Did you actually buy this Brian, or are you only flirting with divorce?

Absolutely stunning. Great writeup and excellent workmanship!

I hope you have a safe and enjoyable trip buddy... Tried to reach you via instant messenger a few times recently.. guess you've been busy.

Not a concern for me (My column had a crappy Autozone special mounted on it), but they do have a "Ford Style" column available. I have custom bucket seats. Because they sit a bit higher than the original bench, I decided to go with an aftermarket wheel. Ford Style: The All New Floor Shift ...

I have these headlights, and the heavy duty wiring harness with relays. I've done this kind of thing to other vehicles in the past and have always had great results.

I just spoke to a guy with Cen-Pen Speedshop. That's the parent company for the website Grits mentioned. [url]http://www.buyididitsteeringcolumnsonline.com/?gclid=CIbB8buO_qYCFYHu7QodER7zcg [/url] I asked for a quote for the following parts (I have a 66, but it has the Saginaw gearbox instead of the...

Well, I had a guy at a salvage yard try to charge me $495 for a "rebuilt" 79/PWS/Tilt/Floor shift column. It would have been $295 if I'd had a core to exchange. It didn't help that the guy was a total D-bag to me, trying to tell me that there is "no such thing as a Saginaw gear box in...

I'll take one of those if you can locate one in good shape! Prefer a power steering, tilt column, floor shift unit (probably rarest of the rare).

Will this alternator that you guys mentioned mount up to the brackets I have for my 352? I am also very interested in picking up a 1 wire unit.

Aww you scuffed the pretty bumper valance! Poor twuck! Hehehe Seriously though, looks fun as hell!

Thanks! Great find. I sent an email. Figure if I don't get them, maybe Brian Taylor would, since he lives near Arlington.

I feel your pain brother. City inspector cited my slick as a "Junk" vehicle that I had to either move off my property of hide behind a fence or in a building... I ended up fighting it in court after looking up their own laws and finding a couple loopholes. Essentially they gave me a couple...

Did you guys take a look at the 59 F100 he worked on?

Is this what you are referring to?

Maybe an older N series commercial truck? Isuzu makes a good TD from what I've heard.

I like neat robots... The messy ones are usually just jerks! hehe

O.. just realized.. you said you NEEDED it... so forget that I said about the extratcion kit... Do you care about the alternator? If not... use a cutting wheel along the outside of the tunnel that the bolt runs thru, then either heat the area with a torch, or take a cold chisel and hammer and tap ta...

I have this.. works great. used them MANY times.

I look at it this way... Every manufacturer has build quality issues at one time or another.. no one company is immune to it. they all eat their own BS and drink their own Kool-Aid when it comes to how they think the "best" cars should be made. And just about every manufacturer manages to ...
