Fixing An Issue That Has Been Bothering Me.. AND Helping My Dad Test Mount His Ford F1 Truck Cab!

[@MrNovaAddict]

On the F1 - I believe the cab sit on top of wood blocks originally. Could be wrong, but that may have been why the pinch weld flanges were contacting

Good to know, thank you!

[@steveblankenship2413]

Looking good nice detail work

[@RyanSampsonRPh]

Hi Steve, thank you!

[@TrickShiftGarage]

Wow very nice man. The camaro is coming along nicely. 👍

[@RyanSampsonRPh]

Thanks man!

[@HOBrian2003]

Ryan great job as always!! Look into an oil pressure isolator, it will break the system in two. Keeping the engine oil in the engine compartment, and a small amount of antifreeze inside the car. I ran one of these on my Cummins fuel pressure because if the line ever broke, I didn’t want diesel fuel running inside my truck. The new braided line should connect right up!

[@RyanSampsonRPh]

Sounds good, I never heard of that before so I will have to look into it👍

[@giancarlopbranco]

Nice job! Thanks for share knowledge!

[@RyanSampsonRPh]

Thanks for watching!

[@markleblanc3447]

What a difference on that hood. Fantastic.

[@billtaglia2865]

The gloss paint makes those areas pop.

[@1ocean515]

Nice video Ryan. Enjoy your content and appreciate the effort. Glad to see the discipline to do it right. Getting the final result to match the picture in your mind takes time and patience. 👍👍

[@RyanSampsonRPh]

Definitely! Thank you for sticking around and commenting as always 🙂👍

[@lonnieharris6197]

[@RyanSampsonRPh]

[@TommyRibs]

Looks great. This car is going to be amazing when it is all done.

[@JOne0442]

Excellent work Ryan, looks better than new. You have to enter some contests with this beautiful Camaro. You'll win for sure!! Can't wait to see it finished. Keep it going brother 💯

[@RyanSampsonRPh]

Thanks Jimmy! I plan on going to as many shows as possible when it’s (finally) done 👍👌

[@tonybosworth5382]

I painted my fender wells separately. That was a boo boo. I have been debating doing the, again also. What a pain! Yours look great Ryan!

[@2010sleeperlol]

PLEASE keep us updated on the f100

[@ralphnorton8324]

We're with ya brother.

[@RyanSampsonRPh]

Thanks man!!

[@paulzehms8520]

Ryan, There should be a heavy molded seal that should available, probably through Eckler's, to be placed between the heater cover and the firewall (engine side). I ordered this seal when I restored my heater on my 1963 Chevy Impala. This cover has been available and used on many Chevrolet models as well as other G.M. makes through Eckler's for years. If you want a correct restored stock appearing car order one and avoid taking a short cut on something that was able to be achieved at this time allowing a quality restored show car. This heater cover will always be visible every time when the hood is up and be seen. The self adhering foam strip will not hold up under the hood what with the engine heat and the general weather conditions of driving the car.

Ryan, you said “it’s done correctly now”, that’s what I’m waiting on you to say about the Camaro engine! I’ve watched your videos enough to know, if you do it it’s done correctly. I do hope the machine shop finishes with all the engine work very soon. Thanks for the update video!!!

[@RyanSampsonRPh]

Thanks Don! Been a long time coming for sure, oh well, soon enough!

[@MRKRG9]

I loved that comment!!! I concur

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Cool!

[@PuristMotorsports]

Engine bay looks great now. Is the machine shop doing any assembly for you or just machining parts?

[@RyanSampsonRPh]

Nope they are just doing the machine work but keep delaying “my turn..” Oh well, he said I should have it back in another week so I can start to assemble it all myself. Kinda at a stand still at the moment since I have nothing left to do (good and bad thing haha).

[@berniepeskett2566]

I’ve said it before, but after each Camaro video, I think how much I love your attention to detail and how determined you remain to have this car in concours condition. Having watched this build from the beginning, it is my favourite of your projects so far, mostly because I believe it is the sleekest, sexiest model GM made in the 70’s. Keep up the amazing work! 👍🇨🇦

[@RyanSampsonRPh]

Thanks Bernie for the support and sticking with me! Much appreciated 😁👍

[@ecoron2721]

Hope that engine comes before the end of summer! Can't wait to see it on the road.

[@RyanSampsonRPh]

I hope so too!

[@johnmilner7603]

Ryan, the heater box shoukd be gloss black. 67-69 Firewall: Semi-flat black 30 percent semi-gloss black paint. Prob the same for 2nd Gen. Different guys on nastyz28.com use their own liking.

[@RyanSampsonRPh]

Thanks for the tip John! I got it to where I like the gloss level and it should be close to original. If not, it’s a cool “batman black” that I was looking to finally achieve🙂

[@mikemontgomery7337]

Hey Ryan. Are you keeping a running cost total to share w us at the end ? Give us an idea if we wanna try something like ur project .

[@3121cKOne]

Hey Ryan, Welcome Back! We always enjoy watching your KZbin channel and are very impressed with your attention to detail. You do it the proper way the first time. Excellent work ethics and any job you complete is always premium quality. Very nice job so far on the Camaro, can’t wait to see it when it’s finally finished. Keep up the good work my friend. -cKOne3121

[@RyanSampsonRPh]

Thank you for sticking with me and watching, I appreciate ya!

[@lesaatuatasi6267]

You should have Skillshare sponsor you bro'

[@RyanSampsonRPh]

That would be pretty cool!

[@larryburwell8550]

well ryan you have striped and repainted everything on the car except the body. when you spend all this money to make it mint condition. repaint the body!!

[@RyanSampsonRPh]

After I get the engine back in and drive it a year, I most likely will 🙂👍. It’s turning out too nice not to do the whole thing!
