Vacuum advance is primarily used in an effort to improve economy, therefore you won’t hear much about vacuum advance when discussing performance and racing. There is little to no vacuum during wide open throttle which means no vacuum advance any way!A vacuum advance canister provides a way to...

The vacuum advance for the distributor runs off a ported vacuum source from the carb. It does not pull any vacuum at idle but it will at speed and advance the distributor at higher rpm's

I say you make it like this one....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KWo9Vt08P1U&feature=related

I know where one is on FTE

There is more involved in your swap than has been mentioned. Your swap is a little tougher because of your standard trans. Ford never offered a truck with a 460 and standard trans option untill after the mid 80's.Your flywheel and clutch is not going to work on the 460. You also need to know...

I would put the chrome R/T trim , a chrome grill shell and chrome trim around the windshield if it was mine and I had the chrome trim. It looks fine without it but I think it would be awesome with it all...

He has links to photobucket pics. He does show plenty of pics in those links. The main thing that makes me think something is shady with him is his feedback never seems to grow yet he is always selling trucks on ebay. Is a lot of his auctions being ended early? I see a few recent things in his...

Evan I have a black one that you can have. Its in good shape. PM me your info and I'll send it to you. I will never use it.

My truck is a 1979 F350 4x4 Cab and Chassis. It is not a dually. It was basically just a truck sold with no bed.

I have watched this seller for over a year now on ebay. He always has NOS 73-79 parts listed and this SC has been listed by him several times. Ive never seen it meet the reserve till now. He has his number listed in the ad for anyone needing parts for these trucks. Seems to be a good seller from...

That would be a cool tshirt as well. The FTF on the front left breast area and the truck on the back. Whats the site? I wanna get a pic of my truck slinging mud and make a shirt now....

No thats not the guy or truck you're thinking of. This is a nice F350. I keep seeing nice dentsides ads from Washington & Oregon for some reason.

That is the same truck as the guy you are talking about in Mt Airy NC. I talked to him briefly about trading my truck for it back in May. Not sure why the ebay add is listed in IL. but the guy says "hes listing it for a friend" so who knows. Its a sharp truck. Id give him 15 for it if I could...

Its all gravy baby !!! I figured it was something silly like that..

I must be missing something?

Way to go Buck. Your truck does deserve it....................

Ive only seen it on you tube.

Way too much going on for me... This one is more like it for me... http://www.projectbronco.com/Show_Room/Readers_Photos/C-N_Burch/FTrucks/CN_Bruch_03.jpg

What would you all be willing to pay for this one? I want it bad...http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1978-FORD-F150-SHORTBED-4X4-1-OWNER-18-OOO-ACT-MILES-/140479169262?pt=US_Cars_Trucks&hash=item20b53602ee

This was what I started with.....

My dash looks black in the pic but its painted the same as the truck. Suprisingly with the dark tinted windows it doesnt get too hot in the South Florida summers. Oh and thanks Buck. Your interior pics did inspire me some to go that way.

I went with body color on the metal and black everywhere else....

Buck I bought the upper trim from DC and its perfect. Im sure you would be happy with it.

So far so good on my LMC 79 shell. Its been on only 4 months now but it still looks new so far. My only gripe is the price but I needed one so what are ya gonna do? Ive been worried about the chrome peeling and how well they will stand behind thier "lifetime guarentee" but we will see. Im glad...

I saw the answer on another forum. Best of luck to ya and on your other listings...

Thats Scotts truck !!! I wasnt expecting to see that for sale already...

On another forum I read a post about a guy using the seal from a newer model truck and it working much better. It goes on without any glue. I asked the question about what year models would work but got no response. Anybody know anything about this?
