My Father in Law bought a 1957 F100 today…we were flipping around on RUclips because I was trying to give him ideas of things he could do to upgrade his new truck and we came across your video. Turns out THIS is the exact truck he bought today. This was the second video we watched, I didn’t believe him but sure enough, same exact truck! Same beer bottle on the radiator and all. He’s excited about his beautiful new truck! Thank you for the work you’ve done!
Hi Doug. Can you email me your contact info or your Father in Laws contact info at killerbeezcustoms@gmail.com
Thanks
Awesome meeting you yesterday Kevin at the Backyard Nationals
Great meeting you and your wife also! Love your truck! Keep up the great work on it and shaping it into what you want it to be and more importantly keep driving it! Reach out anytime if there is anything we could help with!
721 subscribers now ! LOL Greetings from western Montana! Beautiful truck by the way. I have a 59 Ford F100 and ill be 70 next month! Enjoy life as it is too short ! Oh, I do like the blackout and I'll check my buddy's wrecking yard for a hood emblem !
Thanks for watchin! Can't believe we're over 700 subscribers now. We're having a great time. I received a hood ornament from a subscriber. Thanks for offering to look around for me. Appreciate it.
Looks awesome. These 57s trucks are not seen very often in Texas.
Great looking build, am a fan of this body style.. thanks for sharing your ride
Thanks for watchin!
Thanks heaps for your post, nice truck
You're welcome. Thanks for watchin!
Love the truck, awesome
It was a great truck. Thanks for watchin!
Nice truck, glad to see a Y-Block in it. :-)
Thanks! Told myself it would stick around until it fails me..... so far, it's still chugging down the road.....
Kick ass truck!
Beautiful truck! My favorite body style for sure. Love the black out of chrome. I have never liked chrome. Stance is perfect. Well done.
Thanks a lot! Appreciate you watchin the video and your comment.
Your truck looks great ! My 59 f 100 had flow thru fenders too too ! Got mine set up gasser style for now.
I think those flow thru fenders were a popular "option" back then! 😂🤣 Thanks for watchin!
Coolest trucks for sure. The single headlamp 57 looks much better than the dual lamp years. I had a black one in high school back in 1981 my sophomore year. It was a stepside with rust holes everywhere. I worked part time at an auto parts store then and built a Chrysler 383 with a 4 speed for the truck. That thing would smoke the tires down stomping the gas in 2nd gear. Could not get that thing to hook up at all. Threw bags of sand and concrete in the bed and it didn’t help. I miss that truck! Thanks for posting.
Thanks for watchin and thanks for sharing your story. We love old car/truck stories!
Man, giving me hope for ours. Good job.
Thanks! It does take a little inspiration every now and then. Thats whats we're trying to do here at Hyndzyte. Inspire y'all and each other. Thanks for watchin!
Fellow Missourian here🙋♂️
What part of MO?
@@HyndzyteEngineering southeast. In Perryville. Bout n hr south of stl and bout 35 min north of Cape girardeau
that truck is crazy cool! it sits absolutely perfect.
Thanks! I appreciate the comment. To me its a good combination. Its sits low enough to look good but yet is usable and drivable without being a problem. Keep an eye on the channel. There's more to come from me and the other clowns at Hyndzyte....
Sick bro ! I am currently daily driving a 59 f100 4x4. Gramps bought it in 60. Original to a T. Love it tho. Your ride is sick ! I might have a lead on a hood badge for ya to! Got a cl here in Idaho that has one for sale. Sweet truck man, love the y block!
Thanks! Your daily sounds bad ass! Especially the fact that its been in your family its entire life! Keep it rollin man! If you come across the hood badge you can email me at killerbeezcustoms@gmail.com
Include some pics of your truck!! Thanks for watchin!!
Thanks for committing to keeping the language clean! I'm subscribing as the "clean talking" automotive channel is a dying breed as well! Awesome looking truck! I'm going to be starting on a 65 f250 fleedside in the Spring. Current project is a 79 dentside (midnight maroon) that's coming along nicely. This is the first video of your channel that I've seen, so I'll be checking out more as soon as I finish this one! (not even half way through at this point - lol)
We're gonna do our best. We're just an ordinary bunch of guys so I'm sure we'll slip up at times. Just apologizing in advance.... hope you like the videos. We've got a lot going on. More to come.....
Hey it's Buddy I'll find one one day I look at your truck and it keeps me going so don't sell it. Thanks for getting back with me means a lot
Hey Buddy! I think I may put the For Sale sign in it while we're in Louisville. If it doesn't sell, I'll drive it back home and hold on to it until you up your budget amount.
The rustic looks so clean
Especially when Kevin puts the "shine juice" on it. Thanks for watching!!!
What do the hubcaps do- totally useless & makes the wheels look lame
Just ran across your vid ... dig your direction.
Sold it earlier this year. Building a 70 F-100 now.
Just found your channel and subscribed. I’ve got a 70 F100 390/3spd I was welding in new floors today I’ve got a 460/C6 going in. My plan is similar to yours from an aesthetic standpoint. Enjoying your videos now I’m binge watching 👍🏻
Thanks Joseph. We have a good time making videos. If we can ever help if you get in a jam on your project, let us know. Between all of us we have just about all aspects of car building covered. We're just missing an interior guy..... Thanks again!
Oh and if u happen to live local to the Kansas City MO area, come join us for our Front Yard Nationals on Oct 9th!
@@HyndzyteEngineering unfortunately…..on many fronts….I live in Mass
@@HyndzyteEngineering thanks! I may take you up on that
LOve it man. My first truck was a yellow 58 F100 and 223 6cyl 3 spd with overdrive.
Thanks! I've enjoyed working on it and really enjoy driving it. I bet yellow looked good!
Back in the 50,s and 60,S THEY MADE A PIPE COME OUT THE FRONT ON THE DRIIVES SIDE AND GO DOWN THEN BACK ,JUST PLUG THE FRONT ON THE OTHER SIDE. THERE WERE FIVE OF US BOYS AND WE ALL HAD 56 CAR AT ONE TIME OR ANOTHER.TWO OR THEE HAD THAT PIPE ?
Hi, I'm a new suscriber from Old Mexico..Nice truck!..I own a 68'F250 390 myself!
Thanks for subscribing! I love the 67 thru 72 models. I actually have a 67 shortbed half ton that you'll be seeing a video on at some point in the future. It's a project like lots of my stuff..... thanks for the comment on the 57. Its not a truck that I was initially looking for. I was actually looking for an old International truck when I found it. I'm glad I didn't pass it up. It's been a lot of work but I love driving it. Stay tuned for more videos. Take care!
@@HyndzyteEngineering My pleasure....looking forward to enjoy myself watching 😎 cool vídeos !
Hey it's Buddy again I drove an hour and a half this time one way bad on Facebook said little rust truck look like they've been sitting I like for about 40 years was not happy. Two more to go have you got your other video up yet thank you
Sorry to hear that. There's a good one out there waiting for you to find it. The next update video on my 57 is getting put together now. Stay tuned.
Linda sua F100.
Perfeita...
Parabéns

Muito obrigado!

Thanks man... Love the Lady... How did you do the front drop?
4" drop axle by Sid's and pulled some springs on each side. He recommended I only do 3". I didn't listen.... had some horrible bump steer. Had to work that out with heat. Drives great now.
I’m starting on a 1958 f-100 short bed 3 Speed and it was my grandpa’s truck I might need some advise on some thing if you guys are willing to help me.. love the 57 in the video and the story and what your trying to document doing videos keep it up
I love to hear about projects starting ESPECIALLY when it's something that's been in the family! We would be happy to help in any way that we can. If you need anything, reach out to us. Thanks for watching!
@@HyndzyteEngineering I definitely will thank you I’m going to continue to watch your videos and share them with others
Kevin, I just spotted your channel tonite! I liked what you did with the dropped axle! I have a 55 F100 which has everything stock except the motor. I would love to do what you did with the front and rear axles! Did you make a video on how you did it! Thank you it was a great video!
Thanks and thanks for watchin! Unfortunately we didn't have the channels when I did the front and rear axle work and no videos were done. I can try to answer any questions you have. Email me at killerbeezcustoms@gmail.com if you need any info. Thanks again!
Are your rear wheels banded to be wider or is it just the fatter tires giving that illusion?
It's just the fatter tires giving that illusion! By the way, I enjoy your channel and really like the work you do! Keep it up!
@@HyndzyteEngineering There's going to be a 57 F100 intro soon :)
I'm building a 57 ford truck now got it narrowed 4 link with a nova front clip .
Sounds cool Greg. I'd like to see it. Especially the way the front clip was stubbed in. Can you send some pics to my email? killerbeezcustoms@gmail.com
Thanks!
Got a 57 too just gotta wait until 1 more year until I get my license
When u get that license, drive it! Thanks for watchin!
What did u use to conver that rear frame notch. By d way man I love ur ride. I myself own a 57 f100...I love these trucks. Thx in advance for ur input...take care
I temporarily used the bottom of an old bedliner to cover the hole in the bed where I had to make room for the c-notch. Temporarily.... Ha! It's been like that for 7 months now.....🤣😂🤣😂 I'm glad I didn't do anything more permanent because this week I'm moving the gas tank from inside the cab to under the bed so I've got more mods to do on the bed floor. Love these 57's. Keep an eye out for a video coming soon that talks about our upcoming "Subscribers Rides" videos. I'd like to see your 57 in one of them. Thanks for watching!
@@HyndzyteEngineering for sure ill post it up. Thx for replying so quick. Take care
Nice truck bro. I have a 60 f100 that I am currently putting back together. I am actually in the Wichita area. I have new door seals, but I have no idea how to install them. Any help would be appreciated.
David I wish I had done video of the process to replace them when I did it. I'll do a quick video on it without actually doing it in the next day or so. Keep an eye out for it.
Posting the video of the process now.
Hey it's Buddy again it's been a while I looked at a couple more terrible almost gave up got one more to look at this weekend coming up I'll let you know
Hey Buddy, quit messing around with all those others and buy mine!
@@HyndzyteEngineering yeah it looks that way don't it. Then what are you going to do then couple more thanks get back with me
Damming dude, nice unique look. Good job bro. #FORDS RULE
Thanks Man! Appreciate it!
Kev! Please tell me what year the Dodge 1500 rims came from. I just tried looking some up and they said the bolt pattern was 5x4.5. Of course, we need 5x5.5. Thanks for any help. I'm just looking for correct size spare for the set of Vision Shift 148s I just put on my 59 F-100.
Half ton Dodge around 2000 should be 5x5.5. Thanks for watchin!
Ok, thanks. Going to the junk yard!!!
Tipton MO probably not too far from you… I have a 59 I’m wanting to lower. What was it you adjusted on the steering after installing the 4” drop axle?
Yep. Tipton isn't too far. We "massaged" the arm that comes off the left knuckle so that the rod coming off the steering gear box was more level to the ground. I've been seriously thinking about going with an aftermarket front independent suspension. I might be open to selling everything if you're not in a big hurry.
I’m in somewhat of a hurry to get it dropped. Ultimately I’d like to do the mustang II front end and air bags. I was only thinking if I can drop it cheap for now I would do it and save for what I really want.
Enjoyed your frist. Vedio! See Wyndal. old house. . Good luck, you’ll get Lotes guys watching!
Thanks Linda! Yep Wyndell's old house back there. Love where I live!
Can you share more about Killmat and if it made a difference?
The price on Amazon was the best for anything similar. The installation of it was very simple and I think it made a huge difference. This thing was a rattling, tin can of a mess..... After I did it, it was a very noticeable difference. Even my wife noticed and that's saying something....
Nice truck looks great 👍🛻
Thanks. It'll always be a work in progress.
cool truck. is it for sale ?
Thank you!! I've actually been thinking about selling it lately but it would be one of those "I don't really care if it sells" prices. Let me know if you'd be interested. You can always email me at killerbeezcustoms@gmail.com
Thanks!
Can you give me the info on the master cylinder/disc brakes? I want to do the exact on my ‘60.
It's been a while but I bought the frt kit and rear axle kit from Speedway. The master cylinder was bought off of ebay. I don't have any of the info anymore. Sorry. That's the best I can do. Thanks for watchin!
Love your truck man can you please tell me what suspension you have on the front and rear again I didn't catch it in a video thank you
Thanks Buddy. Its a 4" Sids drop axle in the front. I also pulled 2 leaf springs on each side. On the rear I did a 5" C-notch on the frame and flipped the axle to the top of the leaf springs. Thanks for watchin the video!
Naturalist!! Hard to find. B watchin 😎😎
Thanks for watchin!
@@HyndzyteEngineeringGot a 72 F100 Big Block Love of my life!!
@@jefffoiles5530Check out some of our newer videos. I'm building a 70 F100 shortbed now.
instructions for going alternator and power steering?
The truck does not have power steering. I'll talk to Cam about doing a short video on the alternator since he was the one who did the generator to alternator swap and all the rewiring on the truck. Check back in a week or 2. Thanks!
Good to meet you Kevin, I've got a decade on you and all I can say is if you happen to get wiser......share your secret! I stumbled upon your page as I searched for '57 F-100's cause I'm hoping to get one soon, however I want to drop a Coyote 5.0 2nd generation and a mustang IRS posi. rearend. Good luck and I'll start trying to catch up.
Thanks for watching! I put the truck up for sale for 30 days and it didn't sell. Guess that means it was meant to stay with me. Next step is daily driver comfort. I'm looking into independent front suspension set ups. Good luck with your upcoming project. If I can help in any way, let me know! Thanks again!
Nice truck, Kevin ! Can you plz tell me how you did the boltless front bumper ? I’m having rust issues with the bolt holes of my chrome bumper. Welding the holes and rechrome it would solve that problem.. thanks
Thanks Tom. I welded up all the factory holes then welded some bolts on the back of it and bolted it directly to the frame rails. I had to cut off about 3 inches from each frame rail for the bumper to tuck up tight to the body. Hope this helps!
@@HyndzyteEngineering yes I did the frame cut, too. Sounds pretty easy to do, thanks Kevin
Curious. What year suburban did you get that middle bench from. I have a '58. Just looking for options
I believe it was from a mid 90's model. Let me know if I can help in any other way. Thanks for watching!
@@HyndzyteEngineering thanks for help. I'll give that a shot
Love your ride. What type of disc brake set up did you go with?Also does it have power steering?
Thanks Wes! I went with the Speedway kit for the brake hardware. Bought the master cylinder and brake booster off of ebay. No power steering on this hog.... Gotta muscle it out. It's actually not too bad tho.
@@HyndzyteEngineering thanks for the info....mine steers Farley easy also ....but it need good tires and some getting used to....old rides should be safe from thieves not many can drive 3 on the tree lol
Hey it's Buddy I struck out again I went and looked at a 1959 today drove hour and 15 minutes it was a rust bucket I ain't gave up though
Yep! Don't give up! There's one out there for you somewhere.
thats Honda FL400R had 3 pairs over the years 77 FL250 85 FL350R an 89/90 FL400R the fun factor 12+ off the scale
Justin has an 89. Agreed, they are a blast!!! Thanks for watching...
Nice truck bro I have a 57 also what year suburban did you get the seat out of?
Thanks Michael. It was a mid 90's.
7 years ago, a friend asked me if I wanted a old truck to work on? Went and look at it. 4 flat tires, no battery, park in front of the garage that collapsed...ask the lady there what she wanted for it? She said i gave it away 10 years ago, but the guy never picked it because it had 4 flat tires,
She said it's free! But you got to get it out of here in 30 min because iam is going shopping. My buddy took off and went to get the car carrier, and a battery, I pulled the sparks plugs out, when he showed up, threw a battery in it, put it in reverse, hit the key, and back it out.then place it in granny low, then walk it up on the ramps into the trailer.....1960 F100 4x4... 292 ..100% Original state side 8' bed ...had it running 3 days latter, 2 years latter came across another one buried in black berry briar, canablized it on the spot, for $100.00 off of this ranch.I have a spare tail gate in pristean condition that has large FORD stamp letters on it 1960 short bed if you know of anybody interested?
Thats awesome Dale! We love to hear old cars and trucks stories! Where are you located if someone was interested in the tailgate?
Hello, I have a 57 f100 big window that was a 6 cylinder car and I am having a hard time finding a v8 grille emblem. They seem to be different from the 56 Ford trucks to the 57 Ford trucks
Yes I believe they are. 57 is a one off year, with many differences from the 56 and 58. If I come across a V8 grille emblem, I'll let you know. Thanks for watching!
@@HyndzyteEngineering thank you very much sir. Where are you located?
@@dominicnewell6358 We are just SE of the Kansas City MO area.
@@HyndzyteEngineering I have a hot rod shop in healdton Oklahoma, Newell’s Customs. I appreciate the work done on your truck, looks great
@@dominicnewell6358 Thank you. I appreciate that. It's been a labor of love. It's just fun to drive.
What is that front bumper off of? Great looking truck 👍
Thank you. It's a factory style front bumper for a 57 thru 60 F Series. I bought it at LMC Truck and shaved it up a little to get rid of the bolt holes and make it fit tighter to the body. Theres more to come on the truck and our other projects at Hyndzyte so subscribe if you haven't already.
Sids? Where are they located?
www.droppedaxles.com
I think he's from Oklahoma but I might be wrong on that.
Did you ever sell that truck?
Yes, it sold earlier this year. Thanks for watchin!
Yo kevin, I got to the part where you started to show your truck and decided to pause it and go ahead and shoot you a message anyways I stumbled across this video because this truck is for sale near me. I'm messaging you because I've always been on the side line when it comes to old cars and that life style (my Dad R. I. P & my bother all about it, I was too busy ruining my life) I'd like to take you up on what you said.. GET YOU THERE! Look I apologize I was doing this on the fly and I got distracted and I got to get back to my responsibilities real quick while I'm go ahead and send this and I'm going to message you back all right actually I hope to hear from you soon You said you responded to every comment and you sounded real so I'll talk to you soon bud. Thanks in advance later!
No I guess my original question was this car's going for 5700 it's a California rush free truck The body's completely straight everything's there except the front bumper has a 272. Actually If you don't mind looking up the post it's on craigslist it's in rosemead California thanks and I apologize at the moment I don't have free time so I'm doing this while I should be working
@@Jeff-yk4ok I tried to find the ad on Craigslist but couldn't find it. I'd be happy to take a look and give you my opinion on it if that's what your lookin for. Let me know. Send me the link to the ad in an email at killerbeezcustoms@gmail.com
Thanks for watchin!
What rear end/ratio are you running?
Just switched from a 3:92 to a 3:08. Thanks for watchin. Subscribe if you haven't already. There's more to come on this one. Thanks!
I had a 59 f1 33's tucked under it 347 stroker
I love the 59's too but my favorite is the 57 with the one off grille and headlight configuration. It's a nice day to go get another 59. Thanks for checkin out my video!
After that year ford trucks wer bland looking
Of the 57-60, the 57 is my favorite because of the grill and hood. I'm a fan of the 67-72. I have a short bed 67. I'm becoming a fan of the 73-79. Currently looking for an ext cab short bed 2wd 73-79.
