My '79 F-150 4x4

[mm_0_mm]

Picked up this little jewel a fews years ago from a guy who pulled a u-haul trailer from California (rust-free!) to Topeka. Original 400 had a broken head. He disassembled it and couldn't get it back together.

I bought it (for $500.00) and towed it home to KC. Dad had an extra head to get it running again. Since then I have swapped in a 460. sold the running 400 for $200, sold the hitch for $150, sold the grille guard for $50...so right now I have around $100 in it. My plan is to do a frame-off resto some day. I just parted out my 77 TA 455 4 speed to get some starting funds!

Looks like a good base to start a project with. That paint combo is killer with a fresh coat.
