I can easily see why you had to REBUILD the whole truck I had a 96 F-150 the biggest pile of junk ever foisted off on the public you name the problem and It had it even stuff that can go wrong did anyway, But of course you had to completely overhaul your own POS Oh hey I already know.

I respect the amount of work and effort but you had to do it otherwise you'd have a broke down junker I gave up fixing mine the list of repairs would stagger your imagination.

I was not prepared for the level of quality and craftsmanship put in. I figured this would be some dude in his backyard jerryrigging everything. But this was clean and professional. Great job!

This is one of those epic builds you may notice at a show from distance….nice OBS Ford, rare crew cab…nice stance and paint. The closer you get, as you take in more and more details….big and small…the amount work skill is just amazing.

Reminds me of my Dad. He could fix anything and no sloppy job. He could work on German, English, Italian, and Japanese cars. He always said the Japanese cars were the nicest to work on. He said the English and Italians can not make cars and must have been drunk when they designed a car. Germans were good and over engineered their cars. But in any case he passed away in 1989 and I miss that man a lot. He had 4 trades to his name and could do anything and do it well. Good job guys you take me back to a good time in my life, and your work is excellent.

I was telling my 66 year old father and proud life long trucker about this truck and he says…….why the hell would he use a 3126, that’s not much of a motor? 🤣 I bet it feels like way more of a motor in a f350 than it does in semi trucks! Love this build brother 👍

I don't think 3126 was installed on semis only on medium duty trucks

A friend's dad watched this , he's a retired Millwright, and he said "That guy would be the best guy in the shop, he can do almost everything, he's smart and got a big shop full of tools and anything you'd need. He has money for any parts, right away. If you tried the same thing it would take you forever."

IF I were to try this, I would probably be 6 to 9 MONTHS into the build and wondering IF I would ever get the wiring completed!

I had a 93 Ford F250, with a 7.3 diesel. It was the best truck I ever owned. Only wish I had the shop, time, money and knowledge to do something like that. Bravo Zulu!

The level of craftsmanship put into this truck is among the best I've seen! I think this truck deserves a spot in SEMA imo. It literally looks as if Ford built this as a generation progression collab with CAT. Truely amazing to see.

Udder disappointment. Via the title, I was promised 30 minutes of the best content available on KZread. However, after 27:22 of my time I was left to sit and think...I try everyday to work on my own stuff, being resourceful and reusing stuff when i can, buying new when i can. You are a true inspiration. I don't think i can ever repay you, thank you again, from Texas.

This guy is the "BOMB" Mechanic knowing all facets of the build like each was his specialty. He does it like an excited teenager on his first car. Truly amazing, maybe the best KZread video I have seen.

Just outstanding. I am a contractor and I felt the blood, sweat, and tears these guys went through to do this. Probably the best restoration/swap I've seen.

All of your builds have been top notch in their own way, but I must say this one has to be my favorite.

This has to be the best video of all time. You guys are the G.O.A.T.S. Can you build me one?

Definitely a “frankentruck” . No disrespect , but why update the dash , seats , etc . And keep the original door panels . Updating the door panels would’ve been the cherry on top !. My ocd couldn’t handle that interior but the build is amazing mechanically !

There is a scene in the original series where you start the engine for the first time. The look on your face when it actually came to life and started running was priceless and I will never forget the way you looked. In my mind I was saying it's alive it's alive.

Simply WOW. Now that's what a truck should sound like.

The joy on your face Rich when it finally catches and starts.. you cheered.. I cheered… think everyone else cheered too!

A great Montage of the build with a good accompaniment of music. I would also say that it has to be one of if not the best real guy builds on the net. No wonder Edison teamed up with you for their medium / light duty prototypes.

This is textbook "right after the commercial break" and how people genuinely think these projects progress, great work what a beast

crazy motor swap, I mean engine swap, I mean, great job my dude, thank you for filming this all for us. really really well done on all fronts, mad impressive to be able to hone a block and do all this work in house, CNC pretty parts even, AND film it all, and edit the video... very impressive man. mad respect! hope she has another million miles in er~!

Something about those cat engines just brings a smile on my face.

Insane quality build, work, video, all of it. Well done. 🎉

A good way to wrap up the weekend with a new video

Love seeing a passion become reality. Most bad ass truck ever. Would love to see what its actual towing limits are.

Massive amount of respect. How refreshing to watch true craftsmanship across disciplines and not have to deal with some egotistical "know-it-all" blabbing the entire time. Great video! Even better work on the truck!

this is the best f-350 build I have seen on the tube

Hi from Drummondville in Québec, I watch since many years your lot of project and every time it's awesome. I've started a project in 2018 to put a John Deere diesel engine 3.9L in my Jeep JKU and according to me I will finish it this summer. Your a great source of inspiration, you make a great job!!!

This is one of my favorite builds ever and I loved watching as you guys went through it, but thank you for doing this time lapse version as well. Really puts the whole thing into perspective

How does it feel to own the coolest f350 out there. She sounds amazing!

I am completely stucked on this video !!! What a beatiful work !!! Hats off !!!

Nice, just got done watching the 4.5 Cummins teardown video on DGHD and now this pops up...good timing, I have a bunch of stuff to do and now I can procrastinate a bit longer! lol

It really is worth it to find nice clean rigs from good climates. I bet it was such a relief to pull up that carpet and not see a rusty mess! I’ve never seen a factory floor in a square body ford, I thought they came stock with the license plates screwed in there 🤣

This guy is a great hero.👍👍👍👏👏👏 23:15 It's Alive! it's Alive! ...💪💪💪

These are the same type of dudes that if the world were to end they would still keep living the way they’re living… amazing build!

NICE !

What an awesome truck. Nice job guys, just wow.

I said my diesel days were over. After watching this, I want one. That's the right year body style and motor

That thing is priceless 🤣 talk about custom and one of a kind!! You just have to paint it yellow and black.

damn i mean the truck was awsome but watching him cut solid 90s obs metal was painful

Idk how many hours you all put into this build, but it was worth every single one of them.

most dont have any idea how much work actually went into that damn guys yal went all out!

For years I wanted a F-250 Super Duty crew cab, 4wd, converted to hydrogen fuel cell technology. No longer. Now it is this truck. My daughter has one still with the 7.3L Diesel but I want the Edison/DeBoss Caterpillar conversion! Thanks Rich! Cheers from Texas.

21:16 yes... The cat, the most important part of any project.

That’s ridiculous! Just the sweetest build I’ve ever seen ! I’m sooo jealous! To bad this disabled Marine will never be able to afford a truck like this.

I am just blow away at the attention to detail taking everything apart cleaning it building it back better. Not just fix it and maker work. Absolutely incredible work sir.

ONLY WORDS TO DESCRIBE THIS IS """TRULY REMARKABLE """"

To Say This Build Is Amazing, Is An Understatement. Enjoyed From The Caribbean.

As someone who maintains a fleet of trucks with 3126s, I'd love to have this truck as a personal rig. Those engines go forever. If this was a giveaway rig, I would sign up in a heartbeat.

That newer front bumper is a brilliant idea. Looks amazing! I'm stealing that idea 😎

In the 70s my uncle a bought a wrecked wonder bread delivery van. It had a 4 cyl perkins and 6 speed transmission in it. He put it in a GMC 4 door truck, he was a driller at the time and hauled his crew to the rig with it. Ran about 65 or so on the highway without much throttle, had to cut a hole in the hood to stuff it in. In the 70s mcdonalds had these snorkel type tops on trash cans at the drive thru, looked horrible but worked. Very nice work men.

What an incredibly priceless build! Thank you for sharing it with the world.

10/10 build. Everything from the stance,look, and swap itself is amazing.

What an awesome build. I can see you poured your heart and soul into it. That truck should last forever

Thats not just a motor swap, thats a complete from the ground up hand built truck. Absolutely incredible. I can't even fathom the amount of knowledge and skill that took.

I just watched a man build his dream truck. Truly admirable!!!

That is the single coolest and best quality build I've ever seen

I'm enjoying the 40 build. It's looking good and slowly coming to life. I bet you daddy is proud.

This is and has been my dream swap for the better part of a decade now.

Can’t even imagine how much this project cost! Amazing craftsmanship guys!

The absolute amount of over-engineering/re-rigging to make everything fit together and work the way you made it is just amazing. Even upgrading the internal trim and especially the LCD instrument panel. Just Minty all around

the level of skill needed to do this from start to finish is very very impressive

The level of GENIUS this guy is. Phenomenal mind.

The fact that every time I thought you were done with something, you pull out paint, insulation and even sound deadening is wild, amazing work... left me speechless and saying "wow" every other minute

I'm baffled by the amount of time and effort that went into this build and the slop in that steering

Impressive! A team with few crews makes the quality could compete with a car manufacturing company.

Magnificent project! Very well done & thanks for posting!!

All my hats are off bro. What a sleeper!

Happy for ya man , it sounds incredible driving by

I looked at CAT engine catalog back in the late.90's and dreamed of something like this. I just like being different. Never got the opportunity so here's to you for making it happen.😎
