HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 23 окт 2022
- It took a few years longer to finish than we thought, but me, my two brothers, and my dad finished his 1940 barnfind farm pickup. We finally made this truck back into what it should be and made my dad super happy as well. The project was somewhat more challenging than it should have been, but despite the challenges we managed to finish the truck and made it into a very nice driver. Watch for this truck touring the roads of Texas with a dog and camper trailer in-tow.

I love that truck. You did a great job, keeping the original look, yet updating it, making it a pleasure to drive. It’s nice to be able to drive with the modern vehicles, keeping up with traffic and even more importantly, being able to stop quickly when needed. I hope you get a ton of enjoyment out of that beauty!
Great truck... love the blue
Thanks you. Washington blue is a great vintage color
@@dissrepair we just finished a 40 truck a few months ago it’s a hot rod satin black
And I am working on the 32 Ford truck myself
@@sknk1fat1 awesome. That's one of my favorites too
Great video!!
Great story!
Love the hood latch and it just looks so clean!! Well done!
Very nicely done resto with smart/modern upgrades for reliablity & safety - - especially if you're gonna use, tow, and travel cross-country. Still a Ford in a Ford ... and "driveable" !
Good looking truck!
Thanks 😊
Gorgeous truck. Nice to see a Ford in a Ford.
We agree!
Beaty
Great video!!
Thank you for watching
Beautiful truck !
Very kewl back story & super neat truck
Thank you! Long time in the making
@dissrepair this story hits home! I’ve just inherited a 1945 ford pickup that is mid restoration.
My father and I used to tinker with it back when I was in mechanic school. I might need some insight. He just passed and I’m a little lost for direction.
Lost interest when I saw lazy choice for engine... flathead power only way to go should have used 50 mercury flatmotor
To think now we have to drive around in 90 percent plastic cars. Well they feel like plastic. Crap
I bid $12,000. Do I win?
😂 i wish that was all we had in it!!
The memories with his dad are worth more than that. Im old guy and i still miss my own dad. Make all the memory's you can
