It's too bad so many of your "facts" are wrong.
I have to admit I'm a bit stunned to see the "Durango" in this video. Even more that they mentioned my brother Jim Jr. and I. There were others who helped with building the prototype. George and Katy Goudie made the fiberglass molds for the bed and tailgate, George Price and Bob Moore helped with bondo and paint work. My brother Jim and I worked on all that as well. My father sold the rights to produce them to a company named "National Coach". They made Airport Shuttles at the time and were looking to expand. They did OK, but there were some issues in their production line. They are a collector car now though and worth restoring if you can find one.
Awesome job
You need to get your facts correct. All makers had a heavy half ton in 75. That's when ford started making the F150. Dodge had the 150 also. The Ford uni-body pickups were body on frame.
Okay..
This was written by a millennial that's never seen ANY of these and their Google search let them down...
@@anthonydilligaf823 Yeah I could tell that this was one of those. Some images were total BS.
Thank you for setting the record straight on the Ford unibody trucks being body on frame. I had a 63' model with the 292 CID engine. Torque galore.
You didn’t cover the MACK pickup ?
I worked in a Central Cali Hardware store in the early 90's..I was helping out a farmer take some stuff out to his truck..I blurted out "HOLY SHIT!!...THAT'S A MACK JR.!!!
I would love to have a Plymouth PT-57 Pickup. Gorgeous from my all-time favorite brand.
If the Hudson couldn’t do it no one will conquer the elusive car-truck. That thing was good looking and fast for the tomes.
Tomes are books.
The Chevy bog 10 described was somebody’s personal modifications. They didn’t come that way.
With ya on that 👍
Chevy "bog 10" eh? Are you one of those whose inability with carburetion has caused you to call GM's great QuadraJet the "QuadraBog?" Or were you grasping at the Big 10 model that Chevy introduced in the '70s?
@@JW...-oj5iw its car jargon for bogging down on a 10 inch. You know you do it all the time

I owned a 1971 Ford F-250 BEAST, with a 4" body lift and 33's. It's how I got my respect on the freeway in Los Angeles in the late 90s. I used to check underneath for Miatas when I parked...
Yeah, boy. I’d like to have a 1937 Plymouth pickup truck too! That truck is just beautiful and classy. Or a ‘38 PT-57 as it’s called.
Agreed! Beautiful truck. My second. Choice would be one of those '68 Ford beasts.
The Chevrolet Apache name didn't come along until 1958. 12V system wasn't optional, it was introduced in 1955, and every Chevrolet was 12V after 1955.
Apache was a nice truck in the looks department, but the Cameo was a stunner, and rare.
the pt 57 is a fine looking old truck. i would love to have one for a daily driver
I drove a 1986 17 years❤
S-10
I had one of these super Cheap Futuras. I took really good care of it…. But it really was trash. I was too young to admit it. My older brother ( That passed away ) would make me feel good by telling me “ No baby bro it’s a good car. That man had a heart of gold. He got me a set of Crager rims wide tires, the whole Shebang to make me feel good. But it was slow and a really hard ride. Wherever you are I’m sure he is in heaven . Thank you bro. I miss you. Way too young to leave me.
Cragar.
@@JW...-oj5iw Thank you I was sure I misspelled it. Wait I did spell it correctly.
@@Taino871... Keep telling yourself that.
My dad had a 1969 Ford 3/4 360 cubic inch engine and he would complain about a knock and the 2 barl carbrater he he had to replace what he called power vavle quite often. He was a master mechanic for over 50 plus years.
That 1938 Plymouth RT-57 at 5:17 is gorgeous, in my book.
Love the Tempo Matador!
I got to see one a Tempo Matadors about 16 years ago at the BugJam in Dade city FL it was very cool to check as I'd never heard of one before let alone seen one
45 Years doing AUTO-BODY... I wouldn't call a Car with a Box a PICKUP TRUCK ??? we don't call a Station Wagon a RARE SUBURBAN !!!
Absolutely! It's a joyride of entertainment and intrigue."
Re: The Ford Durango. My first job in the automotive industry was working for Jim Stephenson although it was a couple years before he and his sons Bill and Jim Jr. created it. Bill is active on Facebook and we still communicate often.
Holy Truck 😂🎉
The pt-7 reminds me of the dodge power wagon. Now that is the original monster truck. 🛻
Ford guy here, but starting at 33:22, GM really got it right with their 55' pickup truck.
"Task Force Series", so I have learned.
Id like to go with the c10 shortbed with the 454,It's a gas guzzler but lots of frame twisting torque.
The Powell Pickups were like the Jeeps of that vintage, the maker went "dumpster diving" for parts. They both used whatever they could get to complete the vehicle.
Hehe, that's bizarre, I'm sat looking right at a Hot Wheels custom VW T2 pickup, with chopped roof and a flat bed at the back! It looks so similar to your thumbnail!
Heck! I commented while the vid was beginning, and then you mentioned the Tempo Matador with it's FWD VW engine set up! I don't think I'd ever heard of it!!!!!!!!!
Love the Studebaker!!!
1968 f250 I wish I could find one.☝️
A lot of inconsistencies but loved the video.
Thank you! Can give me some suggestions? Where the video is inconsistent? I will tell it to my editor and script writer
@@top.intel0 No problem.I lived these times and the history of many of these cool trucks.Still great video.
@@top.intel0everything on the 78 Big 10 is bullshit. Flowmaster wasn't even founded until 1983...5 years after the 78 Big10 was manufactured if math isn't your strong suit like research isn't. Nor were 22 inch bullet aluminum wheels a thing until the 90's and weren't a factory option until well into the 2000's.
i personally cant stand slammed/dropped trucks that scrape the ground and i even more despise the "patina" look i guess that im that gripey old man at 60 y/o
Tempo Matador kind of looks like the Corvair pick up of the early 60s
The El Camino was much better looking than the durango.
Ya think??
I never cared for the Fairmont, but the Durango looks good. Bummer about only an anemic 200ci sixbanger though. A 351 would really perk it up. 😎
@@lancerevell5979 Fairmonts were the 1st Fox Body Fords.
Without question!
@@lancerevell5979 ; Jay Leno said there was a kit for putting three Webers on a Ford 200 inline six.
I had one in a 68' Fairlane 500, you just couldn't kill that motor.
Just sayin', by 79' I think the 351 (all iterationd), was unfortunately no more, or at least on the way out.
A Ford Fairmont based "E Camino" Fighter" is somehow... well, I can understand why they weren't real popular. I guess it filled a niche, but the SS Chevelle looking El Camino you showed @00:51 was outstanding. Not sure if an SS was even offered, but that just looks about as good as an El Camino ever did.
8:15 looks like a Ford small block 289 Hi-Po because of the valve covers.
Amazing how many times they tried to cross a truck and car yet never made it go over.
You must be mistaken. If the Sky Ranger had a 4 litre V6 with 155 HP how did my 2002 Ranger have a 3 litre V6 with 155HP?
I owned a Nissan Hardbody pickup. I had a '68 VW Prerunner "Baja Bug" for the Baja 500 and when the Nissan Hardbody came out with a Baja model, I picked one up... the ONLY one in my city. I thought they would continue making more (I was only 19), so I traded it for a '66 VW Microbus.
... and now I kick myself for not keeping ANY of those vehicles.
The 1939 Studebaker l5 coupe looks an awful lot like the chevy ssr truck
MY HEART IS BEATING .O MY HOT 🔥 🔥 LOVE.
NEED TOO MAKE THEM .SELL GOOD.
Early mid 1980s small diesel pickups, especially the rare 4X4 versions
Dodge Powerwagon How could you miss that monster
Nice
Ford 200 inline six is a damn good engine (had one in a 68' Failane 500), you could put three Webers on it, lol, according to Jay Leno.
A friend of mine knew a junk yard owner in the city. He was informed by the owner a 1962 Ford unibody was for sale with an almost perfect body and low miles. $600 would by it (that was mid-70's). He asked me if I wanted it and I said yes. I borrowed the money and gave it to my friend who was going to the city on business. He came home with the truck and it was better than I thought it would be, with one catch: my friend now wanted the truck. He gave me the money back and kept the truck for himself. He had helped me on many occasions so I let it slide. Well, the first time he went for a long ride it overheated and never ran right again. Someone had put radiator sealer in it and plugged the whole engine up. I wasn't a mechanic and neither was he so it was sold for junk.

"..a breath of fresh air for truck buyers"... by avoiding regulations to reduce emissions and lead everyone else has to breath.
Is this the authors mind set?
Yes I got a 64 elcamino
'64 Chevelles and El Caminos were the best looking cars in the decade. I'd take a '64 over a '65 any day.
Jeep FC 150 FC 170 and Diamond T
Interesting images, but something is off here. Why start something if you won't get it right?
You never mentioned the Cab Over Engine trucks.
Yes I have seen four two in vegas one was owned by imperial palace museum unfortunately it was auctioned off after the museum closed the other Danny from count ING cars the thumb nail vehicle that van truck and two in California
The video doesn’t garner all the commercials in it.
Funny. When you get to the 55 Chevy Apache, you keep showing a 57 truck, while the Apache didn't come out until 58. And when you talk about it's 265 cid V8, you're showing a modern LS engine. Then you talk about the 68 Ford truck with the 390 cid V8 being rare (which is was not), when the 68 Mercury M series truck with the 428 cid V8 was even more rare, and the last year of the Mercury truck line. This type of misleading confusion is peppered widely throughout the entire video. 🤣
You should be sure of what you write, especially during criticism. Whoever put this video together is barely literate or at least subliterate. As for engine selection in late '60s Ford pickups, the 360 was more prevalent than the same block 390. The same block 428 was rarely found in those trucks. The 429 was more likely to be found in the F350s, especially cab/chassis models for commercial use. And I don't even GAF about Fords. I just used them when my employers assigned them. My choice is primarily Chevy from the mid '70s. Some of the most versatile cars and trucks were built in that era.
@@JW...-oj5iw makes sense now. A ford owner. When you say you blew a trannie last night . Has nothing to do with a gear box or a car at the track. More like something under the bleachers. 🧎♂
Delahaye voiture coloniale is a rare pickup truck.
Optional seat belt, only in America.
I do not understand why the Sonoma get is no longer.?😢😮😮
Big 10
That's my nickname
@@peterhendricksen6946 Is that what she said?
Guess none of what you say is believable. Most of the options you say were available on the big 10 like headers and 22 inch wheelswere added afterwards.
There is another rare truck.... the Cybertruck 😂😂😂
😅😂😂🤣
lots of mistakes in this . need to check your facts. pics of motors that you couldnt get in a truck, showing a v8 and talking about a 6-
Thats true but a lot of these pics came from rebuilds, hot rodders , car show. . Its good to take a peak at the engine compartment. I dont think when the narrator is talking about a flat head six fom the 30" s and it has 7.3 chromed BBS I think the average car junkies knows this..
Its obvious the narrator is reading facts, but the pics of them are 50-60-80 - years later.
PEACE

Okay the little Ford Fairmont pick up and you said the Chevelle was a smaller car than the Ford ranchero. You're not even a car guy I guess
I was hoping to see some Van-Up in this video
What a disappointment
How to spend a couple years trying to find a Van-Up
I ended up just building my own
Toyota FJ45 ?
Robotic narration
The 1978 Chevy C-10 pick-ups DID NOT come with headers, flowmaster exhaust, lowered suspension, wood bed, or fckn billet wheels....wtf are you thinking...most def not subscribing
Yea mate , they’re Ute’s not trucks
Oh, there’s no comparison of the El Camino to the Ford Durango. The El Camino was way better looking than the Ford Durango! The Ford Durango might be rare but I’d still take the El Camino
Compare the years of each together.
Was the El Camino even around in 1979?
@@Johnnycdrums '59 to the mid '80's if I remember correctly. When I was in high school a guy down the road from me had a '59 for sale for something like $500. I tried to get it from him but just didn't have enough cash. I tried to talk him down. I tried to get him to take payments. No luck. One day he called me up and told me he had another guy coming to look at it and if I wanted it I better get the money up. I only had about $300 so away it went. I loved the way that thing looked.
clickbait. vehicle shown on thumbnail is nowhere in video
Tempo Matador
WhT Happened to
You need to up your game a little for documentary's, your facts are a bit off and when you talk about something ...show what your talking about and not something different...i think you need to know a little more about trucks to make an accurate doc. I found many discrepancies in this video.
WhAT HAPPENDED TO DODGE?
What Dodge? 🤣
Talking about an ugly truck 🚚 it probably didn't have any guts to get out of its own way.
Can't stand to watch..
Umm... el caminos were the same size as ranchero's dummy. They NEVER used a compact platform for tbe el camino or the gmc Caballero. Do your homework and next time dont blindy regurgitate wikipedia.
The first El Caminos were Impala based around '59/'60. They paused until '64 when they went to the Chevelle base for plenty of years.
What a bunch of BS!
Facts?
More like stupidity.😂
Man so much misinformation in this. With all the fiction and poor research you should write for hollywood or become a journalist!
Willys, like Bruce Willis. Got it right the first time. Not "Willy's" There is no apostrophe. Man's name was John North Willys.
they need to give that powell truck to the commies and go back to scooters
Do some research - if ford wanted to compete with gm on the durango they would have done it. Also it wasn't till 78 that gm trimmed the el camino down to a newer malibu style. Gmc made a sprint from 71 - 87. I had a 73. They were way lesser mad than theel camino so they are rare. Dodge made a rampage from 81 - 84 with a four banger. Subaru made a brat rancheros were ugly is why ford quit making them and needed a better platform - but they drooped the ball
That ford durango is crazy UGLY lol
