I am surprised that there isn't more contributing to the chapter but I'd be in the same boat if there were a chapter surrounding my area, I'd likely be it...lol

Hello Rhode Island and Tom, I was at a show Saturday and won Best Ford but it was a 3 way tie and I didn't pick the high card so didn't get the privilege to bring that trophy home but did get this one

Well that's a bummer.... but at least you were the top three. Good Job, well deserved from what I can see.

They don't line up, bought a vintage air sure fit kit for this pickup and didn't want to spend the big bucks on their front runner so they sent a bracket for the compressor and had to order the additional bracket for the steering pump. The pump doesn't fit the bracket because I have a newer style , I also had to buy a 2 groove pulley for the water pump under their recommendation but now can't find a 2 groove pulley for the crank shaft to line up. These parts were considered special order and can't send them back and if I could I'd be out all the shipping charges which would just about equal the cost of the parts so it's cheaper to throw the parts in a corner and walk away. It's been one frustrating day but did find a place that I'm going to give a call too tomorrow which may end up costing me around another thousand bucks but end my misery hopefully...fingers crossed. Thinking I should have put in a Chevy after all..

Yeah. But you get more money on eBay. I do a bunch of swap meets. But sell more trivial or large stuff at them and leave the money parts for eBay.
