another ford for me

bought a 1976 f-100 from sask surplus. it comes from candle lake. i used to drive it when i worked up there. it is in pretty good shape so i will use the body for my 4x4. it is a 360 4 speed, baby blue custom with no power steering or brakes. from what i remember, it use to do good burnouts (kids eh).

That was good enough, you may have gotten it cheap or lost it. Hard to say with a bid. I was tempted to bid $2,000 on the 92 Mustang LX 5.0 at SGI but though it won`t go that high as the last one I got it for $1,500 plus taxes.

Wow if you have a 78 shortbox you had better definatly start on it soon, those shortboxes in the late 70's are really sharp looking.
