PLEASE VOTE AND GIVE ME ANY SUGGESTIONS AND FEEDBACK ON MY PROJECT, THANKS
Hello. This is my truck that Iam restoring, it's a 1970 F-100. I bought it off a guy who used it for farming, pay $700 canadian for it. Pretty decent deal because the thing ran and drove fine.
This is the Alberta beef behind this truck. It's a 360 ci 5.9 ltr. I am scrapping this motor and going with the 351 windsor. Parts for the windsor are more plentiful and modifying them are a lot easier.
It was pretty easy stripping this thing down. Putting it back together is going to be the real fun part. I stripped the front end and gutted out the cab. I have decided to go with a mustang II frontend. This will ensure that the truck will ride like a caddy. And the frame is getting finished up with a nice layer of black powdercoating
Here I am pulling the motor, cab and box off. Pretty basic stuff, strip the frame and get it prepped for some powdercoating.
Here is the bare frame right now, just need to clean it and prep it up for the sandblaster.Here's the frame with pretty much everything off it, just a few more things to come off and the frontend is getting chopped and tig welded to accomidate the mustang II frontend.
Say good bye to this oldschool setup....
The truck is already set up with a 9 inch rearend. Just need to rebuild it and put a detroit locker or possi-trac in there. we'll see, haven't got that far though.
I am getting ready to get out the cutting torch. I also orderd all the parts for the mustang II frontend. The kit comes with the crossmember, A arms, Springs, 12 inch Disc brakes, tierods, powersteering kit. And that stuff should be here pretty soon. One of the more expensive parts of my project, $3000 bill.
This is my buddys 1972 chevy nova. It's got a 454 big block chevy in it. He says it's pushing around 510 HP. Thats not bullshit because just look at these pics....
NEED I SAY MORE ABOUT V8 POWER..CAN YOUR 4 CYLINDER CIVIC DO THIS?...SEND ME THE PICS IF IT CAN
And now the face behind the project. I am 18 and I have a job at the saw mill. I am also paying for every penny of this project.
This is my beater a Toyota Celica, It gets me around and I redid the body on this thing and rebuilt the motor.
Thanks for checking out my truck, I will be constantly updating this page. please rate my truck and give me any feedback thanks alot, chow
