The "Ole Man" abandoned this 1987 Ford F150 years ago. The Ignition Switch Actuator would not allow him to crank from the inside so he let trees grow up around it. Will the years of abandonment cause the truck to stay in its grave? Will this good ole truck crank again? Will be be able to fix the ignition issue? Will this truck start for the first time in years? Will it drive for the first time in years? Can the Rev and the Ole Man bring this Ford back to the road? All these questions answered on this episode of RevStoration.

Hey Rev. Good to see you guys again. In my opinion those years of Ford Trucks were some of the best. I purchased a 1988 F-150 Lariat. It was a great truck. I put over 400,000 miles on it and sold it to a guy that still may be driving it. God Bless and keep the videos coming.
I agree. Old Ford's are amazing trucks. My grandpa had a 79 F100 with a 302. When he sold it the truck had 320,000 miles or so on it and there was no major work done to it.
Now THAT'S a 5.0 ON THE GO...!!!
Thanks guys, y'all made my Sunday with this one 👍🤣
he's like a kid with a new toy....love it
Rev, man I went through a harsh break up with my partner of almost 8 months, watching your videos has always and still continues to always make me smile. Thank you guys so much for the amazing videos and hope to continue to see more content. God bless you n the family man!
That "Dutch Parking Only" sign would be popular in Grand Rapids!
Old Ford's are awesome. My dad had a 1988 Ford F250 and it was a good Ole truck. Dad says out of all the trucks he has owned it went into 4wd the easiest. He sold it to his cousin and he still drives it and uses it as a wood hauler. Great video as usual
That truck definitely has lots of life left in it. Would love to see it cleaned up.
Going to Church and then being able to watch you makes my Sunday. Say hi to the Ole man for me.
I have a 1989 F150 XLT Lariat it has EFI and I have never done any engine work to it I am the 3rd owner and Have 160,000 miles on it and it still runs great starts the first time every time. On mine I did have the same problem with the ignition switch but I was able to wire a relay a relay to the solenoid with a momentary toggle switch under the dash and it starts fine. Mine has the same 5.0 Liter engine. I have hauled more than 1 ton loads with my F150 and it doesn't even compress the overload springs. Mine with 160,000 miles still has plenty of power. I have worked on it before on my RUclips Channel. Never doubted it for a minute that your F150 would be a runner they are one tough truck.
I'm a Chevy man but I like watching the channel y'all put out some good videos
Same for me. I’m a Chevrolet man through and through and always will be. But I like seeing revivals.
That is not a Crew-Cab it is a Super-Cab, a Crew-Cab has a full size back seat and 4 Doors. Love what you and your Ole Man do and how you do it. May God Bless you all, and keep up the great Videos.
I knew that when I said it and did not think fast enough to correct it... thanks for watching.
@@RevStoration I was just picking on you, keep up the great videos and God Bless you!
That 1987 F.l50 is awesome im glad you feeling better it was great to see how happy the oleman was with the glass they gave him. I
.have a good joke for you and the ole man. Why did the coach go to the bank.... to get his quarterback lol hope you use this joke god bless you and the oleman and the family
I know these trucks way too well. Great trucks. From personal experience, I'd suggest ordering new fuel tanks and sending units and get that out of the way. I've replaced a few of them on old F150s and it's well worth it. You also might want to replace the parking brake cable..they are notorious for breaking..
I enjoy watching you and your dad working on old cars and truck my dad was always with me fooling with old cars and i enjoy every day with him he was 92 and still working on cars he would jump right in there and help on anything that i was working and he was 92 when he passed and i miss him so much just being there with me
Hi Dave that my dream truck an my wife just found my one out here in North little Rock Arkansas for two thousands dollars 💸 💵 💲 🤑 💰. It's a 1989 Ford FE F 150 302 power plant.An she's fuel infected. She run & drives. Named her old Blue
Hey, Rev! BEAUTIFUL job! ANOTHER old FORD resurrected from the back yard cemetery! Love seeing these old pieces of American Iron brought back to life no matter the age or manufacturer. Thanks for sharing another great video. God bless.
Glad you enjoyed it.. Thanks Lou
I love anything that runs good and everything works on it and that's the truth can't afford no new one
So many cars and trucks for you both to play with. Lucky you. Thanks for the video 👍
We agree... Thanks Tim.
The Ole Man was looking pretty serious in the opening shot. Nice, simple fix and you have a running, driving truck again! Easy Peasy. Just shows how some vehicles get parked for simple reasons.
So true... I think the Ole Man is happy with the fix and now it may go to a smaller and younger Wheeler Boy!
Those came out with 2 fuel pumps
1 in the tank and 1 under the truck under driver seat
Very cool started 😀 so very cool thanks for your time Rev and oll man ThAT was fun thanks Lee
I’ve caught many a fish on Catawba worms when I was a kid! Thanks for the jolt to the old memory box Rev! Good times!
Jason... we had to get them before the wasp did... but boy the fish loved them..
No such thing as a bad video on this channel!
It's like you have a weed eater and you'll put it up and set for a couple months and you go back and you have to pull it 800 times to get it to start I feel you
Fuel pump should be fine.
Those old Ferds are so loyal
33:04 All of my family is going through the covid mess as we type. Glad you all are doing better.
Praying for yall to recovery quick.
@@RevStoration Thank you.
Like the Ford truck and it's color blue it runs very well keep up the good work
love them old fords!!!great trucks!!!!
That was fun! Even them Dad Jokes!
I also have had trouble with the cruise control module sticking, when you crank it up it hangs wide open , I disconnected it and that took care of that problem.
We removed that and it still stuck by hand... maybe we can replace the spring and make it as good as new... Thanks for watching.
The problem with idle may be the idle air control valve. First you can try taking it off and cleaning with brake clean . If that doesn't work get a Motorcraft replacement. The aftermarket ones from the parts store will not work properly. I have had several of these trucks and have experimented with many different fixes when it comes to the idle on them. Good Luck.
I will give it a try... Thanks again.
Had one just like it 302 engine in it they run good
Great video. My grandpa used to have a truck like that. Good to see it going with out too much work.
Great video glad you posted keep them coming thanks
Thanks, will do!
Glad to see Ya getting Truck up and running and Ole Man was right -- I did Windex that window it was pretty dusty! Was in my Garage Full of Ford parts for the last 30 years. Can't wait to see more Comet GT videos -installing that window and getting her on the Road,Too! Hopefully I can come get that other Comet GT and maybe stop by and see Y'alls in person when I'm in town😊
Sounds good Philip. Thanks again for the window.. He was extremely happy with it. Thanks from the both of us.
Greetings from Scotland Rev & Ol’ man….. That’s a fine looking truck. Once it’s been washed and polished up, and given a little mechanical love & attention, it will give Ol’ Puddin a run for its money.
Nice job fixing the ignition & steering column. Sometimes these footery jobs ( that’s a Scottish word for awkward, slightly complicated requiring nimble finger work )can be worse than the major mechanical repairs.
I hope you show us a before and after Rev, both inside and outside. It would be great to see it suited & booted ready for the future.
As always…great video & thanks
John
It be the neutral safety switch. Hi rev and old man. Good to see you guys at it again. Having fun. My fun is taking care of wife who has been on home hospice for over a year. Been taking care of her 24/7. Really rough. Every spare minute I get I watch you and dad. Bless you both.
Praying for you friend. I know that is a hard job but a needed one.
Enjoyed it. Y'all be good. And I hope the Lord is treating y'all good.
I love this family. God bless them and all who enjoy their content!
Thanks for watching as always.
It would be interesting to see The Old Man get ahold of an 89 F250 2 wheel drive with the 460 and 5 speed stick in it. I had one that I swapped the rear end out of an E250 van into because the one in it was bad and that thing could get out and fly. I had a heavy old over the cab camper with a 3 ft rear overhang for the bathroom on it and that camper was HEAVY. Even with that camper on it I could get 3 gears of squealing tires out of it with ease. My brother had a 97 F150 4x4 with the 5.4L in it that had a performance chip in it that was pretty fast but even with the camper on mine from a dead stop I would outrun him every time up to 75 which was as fast as I was willing to go on the roads around here with that monstrosity of a camper in the box. A couple times I thought I was going to dump it right out of the box of the truck onto the road.
Love that 2 tone blue. We have to have 4x4's here in Iowa. I am also a pastor and I play with auto's on the side including detailing business. Great channel!
Hey Rev, you and your father are a great team! Love see the old Ford roar back to life. That steering column looks to be a bit of a job but it was worth it!
With age comes wisdom. That’s why the ol’ man started driving GM’s later in life.
Truck looks like a good candidate for a cleaning after sorting out the minor issues and she’ll be back on the road
Good lord what a FORD 👍
I got a ole 77 GMC truck that’s been a farm truck all of its life. It’s still on the road completely original 350/350. Original fuel pump/ original carburetor etc. still has the original dealership sticker on the tailgate. Garmany motors Lafayette GA. Damn good ole truck. I bought it in Lafayette were it had been it’s whole life a few months back. I live in cartersville GA
Awesome job... I would like to see you make that ford truck look nice again
HAPPY Sunday REV AND FAMILY
Good Lord, another awesome Ford..! Nice ‘87 F150. Always love to see y’all. Blessings from Jerome & family in California.
Hey Rev, Good Lord, what a Ford! Loved to hear the old girl bark into life after sitting for so long. She was just waiting for some love. Glad to see it wasn't anything too complicated. Love to watch you both on the first drive. Always an adventure. Thanks, and we'll see you next time.
I love this generation of Ford trucks.
Interesting a truck this time I had the same truck before a while back those trucks run pretty good if you take good care of them
Looking forward to watching - I also just pulled a 1987 out from the trenches for 17 years at an auto salvage yard - just ready to hear it start under it's own power! LMC order coming in tomorrow finally. Looking forward to getting some work done!
I like that year of that truck 👍👍
That's a really nice truck ,be nice to see it all squeaky clean again. God Bless you both.
Great video, that old F150 came back around no worries, nice truck. That would be nice to see it cleaned up too!
For sure!
Dang that old F-150 is sweet!! Can't believe it fired so easy! Shoot its time to put it on the road! :)
Hey rev . I'm from millen ga.back in the 90's. Worked for me Hodges and his son Steve. pm'ed cars and trucks and even drove his old blue and white Ford wrecker truck .might even got that one ready for the new car lot.wendle was the mechanic their.yes millen is where I was born and raised.😄😄😄😀😀
We purchased the truck from Chris and Bill Hodges. I served as their Pastor at Millen Baptist for 8 years. Millen, GA must have been a great place to be raised.. Thanks for watching!
Sou fã do seu canal vejo todos seus vídeo 📹 parabéns pra seu pai e vc... do Brasil..
Good job! That looks like a nice old truck, I look forward to seeing more of it!
I really enjoy watching you and the old man bring derelict vehicles back to life regardless of the fact that you prefer Fords 😂 personally I prefer Chevys and GMC trucks but I'm presently working on a 97 Dodge 😱 I think I prefer a Ford 👍 keep up the good work and may God bless you and your family 👍☮️🇺🇲
I had to replace the rod in the column of my truck twice. Hope that fixes yours and it doesn't need a column.
I had missed this one on the Old Man’s 87 F-150 did a great job getting it going. Think you got a runner. Thank you for sharing Rev. Blessings!
That’s my dream truck, I would love to restore it and use it as a daily
The “Old Man” is styling and profiling!
Hello my friend always glad to see you God Bless
Love the old fords had me a few over years most repairs were neutral switches fuel pumps and mass air sensors. If you are selling am interested im an old grease monkey 30 plus years God bless you guys
I have worked on weed eaters in the past and the main problem is you can't let them sit to long with gas in them
Oh what an episode! Good Lord that's a good Ford.❤🐘🇺🇸
David amen on can't afford the new rigs but that is just as well cause the new ones are built with very poor quality and seem to have many problems regardless of make. And repairs are very expensive. I have a 2000 F150 with 4.6 runs great and gets me where I need to go also 05 Chevrolet pickup with 4.3 runs great best part no payments. Love your videos God bless you all
Funny Rev I had a mustang that had same key switch issues. Only difference was that rod was on bottom of the column. I pulled my downwards and fixed a knob to end . After that she was a push button start lol
Nothing wrong with that... Thanks for the new bottle.
If that truck has an OBD ll computer you can bypass it. You may also be able to scan it if it has the connector.
It's an 87, no obd2
Good fun as always! God bless!
Did you hear about the lady that put all those Ford parts in here buggy at Walmart ? Her buggy broke down 20 times before she could get out of the store. Just messing with you! Good job guys keep up the good vid's
Haha... love it...
My papa passed away a few years back and my Mema gave me his old 91 f150 with the straight 6. Looking forward to getting it running again. Probably needs a transmission rebuild tho.
Cool y’all bought it from my hometown!
Enjoy watching y'all I'm from Alabama
Thanks Jeffery...
When I was in the 10th grade I remember riding with my friend in his dad's bran new 88 XLT lariat 351 ,short wheel base , always thought it was the best looking truck then.two tone black an silver
Hi rev cool show we had the single cab version as paddy wagons in Australia
Wow... ride in the back I assume.
My dad had an 88 Bricknose with the 351 and he put 200k miles on it then he sold it to me and I put another 100k miles in it before the transmission stopped shifting into overdrive. I decided to sell it. It was a great trouble free truck.
Disconnecting coil wire can fry the computer. The ignition actuator assembly is in steering column at key lock it is pot metal and breaks . Its a little rack and pinion deal that works rod to ignition switch at bottom of column
How y'all doing buddy's great I hope good luck with truck watch out for critters
Great demonstration in the parts replacement. Every one of these is the win even if they don't run or never get road Worthy. You get to hang out fixing with your dad . So this one's a bonus it runs and drives. Who says American brands ain't with diddly? What is that 35 year old truck and sitting for I think you said two decades and a little bit of finesse and Coaxing you're driving it down the road. Of course the old Ford might have been made in Canada. Thanks for the video
Had a new '87 much like that one at work. That was a very nice truck. This one is a fixer.
I love me some ford f150s
It's the rod that goes to the switch to the key they break cause they are made from pot Mattel ,my 87 did the same thing it wouldn't start the switch was good so. I made a lope out of a pice of heavy wire that sat flat on wheel column with a ell shaped on the end bent to fit in the switch for starting and off
That's just what older gentleman wear
Think about it guys if the only way to kill the motor is to pull the coil wire then key switch always on till you take off the battery cable but you still need to pull coil wire are it still run off of the alternator and i am a 1982 ford man and 1976 chevy man but ill drive any thing that runs so dont have to walk
Excellent video Rev :) & Ole Man :) also get some 91 octane gas with fuel injection cleaner fuel tank and for Brake pedal lube up plunger piston in cab with grease plus gas pedal wire plus on motor too grease have one of 2 men push pedal to floor grease up engine also on linkeage in motor and plus pedal wire too! Also spring helps to but don't want to tight one or get gas stuck just feel free! Yes Rev need keep that truck in great shape to for parts Hauler or anything and linkeage fix in Steering wheel common in all Ford , GM , Dodge , Toyota, Mazda and Nissan plus Datsun trucks , vans , cars plus any from key ignition switch models in 1974 to present years just lots use that all Rev and Ole Man! My old 1978 GMC 25 3/4 ton truck did to him one time many years ago and his was Netural Safety Switch on bottom on dash also had wire in so work again that copper rod pop out thin wire used to that! Ole Man correct what he said might be problem to that most common happens Rev ! Yes dad learned lots in drive years how fix stuff I bet got going in few hours driving again !
Nice old truck. Better video. God bless.
If your gas gauge works it has a full tank. That is a win.
Awesome video thanks for sharing God bless.
Enjoyed!!!! 👍👍
Dueses!! God bless yall!
Love the dad jokes. Right up my alley👍
Good Seeing You And Your Father Back At It On This Old F-150 Rev. Nice Truck In It’s Day, Keep Up The Great Work, God Bless!!
Ignition actuator is an easy change out. Take the steering wheel off and take part of the column spart and change it. There is how to vids on here to help you out. Love those old brick nose fords!
Another fun video, thanks !!
Cool to see the revival of it. My opinion personally the EFI trucks are some of the worst fords made especially the early ones. Extremely complicated and lots to fail. But sweet truck
I love your show I try to watch it wen you guys are on
Good or bad keep crackin' them jokes I love 'em! I watch the channel just as much for the jokes as I do for the cars & trucks!😄
