  • Picked up this 1971 Sport Custom longbed, with a 360 FE engine and a C6 automatic trans. power steering and brakes, untested, dead battery, complete gamble ... Will it run and drive? Did I make a mistake with this purchase?

    Back in the 1980s, I owned a '72 F100 Sport Custom shortbed.
    Previous owner had swapped in a 460, pulled from a '74 Lincoln.

    Back in 85 somebody stole my 71 Ford F100 long bed fleetside,when I was a teenager in highschool,my dad gave me his truck. Had put some money into it : holly 4 barrel carburetor, headers ,white spoked wheels repainted and new tires, was taking mechanic shop class in school. very disappointing when it happened ..hope to replace it some time. Interested in F-250 4wd 70-72☹️🤠

    When you come across an old truck, check the battery drain test to avoid starting problems. Change the oil and filter. Prime the carburetor.

    Bloody beautiful mate , the steering wheel is on the wrong side 😂! All the trim mouldings in place , what a classic beautiful truck , being a 71 those lower rocker cover trim mouldings are from the 67-69 if I am not wrong , I believe someone put those thick pre 70 lower trim mouldings what is absolutely lucky cos they are the best looking ones opposed to the more thin ones that came in the later 70’s Bumpside, got the original hubcaps too , I would’ve put also the 67-69 three spoke with 1/2 steering wheel and horn ! Well done looks beautiful
    All the best from Adelaide South Australia 🇦🇺

      All the missing trim is in the bed of the truck. The last owner removed it for some reason, I will be adding it back in the future. Watch for a future video with his truck in it! Thanks for being here

      With a Ford F-250 of that year, it is most likely a 360 or a 390, depending on the VIN code and the originality of the truck. The 4th digit in the VIN is either a y or an H. The letter Y signifies a 360, while the letter H signifies a 390

    • @rustynutsgarage4099
      @rustynutsgarage4099  2 года назад +1

      Hey there jesse! Great question, the sport custom is simply a trim level package for the Ford F series of those years. While the Ranger and Ranger XLT packages would have been top of the line, the sport custom was an intermediate model between the Custom Cab and the Ranger models.
