It's easy to tell when someone is trying to con you into thinking something is worth more than it's true value. All these guys do is make others feel entitled to ask 10 times the actual worth.
Really cool build. Well thought out. I have had a 1976 crew cab in my barn for the last 10 years and feel terrible I haven’t built it out yet. This video is great motivation. Thank You
That's bada$$!!.. so glad these old trucks are staying on the road..especially with modern design and technology!.. Keep em coming.. I'll have to get in touch with you!
I had that same truck but 1979 with the 400/C6 engine trans. On military 36's in 1987 it was a beast mine sat alittle bit higher. It was a ex government truck with no smog in California legally. It was great except for gas mileage.
The best part about a truck like this. It's parts of the easy to get whenever you need to service it truck Since almost all the parts are literally just O.E.M. parts for a 22 Super Duty
Stunning machine, very tastefully done. I get why people love the patina, but just imagine this truck with an off the lot paint job of the factory original color. 🤤
I've had many Ford pickups, 55 to 2014. One of my favorites was 69 100 with 300 inline 6 with international 4 speed and galaxy 500 rear end. 4 th gear cruised 45-90 mph. Got great mileage at 75 mph
I really like that old Ford, my dad drove a Ford 4 door pickup for the railroad hauling people from train to train and sometimes hauling crews to unload boxcars
Don't have Instagram yes I'm a old-timer lol interested in the tuck and builds how would I go about getting in touch with this gentleman thanks for sharing keep the great work coming 👍👍
60's - early 70's are bumpside trucks, the dentsides are the next era, mid to late 70's. This truck has the line running down the truck bumped out, hence bumpside
I just tried buying a 1974 crewcab, and the guy wants $7k... Roof is rusted out at the drip, floor pans and bed completely rusted thru, seized engine, every panel dented... It's fine if you want to charge for rare, but people these days try to take part of what you might be able to make it worth... I found a 78 supercab for $600, and will work with that. Some people are going to die with their toys and never use them, thinking they're sitting on gold.
this truck made a quick appearance (drove past dave) on the channel The Dirthead Shed at the end of his "ford f250 repairs and road trip to sema 2023 show" too
I wonder if there will be a point when people realize that all that modern technology is PITA when it starts to get miles on it and start swapping back to simple. Beautiful truck but I was out when I heard that door chime.
Something about old trucks with modern wheels just looks weird. I understand doing a chassis swap with a modern vehicle I get it but surely they make retro wheels at this point.
They did it right, New truck with all the classic styling, and they kept the classic interior. Perfect!
I think it is too
"Character, rustic, patina" buzzwords for marketing that make damage more expensive! Yay!
Yup annoying
Thats because these are the kinds of people who when the new wears off they throw it away. So "rustic" just makes it "new" again

Man, you got to get after it, '76s are my fav because of the bicentennial
That's bada$$!!.. so glad these old trucks are staying on the road..especially with modern design and technology!.. Keep em coming.. I'll have to get in touch with you!
They are awesome
Oh baby, that IS the Truck!! I have a 72 regular cab bump side Camper Special, and this would be awesome to do it to. Great job!!
Absolutely badass! I love it and would be absolutely proud to own, drive, and tow my camper with that beauty!

I'm a GM truck guy but love the old Ford pickups -- that is BADASS -- I'd love one as a daily!
Stunning machine, very tastefully done. I get why people love the patina, but just imagine this truck with an off the lot paint job of the factory original color. 🤤
Coolest Ford build I've seen in 2 or 3 years. I like the idea and concept of this and love the color of this truck.
Imagine if this was available 25 years earlier alot of these trucks Chevy ford or dodge could’ve avoided the crusher

Live in Cheyenne, I clicked to watch because I saw the Wyoming plates. Not 2 County plates anymore, but pretty badass. Good job.

So beautiful. First time I see this kind of truck.
Nice to see a Godzilla, as they are getting put in more and more vehicles. Bitchin' patina!
It is so good
Love these builds!
All I can say about it is AMAZING. That is a great way to mix modern with old. The back seat should be incorperated with the modern trucks of today.
Looks like a great score, thanks for sharing, all the best to you and your loved ones
Thanks
We would love to get you on our show!!
I like it, I'm not into the patina look, but it's a very nice build.
Truly the best of both worlds!
Man that's a really nice truck, had a 68 f250 with the 390 and it was a bear to drive. Would love to have a truck like this one, awesome job
The style if the older trucks I like better. The truck looks great.
The business I dream starting and build but I don't even know where to start haha. Gorgeous Truck man !
Just get a truck and start
Beautiful build!
It really is!
I want that seat in my 03 DMAX. Love the build
That is absolutely killer! cant imagine how much it costs but its almost perfect just needs some 40's :)
40s would be wild
Love this truck! Awesome build!!
the camera guy is a sweetheart
What a cool truck; KILLER PATINA!!
It’s so good
Everyone used their trucks like that back then: tops of tailgates bashed in a little, bed floor all dented up.
Incredible. Wow; this is what I need
Don't have Instagram yes I'm a old-timer lol interested in the tuck and builds how would I go about getting in touch with this gentleman thanks for sharing keep the great work coming 👍👍
Great find & awesome rebuild .....
Bumpside? Never heard those bed designs as bumpsides. Now, Dentside... yes, that is what we called them in the 60's &70's.
60's - early 70's are bumpside trucks, the dentsides are the next era, mid to late 70's.
This truck has the line running down the truck bumped out, hence bumpside
That car just looks awesome 💯
Now it has death wobble. Haha just kidding. Awesome build great work.
Take that over a fully modern truck any day
its the best
Boxwood green is my favorite color
This is artwork.
Thats the last truck a man would ever need.

Yea it’s sad
All I can say is wow.
Yes
Just gorgeous!!
I love recho mod now it needs electric start
It has it i believe
I love it. I'd love to have it, but I hate the patina look. I would paint it.
That thing is amazing 👍🏻
What a great truck.
Sweet truck, definitely one of my dream builds
America 🇺🇸 🦅💪🏼🛠️
I love this truck!
Awesome truck
It sure is!
Would love to do my 78’ crew 300 in-line 6 4spd nice job boys 🇨🇦👍
Your i6 would get as good mpg and tow better when built than these new engines... at much less expense.
That is awesome!
bruuuuuuuh i need this truck its so cool!!!!!!!!
Really awesome
Glad you think so!
My dream truck
That thing’s amazing
Cool truck 🥶🥶🥶
Sick truck
I prefer two doors but I love it😆🙋👍
They are all good
He's got the same fuel door as my 72 bump crew
Nice
Those fuel doors were ordered from JC Whitney catalogs in the ‘70’s and ‘80’s
Love the truck
I would love to have that.
Bad ass I love it
We do too
this truck made a quick appearance (drove past dave) on the channel The Dirthead Shed at the end of his "ford f250 repairs and road trip to sema 2023 show" too
I love it I wanted to do the same thing, do you know what body style configuration chassis he used that fits the crew short bed?
Extended short i belive
I want one!
Only one haha
He said f350 a number of times but the title..
The chassis of the newer truck he used is a F350 the classic truck he used is a F250
Looks like your phone does the same crappy switching lenses focus crap my Iphone14 does....
sadly this is my professional Canon R5 doing it
I’m In Love ❤️❤️
So the body didn't have to be modified (stretched or widened) to fit the newer chassis?
Correct
Sea pine green? Very nice.
Boxwood
did you create the patina? Also you are you keeping it protected? clear coat. thx what a truck
TAKE MY MONEY!!
What truck did that “super cab” back seat come out of?
So awesome, what company??
How much
Just beautiful, a 4" lift and bigger tires would be sweet.
That would be cool!
Does the air bag work for the driver?
What year truck does the rear seat come from?
I wonder if there will be a point when people realize that all that modern technology is PITA when it starts to get miles on it and start swapping back to simple. Beautiful truck but I was out when I heard that door chime.
Turn the door chime off with forscan. Cost 20 dollars and can program almost anything you want in factory settings.
N.I.C.E.
❤️❤️❤️
do you build for customers ??
How much they going for?
I have a ranger 350 single cab 1979 and a 2022 ford super duty diesel 🤔
Sounds like fun
Im in VA. I have been looking for something like this. Where can I contact these guys?
Email me SL@fordera.com
Even the chassis is getting patina slowly😂 2022 ford lol
How many cubic inches is 7.3 liters?
Can you please provide a link to his shop?
I would buy this over any new truck if I could.
What’s the name of his shop ? That’s absolutely perfect!! Thanks for the video 👍. The look is great, people pay a lot for that finish ! Good find!!
Jack’d up Trucks
Isn’t that a fleet side?
Is it for sale or it was built for a customer
Oh yea, just so you can use the other term correctly, it's called a "Flair Side" for the Ford products. Step Side is a Chevy term.
How much $$$ ???
Does the DMV see it as a 1972 vehicle ??
it was great until you showed the dash . That motor stock gauges the start key up on the left would be epic
faak thats sweet
