hello everyone. from oklahoma

Post by 67_trickedout »

i have a 67 f100 ranger. my dad had rebuilt these along with mustangs when he was younger. so when he caught me on ebay looking at these trucks i'm guessing he got pretty excited about it so he baught me one for $900 i believe. it still had the 352 in it but the kid that owned it before me wanted to make it a super duper truck and apparently did something wrong. i ended up swapping the motor with a 390. did the radiator support swap. new radiator. new driveshaft. new trans. custom guage cluster. new rims and tires. i have a few wiring issues right now that i just havent gotten around to fixing. the p/s was crap so i'm putting in the manual but cant seem to break it free from the drag link. that's about as far as i have got so far. either next week or the following week i'm ordering some headers, cutouts, and either summit or flows for mufflers. following that will be the infamous "DREAM BEAMS" 3/4 seems right.
