Smoken, sorry to hear about your loss brother! They don't build em Ford tough like they used to though! It's a shame that a classic has to go to the final resting place at the scrap yard like that though!

At least she will still continue to serve you long after she is taken off the road.

Sad day at our household, sold the F-150 today. Held the record for longest vehicle ownership for myself, 4 years! Had it listed for about 30 hours before I had a buyer so it went pretty quick. Now to get my CJ sold and then we'll be down to the Denali and the new-to-me 93' Wrangler.

After I get the Wrangler fixed up (won't take much) I'll be in the market for a classic truck. My wife just doesn't know it yet
