Re: This truck is crying inside
Everything else aside, I've always wondered what a ford bed would look like on there. Not too bad. It's got the rounded out wheel wells and the body lines match up worlds better than gen 4 bed I got on mine... All the paint fell off it about 20 years ago too. I also like the Cleveland, and last I looked there were about a bazillion different configurations of the 350.
Good on him for keeping it working. |

Re: This truck is crying inside
Wow what a shame, between the grille and the box- hideous!!! Poor ol girl. As for Ferds well not much use for them. I like what my buddy did in his man cave, he glued a blue oval to the bottom of his toilet! The only one I ever owned came with our first house (pretty redneck- house comes with rusty beat up ol Ferd!) and we traded it for free trims for our horses with the farrier!!!

Re: This truck is crying inside
Do you like the 351M? How many changes on the 350 in how many years? Still the same basic design 1968-1995, and small blocks interchanging parts since 1955. A lot more things than a SBC changed in those 40 years. How many small block Ford designs in that time? I can't tell you how many times I have stood at the parts counter and had someone walk up with a Ford part and say, "This isn't the right part". I had one Dodge and parts were a nightmare. I went with Chevy for ease of parts and designs that stood the test of time. Don't want a pissing match, so I'm done. Like I said, we like what we like. Let's leave it at that. What do you expect on a GM Truck site?

Really? Lol. I guess everybody has an opinion. ![]() Aside from the hideous make over, i still say if pics are accurate, cab and clip look fairly solid. Might get it for 7 or $800..
