The truck is awesome except for the power train. I would expect better from a cite calling itself Forddaily.

Why would anyone put a GM motor in a beautiful old ford like that? It’s perfect except for the power train!

Great "effort" but shorted in so many ways. Chevy mill is a Ford? MAJOR no-no especially when they could have dropped a Coyote in there. Those look great dressed up. In bed gasoline tank cap as executed and located? Really? It's a..... Fevy. lol

A flat head Ford V8, a 3 speed auto tranny, get you down the road in a beautiful done truck, get the "filler" out of the bed. Come on,,, dragging the hose over the bed, dribbles on that beautiful bed.

Gary I totally agree, it’s beautiful but it would have been much nicer with a small block Ford engine! ( to each his own.)
