I though about chrome but he said it maybe risky and that the injectors could get contaminated.

Greg has this 427 Tunnel Ram motor in his 67 Shelby GT Coupe.






I need to have a parts sale like Ray!

Guys, I found something perfect for your rail trip...

Railroad Spike Bottle Opener

Add a bit of rustic old-west flair to your home bar with the Railroad Spike Bottle Opener ($19). Hand-forged at 2,400º Fahrenheit from old, reclaimed railroad spikes, each opener is slightly different, but shares the same twisted design and bottle opening claw, with a thin coating of beeswax offering a protective, slightly colored finish.

What was the truck you were looking for? How about a 2001 Ford F250 Super Duty with a 5.4L gas engine. Only thing is its got 160,000 miles and is a crew cab 4x4.

68-75 F250. Preferably with a 390/C6(big plus for a 429 or 460 with a C6), Power Steering, Power Disc Brakes, AC. 4x4 is OK, but 2WD is better, less rotating mass and as get-in-and-drive as possible. The biggie, the reason for the specific years, is I don't want to ever worry about smog and have something that I can work on without any computer crap

I want to make it my DD so the car gets a breather. Probably not the best DD ever, but it will do what I want it to do and it will probably outlast the rest of the cars on the road.

I don't know that I've ever seen a 68-75 F250. I'm sure I did and didn't notice it. My dad had a '78 back in the day. I remember we had a 75 LeSabre land yacht with a 454. But the 454's were gutted for HP by those years.

This month on the 24th, the Tacomobile will be 4 years old. Talk about time flying!

Is mine the oldest one here?

LOL!

Mine will be 3 next month. March 15th I believe... If I would have held onto my 2005 V-6, it would have been 4 on Sunday, as I bought it on Valentine's day! I was single at the time and thought of no better gift to myself than a brand new 2005 Mustang...

Well, since you had it coming and no one is exempt from POTR hazing...

I found a picture of your date from that evening
