My previous post was deleted since it sounded like a ad. I purchased a 66 F350 a few months ago and haven't done much with the truck since I got it home. I found a set of 66 manuals on auction and would really like a manual for the 64 that I picked up this past Monday. If anyone has a need for the 66 manuals, and knows where I can find a 64 manual (I don't want to pay for another one since the 66 cost so much to start) I'd really appreciate it.

what do you want for that set of 66 ford shop manuals? thanks.jim.

 

I don't think we should display this info here, Email me and we can discuss particulars, All I really want is a 64 manual.

Krosati,
You very well may have to sell your '66 manual(s) and use the cash for a '64 manual. Ken sells them here, or you can get them on Ebay as well...there is a reprinted one for auction on Ebay right now....

Gene, I was refering to a trade with someone for a 64 manual. I would rather trade a set worth $75 than spend another $50 for a book I need. In this hobby, every penny saved is a penny put into the truck.

Any takers?

 

Made the swap for the manuals. thanks for the help

 

Good for you!!

If you'd like to see my truck up close & personal, I'll be in that general area this weekend! Our club is going out to Wasington on the brazos this weekend. How long we'll be out there I have no idea, I'll find out a little more info tomorrow night. Give me a shout.

Hotrod, I read your post friday at work but couldn't post (work rules) I was planning to go after reading your email. Wife made other plans for me. I had to re grade my backyard this weekend instead. Not as much fun as looking at cool trucks but I did it anyway

 

Ouch, I know that must have disappointed you greatly. Don't worry though, all of the vehicles that went (classics that is) were mostly FORDS! I didn't realize it until we had made it to Navasota. In our line we had a 1963 Galaxie convertible, an early Ford pickup (hot rodded), My truck, a ****** wagon (I guess that's what it was), a 1965-66 T-bird, and a 56 T-bird.

It was great, you couldn't imagine the amount of looks we got going up there. I was actually surprised my truck made it from Crosby, Tx to Washington on the brazos on (get this) 1/2 a tank of gas! I figure with the 390 that's not bad.

Sounds like a good time was had by all!
I guess I'll have to make up for the missed weekend with the truck by spending some money on it. I ordered the Pertronix electronic ignition Monday. I should have it in on Wednesday.
Anybody have any negative coments on this upgrade? I'd like to hear themsince all I've heard are good tings so far.
