Capt. Charlie,

Great minds think alike!

Recently sold my 52 P/U. which I owned for 9 years. I loved the truck but don't regret selling it. The work it needed was beyond my limited skills and budget. Used the money to buy a nice 93 F-150.

Sure wish I still had my 49.

2 seater Shelby 427 Cobra - it was available through Ford dealerships, so I think it qualifies.

Man, what an all star list! All of these are great, not much that I can add to it. I do like all Ford trucks, my favs are the 53/56 and the 67/72 with the 73/79 right behind. Can`t forget the Ranger 1/4 tons and the big LN Hiway tractors/gravel trucks. The 65/69,87/93,`99/2005 Mustangs, the 60`s Cyclones, Falcons and Fairlanes. Just about any 50`s/60`s Fords, Mercurys big and small will be good. Doesn`t leave out too much does it?
