Lovely icy fog weather you seem to have to work in, Don........Temps hovering in the 30s?

 

Sweet....don't you love it when things work out?

 

High of 48 today. Not to bad really! It's not fog.............500 feet higher and they had sunshine all day. We are at 2,200 ft and right at the top of a cloud layer.

 

Yes I do! All in all, I think it will be a fairly easy swap..................

 

That is going to look great!

 

Keep posting!

 

It seems to be going according to plan. Great! My brother is coming over Tuesday to do the engine swap in My 65 f100 I hope things go well with that.

 

Shame about the doors - but the shell looks great!

 

How goes the project? You might try to do some body work with it off the frame. Sometimes it can be easier to be able to get in all the little cracks without having a frame in the way.

 

Great looking project there Don.

 

Well............Since Jeff ( oldbrokecowboy) found me a 300-6 for the wifes 67 shortbed, I now have the 460-C6 out of it, hummmmmmmm......

I was thinking I'll take the FE out of the HiBoy and put in the 460! Now I don't have to make up clutch linkage for the panel and it frees up the 427 for a Fairlane. Since the weather is much better now I'm hoping to get the frame in the shop this weekend to start the frame mods and I already have the 460 out, so I should be able to install it in the frame. I've got a Warn overdrive that fits on the back of the c-6, I'm going to see if there's enough room to mount it in front of the T-case. If all goes well I'll post pics next week!

 

Must be nice to have a extra 460 laying around!..........Hmmm, I wonder how much modification would be required to drop one in a Ranger! (302/351w are easy)

 

I hate to rub it in Dave, but I also have a 428, a 428cj, and a 427 Medium Riser Police Interceptor.....................

 

I am not talking to you anymore......humph! LOL!

 

I'm with you Dave
