The PA Chapter's "Happy New Year" January 2022 Chat and B/S Thread

Welp, here we are. 2022 is 40 minutes from arriving at the time of this writing. With any luck the headaches of 2021 are going to be behind us (not counting on it, though). Now's the time to trudge thru the winter months and get to nicer weather again, which means winter projects and all that good stuff. With that in mind...

Dates to keep in mind for shows in PA in the coming year
Spring Carlisle Swap Meet - April 20-24
Carlisle Ford Nationals - June 3-5
Bloomsburg 4 Wheel Jamboree Series show - July 8-10
Carlisle Truck Nationals - August 5-7
Fall Carlisle Swap Meet - September 28- October 2.

The game plan is to have the 98 back out there this summer at these and other local shows. Maybe something else will join it....?

Anyhow. Happy new year, and you know what to do..

Good morning PA! Coffee is hot and I wish all of you a good and prosperous New Year! I spent New Years day removing the final sheet metal from the '72 and start on the minor fixes to the old 360 today!

So I bought my old and dear friend’s 77 f250 4x4 460 bib block from his widow. I’ve got to get it up to running capability. While already trying to finish my 67 mustang fastback. I am hoping it will extend the affordable lifespan of 2012 f150 crew cab 6.2l 4x4. Mechanically I can deal with up coming challenges. But. I will need an 8’ rear tank straight side bed. Any one know where I can get one to work on while I drive with this bed?
