Just a bit north of you in Columbia.
The one i have is currently just a rolling chassis. It is a 73 and dad has owned it since 76 and he went with his boss to pick it up when it was new in 73. It has the unusual 3600 lb dana 60s under it NP 205 transfer NP 435 swiss watch transmission and 360 ci motor. It has 350,000 abusive hard miles on it and when we tore the second body off the rebilt 360 still ran and pulled like a champ. Dads boss used it to tow 15 or so ton pintle hitch trailers with it for its first 90,000 back before diesels were even concidered for pickups. Now i just need to graduate and get some funds to put it back together again.
And a pic from the bed room.
390 block + 428 crank = xThe 360/361 FE motor was actually developed for the Edsel. It is a combination of a 390 block and a 352 crank (4.05" bore X 3.5" stroke) and should last just about 4 ever!

@Greenthorn how'd the lever axe do in the wood? I've used one before and only liked it in ash.

Great story. The FE were some tuff old gals.
I think you'll fit in here. You off-topic with the best. LOL.
The funds, aw yes the fricking funds, yet another disparity amongst this crowd. Find the funds before you find the woman. LOL
The original 360 in that truck went 300,000 or so abusive miserable miles and dad only put another in it cause it was already built and the cab was off the truck. Though whoever built the current one did a heck of a job. They managed to build a 360 that could go oil change to oil change.The 360/361 FE motor was actually developed for the Edsel.

nice pic of Zog dog. looks like he/she is on point.Merry almost Christmas! Still raining and just a scosh below flood stage. Tomorrow might be lake city in the fields if it keeps up. Found one artifact today, managed to wade in a little by standing on a shaky log and snatched out a kids tricycle. Just all sorts of stuff get washed downstream. I got tons more "driftwood" branches and logs to scrounge and cut up once I can navigate back down there. Downstream barricade is still holding barely, upstream is completely torn out..
