junk under the hood!
you know youve got it, lets hear about what kindof junk you have under your hood, i'm talking about on the sides in those channels when you lift it up. i have some washers, bolts, a rusted philips head screwdriver, a flat one, (for idle and hose clamps) as well as a oil, tranny, and power steering fluid soaked rag sitting near the bracket where most people have a jack.

Y'all knew of course that Ford offered an optional in cab TOOL BOX for 1969/72's, right?
When this was factory installed, the underbed 25 gallon auxillary tank was a mandatory option, because the in cab tool box took the place of the in cab fuel tank.

Good suggestion on taking the 5 grand back! assuming you figure out the method to travel time,one would think you would have a few options on your luggage,or maybe it will be like airtravel is getting. travel back to 1972 will run you $125,if you want to wear clothes,its $5 per piece,luggage costs $20 for first checked bag,$30 for each after that,probably pay for peanuts/cocktails,too
