Somebody went a little crazy with the duct and electrical tape, huh?

Nice find! Love the brush guard / push bars! Looks like it's ready to do battle in a Mad Max movie...

Exactly what I was thinking.

Looks like a nice looking project truck, congrats!

no worries about the stray deer in the road either.

It sure has a big enough cattle pusher on it. It's going soon.

What's that white stuff? Looks like you had a grits storm. LOL.
Wonder if some enterprising "Slickster" could use that emblem on the seat to make a die or pattern.

Good looking project! the seat emblem is new on me very tastefull tho but the ROO BAR would get bent back if you hit a big red,if its only bolted to the bumper bar.

ya know, to me, that fuel pump looks like it's upside down.... Just me talkin, but I've NEVER seen a FP oriented like that.... I suppose it could work either way.... MAYBE. Seems the lever would be all wrong like that...

Is that something specific to (those) engines?

Any fuel pump I have ever seen (ON ANYTHING) has the filter/settling bowl/Bottom on the bottom...

I did a couple of modifications today. I cut off the big bumpers ends that went along the box sides & toke of the hub caps that were on the white spokes. There was no antifreeze in engine when it came froze solid pushed out 1 freeze plug. Hope thats all it did to it. It ran to get it on the carrier I just rolled it off and pushed it inside.

geez, I hope the freeze plugs did what they're supposed to do... They'll probably ALL Leak when it thaws out....

hopefully the lack of anti-corrosion from the anti freeze didn't also cause your water pump impeller and such to rot off...

Tom did you notice that the lights and wiper switches are reversed? Also looks like they have the ignition switch rotated 90 degrees.

Posted: **December 10, 2007, 10:47 pm**

Yes there is lots of PO issues to take care of. Under the hood is a real mess.

Posted: **December 10, 2007, 11:50 pm**

haha I think you better look into proper orientaation of the F.P. it looks wrong!!!

and the ign switch flopped over, and wiper and Headlight switches mixed up.... HEH?

Truck looks pretty good Tom. What are your engine and drivetrain plans for it? Nice to see another good straight slick go to a good home. Good luck

Looks like it will be fun to play with.

Little Armorall and she's good to go

In light of some comments about the position of the light and wiper knobs, is this not correct? I have my lights first and then the wipers, does this mean I have them backward? Would hate to make such a critical error on my truck!

Hoofbeat I have a early 90's Lincoln that has a 302efi w/aod trans that looks like it's going to give to the project. I was going to run the 6cyl 3speed till it froze up.
