Well I finally got all the wheels painted. I will try to mount the tires tomorrow. The poor Ole' Mule looks pretty pathetic sitting on 3 jack stands and a flat tire.. While waiting for paint to dry, I got bored and looked at some of the things I need to do. The guy I bought the truck off said it has...
I haven't been able to do much with the Ole' Mule due to house and work issues. Wouldn't life be great if all we had to worry about, is playing with our toys... I did score some old school wide wheels off craigslist. I was able to trade the wheels that were on the truck (after I polished them, UGH)....
I bought my 66 a month ago. Drove it on the trailer. Unloaded it and blew a brake line on first test drive. Lucky for me I live in the country and no harm done. You might want to look over the brakes real good. Lost brakes again on mine yesterday. Blew the right front wheel cylinder. Nice looking t...

I dug up some pics of my old 66 ( Dad says it was a 65 ) but it had a 66 grill, so who knows. http://i724.photobucket.com/albums/ww242/GMACK192/66FORD.jpg http://i724.photobucket.com/albums/ww242...

Did you save the side chrome? If so, would you be interes...
I finally had a little time to clean up the truck some. First I cleaned the leaves and trash out of the bed, 2 LARGE bags full. The bed floor is good and solid with some light surface rust. Today I sprayed it down with some bleach and pressure washed the mildew off of it.. along with some of the pai...
Well after a short and VERY WILD ride, I got the old girl home. My Buddy helped me by pulling it up out of the sellers drive way. As we topped the crest of the driveway, I discovered what the term "no brakes" means. Down the hill we went, backwards. Fortunately the guardian angels were on ...
Hey all, new guy here (actually Guy, but friends call me Mack). I am in the process of getting this beauty, hopefully with in the next few weeks. I have been watching it for several years. My girlfriend (she approves) and I were Jeep riding Saturday afternoon and I saw a fellow in the yard. So I pul...
