That could be what I am asking myself after the winter, but I kind of liked it.

Now you need to buy that crew cab sitting next to it and put it on your frame. Fun times ahead

He actually has one that was put on a regular cab frame. Only problem is it was rolled and not much good.

Never ask your self the question "I bought this?" lol. That will lead you down a miserable road. I done learned years ago that I might not get a truck done as fast as I want but I will slowly keep working at it as money and time allows and eventually it will get done.Gotta keep them ole Fords going to keep the chebbies from taking over. In my area it seems like everybody is on the chebbie kick. And I have found that the top reason is, they are cheaper to work on. They are cheaper for a reason, haha!

It's going to be a long road, but seeing it progress should be fun. The only problem is I also got myself a 66 Mercury at the same time.

It's a 4spd with I believe a 360. Could be wrong could be right. I'll start doing a little more research once I get it home.
