70's model tuck pix?
 

Can I get everyone with 70's model trucks to post up pix and drivetrain info?

My buddy who bought the '75 short bed off me is trying to sell it. Well, I've now got an '89 Mark VII drivetrain that would be sweet in that truck...

I'm half tempted to buy it back, and drop this fuel injected 302 in it. It needs a lot of body work, but still...

I really like that 70's body style truck.......:lurk:

'79 shortbed 4x4 > *

I still have a running '79 longbed 4x4 parked in a field at my folk's place, but it needs a lot of work. Actually, my '79 is about 2 hours south of closer9.

You've seen it before, but here is Big Nasty.

1979 body on a 1976 F150 4x4 360 4 spd. drivetrain/frame
Looking for a straight/decent 8' box for it.

:( I *almost* bought a 1973 Ford F-150. Regular cab, short bed, 4x4. 75,000 original miles, 4 speed with granny low, freshly rebuilt and bored over 400M. New 6" lift with 35" tires. Tailgate was rusted, but all other body panels were near perfect. They were only asking $2300 too...

But you just had to have a boat right?:lol:

Here's "Christine"

She's still a work in progress but she's gonna be a fun ride.

Here's what she'll look like when I'm done...

MGM?


My Great Aunt and I (2 at the time) totaled my Grandmothers stable with a 76 F-150. I'm a fan of their sturdiness!:D

Check out Fordification.com. Lots of good information there for '67-'72 if that helps.

Hey KSU -- I think you need to enter that into a "World's Ugliest Truck" contest -- you would probably come out the hand's down winner.....:lol:

My first vehicle was a '70 F-100 Custom. 302 and a three-on-the-tree. Swapped it out for a three speed overdrive on the floor and added headers, true duals and cherry bomb header mufflers. Sounded like a big block after that! With the manual fuel pump in that thing you could coast a little ways with the key off and then flip it back on...it'd throw about a two foot flame out both sides of the exhaust! Had a lot of good times in that truck. Don't think I've got any pictures handy of it though. Good 'ol trucks.--DIY

My first was a 69, same setu up only I kept teh original 3 speed and moved it to the floor with a hurst high speed short throw shifter, and had hooker headers with 12" glasspacks monted to the flange and dumped right behind the cab.

I had the back fire down to about a 10mph cost for 2 seconds, flip the key off, floor it, as soon as the pedal hit the floor, hit the ignition. *BAM* people would hit the deck like a gun went off... :lol: I'd do it crusing through McDonlads parking lot on the weekends. (that was part of our cruise route) Ohh hte days of mechanical timining and carburation. Cant do that anymore with todays fuel injection.....

Used to "borrow" dad's 69 Bronco back in HS alot. 302 three on the tree. Man, that truck got alot of looks. No one could understand that it was a manual and the shifter was on the column.

I love that old beast. Even has the vacuum powered wipers:thumbsup:
