I think there is going to be a run on jealousy as soon as some of the members start seeing this thread and that ride of yours.

Got any interior shots?

here is a shot of the inside, it's still on a 6 volt positive ground &

all instruments work. I added an underdash 12v radio and MP3 using a booster/inverter. Just wanted to hear my Blues music while I was cruising!

Chiming in a little late...so Howdy...and I'm definitely jealous. Post as many pics as you have of that rig.

Hi Tim
Just checked out your Gallery, do you still have that 48 F1. Sure is great looking country in Montana !

Yes, I still have it and it's a daily driver even thru the winter. Studded snow tires and 4-500 lbs in the back and I can go just about anywhere I please. If the snow gets too deep or the ice too thick for that, I pull out the tire chains that stay under the seat and keep going.

I did a frame-off rebuild of the truck from 1999-01 and since then it's been from Montana to Ohio and all points inbetween, Colorado, Kansas, Washington State, and into Alberta Canada.

The engine is getting tired - it was a used engine from a Kansas grain truck and now the blow-by is getting bad. She (Wendy - as in "Parts is Parts")needs a little attention but I haven't had time to pull it apart.

Montana is nice! Most of my family lives in Ohio - thus the trip back there in '01. What part of the country do you live in?

Hi Tim
I live in Montreal now but I was raised in Northern Quebec in a litlle Pulp & Paper town called Temiscaming.
Really enjoying my new 3:54 differential, had her (my wife named the truck "Bernice" !) out tonight and kept at 60-65 for quite a while, temp barely nudged from the center, couldn't really keep her above 50 before.
