    That is the ONLY chopped e100 that looks good that I've ever seen. Ever. I guess the drawback is you can't use it to haul much now though?

    The other one is on the other side! :D I can't photograph both sides at the same time. I ain't no Pablo Picasso! :)

    Not a 6 either. '89 Lincoln 302/5.0L HO. 4 tips looked like "too much" if you can believe that. All 6 tips are "live, but realistically all the gasses will go through 1 pipe per side.

    Here's the complicated driver's side. The weird bend is there to clear the clutch fork. Stupid headers dump straight into the clutch fork.

    so much for the "peak"!

    Tailgate alone is easily worth half that if its not rusty. I say go for it

    You're going to spend the money getting it to running condition that would have bought you a driver, so why go through that step if you don't need to? It took me about 6 months to find a running one in ok shape for the price I wanted to pay, it's worth the wait.

    The guy who ownes AER rebuilders in Dallas has one of the pickups. He has a blown BB FORD in the bed, It is wicked looking and pulls the wheels for blocks.
    I thin kis name is Mike Magrath? Or something like that. He'll have it at the Yellow Rose Classic in Fort Worth next weekend.

    I kinda have one, this is actually a Falcon Bus. I hadn't ever seen one until last year, so I had to have the thing. I actually have it for sell in the H.A.M.B classifieds. Got the original motor and running gear which includes a 9-inch 31 spline rear. She runs, but is a little weak. If your interested P.M. me or call for $1,400.
