At 800k, not many vehicles would be worth repairing. Everything else would be worn out.

Yeah I know what you mean, but if you watch the entire video he puts a motor back together to drop back in there. I think he works on enough powerstrokes he had nearly everything in his shop. It'd be interesting to find out what has all been gone through on it.

Sooo, I've been searching for a hood for my '84 F-150 ever since it got hail damage this summer.



I was kind of frustrated at the lack of aftermarket hoods for it, but I think I've finally found my match last night. I think we were meant for each other.

I like the looks of that hood... just make sure it doesn't funnel water into places you don't want it.

That guy is such a tool when it comes to powerstroke advice.

Happy Tuesday folks.

Win any money Tom? Were you in Grand Forks helping out you buddy?

Thats a nice looking truck. The cowled hood will make it look even better.
