New Kid, Old truck. ^-^

Post by VeeFlames187 »

Well Im new here to fordification, and so far its pretty cool. Just got myself a 1967 F-250 in wich the motor was bad so I dropped in a 429 out of a Mercury Marquis,(The mercury Marquis motor was said to have the same HP range as the old Boss Mustangs but the car itself had near twice the weight.),but I figured Id say hi and properly introduce myself. Names Phil Or Vee wich ever ya prefer. ^-^
I figured Id also show a few Pics of my 67.
This one is the day I bought it towed it home with the lil red escort next to it.

The 429 motor nestled in its new home.

And a quick way to remove the Graffity. (and yes thats me up on the roof)

That truck should go down the road nicely with all those cubic inches. :evil:

Don't get nervous, but I suggest you do a search about "The '67 curse". :wink:
It's not nessesarily a bad thing. I know first hand. :D
