LOOK AT THE TRUCK I JUST MADE A DEAL ON. WHAT IS THE SIZE OF THE MOTOR. MAN THAT'S BIG!!!! I WILL SEND OUT A PRIZE IF YOU GUESS THE CASH PRICE I PAID FOR THIS TRUCK.
Ah, the old ford SD (super duty) engine. They came in 401, 477 and 534. The 477 version made 253 hp with 490 ft pounds of torque at 1200 rpm. Reliable engines. They are built more like a heavy diesel engine. The motor alone weights 1200 pounds. They redline around 3200 rpm. I know this is late to the party but if the original carb is giving you trouble an edelbrock 1405 runs them just fine. I have a 534 in a 1963. It's a thirsty beast but about as reliable as they come.

@@anonymousinc6330 I’m not familiar with that one. Here is a bit more on the SD series if you’re interested. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Super_Duty_engine
@@BD-xz6te It has been awhile so I did some re-checking. Apparently the 514 is a crate variant of the 385-series (370/429/460), not the SD like I was thinking. My mistake, must have confused the 514 with the 534.
Neat old truck, cool to have air brakes. Itd be cooler if you could leave it on propane and get you an exchange hose and big tank at the off grid farm! Propane equals no carb trouble!Id say 675!
The 475 version of the 477 Super Duty V-8 engine was originally introduced in mid-1972 for the Louisville L-880 series to compete with Chevrolet's ME65 and GMC's ME6500 with the 427 V-8 and the JM80/JM7500 with the GMC 478 V-6 and International Harvester's Fleetstar F-2010 with the VS-478 V-8. Then, in 1974, the same engine appeared in the new F-880, which was to compete with the Chevrolet CE65 and GMC CE6500 with the 427 V-8. In mid-1977, the L-880 and F-880 were redesignated as the L-800 and F-800, while the 475 SD continued to exist for these two (and in the C-800) through 1979, the same year the new 370 and 429 V-8s were released.
$475 few issues I can see with using that truck is the air brakes and needing a cdl. If you decide to swap the cab off your dump truck you will probably want to figure out what you have to do to swap the vin and gvw stuff. Also if you pull a trailer you have to stay under 26k including your trailer weight and truck gvw if I'm not mistaken. I recently made the sad decision to pull the dump bed off my 76 chevy c65 with 22k gvw and move it to a 93 retired uhaul c60 topkick to get my gvw down to 16k so I could still legally pull my trailer and machine without being over weight and under cdl limit. That truck could definitely be made into something or make for a good parts truck but hope you didn't pay much for it with it being a cdl truck as it drops the value significantly. Hope all is well!
Air brakes in and of themselves are an endorsement that can be added to any license. CDL requirements are more hinged on GVWR / GCWR (for combination vehicles). If the vehicle grosses less than 26,001 lbs and tows less than 10,001 lbs, no CDL is required. Class B is single vehicle, class A is combination vehicle. Air brake operation is simple, there is a section on this in any CDL manual, but they do not require a CDL by themselves.
Was the Louisville Line supposed to replace the heavier end of the F Series? Looking at the history, I notice overlap among Ford's commercial-fleet truck lines.
$501.00, likely not a 477 from the super duty family of engines, more than possible it was a 475 c.i. from the 391 family, the hydraboost almost never was used with the super duty family. The heavy wall propane tanks would be a perfect barb-q project.
From the look of the intake manifold and valve covers, it doesn't appear to be a FT (391 family) engine. It looks more like a 534 Super Duty engine, of which the 477 is a little brother. When I was a kid we had a '66 F750 with a 391, It looked almost exactly like the FE series of car and light truck engines. In fact, many parts were interchangeable between FE and FT engines. The FT's had stronger crankshafts and lower compression.
@@billyneeley9642 Dear Mr. Newly, I grew up around the old Ford Iron too, we had about all of the Super Duty sizes, 401,477, 534, and the F series and C series, probably the N series all had chrome badges proclaiming SUPER DUTY,in the front and often sides of the cab or hood. Massive exhaust manifold and at least 3iinch pipe after the flanges. Usually there was a belt driven aircompressor, and the engine just was so big overall, the intake had coolant in it,but it was cooler than the regular block temperature, separate thermostat. Around 1975 another engine turned up in the gasoline truck offering at 475 cu,in. but it was not in the SD group. I didn't really like driving any of them, they always seemed underpowered compared to other gassersat the time, I got to ride along with a Canadian delivering lumber in the hills of Pennsylvania that had a GMC V12 gas, what a racket and what a ride. Got to drive GMC V6s, 401 and 478 magnums, torque monsters. The 427gm truck motor was one of my favorites, called a tall block, they were best all around in my opinion of the gassers, but I never got to try the 501International I-6 or Continental 602cu.in. 6. Dinosaur talk.
@@Colt-tf6xf The 475 was a derated version of the 477. Most parts interchange. The 475 was usually found in the F series, the 477 in the L's. C's had either.
I don’t know what you paid but I would have gave 1, 500 , I doubt ya gave much less than that but probably more if anything.. Hell of a truck right there 🤙
CDL requirements are based off of the vehicle's GVWR, not necessarily having air brakes. This truck would only require a CDL if its GVWR exceeds 26,000 pounds. Single vehicle exceeding 26,000 pounds GVWR requires class B. Towing a trailer that exceeds 10,000 pounds requires class A. Air brakes are a simple endorsement that can be added to most any driver's license, regardless of commercial status. And they are fairly simple to operate, you just have to know air pressure readings and where they should be. It's also a good idea to learn how to maintain slack adjusters, and an older truck like this will likely have S-cam setup, which can "cam over". Quick and dirty, systems should maintain 90-120 when running, should not leak down when not running, low air warning below 60 pounds, and if spring brake equipped, engages at 20-40. Trailers manufactured before 1975 were not spring brake equipped, I am not sure about trucks, though I assume they were, as this is the parking brake. Personally, I would leave it running propane, it will last much longer.
$1975.00. I'd bet there is 175xxx miles on the truck. Could have been a propane delivery truck back in the day.My auction did VERY well. Shockingly well actually.
I have two ford dump trucks f880 and one that is diesel and the other one has gasoline engine 4barrel 477 6speed with 550 rear-end axles and steel dump beds ? I'm interested in selling the trucks as a bundle to help with my family house for repairs both I believe are 1973 477 gasoline and diesel fuel. James
$2500??? How well does it run? That's the first time I've seen a truck of that size, equipped with a V8 from the 401/477/534 engine family. All of the ones I've seen from that generation were equipped with either a 330, 361, or 391 V8s. I see that it has air brakes.
1978 was the final year for the 330XD, 361XD and 389XD Y-block V-8s (XD = extra heavy-duty); for '79, they were replaced respectively by the new 385 series V-8s (the 370-2V replaced the 330XD, the 370-4V replaced the 361XD, and finally the 429 replaced the 389XD). The 475 SD continued to exist alongside the new 370 and 429 in some F800s and L800s until late '79.

You will never be able to put it on the road with the hi/lo rear and air brakes and that’s a mandatory CDL in NC. There are a couple exemptions but even those still require an air brake endorsement on your standard license and trust me, once you step up into that bracket, you then fall into the commercial classification no matter what your driving and your looked at in much deeper detail on insurance and when you get pulled over by NC State Patrol, even when your in your regular truck.
