Thanks for the Welcome!

I have a Mocha Frost 92 F350 Extended Cab DRW. 460 and an E40D. Used for trailering cars and transporting engines mostly. Occasional off road use, although it's 2WD and doesn't have Limited-Slip. So far it has a new water pump, timing chain, larger all brass radiator, master cylinder/Brake booster, clear lense headlights, and a brand new OE Ford trailer hitch. Got the truck in April 2007, so far I've put on about 6K.

I even have the original add..


Few pictures...




And the few repairs/fixes/add-ons so far..





Found the trailer hitch at a Ford dealer that was closing, they were liquidating all their NOS inventory. Score...

Very clean looking truck. Love the color. Looks like a sweet deal for 2800 bucks.

Low mileage, too - 460's can last for a long time.

That and the mud covered picture were taken in New Mexico. Rio Rancho just north of Albuquerque to be more exact. My dad lives out there.
