Welcome to this new month's BS thread. Feel free to express whatever you want (within FTE guidelines of course).

Start fling BS or what have you...

Sorry for taking so long. But, I didn't log into FTE (the first time around today) until around noon. I was busy trolling Facebook, Youtube, CBS.com, & my local Craigslist.

Now, I just sent the People Carrier to the Dodge dealership to fix it's starting problem. Hopefully it is a simple & cheap fix.

Oh, that reminds me, I need to hit Craiglist when I get home, haven't been on there in a few days, and I need some inner fenders for the 67.

It's been a long search. I've either found junk, or they want a million dollars for them. Don, up in Oregon has a set, but it might be really, really expensive to ship them, since they might have to go truck freight.

If you had a dent & were in Indiana. I'd sell you my leftover pieces to Rustoleum after I pulled the axles, leaf springs, NP205, 2BBL Cleveland heads, & a few other parts that I can use for a core. I'd even throw in the title !

Ah. Good plan. I hopefully I can find a bull nose or bricknose supercab F150 or F250 so that way I can do a SAS & have a good truck that I can still find decent parts for. I'm thinking about making an expedition type rig that is also a capable workhorse. It'll also be handy for when chit hits the fan (It might come soon ).

Now that truck I want to see! I'm going to try to fit a 79 dash in my 68 cab. I want the AC vents in the dash, not underneath like the bumps have.

I think it should work. I heard the exact reverse happening.

Good morning from a snowy Fort Wayne. I'm sure that it lower than 10 degrees out. It snowed a lot earlier this morning. As soon as it stops snowing, guess who will shovel it ?
