Things I need to do:

Swap in a standard transmission (watching one on e-bay right now), replace the drivers side front fender (have a new replacement fender just need to get it painted and put on), and some other minor stuff...

Current and future MODS:

Custom rear suspension, Rear dana 60 with disk brakes, 351 Windsor bored and stroked out to 408 cu in. (yet to come, have the crank, rods and pistons), Dana 44 Heavy Duty front axle swap, standard transmission swap (looking at one on e-bay right now), and too many other things to mention.

Needs: Engine rebuit, C6 rebuilt (then everything will be rebuilt!), drivers side door replaced (have one from a junkyard, just have to get the inside of it painted then install it), some body work and paint to finish it off. Oh yeah need to build a flatbed as well...



1976 F-250 4x4 with 360 cu in. engine and std transmission:

Mods: None yet. This will be my project AFTER I finish my current ones.

I've spent the last 10 years on and off (whenever time and money allow) building the car. I have a photo album full of pics of the work, starting when I still lived in an apartment before I bought my house.






I'm ordering the new upholstery this winter for the front buckets, then get it appraised and on the road in the spring.
I've owned this car since I was 17 back in the spring of 80.
