    After many months of fixing issues that kept creeping up on My 1959 F100, it's finally on the road, and am cruising in it! I have to dump the 3.89 gears though, not very highway friendly with those

    ...or, consider a T-5 swap. Take a look at John Mummert's web site ( ford-y-block. com ). He has what you would need to do it with a Mustang transmission. -Dave

    I agree with j3harleys, Have Fun! Make changes as you like and afford them!! If changes are in your future that is.
