  • Our good friend Jason has been working on his 1932 Ford Truck build for a little while and has been making good progress. Jason originally started with a 1932 Ford BB (Big) Truck and has sold off the parts he wasn't keeping, which left him with the cab and frame. Today Matt is going to help with mocking up the engine and trans, channeling the cab over the frame, and starting to mock up the rear of the chassis. First step is placing the freshly rebuilt Pontiac engine into place and roughly placing it where it will live. Matt and Jay then work on cutting up the cab to lower it over the frame. Once the cab is at the right spot they start working on the rear portion of the chassis which will be custom built from box tubing. We hope to do more updates on Jay's truck as he progresses, let us know what you think!!!

    I put a low mileage base 1971 GTO engine into a 65 Chevy C-10 years ago. I was running the stock pickup Muncie 3 speed with a bell housing out of a Buick GS 400. That old truck was a power house. Those Pontiac V-8s are torque monsters which is great for a street machine or a pick up that is going to be used as a truck. Jason'll be able to pull anything he can tie onto with that truck.

      @@IronTrapGarage Yup, I want to see more of this one. And I think the long bed if it's done right will enhance the look. Consider playing with the height of the bed sides -- I'd actually like a low height to make it look even longer to start. Mock up with 1x? 6 foot boards to get it right. Wheels look right too.

    This brings back memories. I had a 34 f, open wheels and engine. A 389also but with 6 strongbergs. Back in 1972, I was 22. Left it sit over winter without antifreeze, only water. Thought I drained all out but cracked the side out of the block after it pushed the casting plugs out of the left side. Back then I bought it all done for 1,200 before I trashed the block.

Really like the use of a Pontiac motor, back in the late 50's early 60's Pontiac motors were used in a lot of hot rods...God Bless!!!

    I like his practical approach to a hot rod truck. A 3.50 to 3.00 rear gears with the poncho torque will give performance and mileage and a bed that will do some light work. Awesome!

    Hope you have a large radiator! They love to overheat.
    I had a 65 GTO, I sold it and then it was wrecked.
    I was 19 when I bought it for $900, I had the engine rebuilt totally for $327.
    I guess that was about 1970 when I bought it, I lived in Broadway, Va.
    That could even be the engine out of it! : )

  • @jeffpitzer8521
    @jeffpitzer8521 3 года назад

    Ditch those clunky motor mounts and fabricate some sleek ones that mount further back on the frame... slots look great.. I have a 32 roadster pickup that uses the same big truck frame rails.. I stretched the wheelbase 12" which pretty much centered the wheels in the 5 1/2' long custom bed but my cab is lengthened for more leg room ...just my 2 cents worth.... looking great so far! Love the "unique" power plant choice.

    Hi guys, sacha here from NZ, when you first lowered the cab and dropped it down back first it was at a hell of a rear rake, and actually looked quite cool, just a thought for a sick look. Check the footage.

  • @ravinloon58
    @ravinloon58 3 года назад

    Love the truck... and like the real practical use of the longer bed. I would go for a stake bed design... maximise the flat floor area with strong frame around the outside and use removable wood sides. Maybe have a couple of Toolboxes under the bed at the front (or toolbox one side and gas tank on the other.

  • @keithhaycraft3765
    @keithhaycraft3765 3 года назад

    I think the location of the rear axle was at the 25 minute mark looks better balanced than when it was closer to the cabin. Possibly even further back so it is centered under the rear tray.

    Yeah I'm digging Jason truck and has the right idea to use the back of the truck to use it to carry his other toys or camping what not..
    I've been wanting to build a truck or panel/wagon of some sort a utility vehicle multiy purpose.
    I built a 1979 step side and a 1972 GMC SUBURBAN, the suburban took me the longest to build because just about everything had to be redone on it got way in over my head. I was determine to get it built.
    I end up giving it to my nephew on the condition he can't sell it!! He still has it to this day 15 year's later or more. It's just sitting with gas at almost $4 some thing I don't blame him one of the heaviest vehicles GENERAL MOTORS PLANT put out other than the 1958 chevy.

What's that VW item hanging from the ceiling? I was a Porsche Audi VW mechanic back in the 70's. Matt didn't you once have interest in VWs or Porsches? Sure would be interesting for me to hear about that. Love your adventures. Takes me back to the 60s & early 70s working on hot rods.

    Loving this. So cool to be a viewer and see more or less instant change into a hot rod profile. I think it would have just a little more attitude if the front dropped one more inch. As an old time street racer, my new '68 440 GTX was beaten by a '65 GTO. Just sayin...

  • @JohnSmith-pi4ju
    @JohnSmith-pi4ju 3 года назад

    With a 6' bed you could afford to move the cab back a couple of inches so that Jason has more leg room. That would also permit you to steal a little more clearance between engine and firewall. The proportions will look fine cab with a 6' bed.
