Dang! Those are the BEFORE pics? That thing looks amazing! Hope you are restoring it back to that exact look. It rocks!

Love the orange, would like that have that truck instead of mine for sure

 

Thanks! We are pretty proud of it.

Cosmetically it will not change other than wheels and altitude. I have a 2008, 53K mile donor that will donate the front CV suspension, motor (4.6 unless I trip over a Coyote) and 4R75 transmission.

 

I really like these tires, anybody able to tell me what they are?

 

1973 F250 Ranger XLT Camper Special

 

Here is a shot of my front lifted '75 f250. It has a super tricked out c6, 4x discs with hydro booster and SuperDuty master, saginaw p/s pump with braided lines, aluminum cross flow radiator with a dual electric fan, 3g alt, MSD through a DS2 dizzy recurved, redhead steering box, all new steering linkage, rebuilt column, trick boosted tunes, headers, and a tricked out I6 300 that makes more hp than an oem 360. I'm about to install a ZF trans and new engine with trick rods and 351 pistons and custom cam. *The old thing about this engine is that because of the large pistons and relatively low flow U turn head, a cam has to have about 280* adv. duration, and 220 @ .050 to get a lope at idle. But that means is that you lose the down low grunt this stump-puller engine is famous for. After much research, and the help of some 300 I6 gurus, I've had made the first cam for this engine to supply a lope at idle and low end grunt. There is not ONE cam on the market that supplies both. But I have it!



Here is the engine before the shorty header install and the Clifford instake install.

 

 

 

love the color. what size are your tires?

 

Mostly original unrestored paint


Just cleaned up polished up repainted rear bumper


Old 360 block was cracked so rebuilt a 390 with a RV cam Edelbrock performer intake and 600 CFM Edelbrock Carb

 

[QUOTE=FEpowerdf100;12997597] I know was this is an old thread, but wondering if this video is of a member. I would like to ask a ?

 

This Seapine 73 Ford Truck is the exact truck that my Grampa drove in a parade every year in El Paso IL. I would pay you $150 bucks to let us drive it in the parade, the old Aunts and Uncles would like it...- we could work out the details. Your post notes IL, so I am not sure how close you are to El Paso. johnreev44@comcast.net

 

Work in progress.

 

Here is my 77 F100 with a 429

 

They look like 255/85r16 of some type/brand. I'm sporting Dick Cepek Extreme Country in this size and I like them. 3.55 gears.
