Finally Got New Inserts For The Highboy!!

[@sandydaviswhytelewis5387]

Thanks Budz👍

[@S_C_A_R_F_A_C_E]

You can get brand new grill inserts for like $80 ..both sides

[@dekoldrick]

Wish I had a place with that many trucks here. The yards here only ever have a hand full and they get stripped to the shell long before I get there.

[@pattreadwell6149]

My 78 f100 needs a drive shaft yoke I've been screwed 3 times still no yoke that will fit

[@DevanEnce]

That’s a bummer

[@pattreadwell6149]

My luck has changed I believe I have what I need Thank you

[@so_how_do_i_work_this_app]

I’m glad I’m not the only one who puts the cap on the bed hole at a gas station.

[@earnierosenow9834]

epoxy the backsides of the cracks , use a plastic body filler, sand, prime and paint=problem solved

[@schmidfarms1702]

Looks Sweet, Mint Truck

[@DevanEnce]

Thank you

[@Tubbs34]

looking at this video in the uk is making me envious of all them lovley pick ups

[@mapquestHs]

I feel you when you say you wish you could save them all and hate seeing them in the wrecking yards!

[@atzion9230]

Wow I love America

[@Thecraig909]

Man a junkyard with that many bumps and dents is called heaven. Wish I had more than two in a yard here in Cali! Awesome stuff.

[@Loga1a2b]

I was thinking the same thing

[@DevanEnce]

Thecraig909 it definitely is fun to do a little hunting.

[@shwig2]

Tucking your ears in to your ball cap makes you super legit.......nice truck though.

[@michaelphillips5751]

HOW do you know what a highboy truck is and and one that isnt..i got a 1979 4X4 4 speed big block..and idk if it's a highboy or not..i did sum research in the past and the info I found was ford never put out a truck called the HIGHBOY. so maybe you could help me make sense of it. thanks!

[@reidbarnes9851]

I believe they were 4wd f250 trucks built from 67 through 77 1/2 with a divorced transfer case and 2 1/2" wide springs

[@nwfiberg8095]

@@reidbarnes9851 they were never marketed as a High Boy.

[@mwalshisme]

@@nwfiberg8095 that's correct.

[@karljay7473]

I've never seen that many old Ford trucks in one spot. I'm in California and we never had that many even back 20 years ago. What a gold mine. What engine you got in that thing? Mine came with a 360FE, I built a 428 and put it in there. Tons of torque. I painted my inserts flat black, makes them stand out a bit more.

[@DevanEnce]

It has the factory 390 in it. We are lucky to have a few places to get good parts

[@luisrivera2865]

Hey sean you please tell me where is that junker

[@yeboscrebo4451]

Look at all those memories out in that field!

[@markwoten6679]

Where is that junkyard

[@nathanharry8575]

Should check out the bronco in the junkyard

[@robakagyser2300]

Where are these yards located? Looks like a Ford Truck Retirement Home. Old Ford Trucks never die, they just go to the retirement home.

[@skylinemusik1]

What junkyard is this??

[@byrdejafa]

Nice truck, I have my father's 67.. I need to do a lot of work, but am not a mechanic. Amazing junkyards, here they are scraping most of them.

[@stephensaasen8589]

I'm wondering if that salvage guy you dealt with realizes you can get these parts new from LMC, Mac's or Dennis Carpenter? I just checked Dennis Carpenter and you can get them unpainted for $34.95 apiece or painted for $59.95 each. Shipping would be about $10 for under $100 and $15 or $20 for $100 on up. And Dennis Carpenter is usually higher priced. Most of this aftermarket stuff isn't too outlandishly priced. If you're looking for original Ford markings, they are manufactured from an original part or they actually obtained the original stamps, moulds and dies to make them, so the Ford markings will be on the parts. I really hope you didn't get taken.

[@chosenone101]

I love the junkyards!

[@ottepedersen9219]

Ive never seen that many crew and super crews in my life!

[@michaelsylvester7272]

Oh man it’s sad to see all these old fords sitting at the lonely yard. The grill looks amazing on highboy Nice job!!

[@DevanEnce]

Thanks man I am really excited about it

[@combatvet2964]

Cool video

[@DevanEnce]

Thank you

[@reidbarnes9851]

What height are the blocks between your axles and springs? I think mine are shorter than original. 1974 f250.

[@thethreewheelercowboy521]

Damn what a great selection of rigs to pick from. Around here they get stripped down quick.

[@KC-lg7tx]

Wow these junkyard trucks are nicer then mine lmao

[@GF_Burke]

Niiiice man. Just got back from JollopyJungle on monday. Pulled a wiper relay from a 91 for my 79.

[@DevanEnce]

It’s definitely always fun to wander around the junkyard

[@dieselpower24v]

I would kill for a new door latch for my fender toolbox! I saw like 5 😢

It was more about finding some original ones just because

[@-o-The-Duke-o-]

Devan Ence I was stoked to see he found replacements that inexpensive though mine for a ‘74 are still about 50 bucks plus shipping ea. My Local salvage yard doesn’t have one dentside Let alone a 73 or 74 to grab a proper insert from as of this weekend.

[@DevanEnce]

Duke that’s a bummer

[@stevenkryptonite1641]

How much are the standard cabs... 73-79?

[@Fordman7575]

Nice find! Why not just Epoxy the cracks on those inserts? You could fix them so they would barely be noticeable and keep them from getting worse. And the Bump side shorty would make a great project! Someone needs to save it.

[@DevanEnce]

I absolutely agree on the bumpside. I will definitely put in the box on there that’s a great idea

[@martinneps9387]

Where is this junkyard I have a for that I need parks for and there's no old junkyards in my area

They definitely have a few out there

[@bulmarogomez1284]

i am so pissed watching this. not at you but at all of those beauties and parts just sitting there

[@DevanEnce]

I’m with you man

[@bulmarogomez1284]

Devan Ence I have a 67 f100 and I saw a lot of trim that would be nice to have from there. I am in Texas and they have become popular

[@DevanEnce]

Do you need some trim for you truck?

[@bulmarogomez1284]

Devan Ence I am trying to decide if I do or don't, but that of course is based on the cost.

[@DevanEnce]

Totally get it let me know if you want me to do some digging for you

[@MrDjh66]

Now that’s a real truck Dana 44 or 60?

[@blue4980]

What do you need to do to convert the bronco to the f100 clip?

[@DevanEnce]

To put that shell in you need the grill shell and headlight buckets (and mounting brackets).

[@Joryja127]

Where are these junk yards at ?! mine only have like 2-3 really picked over 73-79 trucks

Should have also grabbed those front driving lights man. Yours are all faded out clear. Unless... that clear was the purpose?

[@DevanEnce]

The clear are what has been on the truck since it was new so I’m sticking with those.

You should have epoxy the cracks on those before you put them in made him perfect before you put them on the truck they do look better though.
