I know, I know, it's a..

I just couldn't find a Ford around here that was in decent condition, that wasn't priced so high that I would be able to use it for an off roader. So, don't hate me 'cause I bought a chebby. It's got a new crate engine (350), new tires, wheels, steering box and exhaust. It's going to be full camouflage, since I had experience with my Bronco, I've got some killer ideas for a paint scheme. Pictures in gallery, I don't know how to put them here.

Wow, 02, that's either a Jedi mind trick, or magic. Thanks. (even though it's a chebby).

Notice the elipses after potential...lol.

Potential is what the nerd has when going to Prom. NO stickers! lol you could sell the 350 and get yourself a ford engine and adapter for the tranny!

I'm not laughing at the Chevy, just the comment. You can drive whatever you want, it's cool. Besides, it's only a Chevy, no big loss in an off-road environment.

A red RTI ramp, that's pretty good. You know, I've been a FORD guy all my life, but heck, I'm just going to thrash it in the desert and woods. My near mint F-250SD is NOT going to be used for hammering on. '99 with only 35,000. Go ahead and laugh, I do.
