In the past I had a 71 f250 that was pretty ruff When I got it. Did the body then added 4" springs and 39.5 swamper. That was powered buy a stock 390 w/4spd.. Also had a Dana44HD front.
Sold that, then a few years later bought a 68 f250. Another mess but a freind had a mint bed for it. Went through that truck, another 390 but automatic. Added power steering/brakes, 2" springs with 35" T/A's. Painted Boxwood green(by choise) Loved that truck. Well went through another change and bought a brand new Lightning in 93. Sold both of the trucks and drove a 92 Nissan Sentra for a year. That got old rear quick. Went to a 94 f150. Needed something better to pull with, sold it and got a 99 superduty diesel, extended w/8' bed. Added Banks full 4" system, stage 3 chip, six gun, AIS filter, 04 wheels w/285 T/A's. That is still my daily driver.
Sold my 68 Mustang and spent the past 3 years building a Cobra replica. FE, 4spd. Fun project, blast to drive, but something still missing which brings me here. I still have the need for an old Ford.
So I just bought a 68 f100 out of Oklahoma. Not here yet but can't wait..
Actually thinking about getting rid of the Cobra to help fund the truck project...And buy the way
