    Three on the tree rebuild problems. Help!

    Hi everybody!I've been learning a lot about this truck lately, and my current maintenance item is to fix the shifter. A spacer had worked its way out from between the shift arms in the column, which wreaked havoc up in the shift collar and flange (7228, 3911).So, I got new spacers...

    What have you done to your FORD today v2

    smilieteaseGot more polishing done yesterday and then helped a friend move into a third story apartment. We had a couple helpers and could not get the couch up around a tight landing/doorway in the middle of the stairway. My friend ended up removing the light fixture (getting zapped in the...

    What have you done to your FORD today v2

    Good news. The broken gas gauge was just a gas-logged float. Ordered a new one.Got the bike rack screwed together. Gotta add a couple shims to keep it from sliding from side to side in the bed, then sand and paint. It looks great in white against the red bed and white cab.

    What Have You Done to Your FORD Today

    ^^^ Funny, this spring I had to jump my friend's <10 year old Honda Accord, with my '81 VW. HeheThanks, you too! Sh*t's clean. Drawing cars sure beats working three times as long for the same money at a fast food place. ;)I haven't even touched my truck today. Gotta get that fuel gauge...

    "You like your kids, love your dog and would get rid of dog and kids to keep your classic car."Like I always say, cars may be expensive to maintain but at least they don't whine when you leave them home alone for awhile. And for the most part, they don't poop where they're not supposed to.

    66 Mercury Build Thread

    This weather keeps screwing everyone over. My friend from Missouri texted me about the shitty weather they're having (thank God he's not in Joplin), and I'm thinking "wow, it's storming down there too??" And now you- I swear the entire continent is under a thunder cloud! :bs: Anywho, keep the...

    Slick Paint Schemes

    Maybe this would help. I usually assume what's in the brochure was officially offered (with some exceptions).1961 Ford Trucks brochure from AUTOLIT on Ebay. You can kind of make out the color breakup as it rounds the rear corners. Interesting that they say the unibody was for "greater...

    Made a computer model of my truck...

    Maybe you guys remember this failed thread. Well, I said screw it and used some old photos. From those and some other reference images (notably a 3rd gen F100 on BaT), I concocted some widened steelies, wrapped them in stretched rubber, mixed well and baked for 7 hours.This is what I want my...
