Wow John, it's finally gone...
Glad to hear you have one less thing to stress you out, and I hope you find what you're looking for!
Ever think about an Excursion? I happen to know where you might find a great deal on one.

Very cool Martin!!
I had a '66 F-100 with 3-53 Detroit. It had a 3-speed overdrive manual transmission, but it kept breaking, so I put an Allison automatic in it. Well, after that, the rearend broke, so I guess the manual was breaking before the rear; and then when I added the auto, the rear became the "weak link".
MAN!! I wish I still had that truck. That was in '90/'91, I had just entered the Navy, was young, broke and needed a vehicle, so it was sold at auction to get a more "modern/reliable" vehicle. I regret it today, but had no choice back then!
