Good work Jeff! Miss you buddy!

JRANGER · 08-04-2014, 10:03 PM

Thanks! Miss you too brother!

**thelonerife** · 08-04-2014, 11:48 PM

Looks good Jeff!

JRANGER · 08-05-2014, 08:43 PM

Thanks chuck!

cubber · 08-07-2014, 07:39 PM

Looks much better!

JRANGER · 08-09-2014, 09:05 AM

ahh the joys....Come to find out the cab of the truck was not straight by over 1/2". Still cant get the hood alligned but its closer and also found out the TH400 down shift kick down switch is no where to be found.....these people ugh

JRANGER · 08-14-2014, 08:52 AM

Come to find out the transmission pan's bolt were not tighten properly. They were lose and are now torqued properly. In doing so it seems the truck has more power and will even spin the tires a bit now....Hopefully this will resolve the leaking as well

cubber · 08-16-2014, 10:33 PM

good!

JRANGER · 08-19-2014, 01:36 PM

Well, unless something crazy happens. I just sold her...Now to find another one

flashed · 08-19-2014, 04:49 PM

I hope the new owner joins us on here so we can keep up with her.

JRANGER · 08-19-2014, 05:11 PM

Nice guy, he was about it being original. So he was a good guy to deal with.

**thelonerife** · 08-19-2014, 09:33 PM

Congrats!

Rusbuilt · 08-21-2014, 07:23 AM

heh

JRANGER · 08-25-2014, 12:21 AM

Yup, its now official. Got two fords

66 F100 I6, 4:10 rear, power Steering, and disc brakes. Lots of new parts etc etc

Gotta do some cab metal as usual though

Floors and front cab supports but its pretty sound and the previous owner apparently had fallen on hard times. After buying it she said they had put 7k in her....I felt kinda bad she took such a loss

flashed · 08-25-2014, 12:14 PM

Even old Fords need a little lovin ,I like it .

cubber · 08-25-2014, 07:57 PM

short bed?

JRANGER · 08-25-2014, 11:29 PM

long bed

**mattfranklin** · 10-05-2014, 07:00 PM

I love my '70 C10, but I learned how to drive and work on cars with a'66 Ford just like this one, except it was tan. Brings back memories. Thanks for sharing it.

JRANGER · 10-06-2014, 10:54 PM
