LOL, I had a bunch of comments and questions but forgot them all looking thru the 15 pages!!
But yeah, super sweet (and some not so much ) trucks here. Makes me glad I still have mine collecting dust for I dunno 3 years now?
Anyway, I just wanna help encourage a build thread for whoever on whatever page with that one truck Unless there is one I haven't found yet because I haven't really looked!
A 72 F-250 Hi-Boy "project" ( that means sitting untouched for 3 or so years)
And a little 94 F-150 Flareside, 7" higher and 35's...
I don't really care about brands Chevy Ford Dodge ...as long as it doesn't sound like two old dudes farting in a coffee can. http://s169.photobucket.com/albums/u223/imabaka70/ Projects listed on the left side
WOOOT!! i passed my mechanics classes. Now working as a mechanic and waiting to go for my ASE certifications.
New shoes for the highboy, need to get a leveling kit for it because the tire will rub a little as it sits. its not on the road yet but will need to do it before i can drive it.
I was dying for a whole truck shot too, then stumbled across one

The engine i found here on fordification from a member that made a video back in november so could hear it run, "you might be a redneck if you start a engine in a tire" in the video section. the drivetrains got new u-joints and seals and has been blasted and painted too. hoping to paint the truck this summer and get it back on the raod and enjoy it a little after the leveling kit is installed
