FORD F100 Revival - Bringing this 50 year old Classic Truck back to life!

[@bigserge07]

Guess those engineers knew what they were doing when they put that gas vent line in that you removed.

[@terencemahoney7073]

Love this series. I think you do things out of order though, at least from my perspective. If you had completed the floor restoration, then installed the tank and seat, you wouldn't have to do things twice.

[@CTmoog]

Thank you! I agree. I hit my head a few times going up...might have knock things loose up there...haha! =)

[@MrSafetybug]

1972 Very first truck I owned. Love this series.

[@CTmoog]

It's a great year! Thank you!

[@wyattoneable]

Cleaning isn't fun for most people but I sure enjoy the satisfaction of a job well done.

[@CTmoog]

Oh yes, I like cleaning stuff its very satisfying.

[@KennethMason-j6i]

TC you got to admit something Ford nailed it on those trucks from about 1960 on

[@ineverhadthemoney7857]

put the vent tube back in place //and pull the sending united out hook -up wirer and trun on truck to see gas gauge move , move the float up and down slow out of the tank to see if it working

[@MattsRageFitGarage]

Looks like a winner. I''m really surprised how smooth and quiet that engine sounds.

[@Atomshamradio]

Hard to believe that was going to be crushed glad you saved it ct .

[@francoisbouchard602]

Nice job sir Nice Ford truck Nice show sir 😃👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍

[@CTmoog]

Thanks buddy! 👍

[@terrypack7537]

The truck looks great, that steering wheel cover I’d take it off and toss it.

[@JeronWhite]

This truck looks very good very good

[@SusanHutton-j6m]

There’s a chance that will vapor lock too if you don’t put that passenger line vacuum line back on

[@nightstorm9128]

Needs a trans fluid change and filter,,It jerked into reverse there ,Also the rear diff needs oil change,,

[@faizalmydin]

Like the gas tank of the beetle, there’s the pressure release valve at the filler neck that vents the pressure from the tank to the atmosphere.

[@Atomshamradio]

It’s cool to see gripper tires on the back .

[@CTmoog]

Yes, they look cool. It needs new tires. They are old and dry rotted.

[@ronaldpickler4215]

Gas tank needs to be vented like the one was u removed just helping u buddy or drill hole for venting

[@terencemahoney7073]

Yep, he bought the wrong replacement tank. Old one was vented for a reason!

[@stevensilver1014]

need a vent system on that setup

[@williamcottam3719]

Try drilling a small hole in the outside of the cap and see if that works before buying a new one that has to be the best vehicle you have bought so far good luck keep em coming

[@nightstorm9128]

It's the vent line he deleted,They put it in at the factory for a reason,,

[@Mikefngarage]

the old man who owned that truck.....That was his baby till he passed away.....Had to be.

[@CTmoog]

Yes, he really took good care of it.

[@nickpaul844]

​@CTmoog can u please post an update on ol' swamp dragon?

[@kevindoxey]

You can buy a new steering wheel cover. That one is toast! You need some terry cloth rags and hot water with Dawn to clean with. Those paper wipes ain't much! LOVE the truck! Those wheel covers look good on the truck too! Check the rear differential and grease the front end.

[@dolf1010]

So much fun with that cruiser . 👍 I hope the problem wirh the tank is fixed with that little modification.

[@surindersandhi3924]

Hi My Dear Friend Very Very Great Job Sir ❤❤❤❤❤

[@nightstorm9128]

The vent line you removed is the problem,,

[@frankdahl768]

Either add the vent to top of tank, or cut a slit in cap and use a screw driver to expand it downward to create a vent.

[@rongay6836]

Need a pressure relief valve to release fumes. Put in fuel line from filter to tank

[@badaxelbrewski]

Those two brackets on the back of the seat, pretty sure if you remove those bolts, you can then fold the seat forward. There won't be a catch or handle, but it will let you tip the seat whenever....including when hitting the brakes really hard 😁

[@possumwerx]

Yes, you can clearly see where someone bolted both of the two halves together, undoubtedly on purpose. Remove the plates and the seat will fold forward again.

[@richardoswalt1009]

Great daily driver 👍..

[@AndrewHCann]

Excellent Video CT :) for vent on fuel cap you can spray WD 40 on middle part take center off as you did and vent tub on tank to filler kneck so open cap slow it relieve the pressure that rubber Oil ring seal cap for also! May need change gas on sending until on top tank seal to or gaskets meder it so seal okay plus don't have fuel tank leak too! Also would get better Sterring Wheel in better shape plus horn trim to and cover on circle part but new at any part stores! Tire pressure all year round use 38 PSI even spare too unless haul heavy duty weights 40 be okay CT !

[@nightstorm9128]

Just put back the vent line u deleted,,

[@KennethMason-j6i]

TC isn't she sweet to drive feels good don't it so much different than today's vehicles can't explain what it does for you for me back in the day when I would be driving my old Ford like that one around liquidation on the back roads in the woods a little bit not going very fast she has a sweet serenity

[@SanDiego_VDubLife]

Wow. CT you didn’t take it apart. Now just fix things one at a time and keep it driving and on the road. Based on my VW bus the loose steering was caused by the drag link worn out bushing. I’m sure it’s the same concept on your truck but maybe by the Bentley manual for your truck. If not just get down there and look around. Look for bushings and replace them. The tie rod bushings will also cause wobbly steering.

[@CTmoog]

Yes, I'm pretty sure the all the busing are worn out on this one.

[@possumwerx]

Check the kingpins for slop before you check anything else on the suspension.

[@Atomshamradio]

Get the new rubber seals in the doors soon don’t want water in

[@SusanHutton-j6m]

You didn’t put the vent line back on that’s what that line was on the passenger side

[@davidmccormick1058]

It’s because you removed the vent line.

[@Atomshamradio]

Such a cool truck

[@ineverhadthemoney7857]

put rust removel on floor and pant the floor //to stop rust//on seat put 1/4 inch play wood 2 foot by 2 foot up on top of the springs inside seat to help springs

[@adriangillock700]

I love old trucks i had somr

[@andrewboyd9946]

You cut out the vent tub.

[@oldradioguy65]

Looks like it also needs a dash pad

[@jaynorberg3987]

Do you need to attach the hard lines that ran thru the floor behind the passenger seat?

[@caseyhaner4686]

I want that truck lol

[@dolfandon7124]

Well my name for this truck is gonna be Tarheel!

[@billyhensley7770]

Funky steering check the coupling disc in the steering shaft it was made to damping vibration and I would kill to own that truck

[@KennethMason-j6i]

I want this pickup truck but I know I'm not going to be able to obtain it God I wish I could though it would bring back a part of my youth anyway I guess I got to realize that's a pip dream

[@stevensilver1014]

If you take the 2 bolts out on the back bottom of the seat it will fold .

[@thomasweatherford5125]

Please put the bed rails back on. They belong with that truck trim level and look perfect.

[@CTmoog]

Yes, I'll install them this week to see how they look.

[@thomasweatherford5125]

@ - I know some of that stuff is kooky, but that was the look in the early 70’s. 👍🏽

[@Atomshamradio]

Great truck 🛻 ct.

[@wellingtonrosa4157]

Linda caminhonete show 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

[@terrypack7537]

Still interested ct , just waiting till you finish the truck .

[@CTmoog]

I have few more things to do to it. Tires, brakes, floors, window seals, shocks, bushings, paint detail, etc....

[@terrypack7537]

@ by the way I’m in Northern California in the mountains. Was just curious what state are you in ?

[@robertrais7395]

After watching your videos for several years, I think you absolutely need a Chevy Corvair. It's a unique piece of American automotive history.

[@philwilberg6004]

No reason to save that old aftermarket steering wheel cover….ick

[@Zjedi]

CT, do finish the red trunk.

[@m715fm]

There should never be gas in the cab. There might be a gasket damaged where the sending unit mounts to the tank. Should vent outside so see if you can get the right cap and maybe replace the gasket on the sending unit.

[@hasbeengood]

Before putting back the tank and seats and all the rest, why not finish the floor with paint rather than take out everthing again?

[@vintage76vipergreenBeetle]

Thats how CT rolls, with his projects.

[@hasbeengood]

@@vintage76vipergreenBeetle Yeah, no planning, do the same job 3 or 4 times and give us a lenghty product review. Costs less to do it well the first time and have proper work procedures. Anyways... he keeps them from the crusher, that's good.

[@vintage76vipergreenBeetle]

@@hasbeengood He keeps a few on delay from the crusher, but most will go. Maybe one of his local friends will buy the blue truck, before it ends up, like the other trucks he has.

[@hasbeengood]

@@vintage76vipergreenBeetle I'm sure he's full of good intentions, but he needs help! Anyways, I don't mean to be a jerk, just commenting on obvious "faux pas"!

[@billyhensley7770]

Sure it's gonna build up fumes you took the line off that releases the pressure it runs through the floor board

[@Atomshamradio]

I leave the original stealies on and repaint the rims white and new black wall tires

[@mickeysadler5272]

To much air in those tires. Makes em feel hard as you said. 32 is the recommended

[@JeronWhite]

But it's a real truck. It's a real truck. It's a real American truck like Ford's dodges. The older Chevy's area and internationals pick ups. I'm in there and cruise in their crew camps great trucks.

[@peterwright5396]

Is it a real truck cool

[@CTmoog]

Yes, love these old classics.

[@albegt98]

👍💪

[@CTmoog]

Thanks! 👍😎👍

[@nightstorm9128]

Should take the back off the seat,,Just 4 bolts,,cleans easier. ,,

[@jaytitus902]

Which came first? the sticky gross, smelly steering wheel or the gross, sticky, steering wheel cover? I have owned 3 of those "bump or dent side" era trucks and those steering wheels break down in the sun and turn sticky and grow. The more you clean it the worse it gets. Good luck finding a perfect replace ment for less than a thousand dollars. Get another twelve dollar Autozone cover and enjoy a clean steering wheel. Also if the brakes are acting funny, it is likely either wheel cylinders or the robber break lines have started broken down from the inside out. As far as the gas tank, that other system that you removed may be the problem. It probably needed to be replaced by the previous owner and was the reason it got parked. I hope the gas cap works.

[@CTmoog]

Thanks man! Yes, the OG steering wheels are expensive. I might get a aftermarket wheel. I like the wooden wheels with the hand grips careered out. those are cool. I'm looking in to the cap issue today.

[@jaytitus902]

@@CTmoog The afermaket steering wheels are cool looking but they are frequently smaller and require more effort to use. I do like the aluminum models with the wood attached. So the wood sandwiches the aluminum. That wood grimes up pretty quick.

[@Atomshamradio]

Replace the cap government gas cap crap you can probably remove that plastic off thiers probably charcoal behind the cap it sounds stupid but they do they do that to lawn tractor 🚜 caps I know. Do you have a vent hose from your tank

[@tmckane]

What are you spraying on the seat to clean it ?

[@GabrielGiron-g5o]

It so the gas has air 🇺🇲

[@endall6783]

I know it's a new toy "but" seems like your complaining about all the stuff wrong with it. Hell it's an old truck if something wasn't wore out that would make me wonder why. I've had 3 of these my favorite style and this one I would have loved to have gotten!

[@CTmoog]

No complaints here. I've owned 4 and this is the best one for sure. The overall condition is amazing. I'm very happy with it and can't wait to get some new tires, brakes and take it on a proper road trip.

[@bigbuck1318]

Put some dog dishes on it

[@cloudjungle]

Those covers are cheap. Just buy a new one after cleaning the steering wheel
