Good morning Tiny and Don. And all that follow.
Don, there is a gut on the 61-66 forum that was asking about putting a Caddy engine in a 62 F100. The guy goes by 1962forddude. So I gave him your name.

Morning Allen. I'll go up there and take a look. Got a linky?

My first post on FTE was about that truck, and I almost didn't come back here......

I caught a lot of crap over that post.......................lol

If ford had made a big block front wheel drive I'd have used one, but they don't, so had to go with the caddy........

Sorry it was 1962f100dude. 1962 Ford F100 - potential engine swaps? is the post. He did say the same thing about asking about swapping engines, but his truck has a chevy in it now.

Good morning Oregon and everyone everywhere else. Running a little behind this morning. A little bit of rain, a stall to clean out and for some reason Dad thought he needed to explain and give a lesson on the operation of his new riding lawn mower. Hmmmmmmmmmm????????????????

Morning guys, not much going on, I see that Don now has a functional larger lathe. How about a couple pictures of the completed beast.

Only have this one. Picture is kind of washed out because of the sun behind it. I'll try and take a better one.....

Howdy Rob. I've already done a couple semi driveshafts for a local logger, and have a bunch more stuff lined up for when I have more time.

We've had nothing but cudos for bring it back to life, and the thing will outlast both Harley and I!

Harley and I are in the planning stage to bring the horizontail plainning mill in maybe the first week of Nov. Then we get to do this all over again!
