My 1960 Ford Truck

[roadstarman58]

Three on the tree + manual choke = modern anti theft device!

[zman4ish]

is that shifter on the steering column stock for these trucks or is that something you put in?

[1962Galaxie514ciMPFI]

little hands

[RulerOfEverything]

@1962Galaxie514ciMPFI Thanks for pointing that out, you're the coolest guy on YouTube. I have little hands and big ideas, how about you?

[1962Galaxie514ciMPFI]

@RulerOfEverything you mad bro? dont cry! little hands

[IPPhonesRock]

Great truck. I had one in high school and I loved it. Really miss the 3 speed.

[1979corvette1]

is it hard to drive the "on the tree"?

[RulerOfEverything]

@1979corvette1 No, it's quite easy. I'm just a kid, and look at me go! Column shifters have their benefits too .. if you've got a bench seat, you can get your girlfriend right next to you and she won't complain.

[bbo40]

like the 'stripe' job

[sebastienmcbride]

the gas mileage must be pretty bad

[RulerOfEverything]

@sebastienmcbride Seriously? And you must be a pretty boring person if this is the first thing you think of.

[MovieTech]

@sebastienmcbride actually the 223 six-cyl did pretty well on gas.



[rafaelmc76]

@sebastienmcbride what a moron, go search videos of gay ass toyota prius if you are concerned about gas milage, what a prick!

[KenMacMillan]

The white walls are a nice touch.

[countrypicker1]

nice choice on the horton heat tunes man you gota buil another one and come upstate and take a ride with me i just took the y block in the garage today gona start workin on her this week end

[mustang2005]

you dont have to double clutch it? hm id think something that old needs to be double clutched. but that shifter is awesome really nice truck!

[mustangboss79]

damn thing sounds like a big rig... Im hope to by one of these soon its has a 292 v8.

[bradgotch]

The steering box on my 60 is as bad as yours lol. Nice truck.

[bilrider02]

[jakeyloser]

[18love81]

this video was good

im on cam and bored AG

[papabugs71]

Drive that pickup son!!!

[fordf100v8]

3 on the collar is wat i call it i love them trucks don't skip first and go to second

[D342DIESEL]

Your shifter knob mus be a small motorcycle piston.

[RulerOfEverything]

I'm embarassed to admit, actually, it's just something I bought at AutoZone.

[CosmicGrooves]

@RulerOfEverything Just tell everyone it's a real piston all polished up.

[bluvenge95]

nice man..im restoring my 68 f-100..was going to rat it out but now im in the tubbing session..it has the orig 4 speed granny shifter..you know of any sites to list it?

[JESUSFAN7777777]

THAT IS THE BEST TRUCK I HAVE EVER SEEN No tassels or bells or anything just a truck and an oldies, the way it's supposed to be DONT CHANGE A THING ON IT ITS PERFECT Love it. Not even the rims just keep it.

[bluvenge95]

any plans to drop it?

[RulerOfEverything]

Actually, yeah, the truck is dropped now ... 3" in the front and 6" in the back. I'm working on a longer, higher-quality video with inside & outside footage.

[miller999965]

what song is this???? yeah the six sound real good but the y-block sounds better

[miller999965]

sweet truck looks sorta like an old hot rod. what size motor is in it and what kinda mufflers are u using??????

[RulerOfEverything]

I built it in the style of an old kustom. When this video was shot, it was the stock 223 six cylinder, with a Dennis Carpenter steel pack muffler, single exhaust, with a short tailpipe and turndown.

Now I have a '57 Y-block V8 in it. Check my other videos to see what it sounds like now.

[miller999965]

thanx for the reply

[320309]

why do you keep changing the gears up and down

[RulerOfEverything]

It's stick shift. That's what you do.

[320309]

ok thank you

[bluvenge95]

damn man that nice i got similar plans for my 69 f100..want to get rid of that damn granny shifter in mine though

[HATEIPODS]

same setup as my 59 chev 3 on the tree

even got the radio in the same spot

easy with the downshiftin tho no syncros,

truck looks good tho

[importsuck56]

carefull with that down shifting. if you skip gears downshifting you can grind teeth off of the gears

[hickerbilly01]

Thats a really nice old ford

[tylerw2239]

haha love the piston on the column shift nice sounding too!

[darklarter]

i just got one from my great uncle. he was like hey i been trying to get rid of it you want it. its show worthy when i pick it up i will have videos

[DieselMikey084]

the three-on-the-tree has to be much harder than manual on the floor, even I can't do it like that

[qwerty987456]

what music is this?

[RulerOfEverything]

Dexter Romweber - Do The Lurd!

Reverend Horton Heat - Reverend Horton Heat's Big Blue Car

[derka1]

this thing has three on a tree to my 82 chevy has that colum shifter to its rare to see that to

[kathysue59]

Your music is very pleasing! ;-)

[mr3vil]

Is that a 223? Those little engines sure sound nice with or without mufflers. My '61 Unibody came with that same engine. I'm restoring mine and putting a 351C under the hood.

[blake0112]

Thats sweet! Mines a 59' I'm building. I'm lowering mine a few inches though

[RulerOfEverything]

I'm gonna be lowering mine too, once I get some money ... right now I'm working on a 292 V8 swap.

[oldswamper]

awesome truck! I have a black 1960 like yours but it sits on a 1979 f150 4x4 frame and has a huge lift and fitted with 40 inch tire.Sweet rides those old trucks are.

[MattTrakker]

Awesome man!

We've got a 58 Ford which is essentially the same truck, been wanting to make it into a rat rod and you've giving me some ideas for the paint scheme!

[WHEELZ71978]

i got a 63 ford f100 that is now a 4x4 with a 300-6 5 speed, sittin on 38 boggers. its pretty hardcore, naw im just playin i got a 78, but its a sweet truck you got in your vid, and it sounds fuckin sweet

[mmeyerink]

[nosyiam]

[LIVEVILIVE]

[haniwitch]

[ubeBrettu]

nice truck i have a 69f100 that im restoring

[Righty736]

Very nice truck. Three on the tree is pretty cool. Never seen one in action.

[Righty736]

Forgot to say that the sound of an I6 can't be beat.

[gangstas4]

is it fast?

[RulerOfEverything]

Not yet. I'm building a Merc Y-block for it now.

[161978f100]

Thats avery fine ford truck there! My '78 f-100 is a three on the tree to! Where can i find the piston shifter, and wuits that button you keep hittin on the dash?

[RulerOfEverything]

I got the piston shifter at some auto supply ... even somewhere like Autozone will usually have one.

The knob on the dash is the choke. The engine wasn't quite warm when I left the driveway.

[rivgum1]

You have a really cool truck, love the style, keep on truckin!

[ForkliftJoe]

This vids right up there with the Dirty Mary Crazy Larry chase scene between the '69 Charger and the '72 Polera with a Hemi...!!!

[GraniteMts]

Nice truck. Looks good in whitewalls.

[RulerOfEverything]

19 ...

[loganguy]

how old were you , in that video ?

[ABOSS302]

My dad ordered a 59 Custom Cab, and a 60 Custom Cab Big Window came in instead. I too learned to drive and shift that column standard. He ordered the deluxe rear bumper with hitch and heavy suspension. He got 110,000 out of the first clutch. It was great through Boy Scouts and hauling a tear drop trailer to unknown parts. The bed was high enough to keep bears out at night, but a 30-30 was insurance.

[JYPSYEYEdotcom]

who did you buy your instrument panel through?

[GreaseMunkee]

that piston shifter os siiiick...and i was entertained enough just watching the inside of the truck, who needs the road!?!?!

[RulerOfEverything]

You got it backwards, actually ... I removed the stock hubcaps and the truck never came with a bumper. But it does have one now. :D

[kc7fys]

I learned to drive in one of those. Too bad you can't find the stock hubcaps. Oh, gawd! You removed the rear bumper! Well, there was a lot of good pickup there, I hope you saved the parts.

[hippie72]

nice three on a tree i would love to have that truck i have a 69 chevy van myself
