2013 Utah BS Thread

Thought I would start one of these, not much action here on the Utah forum but why not try, right?

Anyhow, last week I picked up a '91 F250 IDIT and ZF5.
Been working on it almost everyday, getting it cleaned up, and fixing all the little things that were overlooked for years by the previous owner.

How much longer til she's ready for the road?

I picked up a house last fall, and been working on it ever since. Not as much fun as working on the truck though.

I have been driving it, she passed safety no trouble at all, just needed a new turn signal switch.
Just redid the fuel lines, ignition cylinder was sticking, glow plugs and relay, just alot of maintenance items.

Where's your house? The house is definitely not as fun to work on, but the wife likes it when I work on the house rather than in the garage!

Sounds like a good deal on the truck.

I'm down near Panguitch. I spent this weekend doing equal time in the house(drywall finishing), and the garage(new attic access ladder, and garage door opener).

I'm renovating the entire upper floor, so a little garage time keeps me somewhat sane.

The 088, although when/if I get head studs I will probably do HX35 or something similar.
