I'm always looking for a mid 70's Lincoln Continental or Mercury Marquis to park and make a project out of it in the near future. Fuel is only going up in price. Soon I'll need a super fuel efficient car to use a commuter. What else to use but a 20ft long 5000lbs car? 
I'd drop a diesel in it though.... Try and get at least 35mpg out of it.

Ah the memories of a bed full of dirt. About 20 years ago we had to fill in the backyard for a above ground pool to be level. I used my 84 F250 and few friends went digging. about 15 to 20 loads(forgotten due to age...) later we were done.
5500 lbs of dirt...... you had!! I know I over loaded Ole Blue Mule for sure! But she did the work and never complained. Too bad in the "dark ages" we had no camera like now days to take photos.
Well not its time to load up the 49 Cub again. This time more photos to come on how we load it.

Ironic "loaded" picture.... Two F150 bucket seats in an Audi A4....
Footnote - Removing a seat from an Audi triggers the AirBag idiot light, which can only be re-set by a VW/Audi-specific scan tool.
A little more on topic - a half yard of Q.P. crushed stone, which made me realize why a F150 is only rated at a half-ton (I'm about 30% overloaded here)

02 F250 V10 hauling in the old bed off our 89 F350 to be 4x4 converted (one of these days)

This is how my 88 F150 sits as of right now till I get the rear tank in the cab fairing is off now changed my mind on what I want:
Unfortunately not many pics of the 88 F150, 89 F250, 89 F350 running as they aren't running yet.
