1967 F100 "Under Construction" updates

Post by Wueras67 »

Hi guys! I haven't been on here in a while but I wanted to take the time to post some updated photos of my 67. So far I've redone my engine bay. Took out my engine and cleaned it all up, painted it and also cleaned up the frame and POR-15'd it. It's still a work in progress but with due time (and money) I'll have it complete. I use this truck as pretty much my daily driver so it's hard having to take it apart and sit for long periods of time. Enjoy and please let me know what you think!

At this point I just plan to finish all the small details in the engine bay: hide the wires, new voltage regulator, new horn relay, add a fan shroud, etc. After this I plan to send me steelies off to get powder coated the same color red. Put the hood back on and keep driving her until next year (I plan to paint the outside too). Please let me know what you all think.

Thanks Ximy. Yeah I tried to off set all the red by painting my manifolds, water pump, fan, water housing, and other small parts either cast iron or black.

Looks great, Roger! To be honest, at the first picture I thought "whoa- too much red", but after seeing it all together, it looks really good!! I like it!

Please tell us about your suspension... DJM Dream beams in the front?

Thanks Tyler and Kf7mjf! Yeah I had a lot of people tell me it would be red over kill at first. But once I got the engine back in and dressed it "down" it came together really well in my opinion.
My suspension is basically just the Drop Beams (Dream Beams) with new red polyurethane bushings, which gave me a 3 inch drop up front. I also cut one coil off my stock springs so in total it should be about 5 inches lower up front. The rear is just a simple shackle flip I did a year ago. The rear actually sits a tad bit higher than the front right now. Which I think looks pretty cool.

I thought like Tyler did at first. But after the aluminum radiator and the black accented parts it looks great! Well done!
