Replicating the 1979 F150 the Missus and I bought new in 1979

[Albeix]

In 1979 we purchased a 1979 F150 2Wd with the 300 inline six. Always loved that truck so now I am building an updated and uprated version of the same truck.

I put together a build story covering the project over the last 18 months. In order to prevent an overly long post on the forum I put the build story under THIS LINK which will take you to the PDF.

I love the 300. Won't win any races but you can bet em like a mule and they will just keep going and going.
You put a hell of a lot of work into that truck and it's looking great. Congrats

VERY NICE! A lot of work. Does Offenhauser still make intakes for the 300, or was that a survivor?

You can buy offenhauser manifolds for the 300/6 as well as from Clifford. Google both companies.
