Really can’t decide whether I want to watch this video. Why do you have to Frankenstein everything that you get? Why do you put those stupid Chevy engines in a Ford get a small block Ford motor and put in it I know more people want Ford motors in their stuff and they’re not as available small block Chevy‘s, but try it once. Sheesh I like your videos but do something wrong right way once!

Well, the engine was already in it when I got it. And that Chevy made double the horsepower of the Ford flathead. Seems like a pretty reasonable option to me!

i can appreciate the emotional roller coaster reviving old stuck motors. I recently purchased a 1968 international travelall that had been sitting since 1982. everything was stuck. cooling system was solid with rust. ended filling the entire motor with trans fluid and diesel. two weeks later it rotated. it now runs and idles.

Mortske, I am glad you are the one that got this engine Because you took the time to actually check it out before starting it. One Of those air quotes barn find KZread would have likely destroyed half that engine By starting it without noticing the broken rod.

That's super sick for a gremlin I watched the whole build and you guys reminded me of when my dad and me did that when he was alive keep doing it and I'll keep watching .

Huge thumbs up for Mojo and the growler. He has a couple of years on me but they were still teaching the use of a growler when I was in trade school. Awesome tool, always an awesome show.

On all lathe chucks the jaws can flip.. just note they should be numbered to put them back in numerical order so they pine back up for "self centering". But correct, all the lathes where I work are 4 jaw chucks. Great work!

It's pretty amazing, at the farm you picked up your truck(s), in the woods back where all those 50s cars and trucks are, just how they almost go back to nature. They aren't necessarily all rotted, but they all LOOK like their surroundings. They're somewhat rusted brown and any paint that was on them seems to have just turned a blue-green and they all just kind of camouflage and well go back to nature. Amazing find there, like you said, you'd never know any of that was back there. How neat is that?

Leaf spring wraps were very common. My 46 Ford had them. My dad had a long needle that you fit a grease gun to and ran under the covers to lube the springs. Some covers did have their own fittings though. And I still have that old needle from pop's service station days!

Having two 1939 Ford pickups with one being a flatbed, I can't wait to get into watching this episode!!!!

I would love to see that intake and valve covers polished and re clear coated maybe a how to????

Nice find !! The Lil 283 block is a gem .. steel crank hi compression pistons .. i built a few back in the day and they were screamers !! Looks like small valve heads but for a driver itll be ok.. i would use different heads but thats just me .. also depending on cam ya might wanna atleast pin the studs or install screw in.. i hope you continue sharing progress with the engine / truck.. I very much enjoy your channel and your encouraging me to get back out into shop and continue with my projects.. keep up the good work !!

THE 2 Flat pieces of metal you were talking about look like they may be a door hinge cover maybe for the inside of the door, 1 on each side more than likely top hinge. Just a guess Mr. Mortske, but I hope it helps if it is rite. You asked about these when yo were talking about the LOTS you had to purchase on the show.

That bug is sick!! Can’t wait for the progress.

The pistons are at least 11:1 with those domes. It's also a forged crank (you can tell by the wide, ground forging line. The valve springs and retainers are also larger than factory 283 valve springs. With those springs - make sure the rocker studs are at least pinned (or they can pull out).

Excellent episode, and an excellent example of how one modification can expand into 12 when you're building a hot rod. Funny that the '66 2bbl 283 has Power Pack heads, while the 'hot rod' '59 283 doesn't. It'd be cool to hear how that cammed engine runs!

Pretty nice 283, steel crank, should be fun once you rub the ruff edges off, thread the crank for a damper bolt, not that much fun when they fly off. Pretty nice pickup, very dry body, saved a lot of labor on rust repair, should be a beauty when you work the bugs out.

That's a good candidate for a build where you just make a solid daily driver nothing over the top just a good solid finished out car. I love it just can't afford it.
