Wow, I didn't realize how strong the force on the darkside really is!}>

I wonder how many members on here have used a nice running donner to build their trucks? I just bought a 78 F100 ( 6 months ago ) that was in great shape just for the drive train and anything else I could use. I was like you are after I had it I felt guilty about cannibalizing it. Seems like after I had remove everything which I wanted a young guy stop at my house looking at what was left of the 78. Turns out the guy works at a glass shop and I traded him what was left of the 78 for some free glass work on the 56 later. He told me he already had a motor and trans and was looking for a mid 70's Ford truck to put them in.

I was thinking on the same line... Get another truck to put the 4.6 in and then you can drive it while you rebuild the other one...

Welcome to the darkside! The update will be a great improvement. :-X0A6
