'nother danged okie!!
Yup, that's raght, 'nother danged okie. y'all don't get too worked up, I don't have the best lookin bumpside around, but I love it. the wife has the camera, so no pics available yet. but here's the lowdown:
'68 F-100 Ranger LWB, nothing special other than it's a bumpside.
rebuilt (little better than stock) 360 with Ede perf 390 intake, slightly larger valves, higher compression pistons, pertronix ignitor, '76 power disk brakes/front suspension, carter 650 CFM carb.....and alot of dreams.
some plans....
get it lowered, possibly get an overdrive tranny, 373 gears with posi (or traclock, or whatever you guys feel like calling a limited slip diff), 18"wheels, orange paint with cream interior, hidden receiver behind a mar-k rear pan and tailgate cover, possibly some custom rocker panel work (saw this on overhaulin and thought it'd be pretty cool), then the other usual stuff power windows, locks, A/C, stereo, underbed tank, I may even throw in some custom tail light, and side marker work, just for that added flair.
