66 Ford F-100

302 HO from a mustang, rebuilt 10k ago with a mild cam, heads were lightly milled. Eldebrock upper and lower intake manifolds and 4-barrel

Original 3-spd maunal and rear end.

Cab has been extended 6 inches, bed shortend 6 inches, seats/bench from a late 80's nissan truck.





82 with fairing, rejetted, 83 turbo seca fork and brakes coming whenver I acquire the rest of the parts, and she stops breaking long enough to be in the garage for an upgrade instead of a repair.

not bad for a ford ;D  i had a 78 f250 w/ 460 bored .60 over, extreme cam, headers, you know, all the stuff that just makes driving more fun and more expensive. it had buckets out of a blazer and the center concole. it was nice having the comfort of a new truck with the looks of a old one. they really turn heads when done right. plus makes it so much nicer driving it every day.

well, that is decent-- still waiting to see squid's mopar,, he was frame upping it last we talked- but the family thing has him now, will have to see where the mopar goes

  i guess my old talledega torino could have been a contender,, but just flat could not afford to fix it all back up after my brother tried to remove a garden wall with it .my dad bought it new in 1969, had the 427 ,narrow rear end, rolled fender panels and double rear bumper mods(one rear bumper in back, second was clipped and weld,mounted to the front). had the racing stripe, but all of that was junk after the bricks stopped falling- only thing not ruined was the engine,which i had put into a 68 cougar body, and sold for college money.
keep your bike running,your beer cold ,and your passport handy.all are like money in the bank .

I have a 1953 Chevrolet 3100 in the garage.... Limited rust, complete, just waiting to be restored. As time and money go, it will probably be somewhere around the 100the anniversary of the truck.

I love all muscle cars but I'm partial to GM :)

The 442 is a great car, friend had a medium blue 70 hardtop with, I believe a 455.
