Wow, I wish my junk was as nice as yours! I love that shade of green, looks real nice. What engine is in the truck right now?
That's a nice big ol' merc you have there too, I've always liked those cars.

Looks like a good family of fords. What version of the 4.6 did that come with? I have a good picture of a 6bt swap in a 78/79 pickup. I should ask the guy how many mpg he gets, cause its pretty much his daily driver.

Very nice vehicles. I have a 76 Highboy as well but its more of a beater truck. I also have a nice 77 F-150 that has a fresh green paint job. Welcome to the site.
