When bought my CC I promised my wife I would let that project go...
I just got a project for my friend done.With the space I can get the cummins truck back from the barn so I can dismantle it...Kind of sad but a reg cab wont work for my growing family.Hence the CC...

UNFORTUNATELY that is NOT ALL of them....Yea I know,I am insane...It really is a sickness.

But to the task at hand,I am very curious to see what condition the new 7.3 is in.....I hope the foundation with this engine will help make more power down the line and more reliable.Since my truck has 317000mi

Sickness???

50 Plymouth Special Deluxe
61 Ranchero
63 Falcon
64 Falcon
65 Mustang Fastback
68 Buick Skylark GS California Trim
72 Lincoln Continental Town Car
74 Mark IV
76 MGB
80 F250 4WD
81 VW Jetta Diesel
87 Subaru XT coupe 4WD
91 F150 4WD
92 Aerostar

Nothing special except the 65 Mustang Fastback. They all run except for three of them. I don't want to mention the four motorcycles and two boats because I don't want you guys to really think I'm sick.

What's up with all the thermostats? Looks like an original Black CPS. Be sure to hang onto that.
