It looks really good. He’s making it look easy. I’m sure it takes a lot of skill to make it turn out that good

[@tdchotrods9889]

thank you

[@leonarddavis3256]

It was more than fun helping build this sweet ride

[@justinlebbon8005]

I'm glad you didn't make us wait any longer to see some progress! I wish I could do fancy things like this

[@tdchotrods9889]

Aww you can do much better just with wood.

[@ford_truck_garage]

Of all the videos I've watched, you show and explain it best on how you mated the Vic firewall and floor to the truck cab. I'm planning this build, but I haven't decided on what year model of truck yet. Awesome job!

[@tdchotrods9889]

thank you

[@DesertRatFabrication]

Very nice, i have been watching the Crown Vic to Ford Truck build, you are doing a really great job, and nice to see your Son and Dad helping out, looks like you live in Utah, my Son lives in South Jordan, and we live in Washington State😁😁

[@tdchotrods9889]

thank you. and that's awesome yep I'm in Utah

[@PeterHatch-mx7zc]

You have done a great job I have been watch this conversion for over six years its one of the best you make it look easy a real credit to you

[@tdchotrods9889]

Thank you!!

[@jeremydavis1716]

So exciting to see this coming together.

[@waynejanzen9346]

Great job, both on the truck and the video! I put a 1960 f100 on a crown Vic frame, and know that wonderful feeling when the cab is first mounted on Vic frame. I've watched quite a few of videos of builds like this, and like the way you connected the Vic floor and firewall to the truck, the best. I opted to use the full truck cab, but if I saw your video before my build, I might have considered using the Vic floor and firewall. It should be a really nice truck when you're done.

[@MrR409a]

Great job. Thx for sharing your build with all of us. One of the fun things in hot rods is checking out all the different ideas and builds. Love it all

[@davidmontemayor7943]

Looks awsome man cant wait to see it finished

[@tdchotrods9889]

Thanks man!!

[@PapaWheeliesWorld]

Looks good! Watching your videos to get ideas on my 65 Vic swap. I have a completely rust free perfect cab so I won't be cutting it and using the Vic floor. Love your build man! 🤙

[@rudysresurrection5897]

Looking great. I remember very well how excited I was to see the cab mated to the CV chassis on my build. Keep up the good work! Following your build, you are gonna love it!

[@tdchotrods9889]

thank you!

[@HappyHeartKustoms]

Looking great! I've just started a chassis swap, can't wait to get ot done

[@bobobrazil1973]

Hell of a job looks good..

[@DustyMacsGarage]

Nice work!!! Lot of ideas I had floating around in my head for the approach I was gonna take on my 66 f100 to 07 crown vic swap. Of course everyone does it slightly different, however Im enjoying your method 😃

[@HappyHeartKustoms]

Looks great! I did the same swap with a bull nose ford, I love it!!

[@MidwestToolReview]

While I don't necessarily like using the dash, steering wheel and flooring of the donor, I must admit that it came out very nice. I'm building a '58 GMC 100, of which is being mated to a '03 S10 Ext. Cab. Like you, I'm retaining/using all of the donor vehicle's wiring to make the transition a little easier...

[@partriotism]

Making it look way too easy!

[@tdchotrods9889]

😂 thanks.

[@Reddog08]

I love it. Hopefully I can use your info on mine some day

[@T.R.R.Jolkien]

Peter Griffin would say ‘Freakin’ sweet!’ 😎👍🏽

[@jerrymartin5884]

Awesome job man u make it look easy

[@johnwhitehurst474]

Cut front fenders and ~~~Add adding 2 inches to front or 3 1/2 if necessary to give you the room you need without cutting it all up.Fl;at fenders pretty easyt o do!

[@laramibar]

Es el mejor video que he visto hasta ahora de este tipo de proyectos 💪🏼😎

[@ricardoacosta6239]

Your truck is very cool Great video amigo

[@joshsoorlin579]

Thank u for making these vids! Love ur excitment man !

[@TheMajictech]

Maaaannnnn that is going to be a sweet ride. I have one concern though, did you leave room to mount the radiator support on rubber bushings? Looks like you had your brackets sitting right in the frame.

[@tdchotrods9889]

at the time i didn't think about it. mostly because i there is not much weight at all on the 65 factory front clip.

[@ThatsMe3841]

This is so awesome!!

[@rickytx85]

Great work! My question is which vin is the one being used to register? Anyone know

[@user-dv6qm8zf7v]

Can you tell me your centerline of wheel to your front fender towards the front bumper.

[@laramibar]

Cual es la medida que te dio entre el centro de la llanta delantera y el filo de la puerta? 🤔

[@scottrdillard7437]

what did you do about all extra interior wiring ? . like pwr windows . locks etc

[@TheSuburbanGardener]

Its sad to see so many trucks being swapped onto a car chassis. Use a ford explorer or ranger instead, then you can actually use it as a truck when its done. lol.

[@ford_truck_garage]

The vic chassis is just as good as a explorer or ranger if not stronger.

[@gunnerelliott4703]

Roughly how many hours did u put into welding on this video?

[@tdchotrods9889]

umm im not sure on just welding but i would say probably 8-10 hrs on the hole truck in just welding
