The Spokane swap meet hosted by the Early Ford V8 Club is this weekend also, Fri, Sat, & Sun (July 8-10). Ill keep a lookout there. I'm going to try and attend Saturday if the "one who is to be obeyed" takes her eyes off me for a few.

For anyone on the wetside reading this there are still lots of 70s trucks in the P&S over here. Last time I was out there I ran into a fella who was looking for some stuff for a friend over on your side of the hills that said this stuff was just not availabel over there anymore.

The shop is 60X40, problem is it's not insulated so it's downright hot in the summer and freezing in the winter. Whoever built it didn't run water to it either. Keep having to run over to Mamas kitchen sink to wash up (doesn't make her happy). I'm not complaining though as it's better than working outdoors (although the shop is so full I still end up working outdoors it seems). The aforementioned Bronco is pretty beat, no rust in it but the PO liked to take it over the Rubicon and such and trashed the body. Have to hang all new sheetmetal on it. Inside is clean and it's a factory 302/C4, power steering equipped Bronco. I put discs off of a '77 on the front and also installed a '77 9-inch with the heavy duty housing.
