Was directed to this site via the HAMB....

Although I've had a 34 & 46 Ford p/u in the past.....this last summer I ran across a 1962 Ford UNI........

Once I find out how to upload a pic I'll do it.

It's dropped & runs a 352PI with a C6.

Kewl site - I'll try and contribute.

Welcome to the group. I know I speak for all of us when I say we're glad to have you.
How are things in beautiful north Georgia?
I graduated from Albany years ago.
Can't wait to see the Uni. If I can help on the straight axle, just let me know.

Thanks for the well wishing.......

Yes my UNI is a daily driver. When I need it.

I'm trying to add a pic now.........as soon as I figure it out it'll be up on the board.

Georgia's a little cold & rainey today but the weekend should be jam up.....as usual.

Could someone pm me or email me at regan1008@bellsouth.net & direct me to add a picture to this post - I'm not the best puter guy...

SWEET!! truck How did you get the stance that low?

62 UNI · Post by **62 UNI** » February 1, 2007, 10:30 pm

Axle flip, blocks & less springs in the rear.......flip dearched front spring in the front.

Sway bars front & rear.....

Handles decent........I'm installing 2 degree shims under the front axle to try & correct a bit of the wandering.....we'll see.

I'm also in the process of adding Peterbilt cab air bags on the rear to assist in a softer ride & more load capacity.

Thanks for the props.

Welcome aboard.

Nice looking truck, looks sweet!

I bet that bike doesn't corner very well while pedaling, does it?

The bikes a bit of a straight line item.......it does corner but I need as much room as I do for the UNI......

Thanks.

Nice Uni! Love the stance.

Bike is cool too, but how do you ride it? Looks to be something for a very long legged and long armed person.

Thanks for the props on the uni......

The bike frame was made by a friend in cally......it's a challange at first to ride but....easily mastered. I might replace the bars with some hangers to sit a bit more upright.

As for the uni........

A/C, 96 Taho blk. lthr buckets, new exhaust, some dynamat & a radio of sorts......
