The 68 runs and drives

Post by towtruckerfour »

I finally got my 68 F250 4x4 up and running. I am going to try driving it tomorrow to see how it does. Hopefully I have no problems with it. It doesn't run perfect but pretty decent. I've been waiting since March when we bought it for my birthday to get the chance to finally drive it. Can you tell I'm a little excited?

Why is it that the trucks are always the best running vehicles in the family?

The truck did great. I may need to adjust the clutch a little but it ran just fine. I just need to find where the temp and oil sending wires are. I didn't see them when I put the motor in so I hope the po didn't take them out for some reason. It is kinds cool riding up high.
