Not very used... 4 post Challenger lift 18,000 lb... with all the add on jacks and stuff... goes for over 25k.... sell for about.. 9k?
You are a genius taking that vehicle apart. Just love watching you work! Happy Holidays to you and the family from Virginia.
Loving it! Wishing I still had the health to do these kinds of things myself. So, re-living my own youth, vicariously via Red Poppy Ranch!
Interesting pets you have. They eat from your hand, and look nice. But other than that I am not sure what you gain from having them.
MEAT !!!!!
@@fatbaldguy7166 Somehow I doubt thats going to happen.
MERRY CHRISTMAS 🎄🎁
AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR 🎆
May God’s grace and mercy and His wonderful blessings be with you all at RED POPPY RANCH.
Are you sure you didn’t miss your calling to be a mechanical engineer for a big automotive manufacturing company? Your rearranging and changes for a truck most people would have gotten rid of ages ago are intriguing. You need to be teaching at an adult education center and educating others. I know that for you it is of great satisfaction to accomplish such an achievement. Bravo
he is teaching all of us lol
Yes! @ChallengerLifts definitely needs to sponsor you a 2-post lift! Looking good already! Our Dad had a 68 Ford, same green color. Ah the memories! Merry Christmas Y'all!!!
Another great video. At some point you will need an intervention from friends and family surrounding your projects, but until then keep up the energy and creative ideas. Love it!

🎄Merry Christmas🎄to all of you. Wishing you each a happy healthy time filled with family and friends, and reflecting upon the ✨️Reason for the Season✨️which is the birth of our Lord and Savior👑.
If this had been a GM product, the cab would have bolted right on. It's a wonderful thing you approach any challenge with great anticipation and the ability to make things work . I love a garage-built project and this is a very good one! Anxious to watch this one unfold and get put to work. Thanks for having your neighbor, Maple Mountain Ranch, in your videos. I watch your channel and now their's with our disabled son. Both are interesting, informative, inspiring and entertaining. BTW, we live in Chandler, AZ, not far from your old place. We moved from western Nebraska to Arizona 39 years ago escape snow...
Don’t make much sense to me…?
I think you would enjoy the RUclips videos of Captain Kleeman and Kleeman. He's making one truck out of two junkers right now. Right up your alley!
Heath, Cedar and family, I have been watching since you posted the very first video from what is now Red Poppy Ranch. Thanks for another year of great content!!!! I hope you have a Very Merry Christmas and the best and brightest new year!!!!
I would have removed the whole firewall, and Transferred the firewall from the original 1990 truck.
I just did my Body Swap 1964 Chevy onto my 97 4x4 Yukon n I used the Yukon firewall n half of the floor pan n I made it fit nice 😂 N You Can Do it
MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!! Stay safe. God bless and protect.
Instead of doing what you were saying about the bed/cab, How about putting an extra 100- 200 gallons gas tank where the gap would be, and/or a tool box. Would really improve the resale value.
Big Job on the Ford but the best cars made in the world. Wishing you all a very Happy Christmas as you celebrate in the snow Im melting in the Australian heat, Sending much love xxx
Heath I know you like to do things on the conservative side(financially) but wouldn't an automotive lift make your swapping body parts and chassis easier and quicker?
14:04; am having flashback to Matt, Brandon (musclerod shop) & the Cummins Cuda...
Heath needs a two post lift. Heath needs a two post lift. Heath needs a two post lift. Heath needs a two post lift. Heath needs a two post lift. Heath needs a two post lift. Heath needs a two post lift. Heath needs a two post lift.
Merry Christmas to Red Poppy Ranch. I hope Santa brings you everything you desire and may sugar plums dance in your dreams. God bless.
You’re talking about cutting the frame? I would stretch the cab. The hardest part would be the little trim pieces. Make a line that basically splits your fuel filler opening in half and then cut up to just below the fuel filler opening and cut around, front or back whichever you’re most comfortable with. I would go forward, keeping the fuel filler in the back corner of the cab. Then continue the cut on that line up and over and down the other side go inside and cut the floorboard and then move it back. You can attach a few rigid wires or metal rods to help hold it in place as you cut bend and position metal pieces to fit in and match the curves of the truck. Once he had everything welded in, grind it, all smooth. Use a little body filler to deal with any minor issues and you’re ready for paint, but that’s just me and my experience with restoring cars. If you want a little more cab room, take a small section out of your bed and shorten it as much as you may want to. You said you had about 3 inches of space so if you take about 3 inches off the bed, you’d have 6 inches more for your cab which would make an amazing difference in regards to comfort.
Merry Christmas and happy new year to all at Red Poppy Ranch. It's always a joy to watch your adventures. You have had a busy year. With lots of love from your friend in ohio 😊
Heath just an idea why not put a big I beam in your shed across where you are now so that any future projects you can lift with block and tackle , things up be much easer and safer
A big beam in that ceiling would have been nice to hang that cab from :) I am excited about this project I am sure it will be nice, wish you the very best making it fit, it will work a buddy of mine put a 454 in a s10 truck so anything can happen lol The deer have really gotten used to you that was nice to see Merry Christmas to you and your family !!
Saw a 2 post lift on You Tube for about $5500. Nice Christmas present for Ol Dad ladies mmm
Wishing y'all a very Merry Christmas!
Same as others, I thought there were four bucks? 🦌
Put a lift in your garage
When ya start rebuilding that firewall go to the hardware store and look at wheelbarrows. I saw an old hot rodder use this and they make an excellent starting point if you can find the right one. Great channel, look forward to your videos each week.
Do fallow deer drop their antlers like white tails and elk? they seem to be getting much more friendly.
wow, way more rust on that cab than Iexpected. Hope your project is still worthwhile to you. I still dont understand the purpose of the swap??
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all of you at Red Poppy Ranch. We are excited to see what the new year brings everyone.
Merry Christmas to the Red Poppy Ranch family, Andy W up in eastern Canada..
F250????? What does that mean? I'm 65 please don't tell me I should know what it all means😢😮
Merry Christmas to all at Red Poppy Ranch. Also wishes for a happy and healthy New Year. 🎄🎄
Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year to you and your family. 🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄
Wishing you and you family a wonderful merry Christmas and a happy new year!!
2 post lift. Yup. Would also open up many other possibilities. But a simple overhead hoist would have done fine for this purpose. 😁
I watch this guy www.youtube.com/@AndrewCamarata He set up a great block and tackle on rollers that crisscross his ceiling with metal beams. I don't remember the episode where he installed it. He works on a lot of Big equipt but he fixes siksteers all the time. I learned a lot from him. 👍
A man with a plan. Love it. And Merry Christmas from a very warm South Africa
I just looked up your cousins channel and notice it has been 2 years since they posted. I hope all is well with them and they just decided to stop posting to youtube.
Oh, yes. Merry Christmas to all of you and have a happy New Year. God Bless All Of You. :)
Heck yeah, love you're storage wall. Love wildlife, an can't wait to see more.
If you get a lift for your shop, I would get a two poster. I would get one of them for posters that you can move around in your shop in different positions.
That lean-to beside the shed is for... what? It can be a covered area for projects, or other wheeled vehicles, surely.
Cali only grew 55 feet in the past 6 months. Merry Christmas RPR family.
I have a 79' F-250 an would love to put a Dodge dually Cummins under it.
MERRY CHRISTMAS RED POPPY RANCH FAMILY FROM DALMENY, SASKATCHEWAN, CANADA.
Why aren't you transporting the bales on a boat bottom sled? Are you shooting for new hips by age 50?
You would have been better off finding running gear for that year truck because the year frame you are using are much weaker steal I have seen them bend into a 90 degree angle when hitting something
Wondering if the deer antlers could inadvertently take out the yard hydrant?….that would be a mess
Level??? Remember that you are putting weight on the front, really soon.
Looks like the cab is back to fare looking at front tire to close to the front of fender & u could just make ur own mounts & give he air ride lol but if ur fab it you can make anything work lol
All that building that you do. You should make your wife a little shelter for her jeep.
Just move the rear axle forward and trim the end of the frame I wouldn’t recommend cutting frame in half
