What those REAR blocks rock, wish it had a way to get a set on the front too!

DO NOT PANIC I AM KIDDING AND LMAO....I'd like to test drive it and race it in real tight circles till the body fell off, might be cheaper that way?

The owner is friends with this guy, I bet.

I rolled my 79 F250 4x4 on the passenger side in a residential area....corner post of a split rail fence ect...don't ask.

Wrecker flipped it back over on all 4's, I sort of remember putting 3 or 4 qts of oil in it and fired it up and drove it home....Built Ford tough!

Sorry no live action pics, but the morning after...drove it like that for quit a while and then sold it to the guy riding with me when I rolled it.

WOW!!! The only thing scarier than stacked blocks on a rear end......is THIS!!

I love the diamond plate lateral stabilizer between the blocks!! It is an engineering masterpiece!!

Looks like I got here too late. The listing has been deleted. Surely someone saved a picture of it
