1967 Ford F100 restore/build project

[davbell22602]

Went to junkyard yesterday got Ford factory westcoast in almost perfect shape and set of 390 exhaust manifolds. Going to go pickup a 390 that needs a gasket set thats already tore down for 200 bucks. Same guy has a set of headers for 30 bucks so might come back with those also.

What did you find?

Ended up being a 352 not 390. Found 352 stamped on it in 2 different places. But was still happy with cause 352 was factory in my 67F100 not 390. But now I have 4BBL intake from a 390 off a 64 T-bird. Hope it fits and will work out for me. Will post pictures.

You certainly have your work cut out. Between this and those 2 old houses you have to rebuild, you will be a busy man.

Was told all it needs is a gasket set.

Can't beat that! what are you plans for the truck itself? paint, wheels, tires, etc?

Gonna sandblast it and repaint what needs it. Still has the factory white rims. Probably put a set aluminum rims with tires on and repaint the white rims. I still some cosmetic stuff thats going to be hard to find like the 67 only bed and tailgate trim. Also still need a automatic c6 transmission and lines. Also need the power steering bracket that goes on the block(not pump bracket), power steering gearbox, power steering column automatic, 4bbl carb (carter,edelbrock, or motorcraft) and radio knobs for 67 f100 radio.

Awesome project, my great grandpa had an f100 that sold in an auction for $100.00 and it ran, I was just to young to get my hands on it at the time, but I really wish I would have.

Try LMC. I've found alot for my truck on their website. They're a bit high, but then again they really don't have much competition.

They have competition. But I heard LMC's sheet metal patch panels etc. are cheap and thin.

I was told these guys have better quality sheet metal for patching.
