I forgot to take pictures of my latest acquisition. I should probably go down and snap a few of it. It's an '87 F-250. Dirty and beat up, but not too awful bad.

Here ya' go. It doesn't look like much right now, but it runs like a top and has a new clutch.







Check out under the hood....



Hmmmmmm..........



For those of you keeping score, that's a $500 carburetor and a $300 manifold it's sitting on.

Thanks for starting the June thread, I forgot too. I had lawn mower/weed whacker duty this am.

Then I got the new roll cage painted and one tool box repaired then ran out of welding gas....more gas then the do the same thing to the other one.

Nice work truck for sure.

Looks good Alan! Had football games all day today, then shower and straight to work....my son passed out passed out.

Hope to get the new wiring harness in the mail tomorrow.....hate to jinx myself, but the guy said he thought it was both the tranny and engine harness from a 91. Came from car-parts.com...or something of the sort. Hope it is exactly what we need.

good morning missouri.. rich did you notice if any of the 67-79 trucks at rs had any good windshields? if i could save enough for the gas to get there over buying a new one maybe i would just come up there to get one. then be able to spend some time with ya, and look around at other junk also..

Yes I have, but they are few and far between. I am possibly making a lap today, I'll look for you.
