Right on!   Ford 4x4s Pickups are awesome at blasting the mudholes..  I have to scan some photos, don't have the ones I want in the comp.. Will post a few afterward...

Redman Its good to get an idea of what kind of ride you want before ya start, that way there are less "do overs" later, lol!  I have a bit of Experience with that, most do!

Yeah there are a bunch of hotrodder/truck guys around here,  :salute

lol same here my first Ford was a 47 ford PU 262 Flathead V8 swaped out the cast iron heads and manifold for some Offenhauser Aluminum heads with the Offenhauser Tripower W/ Stomberg 97's with the stock dual points you could really fine tune that Motor to scream, traded it off later for a 69Z

Finally got around to scanning some pics..
Ford or Chevy, Dodge or Jeep, I do em all.. This is my street truck, don't drive it too much anymore, too expensive! The next step is to do a 4inch roof chop, but other projects get in the way, so haven't gotten around to finishing it... Sweet driver tho! Had the F/R bumpers removed and replaced with some very smooth looking roll pans, was super clean/smooth looking. But got a ticket for illegal equipment for that, Bummer! :mad: 

This is from 2001, I built this one for my oldest sons wedding gift.. 460/C6, 9in lockers F/R, 4.11gears, 37in Super swampers. All the hotrod goodies,... Its called the Tweetybird, lol!
