Well I put my parts chaser/tow vehicle to the test. I got this crappy '78 ford with a 460. SOme of you have seen pictures. I've had a hell of a time with this truck and tonight it proved its worth. I towed my parents 23' 9500 pound motorhome up a hill all and all the way back home without breaking a sweat.

Gotta love BBF torque.

Now....K&R..about that model A.....

How did you get that piece of shit running again? I'm surprised the frame didn't get ripped apart. Lets go get the A, Byron's got trailer access. I've got some $$ currently burning a hole in my bank acount supposedly for "rent" and "bills" but you know how it is.

Seriously though....the weekend after Pistons and Paint....up for it?

I put a battery in it. It still does that damn thing where it acts like it's on 4 cyl after a while, but not nearly as bad. Off idle though it pulls pretty strong. In pure redneck fashion I raced some girl in a yukon on the way back from the shop and didn't do too badly http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

that weekend sounds good. better put the good disc on the front for a long trip.

If it was a girl in a Yukon, she's probably more redneck than you are!

Actually... around here, if it was a girl in a Yukon, she was probably taking the kids to soccer practice while talking on her cell phone....
