There are many sources for the parts for our trucks - a lot are site sponsors (look at the top of the page)

Dennis Carpenter makes good stuff. I've also ordered from LMC Truck and Jeff's Bronco Graveyard.

Just today I learned of Green Sales Company, Inline Tube and National Parts Depot - always something more to learn.

If it ran, that can be quite an accomplishment - after all, these trucks are 30-40 years old!

You just made me remember...

...Back in the day, when I had my old truck (79 F250 460 C6) with headers and glasspacks, any time I went to pick somebody up, they were always waiting outside. It was because they could "hear me coming from a block away"!

Haha, I'm sure this is the same way... I've had like 5 people ask me what kind of cam that thing has. I just say "none (that I know of), that's just a 40 year old truck motor for ya!"
