Zak that will make one real fine truck. Those wheelwells in the bed are BIG.
Lots of room for some steamrollers under there. Tailgate looks good too.
You scored well grasshopper. Keep the pics coming, we like 'em. TR

Been a long time since I have had the chance to touch it, but i am getting my steering figured out on it to get it up to the house. I just bought a 351w fuel injected with a c6 out of a 87 f250 (which did come with the computer).. so now my questions start on wondering how to go about hooking the computer up in my old truck.. I would like to stay as low cost as possible.. at least for now that is.. thanks in advance guys

Zak,
Get a good manual with all the electrical diagrams in it and study and then study it some more. I wouldn't think that an 87 would be too complicated but who knows for sure. Lay it all out on the ground so that you can dissassemble it one wire at a time.

thanks, I will see what I can come up with then. I'm thinking with it being an early FI it shouldn't be that complicated..

Zak from what I caan recall most of the earlier FI computers only actually need like 3 wires for power to make things work .
