Complete Chevy guy giving respect! Great truck those years early 70something till middle 80's were chevy and fords years! I have an 84 C10 since '97.... 6 motors later and 4 transmissions and hundreds of thousands of miles I still wouldn't trade it for 2 of the new POS chevy or ford trucks today. Maybe one day I'll get an old ford and figure out how to negotiate the distributor in the wrong place lol. Respect to the classics!
Super sexy truck man My first truck that I bought was a 78 f250 with a 460 big block C5 transmission I was 10 years old bought it from my dad for a hundred bucks tore it down me and a buddy to the frame didn't know what we were doing but we were doing it finally got to drive it at 17 Good looking truck Love it bubba looking for another one
Beautiful!! I see it has a front hitch. My 79 has one as well, but whoever put it on, did a hack job and welded it to the frame. What hitch do you have? I will need to get another one that fits proper. Great example and really like the color combo! Thanks for posting
I have a 77 f150 with a swapped 429 Thunder Jet and I wanted to upgrade the distributor, coil and electronic module. I see you have an MSD set up on your 460. Which set up do you recommend for the 429? Thanks in advance.
Absolutely an awesome Bakkie (pick-up). May ask what size tyres and rims you used and that’s a stock lift on the suspension and body? I am building one in South Africa. Thank you

Maybe a 78 with a 76-77 grill.
And 76 fender badges.....
She's a beauty.They dont make em like that anymore.
I bought a 79 150 4x4 new. Your truck is sharp! I have a 1990 F350 4x4 460 now. The "Dinosour". Best of luck!
I'm in love. Beautifully done. I will have one. Some day.
Sweet ride
Awesome
Nice rig
LOVE IT!!!!
‘78 with an older front clip?
Beautiful truck brother! Where did you get your electric windows and front headlights. They are awesome.
Windows aren’t electric, they’re air powered, custom, did all the work myself. Headlights are Truck Lite LED.
@@maverick2pro848 Very cool. Love your truck brother. I have a 77 same color short box that I put a 429 in. It moves...
Very nice
Beautiful truck Perfect stance would you mind sharing the wheel and tire combo size?
Tires are LT315/75R16 on 16x10 wheels
That's a 1977 or lower grill.
You are correct. Truck is a 1978, front grille is from a 1977.
You could get that grill in a 78 or 79 only
@@tomoconnor7528 that grille ONLY came in the 76/77 models
@@warrenmcelroy4718 I have a factory 78 in my driveway and have owned dentsides all my life. Wrong SO WRONG
77.5 AND BACK DID NOT HAVE HEADLIGHT BEZEL SOLID INSERTS ONLY 73-77.5
Beautiful truck is this thing for sale!? Im jealous of it! 🤣
no sorry not for sale

Torklift Central in Kent, WA installed the front hitch
One amazing truck! What size lift, tires and rims did you use? That is a perfect stance. Im in the process of building a 78.
Pretty sure that might be stock height
I wish had learned to rebuild engine's my brother lnlaw has 2 trucks similar to this just sitting around under trees
Looks like a 77 with that grill .. couldve been changed i geuss

Truck is awesome but the front clip isn't a 78, looks like a 76. Still awesome though.

Tires are 315/75R16 on 16x10 wheels. Suspension is all aftermarket, I used Superduty leaf springs front and rear with leafs removed and then air bags
It looks like it has a 77 grill and wear 73 to 75 badging on the fenders
D60 king pin front with a Sterling 10.25" rear?
Nice! What's the specs on the motor build?

Just wondering why they put them crappy tires on such a nice truck...
What size tires and lift?
What song is playing on your clip?
Top Gun theme song
That's not a 1978 Ford front end on that truck,looks like the front end on my 1977 Ford 250 Highboy
This isn't 78 it's about 74 to 76
Its a 77. In 78 the letters Ford are on the hood.
76... fender badges are from 76 not 77
@@chris1451 you are right.
Restored or survivor?
Survivor and daily driver
Take me now truck lol its sexy
Nice truck. But what's up with these guys putting fucking songs on background? I'd rather hear the truck than music
bad to the bone
Can I email you! Would like to learn from you so I can build my own.
what would you like to know? I've had the truck 20+ years and been slowly building it as the funds became available...
