Yeah, hard to justify 3500 when it's in pieces. BUT these damn crew cab 4x4 shortbeds are getting hard to find for a decent price. And with the amount of 12V Cummins that have been on the market lately, I feel like fate is tempting me.

Just one more on the never ending list of projects I want to do.

Yeah, it is on my list of projects too.

But for now - I think unless I want to be sleeping in that crew cab, I best get one or two of those projects on the road before I start another.

Still......

That 460 has got to go though, drive train from a 12v cummins for certian.

I once said that a Bronco will likely be my only Ford, but that is a killer truck. Like stated above - that is a great next project.

You have one of those lists that never seems to get shorter, only longer, too?

Right now I'm at, in order of desire:
1956 F100 with something very large and fast under the hood. Thinking 434 Stroker built from a 400M. I dunno.
1973-77 F250 CrewCab F250 4x4 Shortbox with a 12V Cummins.
1965-66 Fairlane 5.8L EFI for a commuter car.
1940 DeSoto Deluxe. More for the wife than I. Saw one on our way to get married and she loved it.
Some sort of sick rat rod.

My list:

We agree on the truck - 73-77 F250 crew cab short box 4X4 12V cummins and auto trans. tow -work truck.
69 camaro - built to be an awesome touring / comuting car. front and rear disk brakes, IRS, IFS, Fuel injected, auto, all the comforts.
my own EB - driver as well. 35's, auto, FI, AC, PS, 4 wheel disks, cage.... you get the idea.
26 foot flat bed trailer, with a pop up tent camper mounted near the front and plenty of room to load the camaro or bronco on the rear for those few times (like hunting camp) when I need the exta hauling space.

Fortunatly (for the insurance company and my wallet), I am beyond the need to go faster than everyone else, but I do want the camaro to be able to run with any factory BMW, modern comaro or mustang but still be reliable, comfortable and fun to drive.

But first, I suppose I should do some of the list that my wife has for me:
Shed,
fix the gate and fence and retaining wall in the back yard that is rotting away, re-do the kitchen with granite and better lighting,
master bathroom needs something, though she can not come up with a plan yet...
Windows - need them throughout the house (yes, I am in the glass business and yes I can get good windows for less than most, but damit, the last thing I want to do when I get home is think about glass...

I think you get the idea.

And just in case you prefer a different drive train....

Might be just a little spendy I think.
