    I have heard is as hard to get .22 rounds as it is to get decent pot roast.
    Of course, I suppose you could use the .22 for the first phase of pot roast.
    Thats a darn good trade
     
  2. great truck to start with, good neighbor you have, who I am sure realize he / she gave you a great deal....cant wait to see you do something with it!

    You could scrap it and make money on the deal.

    sell the crown vic stuff and put Jag xj under. if your on tthe western side of the state i can probably connect you with a guy you could buy the jag donor stuff from for less than what you sell the crown vic for coming out money ahead.

    the crown vic is easy but is WIDE. the jag is about the same work depending on whether you hard mount or soft mount like it was originally(yes the jag is bolt in in stock app to)...ken....

    Thanks Lucky. I don't own the CV stuff, but can get it if I want it. It would be a little jerky of me to take free parts offered to help, then sell for a profit. I'll look into the jag stuff. I know where a few of them are, I was going to do the jag swap on my 54.

    I also might find a F100 front axle and gasser the truck. Either way I probably cut the bed down or try to find a short bed.

    Take all the free parts, and when you sell them surprise him by splitting the money with him. You both win then.

    Sweet trade! Long beds do look good sitting low.
     
  23. nice trade. My favorite body style ford truck. Its sad to think that its probably cheaper to drive that truck than shoot the 22 these days. But at least you can still run over rabbits and squirrels.

    Nice Lever action rifle. Dunno, those are very sought after guns.

    You traded a 22 rifle for a couple of black drainage tubes? You could have bought them at Home Depot for a lot cheaper than what the rifle's worth.

    Oh, for the truck; never mind. Short bed with a floating rear axle, that's unusual. Clean the truck up, and post some new pics. Good trade. Butch/56sedandelivery.
     
  27. I also think it has a short bed.
    He says he has a long bed..
    I like how stubby it is.
     
  28. Awesome score. Clean it up and put in a stout 351W and drive it!
     
  29. Nice! I wish I could find a trade like that.
