Both have advantages,5.0 has tons of aftermarket parts and easy to build up, a proven performer and cheaper to install,but is old technology.The mod motor is current technology,not as much aftermarket support but still a good bit though.IMO if I could afford it I would go 4v quad cam-300 hp stock an...

I would have to say mine

actually the grey one looks slightly lower.

Looks goor Garbz,stance is perfect,kinda looks like my 63(turd),long low and mostly white.The grill treatment is cool,so subtle most people will never know what was done,thats how I like em.Keep up the good work.

I've got a '66 LWB that needs the rear 9" axle repaired. The drums and brake assemblies are shot. Brake lines are bad as well. What would it take to convert the rear drum brakes to disc brakes? I'm planning on putting disc on the front I-beams as well along with a new master cylinder, etc. Ive...

I learned a few years ago to steer away from anything other than Dennis Carpenters, thats all I ever use now,alot of other vendors are selling bits and pieces of D C's stuff so every now and then you can catch a deal but usually a little higher,if you break down part cost from all the vendors the DC...

Looks good Whitey,wheel tires are right on,never thought an inverted slam would look that cool but it works,I'll take it if you decide you dont want it anymore

yup did it on mine, they look so much cleaner, take away all of the wind noise from the wing window. cleans up the look too Do you have more pics,Ive been considering doing my 63 ,its getting a a/c kit soon so the vent will be useless to me(with mild Texas summers),looks so much cleaner without it....

1980-83 Ford made a light duty F100 that used a 4 1/2" bolt pattern. The rotors use the same bearings and seals as the 73-79 F150 rotors that everyone uses. I don't know FOR SURe that they will interchange but might be an option for you. Unfortunately the caliper location is different on the o...

Looks good Jason,now I regret using a 70 mustang on mine,I like the side exit,might have to copy you,gotta sell the mustang one now.

Welcome and Get some pics up for us ,thats half the fun of being on here.

225 x 60 x 15 on 7" rims - front 275 x 60 x 15 on 8" rims - rear American Racing Rodmasters - closest thing to the old Halibrand Slots without spending about $500 a wheel for the reproductions. Reverse eye mono leafs on the front, I am going to start with pulling 2-3 leaves out of the rea...

WOWW,any more pics of it,somebody has skills.
Dammn ICEMAN now I feel bad for getting pissed when the temp drops below 32,you are the man!

The best is when they tell you the reason the price is ten times what its worth is because it would bring big bux on ebay or barrett-jackson,if you put a little time in it!yet years later it still sits untouched,just a little worse shape. Needs to be an anti-hoarding law in effect for those type of ...

The cheapest ways are ,axle flip gives around 5" drop and a front spring perch flip gives about 3-4" drop,both are easy just depends how much drop you want.You can weld on a new spring pad to your axle top ,cost under $20 or purchase a premade pad that locates off existing pad,cost about $...

Ah hell,I wouldnt kick it out of my driveway,just wouldnt pay that much,if its truly rust free,everything else could be fixed.I agree about dealers though, they are the some of the only people Lawyers will have to defend in the after life (down there). Some of you guys are scarry with the slick know...

Wont work.pre 79 only.80 up were wider and different lengths from pivot point to spring center,would take alot of fab work to make it work.That would be too easy,we cant have that,its got to be difficult to be good for us.

Are you talking about adding air ride to a straight axle truck? if so you would have to do away with your leaf springs and fabricate some sort of radius bars like on a 32 ford ,and fab some sort of panard to keep it in line side to side,never saw it done, but it sounds interesting,would definately b...

Thanks for the input guys,it looks like i will get lower repair panels and sell these 64 doors,never thought about the dip in the body line,too obvious to notice.thanks again.

I have a very nice pair of 64 doors,better than my 63's,does any one know if they will bolt on? seem to remember reading they were different,thanks for the input.

Ive done a few over the years,I try and use 69 and up tanks,hold more gallons.and same dimensions except a little deeper,on my latest i mounted it on top of the frame,they sit pretty close to the ground on a slammed truck,plus I raised the floor for c-notch clearance and had lots of clearance mounte...
