Wow, you can see the parts in that???:redneck: This is a sweet score---definitely don't run into this model everyday!!!:awesomework:
 
Sweet rig, I just got this '70 250 today. Already scheming on the 4x4 thing, apparently my buddy's sister has a rolling 4x4 chassis she's trying to sell too, same year and everything. Mine's not quite as clean (Cab has a lot of sloppy filler on the roof, kinda scared to strip it off and see what I really have). 360/C6 and a 60 rear, haven't checked what gears yet.

Replaced all the hardware for the factory camper special mirrors and got them on today... holy **** stainless steel hardware is expensive! :wowwow:

What kind of gas milage do you get towing? I get ~7mpg with the buggy on the back.....I only use the primaries and "light foot" it from stops. What speed/RPM do you cruise at? I cruise @ 62 to keep the 460 from being piss rapped and I guess the rpms to be @ about 2800 or 2900
 
I haven't calculated the milage yet. It has 4.10s, so it sounds like 3,000 or so at 60. I should put a tach in it. It uses a quarter tank to haul that from tumwater to the track in Rochester and back at 50 mph,

Edit:
Going by google maps milage was about 7.25.

I yarded the F427 Dual plane intake off of my F-100 and will be swapping it for the single plane streetmaster that this came with. Hope to gain some mileage and low end torque.

RWB is going strong:011: Going to do the D80 swap pretty soon and am thinking hard about freshening up the spare 460 in the garage and tossing that in. I may do a "Slow boat to china" run to Phoenix this fall and want her tip top:redneck:

It would be cheaper to pay a shop to get it to pass or get a waiver than fill that gas guzzling whore:rolleyes: Just saying:flipoff:
