If anyone wants some inspiration ,here ya go. This was the last truck I built for myself , a 78 SC 4X4 ,then sold it a couple years later. The Black one I built back in 200 , that was a sweet little truck with a 460 in it.

new acquisition

Very nice. Looks to be in great shape. 75 so ... F150? What size powerplant? I notice only 1 fuel tank ...!! I know mine gets 16 mpg at 65 mph. Any faster or slower and my mpg goes down. If I'm doing 55 mph I get 13 mpg. I don't get very far on 1 tank of gas. lol

All the lines look straight. Looks like you found a beauty. Congratulations.

Polished Turd

Got the old turd in new paint Finally! Engine (521) is complete and been on the dyno - results were favorable. New brakes, brake lines, fuel lines all around. Been a good couple months for this Supercab!

Dyno Pulls - Tuned



We got up to 675 ft lbs and 575 hp on the dyno - I hope for 650/525 as set up in the truck

Been working on getting this bought for awhile, it's been in the same family since purchased new.




Ive been familiar with this truck most of my life.





Knowing the family and the history of the truck makes it easy for me to believe it hasn't rolled over.
