I really dont think so. You can bet we would rise to the occasion.:-drink

We are alittle off topic but the only reason we beat the Nazis was we could make ships, tanks, Jeeps etc. faster than Hitler could. Do you think we can make these things as fast as China now?

Hey folks lets get back to Old Working Ford Trucks

This is a great thread, wish I had something to add, but Ill at least bring it back up to the top. Spike

My 56 F350 dually that usually resides in my barn.

Great old pictures guys/gals, found this one some where on the internet. I kind of liked it so I saved it.

Here's another picture of one of those ice cream trucks like I posted a couple days ago. That company is called Good Humor Ice Cream. They have a website and a section that mentions their trucks from the past. www.goodhumor.com

My Dad's work truck from the early 50s. Guess that is why I bonded with the 48-50 style.

Here is a shot of a friend of the family that ran the local garage and towing service. Even a service truck gets a flat once in awhile. This shot was labeled 1958.

Way to go Bid Mo!!

You always seem to surprise me with what you have in your stable.

Nice Truck

Bobby

Thanks Bobby, I have a big farm yard with lots of buildings and room to hide old Ford/Mercury trucks.
I love your sweet 65 Falcon. :-X22

I still plan to come see it all one day. Just as soon as i learn ta speak Canadian Eh!

Your doing fine, bring your 62 and come anytime! I`ve got a 61 Uni Body/460 I bought last fall, not near as nice as your`s tho.

I aint gonna run ya for pink slips or what ever color they are there that's for sure Moe. Hee Hee. My FE is strong but it aint no match for that!

A 390 is more than enough and it`ll pass alot more gas stations than my 460!:-banghead

I was amazed when I went from the 4:11 to the 3:09 gear. She will run freeway speed with a tow and gets reasonable mileage. Still an overdrive Auto is still something I am looking at. But I would never give up the FE for anything but a Y block. She had an I6 and 4 speed factory and that suprized me with all the options she has
