New from Spokane Washington

Post by jcolville »

Hey everyone...John here in Spokane. I found this site from a link on ebay while I was looking for parts. I uploaded some pics..here is the link:

http://www.fordification.com/galleries/ ... ?pos=-5466

My truck is a 1972 F100. Got it when I was 15 yo. so I have had it for almost 20 years now. Originally it came from North Dakota. It was bought new by the Montana/Dakota utilities company. I pretty much did a ground up on it. 302cu 300 hp. Motor built by myself and Howard Green of Howard Green racing motors in Spokane. 302 Cu 60 over, balanced, Edelbrok intake and carb. Isky cam, Mallory unilite ign and coil. Headman headers into 3.5" and flowmasters that dump under the bed.


If anyone has a black dash pad they want to get rid of please please let me know. Thanks!

Better line up for that one. They're pretty hard to come by in good condition, and go for a pretty penny when they do show up!

Welcome to the site, but are you sure you're from Spokane, (with that name :lol: )

My Dad spent a few years in Colville, and I still visit his friends there every other year or so fishing on the Little Pond Oreille River. 8)

Oh, and that's a very sharp looking truck! :thup:

Welcome from Florida! It's encouraging to see that a bump can be around that long and then end up looking that good! :fr:

yeah yeah, I know, it's not spelled how it sounds. :doh:

pretty good fishing regardless. :D

My guess on the hoses is your windshield washer lines. Looks like they are missing from the firewall.
