With it in production until 1992, one has to wonder if it would be profitable to ship sheetmetal north to us saps in the USA, especially those of us that live in the rust belt... Clean sheetmetal isn't easy to find.

Ditto. Our Brazilian friend here may be able to help us out and make a tidy profit doing it.

I understand being 25 years behind sucks for a lot of reasons.....but.... I would give A LOT to turn back the clock on this country 25 years or more. For we are in deep trouble. I say keep it simple for as long as possible and don't progress for the sake of progress. :2cents:

Very cool build. Keep the updates coming!



EDIT: Ahhhhh.....I come back after posting and see you addressed the sheet metal while I was typing for too long. Bummer.

This truck is bad to the bone! :thup: I totally dig the y-block and they sound cool too! 8) Actually, our FE motors here are very much like a bigger y-block with the lower block skirted past the main caps. Good luck with your build and I'm anxious to see more!

I have more luck using Google to search than the regular forum search engine. With Google, put what you're looking for in quotes, for an exact match, and then end your search string with site:fordification.com. That will limit your search to primarily pages on this website. Since we're only 67-72 you don't have to include that in your search string. For example

"inner fender" modification dropped site:fordification.com

will give you topics that have the words "inner fender" side by side AND the word "modification" AND the word "dropped" anywhere in the website of Fordification.com.

Good luck!
