Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
![]() Ha…..I have my grandpa’s 67 Ford F100 that I drive around, especially during Fall hunting season. I found that hat on eBay. It’s my orange hunting hat. Just happened to toss it on before I floated the boat that morning. Brought me some luck….. ![]()

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Nothing wrong with that hat, as long as it doesn't give you headaches
![]() Nothing wrong with a '70s or earlier Ford truck either. Just because "I" prefer one thing doesn't make the other thing suck. Nothing wrong with a well full of crappie either!

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
It is but it's also what I call my internet service.
It was date night tonight. I took my better half out to a little local steakhouse. The food is great but they are hardly ever open and when they are the place is packed. I don't really understand that business model but if it works for them then more power to em. I took my Corvette. I hadn't driven it in a while and forgot just how nice it is to drive. It was a nice evening. ![]()

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
That does look cool. I'd love to have one but the price of those canned hams have gone crazy. Plus if I was confined in such a small space with my wife somebody would end up dead and it wouldn't be her.
![]() I went to the small market by my house today. I dislike going there. The people that work there act like you are bothering them just by checking out. Nobody's ever there so I guess I am bugging them just by shopping there. And don't even try to ask where something is or you'll get snake eyes. What a pest I am by being the only customer. ![]() So. Today. I buy my groceries and a carton of cigarettes. They never bag the cigarettes for some reason. I have no idea why but all the markets do it. Probably some nanny California thing. When I get to my car it hit's me. Did I put the cig's in the bag? Nope. Not there. I left them inside. Dang it! ![]() Sure enough there are my smokes just sitting on the checkstand and the checkout guy standing there just staring at the wall. Not another customer in sight. He says "You forgot those' Really? Thanks for telling me as ![]()

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
HE forgot those, as far as I'm concerned. It's up to the clerk to be sure you got all the goods you just shelled out for.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Good looking rig. I pull mine once a year to Bowling Green (3 hours), with the 55 to the tri 5 nats. Stay 3 days and park it. This year, I want to build a hidden hitch for the 71, but the 700 r4 makes me leary. I pulled mine with my 72 and a t350 with no problems. They are lots of fun.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
I figured I'd catch some heat for mentioning cigarettes. But I am a smoker. I love my cigarettes. That's not popular today I know. Smokers are looked down as a pariah to society these days. I have some health problems that are not related to smoking whatsoever. I get good checkups at the doctor. My health issues are due to Covid and hitting my head really hard and knocking my balance all out if whack. Getting older doesn't help either. Hopefully it will get better but so far not so much.
I seem to dodge bullets. Every male in my family has diabetes. I don't. My lungs are good even with the cigs. I don't even cough. I could suck a golf ball through a garden hose. Not that I would. Not for less than 20 bucks. ![]() My brother was a health fanatic. No drinking. No smoking. No fatty foods. No nothing. Except young blondes. But that could be considered exercise I suppose. He would lecture me on smoking. ![]() ![]()

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
I'm on #3 in the 98 even though its an electronic 4l60. They just don't like something behind them. I opted for the r4 cause of the 3:73 gears in the rear but if it dies, 3:08s will go in there and I will build a t350 pronto. I pulled the Scotty all over west Tenn on a 4 day road trip with the 72. Didn't have the 1st issue.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Not what I did today, but I've pulled this camper with this car 10,000 miles with a 200r4 trans and 3.42 gears. When built right with the aftermarket bands and corvette servo, among other internal goodies, it hasn't complained once, even in the Smokey mountains.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Finally got my engine run/test stand done except the powder coat which will happen after this little SBF comes off. I built it so about 90% of the wiring will just lift out, so it should come apart and go back together fairly easy/quick.
I fired this puppy up today and it runs good but has a rear main leak that will have to be addressed, the main reason I purchased it was for the transmission, transfer case and overdrive, it was a package deal. All the gears work and don't make any funny noises or any not so funny noises. Those will be checked, inspected internally and re-sealed before I install in my Jeep. As you can see in the pic's the mufflers fold up for storage and transport with exhaust flex in between. |
