    Omaha guys must have been sleeping late today. '48 Ford F-2 with a 283 adapted to the original Ford 4 speed at south U-Pull It. We got the brakes, steering box and column, shock mounts, 4 speed Ford tranny, Speed Gems adapter, pilot bushing, clutch, flywheel, correct rebuilt starter, front Hurst motor mount. I didn't get there until 10:30 AM. I guess nobody noticed the truck since there was a '57 Chevy Wagon right by the front door. Left the 283 there but, it is an early 283 that I believe came with forged crank and rods. Even U-Pull It gets some good parts once in a while. Brian

    North lot definitely seems to get more of the old usable stuff. Lots of Buicks in the last 2 years or so. Some Mopar stuff. If you don't check often the good stuff gets gone quick. Brian

    If I add up all the $2 "environmental" entry fees I've paid I probably could have built a 4 car garage. Between me and my buddy Earl we do pretty well at finding the good stuff. Lots of days where there's nothing but Grand Prix's and Taurus' wagons. Brian
