I must have died and gone to ford heaven! still new to the internet but have been building hot rod ford pickups since the late 60's. Presently have chopped 35 pu,53 panel.56 big window pu,61 unibody,and 11 67-69 pu's.two of the 67pickup's have been converted to 500ci eldorado front wheel drive. current project is adapter plate to bolt one of my 428cj's to the caddy front wheel drive so i can keep them ford powered!I have been a fabricater all my life. So i enjoy doing the oddball& impossable. Has anybody out there done a caddy swap also?this was one of the easyest swap's I've done.
