Saw a beautiful '79 at the local Ford dealership today. I was in a hurry with work but will try to swing by there tomorrow and take a pic.

You might find one at a yard sale.

This one is, for now, is directly across the street from where I spotted the red landlord truck.

I stopped and took a look, It's a '76 2wd, under the hood looks like a M block w/auto trans. Interior looks pretty good with the expected wear and tear on the seats.

Went back by the yard sale and it's gone.

Spotted this one as I was taking my dent in to get it inspected.



They're coming out of the woodwork lately.

That's not the half of it.

Camper Special!



Super Cab! On my kid's paper route. I was passing by the area and decided to swing by and snap this. The truck in post #60 also turned out to be on the route 2 blocks away. It actually gets passed 3-4 times as the zig-zagging occurs through the neighborhood.



Project waiting In the wings? Along a "short cut" route home when the traffic gets stupid.

I must correct this one...from the looks of it...it's a 77...76's had FE engines (Other than 460's for V8's) and Fender mounted designations...77 started putting designations on cowl

I didn't know that. Just saying what they told me. They told me it was a 300 too.

I told them it had to be a 351M or 400. The engine looked just like mine.

From what I have heard and read "dedentia" is highly contagious and incurable. I have had a slight case for years. Funny... but it seems to be getting worse since I join the FTE.

Dentfinitely spread by casual contact, hardly ever found to be coincidental.
