I'm in the process of doing a body swap with a 49 f4 on a 90 f350 idi 5 speed. I already have the cab mounted front nose slave and master so now I'm trying to figure out the easiest way to wire it to get it up and running

 

welcome to FTE.
wiring is pretty simple, power to glow plug circuit, power to fuel shutoff switch.
and if you want to get fancy, power to the cold idle/timing advance sensor.

 

Subscribe, Please post pics, us old folks who remember 1949, will think this is really cool.

 

^^x2!!!! Would love to see the swap

 

 

Great picture Alex, thx for sharing

 

That is sweet

 

That is awesome! I'm fixing to start looking for a 78 extended cab, to set on mine. Post your progress, i'm interested in the process.

 

sweet ride. i wish i still had my old 49 F100.

 

Thats a great idea, old body with a newer driveline

 

super cool project. what do you have for a bed?

 

I like the patina on it, I hope he doesnt paint it

 

I agree with you on that one gigger kinda reminds me of this model i built it was a '50 f100 with an '07 gt500 engine and a dually rear end out of a semi wish i still had it..

 

That's just cool!

 

I snicker every time I see it ^^^^^
