Yeah, the 66 Toronado went away so I feel compelled to perpetuate my collection/investments.
A couple months back I bought a 58 and a 60, both long beds. Plans were to get the 60 running for a patined shop truck, do it on the cheap with a drivetrain I already have. The long 58 is a parts truck anyway but does have a pretty solid cab. So now I have a shortbed, might take a wee bit more time on it so I can paint it. No plans yet if the 223 stays or not. I'd like to find a late 90s 4.6 5 speed F-150 for a donor. And also do the Crown Vic front stub, the older version, not the cast aluminum cross member like everyone on here is doing.
