That is a mighty fine truck! Sorry to hear about the company change but glad everything is working out.



I understand it isnt truck related but its still Ford. I posted a link to my car thread a while back and some of you know I have been putting some serious work into it. Well, for anyone interested I am posting a you tube link at the bottom of this. Check it out and let me know what you think.

That's just fine.

This is a chapter BS thread & anything short of Politics, Proselytizing or Pornography is just fine with me.

Post all the hot rod stuff of yours you want.

I'd like to see more on your MS work.

I pulled my alternator to locate and tap the stator post for my choke. Wire brushed the crud off the alternator. Didn't have time to go thru all the adjustment procedure for the choke - now that everything is hooked up.

I'm taking longer and longer test drives. Up to a three mile round trip now. Romped on it pretty good and nuthin flew apart.

Next weekend, I hope to change the oil and add some Lucas to it. I think I have a lifter ticking, and the oil pressure is very low at idle after it warms up. Hoping fresh oil will help.

Also, I plan to drop the tranny pan and swap out a leaky shifter seal. This will require a fluid change as well. Might add a little Lucas to that as well.

Found a forth tire that matches (same size and condition) the other three. I'll get it on the forth '95 rim this week.

Had a BEAUTIFUL weekend here in Nawth Mississippi!

Oh yeah, Thomas says he's going to drag the hulk of my truck to CTC if I don't have it ready.

We'll see if I can make it live again:

Thrust bearing got into the crank, because, who knows?

Block is going to machine shop this week or next. Depends on the chore list, weather & funds.

Nice ride. I can see why she wanted it.
