  Thanks Much! For now the plan is giving it 6 weeks to see how far I can get. So many other projects should be before it. Hoping to at least get the rolling chassis done for now. Kinda HOT out for any paint work. Monsoon season here now.

  Going to be such a great truck! Use it on the regular or weekend fun toy with a little programming. Plus the ride of the later model F150 springs, power steering. Great design for it.

  @@bewareofmountainlions4429 This engine was purchased (donor truck) was purchased by a friend way back in 2016 for another ‘66 F100. He gave up on project basically never attempted the swap. 5 yrs ago i found this 1966 F100 4x4 no engine basically just rolling chassis. I then just had donor truck sitting here so figured put it on list of many projects. Since i had already Done 2 3.5 Eco swaps into 66 trucks called Eco1 & Eco2 thought it would be fun to call this Eco2.7. I then sold project to neighbor. He tinkered off & on for few yrs then walked away. A year or so ago i bought it back as project stalled. So here i am! In the meantime i did the 3.5 Raptor crate engine 10R80 swap in my ‘66 shortbed. I am doing a 7.3 zilla 10R140 in another 66 & my daily driver is a ‘23 STX 5.0. So this just happened & dare to be different. Should put down 400 hp to tire. Plenty for a daily driver.

  Awesome project. How did you go about adapting the wheels and brakes?

• 
  @randysrestoration9 күн бұрын

  Welded up the 5 holes on the Dana 44 hub then re-drilled to the Late model F150 6 bolt. The Dana 44 hub was within .010 of the 150. THen made brackets to adapt the F-150 brakes. I posted a short on how true the brake/wheel adaption is a few days ago. I simply used the F150 rotor for proper drilling of the Dana 44 hubs. I will be giving more details as progress is made. Right now it's fitting it all together making it work prior to teardown for body/paint and final finish. I want to use a lot of the electronics to make it a really nice driver that has great power and MPG. It will have locking diffs front and rear.

  That's a wonderful story. My dad had a 1965 F250 custom cab camper special in solid no trim caribbean turquoise color with cream white grille and front bumper. I'm searching for this same truck dad had and one day hope to find and purchase it just as a Sunday driver. The 1965 and 1966 are almost identical with exception of the front grille which I personally prefer but nobody reproduces. They all make the 1966 variant. What guages did you use to fit inside the stock guage cluster bezel?

• 
  @randysrestorationАй бұрын

  @mysteriomarvel933 sounds like a nice truck! What got me started on these trucks was when dad pulled into driveway October 1965 with a brand new 1966 F100 red with red interior. I am building clone of it now. I have a perfect 1965 Grille just not sure which truck i will use it in. Dash cluster used in this truck original bezel was from 2018 F150 donor truck.

  Thanks! We did take it for short drive yesterday. Sure drives different! Working on my own stuff today but hoping we can wrap it up next week. Need to charge the AC and get the bumpers on and adjusted. They simply do not fit right vs the stock chassis. Will need modification of sorts. Still need to figure out what tire wheel package to go with as wheels that were on it prior to frame swap no longer fit. Engine in new chassis is a inch or two further forward so the cooling fans to not fit. Always something.

  **** I have recent respect for the EcoBoost. I was at my local cars and coffee, and a guy had swapped the 2.3L EcoBoost crate engine/manual transmission into a 89 Foxbody Notchback. (Looked like grandma 's car. Dark brown over light brown interior) It had Intake, tune, full exhaust, with 3.89 rear gears. It was very surprising, and quick AF. Epic sleeper build!!!

Still have 2 more EcoBoost swaps in ford trucks plus a 7.3 zilla 10R140, one of my daily drivers is a Gen3 Coyote. Make each one a bit different. Have 5 FE/FT trucks also. 11 trucks total.
