ABANDONED Ford F250 First Start in 24 years | Part 2 - Vice Grip Garage EP40

Most of you really wanted to see this thing cleaned up. A guy got to thinkin about it, and I agree. There's just too much good rust color, mixed paint, dents, and character peeking out under that moss and mud not to see what's truly under there! After a good pressure washing I'll give you another walk around so we can see what the old Ford F250 really has to offer!

My younger brother (34) and I went and looked at (and subsequently bought) a 91 Chevy pickup. It was a bit of a trip but not too bad. We popped the hood and I looked at it and said "Oooh that's fact-ry" and he about wet himself he was laughing so hard. It was at that moment I discovered that he was also a huge VGG fan. It made for some great conversation on the way back home.

Your pressure washer in the interior reminds me of a true story: Back when I was about your son's age, almost every Saturday my father used to take his old Bumpside F250 down to the shop at work in south "Minne-a-no-place" and give it a thorough wash...including the interior. To start, we would remove the ol' "wall to wall" rubber mat, he would hose down the floor and seat(!), and I would get in there with an ol' wash tub brush and scrub on the floors and vinyl seat while he washed the exterior. When I was done washing the interior, he would take the hose and rinse everything down, we'd let 'er dry for a bit while we had some lunch, throw the rubber mat back in, and take 'er home. Good memories!

Just a tip. (pressure washing is part of what I do) Wet it and shoot pool shock mixed half and half with water and your gain. Use a pump up sprayer. Mold will melt off... Seriously. Stronger mix if you need it. Of course, use ppe. You can also use a weaker mix for interior.

The leaky mechanical fuel pump can be removed and a cover plate can be bought or made to eliminate the hole in the block. You can rattle can the body using zinc chromate primer and antique white rustoleum glossy, satin, or flat paint as you wish. I have a white '79 GMC C-1500 I'm restoring and that is what I used.

Brought a bit of a tear to my eye seeing the ol' girl emerge from under all that Forest Floor growth. Please DON'T TELL ANYONE that I was crying about a pickup truck though. Even though I *will* confess that I am a Ford fan. For like the last four decades.
