BangShift Member’s Project of the Week: Eric’s Speedy Beater 1979 F350 Build

This is a new weekly feature where we’ll feature a Bangshift.com forum member’s project each week. We have a huge number and variety of reader project cars that you can read all about here.

This week, the lucky guy is Eric (known as Ford141 on the forums). He’s a 1970s Ford truck freak, and with a recent cheap score on CraigsList, he’s neck deep in bringing back a healthy, big-block-powered 1979 F350 4×4.

What’s cool is that Eric bought the truck for parts, but then his other late-’70’s Ford died and he decided to swap all the good bits off that one to bring the “new” truck up to snuff. Be sure to read this whole story, as there are photos and video of the new truck coming together.

You can’t help but adminre this guy’s work ethic and speed. He’s making major progress on the build and will soon have another vintage 460-powered beast on the road.
