Like Archie Bunker used to say: Those were the Day's! Now we're older and supposed to be wiser, But to heck with that! I wnna live the life of Riley, just like Sheldon, bike's, truck's women: oops kid on the way, Life is just starting. If it wasn't for my kid's I may have finished my 40. I'm more than happy having the 56, it's bigger and accordind to Jordan " the coolest truck in the world, Go Ford Go!

Well, what the h***, fix it and take a test drive to Kenora, I'll meet yuou there! I don't trust the 86 EEE, all the way to North Bay, My Father in aw drove it to Weslaco Texas 5 yrs ago and I crapped my pant's. Since he gave it to us, when I giv'r she fart's like an old BaBa after cabbage. I figure I'll change the fuel filter 1st, then ck the fuel pressure. I rebuilt the carb 5 yrs ago and he said it worked like a charm. I'm a little more aggresive and get the Fart's out of it like it's starving for fuel. When and If I get it dialed in, I may head out east.

Good to hear from you Morris, I constantly kick myself in the butt for selling my Ranchero, but it's all hind-sight now. Have a good night.

I know all about hind sight, there`s about 5-6 I should have never sold over the years but of course I couldn't keep and maintain them all.
Good nite Grant.

I cant belive you guys had a duster and a demon, I love those both!

I had a 71-72 duster with a 318 that had 340 heads and cam and crank? maybe in it. It was a really cool car but had the bad frame rot and that car was pretty much never going to be road legal again so I sold it.

Im actualy going to get either a duster, or a mustang for my kid, and fix it up for when they turn 16. Hard decision cause I love both the stang and the duster so much!

Interesting that you should mention Demons. A friend of mine has a 1972 Demon 340 4spd that he bought brand new in 1972 but he also has a 1973 340 Demon that needs a complete restoration that he is looking to sell. I'll hook you up if your interested.
