I've been a terrible chapter leader. I think most of the active NC member we had have either moved or sold their rigs.

Thanks Ben.Do you have any idea what my 77 would weigh?Do you run reg tags or weighted tags on yours?

If I had to fancy a guess...I'd say around 5k. Since Red mostly sits, I have standard plates.

As long as your not using it commercially, you should be ok with the standard plates. I used mine primarily for work, usually grossing 7k+ so I had to use the weighted plates...

I am still active in the NC chapter, and still have my Ford. I just don't live in NC anymore... :headbang:
 
Hay Ben did you every get a set of headers for red I think.What you been up too?Me been working on my truck.First I changer the oil pan and put a new oil pump,installed new rear main seal,new fuel pump,new timing setand new valve cover gaskets.Doing some welding and fiberglass on the bed.I got a line on a good grill and talked to a guy yesterday that he said he has a good door and headliner for $50 so waiting on pics.Sorry about talking so much.LOL

Good to see ya posting again Tony. I think I was looking for a set of headers for the Bronco. I've been looking used...dunno if I'm too cheap or others think their stuff is gold because I still don't have a set. The exhaust leak is getting worse, and the manifold is cracked...so I'm sure my hand will be forced soon.

Sounds like you're getting a good bit of work done on the truck. And I'm still serious, if you look to sell that rig, if it just becomes too much of a project...or you don't like $4 gas...let me know.
 
I found a set with the gasket and collector for $75 and found the grill with one bad insert for $25.And i have the good insert on my grill.Next thing I want to change on my moter in the intake to a alum and I have a holley to put on it.Then I should get alittle better gas mileage.
