My 1978 Ford Bronco. The 460 Last Ran 16 Years Ago. Time to Restore it. Ep. 1

[@PaperBeatsRock]

Welcome to the channel all of you. I just got back into town after going to my brother's wedding this last weekend. I'm in the middle of setting up the shooting location and doing all the logistics to begin bringing this back to life. Thank you all for your support and patience. More videos to come.

[@hydroracer5514]

Paper Beats Rock I got a 78 f-150 camper special that’s been in my family since it was bought new in omak. Now it sits beside my house here in Bellevue under a carport with a blown 351M that I need to rebuild eventually. Really looking forward to seeing your progress with your bronco

[@terrorofdemons1168]

I have a 78 f100 ranger xlt shortbed that I’ve owned since 1994. It has a 302 with c6 transmission and a 9 inch rear with 3.25 gear. Motor has a blown head gasket and it’s quite rusty but is restorable. I’d like to sell the truck to someone that will restore it. Any ideas or contacts you could share? Thanks in advance.

[@robertwagner8739]

My dad just gave me his 1978 Ford Bronco that he bought new in 1978. its been sitting in his back yard for years. My wife and I are excited to start restoring!!!

[@Ohiocountryboy-se2cn]

Always liked the 78 79 Broncos. Never owned one but did have a 79 f150 4x4 with a 460

[@PaperBeatsRock]

Hell yes, bud. Love the Dentside fords. they look so good, and the 460s are beast mode.

[@mikeberryman5918]

I own a 1978 Bronco bought it in 2018 as a rollover just body and frame no drive train .My 12 year old son and I dismantled my 77 F250 that I’ve had since I was 17 to put the Bronco together. We finished it in June of 2019 . So now it a 3/4 ton Bronco with a 460 . He was so happy and excited and very proud to ride in it . All that hard work paid off to make those kind of memorable times . I wish the same for you with your bronco. They are so fun to drive they’re a awesome vehicle .Can’t wait to watch the progress

[@PaperBeatsRock]

Mike, I can tell you that reading this really gave me the feels. My son is going to be helping me rebuild my 78 and I'm stoked to take him out on its first spin.

Thank you for your service brother. As for the 460. stay with a automatic transmission. If you have one behind your 351m it will built right up but you will need to change your flywheel. Engine mount will need to be modified or changed as well. So people say you have to cut the frame to get it to fit but that's not true at all, its all in the motor mounts. Its pretty straight forward and a huge upgrade from the 351m. I highly recommend.

Hey man, I'm curious what it takes to do That swap, I got a 78 351m 4spd bronco and I'm trying to do a 460 Swap and I'm not sure what's different with the 351m

[@PaperBeatsRock]

So the swap is pretty straightforward. You just need a 460, the motor mounts for an F350 460 from the same era. The hard part is getting your 4 speed mounted up to the 460. There was never a factory application that had a 460 mounted to the 4 speed. It did not tell the 80s that the 460 had a manual behind it and then it was a 5 speed. I'm not saying it can't be done and many people have. but it's a bit more expensive and time-consuming piecing it all together. I will have to do a video about that build and what's needed.

@@HaventHeard307 Yeah Coni I did a full geek out dive on learning up on the trailer specials. Pretty damn cool stuff. I'm pretty sure mine was rated for 6,000 pounds and not the 2,000 pounds.

[@HaventHeard307]

You have any queries, let me know, im pretty sure i know Every nut and bolt and paint code 73-79 ford truck and ute ever, plus styling package, dealer ops. I am sure of that.

[@HaventHeard307]

Also, you would be greatly rewarded to keep the body as stock or as close to factory as possible, badass underneath, original overall, same color, same mirrors, same factory look. Same interior, jack it up underneath, thats all, $60000.00 truck all day.....

Where are the common bee nest locations I think I might buy a 79

[@PaperBeatsRock]

Door jams, and under the hood is the most common locations I have seen. If it's been setting in a dry area, not on grass then even the undercarriage but most of the time that is too low. Do you get a bee problem?

[@Thegpguy]

@@PaperBeatsRock kinda I live in pa

[@Thegpguy]

@@PaperBeatsRock it has been sitting in a field for year and I want to buy it it is a 79 ford

Great content sir! I have to ask where are you located in Oregon? Seems like the coast. I'm in Depoe bay and my old Ford has just as much moss on her. Lol

[@PaperBeatsRock]

Thank you so much for checking out the videos. It looks like I'm about 4hrs away from you. I'm out of Rogue River. It's just above Medford on I-5. Check out the Facebook group. Would love to see some pictures of your truck. I love the mossy look on older rigs.

[@tonymontgomery5827]

@@PaperBeatsRock i may have to break down and actually set up a Facebook account just for that. The old 76 ford has a lot of family history. My dad bought it new in Reno, his grandfather was with him and insisted that the truck be put under his name as well. Two months later his granddad died and the truck was paid in full by his life insurance. My dad passed june of 17. Now my 9 year old son and I will be rebuilding the old girl for him to drive when its time. Sorry about the novel, think this is more than I've typed since school.

[@PaperBeatsRock]

@@tonymontgomery5827 That is an amazing story, and don't worry about it being a novel I think it's great. Part of the reason why I ask people to join the facebook group is because of stories like this. Myself and a lot of others love hearing them.

PLEASSSEEE PLEASSEEE HELPPPP MEEEE OUTTT. I have a 1979 Ford bronco ranger xlt and it used to be my dads it’s lifted and big tires. It barely runs but then DIES. Please help me out I’m in love with this truck and can’t figure it out what’s wrong. I’m 16 trying to restore my dads first truck

[@PaperBeatsRock]

No problem bud we are all about helping people. I see you have uploaded a video before to youtube. Why don't you make me a small video with your phone on what's going on with the truck. The first start with walking around the bronco show what's under the hood so we know you have, then try giving it a start so we can hear and see what's going on. I always watch my notifications so just put in here when the video is up.

[@antoniofilms8500]

@@PaperBeatsRock ok sounds good. Thank you so much for replying and helping me out. My family wants to put a new engine in it but in my guts I believe there’s something small problem you like a small fix to fix.
