Wow. Thats a lot.

I've had a pretty good share of Fords over the years;
1968 F-100, in High School
1960 F-100, in High School
1969 F-250
1959 Galaxie 500
1959 Ranchero
1967 Mustang
1983 F-150, probably the best truck I ever owned
1960 F-100, a different one
1997 F-350 powerstroke dually
2000 F-150, company truck
2005 F-150 current company truck
1967 Country Squire wagon parts car
1949F1, current project
1965 Falcon 2dr sedan, wife's driver

I'm probably forgetting one or two. I've had tons of other rides in my day as well. Soem of the off-brands were;
1967 Dodge Charger, High School, silver and black
1966 Plymouth Satellite, right after High School, red
1977 Camaro
1987 GMC 4dr one ton
1993 GMC Suburban
1981 Olds Delta 88
1991 Olds Cutlass Cierra
1972 Caddy, parts car for 49 F1
1974 Caddy Eldorado
1967 Jeepster Commando, probalby be youngest sons truck
1959 Dodge D100 truck, son wants to make it a 4x4
1967 VW Bug, sold not long ago
Mid 80's Blazer, just bought, will hopefully be able to leave it at the lake

There's tons more that have passed through my hands over the years, some of them were parts cars, or never registered. This list also doesn't include motorcylces

Too many cars, too little time

old Mopar fan Randy? I ran a 70 340 Duster..ran high 11s in Alb in street trim back in the early 80s.

Just last night I made a (helluva) deal on a 74 Gold Duster. Body fresh outta a pro shop, straight as can be and smooooth, ready for paint. Beautiful work. AND... with a mild built318 AND a 440 Interceptor motor out of a Fury (I think), both running and ready for me to choose which to slip in when the paint is shot and buffed..thinking I'll drop the 318 in it, and give the 440 a massage, and when it dynos at about 600 hp, THEN I'll give it a home.

That Z28 is SO for sale!

Oy.. yea..sorry.. Fords.... 74 Bronco, 65 Mustang, Trucks in various shapes and sizes..


This current 93 F350 is the best truck I've ever owned, and I have had a few.

I too had the MOPAR bug as a teen. My mom's grocery getter was a 66 Charger, 383 auto. Man that car was fast. I had a 67 Charger with a small block. My car wasn't so quick but since my car was also silver I could go home and sneak mom's car out if I had a race to run....lol

The 66 Plymouth Satellite ran a 383 that had been tweaked a bit, coupled to a 4spd and a posi rear the car got me in all sorts of trouble with the law. Just to keep this all on topic, the 1960 F-100 I had was a heck of a project, My brother had rolled a 75 F-150 4x4 so we were transferring all the parts to the 60. We had the engine, trans, transfer case, and rear axle swapped in but hadn't go around to installind the front axle. The little light truck was danged quick! I bit slow shifting with the truck 4spd but I sure suprised alot of people with it.
