Can't believe it's been a year since I've posted here last. It's been a busy one. The Army Reserves likes to take and take and take while my wife...
Haven't been on here in awhile. Truck has a line lock now. Pulled the carb for jet extensions, new floats, and re-bodied with a Holley HP DP. I...
A few photos from the big car show at Ocean City, MD this year. Went tandem with the old man and his '38 pickup. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...

I'm on spring break from work, so I've been working around the house doing yard work and finally disposing of construction material that's been...
Finishing up the fueling today and starting to look into amassing parts to rebuild the Dana 60.2. I've never messed with a dana 60 before, so I'm...
Made some progress today on the new fueling system. Made all the fittings and lines, mocked up the fuel return fitting in the filler neck. I plan...
You have completely missed the point of the comment. He's saying that the guy hoarded the stuff for so long it turned into scrap.
So at some point we just have to let it go. This is a hoarding mentality. I'm not saying we need to give it away, but when we're selling something...
Top Youtube comment. I agree 100%. [ATTACH]
It's amazing how valuable a quality hardware store is. I didn't know until I walked into an ACE hardware in central Texas. My brain pretty much...
My current project is 24 years older than me (66 F100). I'M A BABYYYYYYYY.
Worked on the truck yesterday in my frigid garage. Gosh, I miss the mild Texas winter. Got the Holley blue pump mounted up to the frame and began...
With the Fairlane sold I've got the truck stashed in my garage just in time because we've gotten some pretty decent snow the past couple of weeks...
Holy smokes! Lol! Nice lookin rig!
Sold the Fairlane last week. Bummed to see it go, but nice to have a little project cash. New owner seemed pretty stoked, so that makes me glad to...
That tow truck is pretty cool too!
Curious as to why I’m getting notifications my posts are being deleted stating “Cut off is 1965” when this body style began in 61?
WEEEEELP F100 update time. I am officially back in Maryland. Drove the ol Rust Tractor a good 1500+ miles with only a minor hiccup in Waco when...

Welp, someone let all the smoke out of my clutch and I couldn't figure out how to get it back in. I had a Centerforce dual friction diaphragm...
Well I'll be honest, the first pass I didn't realize that the local Texas track ran 1/4 mile on Friday nights as all the times I've gone and...
I mean, they all get me pretty high so I really don't have a preference. o_O
Update on the truck; Took it to the track! I picked up a set of M/T radial Bracket Pro slicks and mounted them on some 15x8 steelies. Only got 2...
The body style was introduced prior.
A quick update. I've been driving the truck about 4 or 5 days a week. I'm extremely pleased at how well it drives, it's a total blast. I've got...
I know my total timing is all out of wack right now. The distributor is a MSD unit with wonky advance springs in it. I've ordered a new set of...
Got the wideband O2 sensor hooked up which confirmed what I could read from the plugs and smell, the motor's running pig rich at cruise and WOT....
lol. Honestly, I'm just happy that I cut the plate straight.
