Hello everyone, my name is James and I live in Evanston Wyo. I own a 1976 F250 with 390, High pinion front diff with twin piston disks, np435 tranny, np205 transfercase. Engine is stock with Hooker headers and 2 and half dual exaust. This is my third highboy and I won't sell this one FOR NO REASON!!!! I drive my truck every chance I get, right now my 2004 Turbo JUNK jetta is broke down, so I drive the old girl everyday. I look forward to chatting with you all.

Ok so I own a VW jetta, I also own a 79 bronco but I am almost certian no one with there old fords can afford to drive them everyday or use's them for there primary transpertation. Fortunatley for me I own a few dents that are reliable when the newer computerized Vw decides to start acting up. My current wife would not get into or want to be seen in either of my old fords up until she had to walk home a few time after working and being on her feet for 10 hours, NOW SHE LOVES THE DENT'S AND WANTS MY DAMN BRONCO- GO FIGURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
