Well here's some pics of my latest toy. 1977 F150 2wd 400bbf. Has a newer transmission in it, Ford 9" rear end, Disc brakes up front, and AC with a york compressor.
The good: It runs and is in pretty good shape for the age and such. Runs pretty good too. Newer tires, all season.
The bad: Valve covers leak of course, and the rear main seal leaks, front calipers are locked up.
Tomorrow it's getting new calipers and front brakes. I've already hot engine flushed the oil twice. The oil in it was nasty as **** when I got it.It had been sitting parked in his driveway since 2007. So I had to take care of that first.
The plan: Get fully tuned up, maybe put a new exhaust on it, sell it is a tow rig to someone. $1000-1500, we'll see when it's ready.
