Joined with my '76 Ranger - now have a '52 F1

Hey all,
Taking delivery tonight on my '52 F1 tonight-on its way to Michigan from Utah! Thinking of installing my dad's old '53 Merc flathead v8 with maybe a C6 behind it using the kit Speedway sells.

Any thoughts?



Can't wait to get her home!

First time Ford owner and new to vehicles with radiators.

Here's my little truck...



1993 F-350 XLT Crew Cab 4X4 w/ 460ci

Pulling all the trim off and getting the glue and dirt off is first!!!




OFF WITH THE TRIM!!!!!

Hello! I'm Marty and this is my first time on so take that into account if I say something dumb. I just got a 1994 Ford Ranger in okay condition body-wise but I'm having a lot of problems with fuel supply/carburation. Thought at first it might be overheating so I replaced the thermostat, checked the fuel pressure and found it to be only about 20 instead of 35-40 where it should be, so I pulled the gas tank and replaced the fuel filter. Two days later I'm having the same problem again; won't start, no power to accelerate, etc. I'm at a loss for ideas at this point and willing to take offers for a 1994 Ranger. Any takers?

Hello all,
I just recently got a Ford e-150 van, doing all the repairs on my own. I had stumbled across this site while looking for info about my new vehicle, and was quite impressed by the responses, alot of which have saved me time and money.
Looking forward to actually being a part of the threads, and to say thank you to everyone who has posted.

Hi!
My name's Marty Barron and I'm new to this, as you can probably tell. Please bear with me as I learn the Rules and guidelines set down by those who have come before.
I don't, and didn't mean to offend and am sorry if I did. I'll probably see you around. Marty:-
