Its FINALLY done!

Hello,

Its been a while since I posted here. A while back now I posted asking about putting an early 429 timing set into a later 460 to increase mileage and power. Thanks to everyone who answered that link.

Well that 460, as I described, was in a 1978 F-150 custom that had been stored for 25 years. We just finished the full restoration after its storage. It runs and drives great and I love it. However, back in February I rolled my commuter car ('07 Focus SES) and am now in a situation were I have to sell this truck to ofset the cost of replacing my main vehicle. Here is a link to some pics I took of the truck about a month ago:

Well thats the scoop. Good luck to everyone who is still working on their own versions of these awesome F-series!

Very nice truck! Congrats on finishing it. Your truck almost looks like a twin to mine!
Mine is about 90% restored and I've lost interest and ran out of money! I've been trying to sell her but no one's buying down here in FL.
Good luck to you!
