Mods

I didn't do most the mods as they where with the truck when i got it, but i will list them here as well as talk about them in the video

Custom fuel cell that is the width of the bed

Ratchet shifter on the floor (for who knows what reason, its not fast)

Weight reduction in the form of rust

The finest auto stop technology around (sticky front brakes)

Custom exhaust (rotted cherry bomb dumped under cab)

Custom see through floorpan. 1 of a kind

Various dash magnets alluding to genitalia

Build story

So this truck started out as my fathers, he got it in a deal with one of my uncles, who had got it as a package deal with a 79 Bronco. The Bronco was much nicer

He then gave it to me, as we started in on fixing things here and there. Starter solenoid, new battrey cables and such. Nothing major. Then i blew the original 351m sky high by being a dumb high school kid revbombing the hell out of it(who knew that 351m's didnt like high rpm? Not 16 year old me!)

So the truck sat. Dad then passed away in 2018, and then my grandfather passed in 2020. Me and 2 of my 3 uncles (both ford guys) helped me swap a mint 400m into it to get it back on the road. Took roughly 3 days to do, starting from 5pm on a Thursday and finishing on a Saturday, probably 12 hrs in total.

Nothing special, not fast either, but sentimental and cool as hell as far as im concerned, and glad to have revived it with family, especially in a time where we where needing one another after my father and grandfathers passing (and there father/brother).
