Ford key for scale.  1 quarter what exactly?

Belongs to a 90 year old dude getting his equally old Blazer repaired. 

Happened to someone I know who bought a big block crewcab Dodge truck.  The Dana 60 piled up.  the 400/727 kept turning.

I hate them so much I might send it to the crusher.

Of course he was coming right away, with cash. Now I have two halves of a truck, and all kinds of dummies.

Truckin’ down the road so fancy free.....(sheds tear)

Now With EVEN SHORTER Wheelbase!

It drove until it broke in half in it’s old age. (safely in garage, haven not made any rash decisions)  The truck did not die where she fell, I drove it home, could probably drive it until it actually breaks in half, but it’s life as a reasonably safe vehicle to drive is done. 

One of the last of her kind, 33 years in the family, customised out of necessity, driven in half. Never had a chassis noise until last night. did not pass stress test. Runs like a top. Deserves a viking funeral. I rode to school in the box of this very truck, let my own kids shift the gears, and we’ve had many…

Been revisiting some old albums this weekend.   Had forgotten this one. 

show us your “SHEBLEY”  And Porsh emblems

I witnessed some internal combustion last night, just not all six at once. 

glad the “duct tape toshiba”  is still in perfect working order. 

my Ford, there are many like it,but this one is mine.

What we have here is apparently the first wheel-lift, as installed on the last (68) Mercury M-350.  and it’s purple.  There cannot be many of these hiding out there. 

also in photo is the back of an operational Toys’r’us, so three unicorns in one photo. 

there are better pics somewhere.   One of my favourite cars over the years, zippy and fun.  Was tricky to shave emblems off a plastic car.
