My Super Clean Restored 77 F150

Sure do love this rig! My fully restored 1977 Ford F150, modernized with Holley EFI on a 400 paired to a C6 and NP205, on BaT. Have had a ton of fun in this truck, and it sure does turn a bunch of heads!

1972 K5 Blazer Tailgate

Hi All,

I recently picked up a 1972 K5 Blazer and the tailgate handle is located on the inside of the tailgate, not the outside. I have a '71 and a previously owned a '69. Both the '71 and '69 had the tailgate handle on the outside.

Thanks for any information you could offer.

47-54 Chevy Advance Design 4x4 S10 Frame Swap?

Just a thought in the back of my head, but I'd like to build an S10 based Chevy advance design 4x4. Just wondering which S10 variation is easiest to swap the old truck onto (I do understand that I'll likely have to shorten the frame a bit, I also understand that the 47-54 trucks have different bed lengths, I am yet to acquire one so I'm unsure as to which length I might get). Thanks!

Rust help!!!

I just bought this ‘79 c10. How should I best deal with and prevent further rusting? I’ve already cleaned a significant amount of dirt and mud off the undercarriage with water, a little soap, a wire and bristle brush. What products should I apply? Looking for a very detailed step-by-step routine. Thanks!

Edited to add: I don’t have a garage or carport. I am in West TN. I’m parked on my driveway, have cleared out weeds and dirt on the driveway, and have a cover. Will the outside still negatively affect the body?

Just finished restoration

This was started during Covid. Got side tracked a few times. But is finally done. I’ve owned this truck for over 40 years. Over this time I swapped the carb motor for a fuel injection Mustang GT motor. Modified the trans with a lower first and second gear and after the cosmetics were done put in a limited slip diff.

1952 Ford F1 advice

1952 Ford F1 advice

Hello everyone! I’m here for some help. It has been my father’s dream to own an early 50’s Ford F1 for YEARS! I recently found a 1952 F1 that appears to be in pretty good shape, for a great price(under $20k). I’m wondering what y’all would recommend I look at specifically outside of the basics. Are there any problems these trucks are known to have? I was told by the seller that the truck runs and drives, original flathead, brakes in decent shape, but the steering will need a new king pin. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Opinions

Recently found this 1988 Toyota truck. I’m just wondering if this looks solid to everyone else. Obviously there’s a bit of rust under the bed of the truck- it’s been in a barn with the bed sticking almost halfway out. Runs great, and looks great on the exterior/interior
