ABANDONED 1967 F250 camper special Ford Rescued! Part 4

[@passqualecaiazza7728]

I had the 352 in my 66 F100, great motor. In 1988 sold the 66 to rebuild my dad's 1968 F100 360 V8 , I rebuilt again in late 90's. Over 500,000 miles and still on the road, I could never park it. May not look like new, but a very reliable truck. I maybe wrong but, the part you asked what it was, I believe it to be a dashpot , used to prevent dieseling { running after turned off }

[@schneidersgarage688]

Oh that may be what it is. I couldn’t figure out what it would be for. That’s incredible you got so many miles out of that thing.

[@joeboxer3365]

As for battery, don't forget that that's a generator which doesn't recharge much at idle and still takes a half hour or more to charge it, when you tried the second start the kickback was over advanced ignition timing, back off a bit at a time, that uneven sound you get trying to start may be a dead or weak cylinder, pulling of plug wires one at a time and if one doesn't make a difference check the compression, could be a stuck or burnt valve, the other possibility could be a bad wire or 2 wires reversed, the fact the trans works is a minor miracle, myself I agree about a clear coat over the patina, the old gals earned those stripes, my advice is enjoy her as she is

[@schneidersgarage688]

Wow! I really appreciate you taking the time to share all that!! So much great information. I didnt even think about it being a generator not a alternator. I cant thank you enough for being willing to share your knowledge. The trucks still in a snow banks of ND. I hoping to get time this summer to work on it some more. I love how it looks too. I really want to perserve the looks as best as I can.

[@GooeyThaGamer]

That truck has beautiful patina, restore and clear coat all the way!

[@schneidersgarage688]

Thanks so much for the input and watching. I love the patina on it too! It’s so cool looking

[@RedWingsninetyone]

Not being from ND, I have to say, the accent makes this series that much better.

[@schneidersgarage688]

Haha!! thank you! is it that strong? thank you for watching

[@gee324]

it’s 3 am but I’ve been binge watching the shit outta this series, I know close to nothing about cars but it makes me furious knowing that my grandpas ‘67 Ford just like the one here is just sitting collecting dust. Just might make a mechanic out of me with these, interesting videos and you guys deserve way more praise than you actually get.

[@schneidersgarage688]

Wow im speechless!! Thank you so much for such a nice, genuine, comment!! It really encourages me. Reminds me why I wanted to make videos. I'm kinda a crazy guy, but I love bringing joy to people and sharing life with people. I'm working towards getting a better camera and my editing computer limits me alot. So it means alot that youd look pass the junky stuff im working with and just enjoy it. Thank you again! have a awesome new year!

[@Shane-Singleton]

Seems to be a pretty solid old truck. I say either rebuild the 352 or swap it out for another. The body certainly seems to be pretty solid. Didn't see the frame but if it's as solid as the body she's worth the time.

[@schneidersgarage688]

Its really solid! Im hoping to fix it up over time. As for the engine I'm still unsure. Thanks for the input. As always thank you for commenting and watching!

[@leslieking3974]

Awesome looking truck. Perhaps restore it as collection.

[@schneidersgarage688]

Thanks for watching! I love all ideas from everyone!

[@johnbroughton3401]

It's fun to watch young'ns mess around with a 50+ year old ride. I ain't throwin' off. A 50+ year old ride (When I was a kid) would have been a Model T.

[@schneidersgarage688]

Thanks so much for watching! I'm glad you enjoyed it. When I was a little boy my dad had a old model T my brothers messed with. It was pretty neat.

[@johnbroughton3401]

Rebuild it if you want it to last. For one thing, you want hardened valves and seats to run unleaded. You'll probably want to go 8 to 1 compression so you can run 87 octane. It'll run just fine with an OEM spec cam. You don't want to soup it up... After all, it is an antique.

[@schneidersgarage688]

Thanks for all the wisdom!! Those are good things to know. I'm not for sure on what direction I'll take yet. It all depends on time and money.

[@johnbroughton3401]

@@schneidersgarage688 Rebuilding an FE block will cost more than doing, say a 351W. It is worth it. Resist the urge to go small block. A buddy of mine is doing that with his '67 F-250 and it has been one headache after another. Do-able but what a pain!

[@blackforestvintagefords7872]

Great you brought it back to live. How is your progress on it the last months? Can't wait for part 5 ;-) Tinkered around for 67-72 Ford truck vids and came to your channel... Please make the necessary repairs and enjoy it! Obviously you have a nice base to start with ;-) Have one too, a 1970 F250 with a 360 and C6. Made some repairs over the last 2 years, no it is time to enter the street again soon ;-) If you need help and some knowledge, feel free to contact. Can't beat an old Ford!

[@schneidersgarage688]

Thanks! It’s at another place I own 20 hrs away from me right now. Life’s taken some different directions and I hurt my back and tore my shoulder so I’ve been recovering. Sounds like you have a awesome truck too. Thanks again for watching and sharing about yours

[@blackforestvintagefords7872]

@@schneidersgarage688 I wish you all the best - get well soon! Take care!

I bet it will sound pretty good once that manifold is replaced.

Happy New year to you!! I really appreciate you watching! Thanks for your feedback. It means alot to me. Blessings to you! Have a great year

[@livingwatershomestead1308]

It’s good to see the old ford again! We’re gonna have to do some burn outs and cookies next time! Lol

[@schneidersgarage688]

Oh yes!! the wild adventures must continue!!! lol

[@mattsergison542]

that vacuum solenoid looking thing is a gas saving device, supposedly cushioning the throttle when released i think

[@schneidersgarage688]

What in the world that’s crazy never knew that! I was so confused by it haha. Thanks for telling me. Thanks for watching too. 👊

[@justinraystyles3537]

So what happened with the truck?

[@wiggster1080]

352? That's rare around these parts.. worth fixing up bud.

[@schneidersgarage688]

Really? I didn’t know they 352s were rare. That’s cool to know. Thanks for sharing. And thanks for watching.

[@jeffchapman5742]

When you get tired of tinkering with it, message me for my address. I could deal with another 67 Ford truck being in the yard.

[@schneidersgarage688]

thats awesome! Thank you for watching. I'll keep you in mind if I ever have to face selling it.

[@rickallen6378]

Gonna destroy that engine if you don't fix that manifold.

[@Skihist2]

4 videos of start and take from one parking spot to another.....

[@timothypriest4791]

That is a automatic choke pull off

[@schneidersgarage688]

Really? How does it work? Thanks for watching

[@timothypriest4791]

It’s used to slowdown the butterfly inside the carburetor when you take your foot off the accelerator basically to keep the truck from stalling

[@timothypriest4791]

Its actually called a anti-stall dashpot

[@schneidersgarage688]

That’s really great to know! I love learning. Thanks for explaining that. I really appreciate your time. Sounds like you know must know a thing or two about stuff like this. 👍 glad you shared your knowledge

[@timothypriest4791]

I own a 67 F100 pickup I’m a sucker for the 67 body style

[@adrianmewis1444]

you should overhaul it save don't be a bone head

[@schneidersgarage688]

Thanks for watching. I tihnk the cost to rebuild is much higher then buying a much nicer engine to put in it. still unsure what direction to go

[@blackforestvintagefords7872]

@@schneidersgarage688 I wouldn't think so... If it has enough life left and the cylinder walls are ok, the heads and its valve seats too then put new bearings and seals on the internals, piston rings, valve stelms, a new timing chain, water pump and so on. That will do for the next years. Perhaps you can add a nice crank and some pistons of a 390 to it so you will have some easily added power. If that ain't enough you can bolt an old 4V iron intake with a 4V carb on it for some extra power. On top of it you could bring in a nicer camshaft and some headers. It is your choice but all of the above mentioned options are very reliable on these machines. I stayed with the 360 and its original internals and reworked all around it, it's fine for my purposes :-)
