Hell yeah!!! After 5 long months, and all the trials and tribulations that come along with a full chassis swap/build, our 1953 Ford F250 is complete! Watch as we put the finishing touches on her.
Awesome job like all ways!! I just Love how your wife helps you in the garage! I can't get my wife to even come down to my shop! 😂 Looking forward to seeing what's coming!!
Good point. We were actually leaning in that direction but we knew we were selling it once it was completed so we decided to keep it neutral for the new owner to customize.
My dad has a 53 f250 as well on a bmw chassis and a turbod LS in it and it's drift built. I saw this and just thought it was awesome that someone else built one too
Thank you for checking out the video . I keep thinking of doing another old truck chassis swap on a Euro or Japanese car. It’s a great idea you don’t see very often.
I actually did a turbo kit on a XB a few years ago. I think it was a eBay kit. Drill and tap the oil pan for the oil return and had to make my own inter cooler mount. Otherwise a easy install. Best of luck with your project.
I have a 93 Ford E150 Club Wagon Van 5.8L. The body is in really good shape. Would you happen to know what pick up truck I can get used,cheap,that I can have the body of my van,put on the trucks chassis without MAJOR issues.?
Thank you man! Love that reaction! It was a long 5 months but it was worth all the headaches once you get in and take her for a spin. Thank you for watching!
I think the ‘57 is a bit larger than my ‘53. A lot of guys are doing Crown Vic swaps on the bigger Ford trucks. The Explorer has a smaller frame that works good for the older trucks.
Thank you. It takes a few month if it’s inside, but it will start to fade away in a few weeks if it stays out in the sun. You can also wash it off with dish soap. Since this we tried Poppy’s Patina. It looks fantastic! 😎
