This week I finished milling out some 1/2" thick header flanges for my 351W. I plan to graft them on to a set of Hookers for a 351M F150 4wd.

Lets see today I ran about 40 bucks worth of gas thru 'er, and tomorrow I'm planning on a weekend get-a-way, so I'll prolly run about 200 more thru 'er. I love this truck way to much to let it sit. In fact the worse it is weather wise outside the more I wanna be out driving!!https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/p...ictureid=27109

It came out of southern arkansas, and the only rust is surface runs great 4x4 works nice and smooth. Stole it off a kid for 1500. Best part I'm ina small town and there isn't one like it for miles!!!!:-jammin

460/5 02-18-2010 10:18 PM

talk about a steal!! wow. the one im after is a 79 that has D60s with limited slip front and rear, and an IDI diesel in it. the guy wants 4500. im tryin to get my 91 sold to get it...

jamestw1977 02-18-2010 10:22 PM

I was looking at another one when I came aross this beaut, and it was a mess he wanted 2500 for it. After I got this I called just to see if he still had it and he said he sold it got 2300. And I mean that wasn't good for anything but being on the farm. It prolly would of took 1500 just to get her on the road well legally anyway

yeah. the one im lookin at is already a reliable work truck. the guy has a plow on it and uses it fairly often, as he has a commercial plowin business. im a little curious as to the condition of the clutch, but hey, beggars cant be choosers, right? lol.

Redneckryder,
If you want it its all yours but I think its about half gone because of good old New York rust.
