    Ahh the most favorite motivational tool of all, either "It can be done" or "There is NO WAY that YOU can do that"

    Thanks for proving them wrong! Nice work, post more pics.

    Smashing up the truck sucks, sorry. But hey, think 'donor' and get the insurance salvage on it and you might come out ok. They make carb manifolds for the Ford 4.6 motors now.

    Holy Shit on Dry White Toast! Can't wait for the movie, so I humbly request you do a tech thread on how you made those doors. Damn! Humbling.
    I was just looking at the chewed up doors on my Essex tonight and wondering where in the hell I could come across another pair without selling off vital organs... now I might be able to keep that extra kidney and testicle after all.
