the stock manual one of your 64. I have one that's pretty good shape.

Re: my 64
 

It's coming along great man!

Re: my 64
 

thanks twiggy
ruffrida one of my dads buddies has a few of them
i have two power boxes i think im going to trade one of them for a manual box

Re: my 64
 

your gonna put a manual box on your truck???
do you know if it will bolt up to your frame, since it has been changed to a newer power steering frame section?

Re: my 64
 

does it i was told it would

Re: my 64
 

who told you that?

I'm not sure, I know a power box won't bolt up to the pre-power frame........

Re: my 64
 

i thought it was because it had an indention and an extra hole

Re: my 64
 

when I did the conversion on the '66 I used one existing hole and had to drill the rest, I think...it has been awhile :lol:

Re: my 64
 

What am I missing here? you still have the 64 frame right? and you want to run manual. What was changed in the front that the manual box wouldn't bolt up. Why is it you want to run a manual anyways. Power is the way to go.

Re: my 64
 

If you go back and look in his thread, he has a piece of frame grafted in from a 73-up where the gearbox goes.......

Re: my 64
 

what joe said and in a previous post i said
this truck is for going fast and ill save the comfort for later
if i ever want to change back to power steering i can
i have another steering box, the mount, about three pumps
all i would need is the lines

Re: my 64

Re: my 64

2001 f*rd expedition eddie baur edition recovered

i still have to paint the trim pieces on the sides

Re: my 64
 

im practicing for my drivers ed test i take it in 10 days
ive never been nervous on a test before like i am on this one

Re: my 64
 

remember to relax, most people are much better drivers when they do...or are you talking about the written?

we just picked up a drivers handbook for my oldest....he wants to get a motorcycle permit next year

Re: my 64
 

thanks joe for the encouragement but im taliking about the written
if it was actual driving i would be fine
i had an idea for the motorcycle thing
if i get my motorcycle license im going to find a 250 cc honda, yamaha, whatever with a good title
and im going to cut the vin number off find a harley 883 or 1200 sporster weld the vin number on that bike
take the block to the machine shop get them to machine the vin off and get them to etch the 250cc's vin number on then i can ride it
i think this could be be a tad illegal but what isnt nowdays

Re: my 64
 

:lol:Coming along:metal: How about some pics of how you did you line lock?:uhmk: I want to do some burn outs.:lol:

Re: my 64
 

You'll do fine on the test. It's really a lot of common sense. You shouldn't have a problem! Good Luck

Re: my 64
 

Show em how a line lock works I'm sure thar will impress them.:metal: They'll pass you for sure.:lol:

Re: my 64
 

check put page 8

thanks fo the encouragement. i hope i pass

:lol:

Re: my 64
 

i didnt do anything on the truck today but i got a honda 4 wheeler given to me
it doesnt hav any gears but first and neutral im sure i can figure it out
its a 72 cc and its a 4 speed centrifugal clutch
it runs great and is pretty fast

Re: my 64
 

Looks like you got a pretty nice shop Gage. When you get that thing running Im going to have to drive up there and check it out. What radiator are you using?

Re: my 64
 

thanks
thanks to my dad i can use his shop
it does run
come on up ive been wanting to try out my line lock :burnout:
that would just give me an excuse
the radiator is a griffin 19 x 31 2 row 1'' 3/8 tubes ( i think)
a guy gave it to my dad used to be on a circle track car

Re: my 64
