You did a great job on that truck, RK! Paint and body work are outstanding, and I'll bet Mike's wiring is a work of art! Bed and upholstery are cherry! Thanks for taking us along!

[@805ROADKING]

Thanks alot Mark!!☻

[@steveaw5895]

Road King sounds like a proud Papa.
As he should, good job to all who worked on it.

Great to see the old Ford back on the road. The bed floor looks great

[@805ROADKING]

Thanks alot Mike!!☻

[@ScottHiland]

This put a smile on my face. That truck's looking and sounding great. Everyone needs friends like Mike and the Dirtbike fam. When Mike's got some time we'd like to see more stuff on his channel!

[@805ROADKING]

Thanks Scott!! You're right about good friends, those guys weren't joy riding they were trouble shooting the Carb!!☻

[@foxholewilly]

BRAVO! Awesome journey and an awesome result. Kudos to you, too, for giving Mike the honor of the first run. Reminds me of Paul Jr. giving Vinny the first run on the Firebike. Thank you, both, for giving us a ride. My new nickname for Mike is "Mr. Wires".

[@805ROADKING]

Thanks Willy!! Yeah Mike deserved the first ride, without him it would still be sitting in the Driveway!!☻

[@mattthescrapwhisperer]

That old Ferd is the real deal. One helluva job on the resto R.K.!

She is looking SWEET RK. to say what she looked like all that hat time ago when you started the project , and now look at her , a real head turner well done to the RK crew for getting her up and running.

[@805ROADKING]

Thank you Phil!! Yeah She has definitely come a long way!!☻

[@805ROADKING]

Thanks Bud!!☻

[@wyattoneable]

After so many months of work it all comes down to the "shake down". Great work on this one! As you say, there is more work to do but I'm betting we will see this truck in car shows and being driven to swap meets very soon.

[@805ROADKING]

Thanks alot Wyatt!! It's definitely gonna be driven!!☻

[@MrGoosePit]

Holy cow. I absolutely love it! Congratulations. Awesome truck!!!

[@805ROADKING]

Thanks alot Vic!!☻

[@ihrescue]

This is amazing after all this time. It looks great. My first thought was, there was a time when that size truck was all you needed. Now they are beasts but there really is no more hauling space. Nice job RoadKing et, al. You should be happy with that shakedown. Cheers.

[@805ROADKING]

Thanks alot Mike!!☻

[@thomasadrian9854]

Classic ild Ford pickup done right- no 22’s or lowered or a chevy 350 crammed up nder the hood… well done RK!! (and your assistants)

[@foxholewilly]

Agreed! She's beautifully done.

Thanks Tom!!☻

Congratulations!!
It all turned out so beautifully. I love the bed, it is gorgeous. And the body work and paint... amazing. The interior as well.
I'm happy for you!

[@805ROADKING]

Thank you Tim!!☻

[@doublel7337]

Nice to see the truck going for a drive. It is an eye catcher, the color looks amazing and the short bed really adds a lot. I'm sure there are problems pop up from time to time after you start driving it, but all in all I am sure you will have it where you will be enjoying it for many years to come. Great job RK !

Good job Mike and Road King. Next thing you should do id put a crate coyote or LS motor in it the it'll run as good as it looks. lol

Why would he want a Chrysler engine or a Chevy nothing wrong with a old ford engine

A straight six would be nice! I've got a 223, out of my 60' F100, on an engine stand in my garage. It's getting three Holley 1904's on a custom intake and header. I also made a beautiful bracket assembly for mounting the ps, alt, and ac. Can't wait to finish it, someday.

[@upsidedowndog1256]

Fantastic! Glad you got a drive in it by Thanksgiving! Smoking the tires is what my NJ friends would have done too. Scratching second gear seemed to be a thing with them also. Old girls like yours should be exempt from all that. Looks real nice, RK! Details now.
