1957 Ford F-250 Project

[Brian_B]

Well, i seen this part of the forum wasn't as lively as others, so i figure sure, why not, i'll post this here.
So far, i have the 1957 F-250
I'm putting a 390 FE in with a 3spd Tranny for now. I have a engine crossmember on the way as well as a Streetmaster Intake. I'm in search of some more FE parts, but the budget is pretty low til this summer. Well, i'll keep you updated, and prolly post up some pictures of the engine swap.

And once again Dustin posts in the wrong forum...... Where did he do that the last time? Hmmm....I can't quite remember....


The F-1 thru F-8 (or whatever) series trucks stopped in 52. Yours is a 57.

I'm just teasing you. You know that. You just wanted to post in this forum!

Keep us updated as you do the work. I know how slow things can go on a tight budget.

What's SAD, brian, is it took you to page 3 to realize it.

 

[Brian_B]

page 3? This is a one page thread. I have it set to the max number of posts per page.

Also, I never look in here because there are no posts. So far we have no members with anything older than a 56.

nana booboo to you too
I noticed it, but thought it nice someone posted anyway. As soon as we get someone in here with an older model we can move it

 

[Brian_B]

You can move it....not me.


Also you have to understand... Dustin made the first ford truck post on NWU under ford cars. I teased him about messing up and it is quoted in his sig over there.

It is my job to tease him.

Oh well, its early enough.

Here are some update pics.

Thanks for the pics. How are things moving along?

 

[klatt_89]

Slowly but surely movin on.

Goods pics Dustin. And btw, the text message you hit me with earlier was the first one I ever got. It took me 15 minutes to figure out what was happening. I must be getting old. lol

 

[Brian_B]

I can't hear on telephones, so text is the only reason I have a cell phone. I am finding out that most people don't have it or don't know how to use it though. Guess you know how to get one and open it now.

 

[mrfixit]

Great pics, Dustin! How's it coming?

 

[slmann]

It's been awhile, have you made anymore progress on the truck?
