    That's actually a very solid looking pickup. Showing closeups of the floor pans, cab corners, fender corners etc., will answer those questions. This would be so cool restored. A short bed '72, very rare. Good video....shades and undertones of VGG....LOL!, except you didn't lick the dipstick! LOL

    I had a 1972 F100 , was my first truck & was red/white . Fond memories. I’m quite sure mine had the 360 engine. Had a friend had a 390 . Not sure they came with a 302 . The later F150 around 78-79 had the straight 6 option & the 302 v8 . Enjoying your video.

    I have noticed that most newer gas cans have either the anti spill tube yours had or the white square baffles adhered to the bottom center of the gas can of course though the ethanol junk in the gas eats the adhesive and the plastic type baffles just rattle around floating around in the gas cans midas i think it might be Midwest brand i don't remember it came from tsc and the older ones are from Walmart...

    Nice I have a 1970 f100 and I just learned a few things. I'm a incomplete quadriplegic and I'm trying to get my truck running but I think it's the same thing that happened to father in law truck. It would be cool if u make a video on how change the gas tank. My gas tank is in the same spot. I want to change it and put it somewhere either the fuel cell In the bed or like where u are going to put the gas tank underneath. THANKS FOR THE KNOWLEDGE U HAVE A NEW SUBSCRIBER !!!

    You should always put jack stands on the frame I`m not sure if you put it on the rad cradle or what but they are meant to go under the frame of the truck anywhere else your risking your safety and risking bending and breaking things on the vehicle.

    Wasp killer on the cheap and you can waste it as much as you want and it doesn't damage any of your interior panels or any of that stuff. Here's a recipe. Get a garden sprayer that you can pump up with pressure. Try using a squeeze trigger bottle I don't like them they don't seem to handle the panic I got to squeeze the handle super fast because I have a lost coming at me trigger pull LOL. Put a very generous amount of Dawn dish liquid storms sort of concentrated soap I like Don it works fill the rest with water and then spray your hand if you have a good soapy ladder kind of thing coming out as long as it can come out in a good steady stream you can pump it up and now kill every wasp in sight. Any bugs that breathe through their body will be eliminated and then you can just claim the rest of the vehicle with your soapy water. I have had the wasp spray mess things up. Dawn dish liquid doesn't mess anything up. And it cleans as it kills. It works on your house and all that kind of stuff. If you have a reoccurring nest you can add I think cinnamon to it and that's supposed to keep them from coming back but I have never had them come back.
