lol yea i pulled that off the old torino because the fac. wheel was shot quick fix and did not cost nothing lol BTW while this pic reminds me of it I have read here that yall pull van shafts to replace the fac because of the tilt? are they longer? and does it look the same?

I just went and looked at a similar looking truck today that's listed on ebay. I think the bid's up to a little over $1k now. So, I would say you did well at $300.

I'd say its worth the $300 the bed panels on there are looking pretty clean and quite a bit of other stuff let a lone a good running 350/350 combo could be worth that alone

We could all save money if we bought a project that someone is tired of, instead of what some of us choose to do.

Nice find.
