Exclamation Another Truck???!!!!

I got to stay away from that Craigslist! Just bought a 89 F150 longbed with the 300 six, and a 5 speed. I am going to use the tranny, clutch assembly, and bell housing in my 72, and store the 300 six just so I can have a matched pair to look at.

The 72 is too heavy to get good gas mileage, but I am hoping to get 18 to 20 MPG.

Does anyone need any of the other peices?

btw, just tried the seat out of the 87 in my 59. It fit, and my rear end is going to smile when I drive it! It must have 8" of foam.

So you're keeping the '72 after all? Good! I guess I better pull the smallblock engine perches off of mine, eh?!

As for your rear end smiling, thanks for the visual but that's something we really don't need to see...
