As much as I would LOVE to do that, here is the deal with the Mustang (and the '39 coupe, for that matter). The mustang was willed to us (my 3 older brothers and I) by our mom when she passed away, with 2 stipulations: 1. the mustang will always stay in the family 2. we HAVE to keep it stock. No hot rodding it. Well, I have to stick by those. So, I figure as long as Ford offered it, then it's okay! So, I'm thinking we're gonna go with the Magnum 500's, and a nice set of white lettered tires. Now, If I get a Fairlane, whole different story! Oh, hey, that reminds me, I need to get my hotel booked for cruise night weekend. I knew I kept forgetting something!!

Hi guys, hey does anyone know anything about 76 Highboys? I have a friend in Eastern Colorado that has one with a bad preasure cylinder and wants to know if he can rebuild it. The best price we found was at LMC for $249. w/ $150. core charge. The guy can't get that by the MRS.

It is an expensive rebuild. There are some threads talking about this subject if you do a search for "power assist".
Here is a link I found for rebuilding.

I said heck with the power assist and did the conversion to the newer 78-79 integrated setup you see with the later 78-79 F250 4x4s. A much better system, but requires some fabrication.

Thanks Buck, I did a search using "power cylinder" and it only came up with brakes and something else. I sent him your info and he can do the rebuild himself. That will keep his wife happy.
Geez the weather is coming this way, tornados and all the mess.

Big Honkin' thunderstorms rolled through here a little while ago. I could tell they were going pretty good, I usually can't here them here in the belly of the beast, but I could here them tonight!!
