I inherited a 1968 AMC Ambassador after my wife's grandfather passed. He was a Green Beret and fought in the Vietnam and Korean wars. I am trying to restore this car in his honor but I am in over my head. You guys make this look so easy.
It's just time and patience. When you feel like you're in over your head, break down all the big jobs into small jobs, and then all those small jobs into even smaller tasks. It'll make the difficult stuff feel a lot easier to tackle and it helps a lot more with planning out the route you need to go to get things done efficiently! You got this!
We want y'all to walk away feeling a little more informed in every video! Hot rodding is no fun if you're the only one doing it. Gotta share the knowledge with the community!
Sweet system. Stainless bros is the best. One note, please everyone back purge your stainless/ti system. You are taking years off your system if you don't. If you are making a stainless turbo header, you need to 100% back purge, so there is no sugaring(massive oxide contamination on the inside of the weld, protrudes into the exhaust). The sugar can break off and destroy a turbo and potentially a motor.
You actually don't want the cuts in the x-pipe to be in the center in the bends like that. You want them further towards the back (end of the exhaust) of the bends so that exhaust pressure isn't fighting eachother. You can cut more towards the back (the top if you're looking at it top-down) and take a piece of the ends you cut off and make a curve. You basically want to make a Y pipe with a smooth curve at the v in the Y with the bottom of the Y having tails that both exhaust go into. Ideally you wouldn't use an X pipe and make the exhaust true dual exhaust. Especially handy for diagnoses.
Man long story short, the customer took the truck home, “temporarily “ in the first 48 hrs he ran it so hard he managed to damage the motor. We are waiting to get the truck back into the shop so we can fix it and get those final videos shot.
I’ve got a ford f100 ranger and I’m planning on doing a whole frame off restro but My nearest car show is 40 mins away and I don’t want to spend 40 dollars on gas after I finish it, what is the best engine to go with for long drives
awesome show. There are many good reasons the drive-line in these trucks is off center. seems like a pain for small things but if it was centered it would be much more of a pain for a lot of things. truck is great! I'm into the bumpsides but this show made me think about the roomier dentsides :)
such a nice truck... one question tho how much did this build cost or how much did the interior cost just wondering cause i wanna run the same setup on my 79 chevy ... but nice truck i love it!!!
I know I'm late to watching this, but why didn't you back purge all those welds on the stainless exhaust? did you use solar flux? or is back purging only required for exhaust components before the cat? Please get back to me! Thanks in advance!
Never had good luck with Fords. Had a 72 F250 that looked perfect but never ran right. Had a 75 Chevy Nova that ran awesome and currently have a 77 squarebody that looks like crap but runs like a beast. Chevy seems to work better for me but I love the looks of Fords.
How much would you guys charge to completely do? My Ford f-100 1970 XLT ranger long bed has a 400 big block. The cops smashed the bed and someone hit and ran my front end. Other than that it's not bad any new floor panels but I just can't find a good shop here in Ohio near Canton, Ohio. Anybody got any of ice needs a whole new wire harness. They tried to steal it instead of just popping the clutch and pushing it. They ripped the whole wire harness. Somebody please send me the right direction to a great shop!
Love the videos, love the build! Quality is fantastic however the FPS seems to be really off (almost like 15 fps) I was just wondering what camera/export settings you're using, could be the smallest fix but it would make a world of difference! Keep at it, channel will grow with the high quality custom builds you guys are pumping out!
Thanks for watching and thank you for the feedback. The video is exported at 24 fps, but we are getting a bit more traffic on this video than usual. Whatever server RUclips is hosting the video on might be getting a bit throttled which is why you might be seeing some lag/fps drop while watching. We appreciate the heads up and hope you stick around for next week's video!
where is the rest of the videos for this build???? I just watched all these videos back to back and my nuts got tugged when there was no completion video what dose it look now? where is the dyno video? why no video S2S
We were having some issues with our dyno tuner. The truck is complete, but we wanted it running at 100% before ripping fat burnouts on video! We also did some modifications to the exhaust as well! If you're having serious withdrawals, type in "Vossen F100" on RUclips. They did a killer video for this truck once it was in the final stages!
The “Green Goblin” is a good name. I don’t like coyote engines. I like the old school truck 🛻 though. A supercharged 7.3 or 351 Clevor supercharged would’ve been the bomb!
its nice, but with that huge exhaust right next to the rubber hoses, wiring i wouldn't expect them to last long. And why would u complain about how tight space is? u put the hoses, etc into that space. i get, it is a show-er not a daily driver.
I'm hating on yall so badly right now.... I see what I want my rust bucket to look like, but with my finances that will be 200 years from now.... the green goblin is pure beauty!!! Well I'll go and close my eyes and rub my Rustine hopefully she doesn't realize I'm having a mental affair on her...
Just start with a junkyard 5.0 or even just a big cam for the motor you got in it now and just slowly start chipping away at it! Tag us in your progress on IG too. We'd love to see what you're working on!

Stainless exhaust? No one is going to see it.
I really like how you Show the working steps and explaining what you do 😃 not only bling bling.

why this never get to the dyno?@@SalvagetoSavage

Where is number 9 I wanna see the dyno 🤷♂️
That is the sickest truck and it sounds amazing fella's, glad I found your channel.
This is a really well done show. Whoever pieces it together visually does a great job. Great cool music and clear explainations from the guys. A+
You guys make it look so easy! As always, awesome work! Hope u guys have a good Thanksgiving!

Some crazy exhaust hangers. Makes my fence wire hangers feel cheap.
If they get the job done then that's what matters!
what transmission u guys using?
Looking forward to seeing the completion.
Those hangers make it look hi-tech as fuck, great job guys it's gunna be a sick ride.
Deeds has some nice products! Thanks for the support!
So do we never get to see the completed product? This is it on the green goblin? I was stoked for the wheels and the dyno!

The coyotes aren't too bad but I'd look at an ecoboost or something if you're only looking for fuel economy
@@SalvagetoSavage thank you for the advice. Your videos have game me confidence and inspiration to compete the project
awesome show. There are many good reasons the drive-line in these trucks is off center. seems like a pain for small things but if it was centered it would be much more of a pain for a lot of things. truck is great! I'm into the bumpsides but this show made me think about the roomier dentsides :)
There's no reason you can't have a dentside AND a bumpside lol! We're glad you liked the video. We got another one coming out this Wednesday!
Love that truck grew up in one like that and our salvage yard badass dude it's badass
Thank you!
That might be the best looking exhaust system I'v ever seen, tight.
That's the way we like em!!!
Badass build dude my dream truck
Thank you so much!!
such a nice truck... one question tho how much did this build cost or how much did the interior cost just wondering cause i wanna run the same setup on my 79 chevy ... but nice truck i love it!!!
Shoot us a message on IG and we can run some numbers for you!
I reminded back to be sure you said those SB mufflers are 30"
so 30" around not long?
I know I'm late to watching this, but why didn't you back purge all those welds on the stainless exhaust? did you use solar flux? or is back purging only required for exhaust components before the cat? Please get back to me! Thanks in advance!
Awesome install. Tons of great tips in there
Thank you! Those exhaust hangers definitely got our mufflers lookin good under the truck!
Stumbled across this channel
Great music and all the awesome work.
Well Done!👏
Welcome to the channel! We got a lot of new content coming out. Both high octane and high voltage!
@@SalvagetoSavage whay i love about ur channel is that u get tons of work done and u dont just fu** around like other channels
The best RUclips channel ..!! 👌🤙👊
🙏🏽🤘🏽🥰
That Is A Perfect Weld 💥💥💥💥
Tim is insane with that TIG!
Very clean job, especially exhaust, cool
Appreciate it, our goal is to be clean and detailed on all our builds
Awesome build, can't wait to see it finished. When is the next video going to drop? Keep up the amazing work!
i dont think they ever did another part! booo
That F100 is bad ass!!!
Good Morning thanks S2S for another great video. Insane skills guys.
Our pleasure! Thanks so much for the love and support. We really appreciate it!
@@SalvagetoSavage all you guys don’t work too hard and I really look forward to every video, Well Done Gentlemen.
Is EP 8 the final video? Would like to see it finished
We'll be doing another dyno and update on it soon!
Awesome welds !
Tim's been killing it with these custom exhausts!
No seat belts? Aside from that, how much does it cost to have a truck modified like that?
There are seat belts. Safety first. 👌🏼 a truck like this is 6 figures
Lads! Where is Ep.09?
Sick build so far. Been ages between vids... Did you blow it in the dyno?
No we didn’t, definitely had some tuning issues that hopefully will get ironed out this week. Then we can finish off the series. 🤘🏽💯
Where are you guys located in Florida?
East Boca 🙌🏼
That is one nice truck great job guys
Thank you! We're just stoked that she's rolling down the road. Now to get it on the dyno and see what this F100's really made of!
@@SalvagetoSavage can't wait to see the numbers
No back purging those welds?
Awesome content
Nice job guys!
Just a friend from Brasil.
Fraternal greetings...
Damn, sounds mean!
We can't wait to put this thing on the dyno and see what kind of numbers she puts down!
Never had good luck with Fords. Had a 72 F250 that looked perfect but never ran right. Had a 75 Chevy Nova that ran awesome and currently have a 77 squarebody that looks like crap but runs like a beast. Chevy seems to work better for me but I love the looks of Fords.
Super cool you guys are amazing!!
Right on! We’re trying 🙏🏽
How much would you guys charge to completely do? My Ford f-100 1970 XLT ranger long bed has a 400 big block. The cops smashed the bed and someone hit and ran my front end.

What happened to finishing this F100 series?!
I think you should of put those exhaust hangers after those heavy mufflers
What happened to the truck? No updates?
yahhhhhhh buddy! "let it rip potato chip"
yeeeeeeah buddy!
Where is ep 7 ? Private’s ??
진짜 가고 싶은 트럭입니다.

Gracias por mirando! Deseo que disfrutarte el video. Tenemos un nuevo video similar el proximo semana con el 69 Mustang!
What do you sell something like that for
This one's a frame up Restomod for a customer. If you have a build in mind, shoot us a message on IG and we can work up some pricing for you!
Everyone is jealous of the talent and tools.

That would be sick! We just happened to have a donor 5.0 from another work truck to use in this build!
@@SalvagetoSavage Got it!🤙🏽🤙🏽
Pero sólo el tiempo les va dar su .diseño que chingon
Awesome!!!
Thanks! We can't wait to get this thing dyno'd and tuned so we can really smoke the tires off of it!
Great job!
its nice, but with that huge exhaust right next to the rubber hoses, wiring i wouldn't expect them to last long. And why would u complain about how tight space is? u put the hoses, etc into that space. i get, it is a show-er not a daily driver.
Please help me fix my 2012 Nissan Altima I’m lost about what to do
I would suggest finding a good local mechanic that you can trust!
I need a pair of asbestos hands like that
Cause they're working asbestos they can?
next time use seatbelt pls. nice work
There was no seat belts in those trucks originally. Don't be a Karen
What ever happened to episode 9 😢
not necessarily a bad thing but @Tim_Moceri you remind me of Chauncey Leopardi lol "squints" from the sandlot movie
Hello saludos desde cd Juárez Chihuahua
bienvenidos! deseo que te gustan autos clásicos y rápidos!
Impressive
I have the exact same truck....I hate you guys....now I'm going to spend my savings to duplicate your truck! Lol
If there’s no gaps in your joints and you weld it right it won’t move at all….nerd.
When I become a millionaire I'm buying my vehicles from these guys. New cars are just crap
.... bad as* !!
Thank you! Hope you enjoyed the video! We got a new one coming out next Wednesday too
Den jale
A mi ver es la peor maniobra que puedes hacer como ar un ve tiafor en ese llugar
Why yall use garbage fluids and oils? Find amsoil please!
I'm hating on yall so badly right now.... I see what I want my rust bucket to look like, but with my finances that will be 200 years from now.... the green goblin is pure beauty!!! Well I'll go and close my eyes and rub my Rustine hopefully she doesn't realize I'm having a mental affair on her...
