Well if I remember right here is my last late night Craigslist run. All in all it involved a trip to Kansas city, a cell phone bidding war, a sketchy bridge crossing, a big bon fire surrounded by about 10 drunks that help load it all. And about got stuck in the guys field and then followed up by Taco bell drive thru at 04:00.

 

LOL... not a bad haul!
I'm glad you lived to tell the story!

 

Thats sounds like a good time in my book, anything that can lead to a good story down the road.

 

The Craigslist "run" stories I could tell...... but that one is the most memorable. I was a Craigslist-aholic at one time. I mean BAD, so now I do not have to go to the "meeting's" anymore. lol Ever been to these sites?

Armslist.com https://www.armslist.com/

Gunlistings.org https://www.gunlistings.org/

I use to use Search-tempest to search my home state and all states around me for 1973-79 Ford trucks/pieces/parts/parts trucks and 78/79 Bronco's.

 

Done some lookin on armslist in the past but never gunlistings, im a fan of gunbroker and gunsamerica.com budsgunsupply is an old friend also

Please do not shoot...I'm just asking out of curiosity. Has anyone put a 5.3L or LS in a 78/79 f150 or bronco?

 

There was a guy, but I think someone shot him.

 

Lol. Touche'. I had to ask I am hearing alot of guys swearing by them for a cheap setup to go mobile quick. Thanks for the heads up lol.

And he was from Kentucky too.....I have not put a chebby anything in my Fords. Except for a number of chebby drivers and gave them a ride......wait for it.................... cause they were broke down.

Do you hear that sound? Sounds like ol Henry Ford rolling over in his grave and trying to get out and come give a whooping or maybe he is just reloading. lol
I see car folks put a chebby motor in a 32 or 35 Fords all the time. Not that it is a good idea IMO, but with them being chebby motors you have to have cheap parts available.

 

Lol. Understood.

 

JacobJ put a 5.3 in his highboy.

What is up with the series of holes in the side of the hood of this truck?

 

I believe that is called MAF, or Mass-Air-Flow.
