Hey everyone...I'm new here and wanted to say hello to my fellow Ford fanatics. I just purchased a '76 F250 with a 390 and a 4-speed. It has 160,000 miles on it and the motor is beyond tired. It is burning serious oil, leaking oil and generally running horribly. I paid $1000 for the truck so I expected this. I am not tremendously mechanically inclinded so I wanted to ask everyone here the easiest/most reasonably priced way to get the motor rebuilt. I would need the shop to do everything from removing the motor to rebuilding it to putting it back in. What is a ballpark figure for the total cost of this? I've heard blue oval performance is a great shop. Please help me out if you can!
