Hi everyone, I'm Mike. Just picked up a 1979 F150, 351M, NP435 4 spd. This truck has a good, production type steel flatbed with headache rack. I've always wanted a 1/2 ton with a flatbed. Time to get to work. I'll need One of Everything!

I've had a couple of 79's. F150 and Bronco, both with 351W's & C6's, but they didn't require much work. This new project has solid body, frame, and drive train. But the motor is running a bit rough and there are wiring issues. There are some obligatory leaks, which I like to call a "Non-Reciprocating Fluid Flush System". I should have that TM'd.
