and give us some history if you know it

 

[Buzzy]

OK so I have 2 pre 97's
The newest one is a 1995 150 sc it was a one owner truck before me. I work with over 400 car dealers so I often get some sweet deals. I picked this one up for $3500 and I use it a lot I drive this almost as much as my 2004 Mercedes there is just something about a nice older truck.

the other truck is the 67 prostreet

drive way shot with the rx7 vert in front of the truck they fight for attension

Both trucks look amazing
You invested allots of money in 67
but
your 95 looks amazing and its stock
well done
You look well after your babies

I am up to 7 done out cars now and I dont seem to be able to stop. I have 2 more projects I am buying parts for now a 1940 ford coupe and a 70 maverick Grabber I dont have the cars just but that is the easy part finding and building power trains is a huge expense so I take it one step at a time. My collection is mostly ford 2 mazda rx7's a lincoln mark 5 a 04 supercharged Mercedes and a 90 Chev 4x4

 

[fordtough.ca]

Thats a nice collection
2 new projects
:icon_idea:

 

[Buzzy]

they will be a long time coming but I figure if I buy power trains and buy them bit by bit the sting doesnt hurt so bad. When I built my convertible I bought a few different cars along the way and stripped them to get the parts I wanted they were all running good cars with lots of add ons some were project cars that guys ran out of money that sort of thing.
I bought a fox body that was a fine car it had a nice motor and diff so thats what I took for the Maverick project. a buddy had a 6 point cage sitting in his shop I bought the cage for the foxbody and dropped it in then sold the car as a project for a back half drag car. The long story short I got a nitrous system a fresh diff and a nice 5.0 for $2000

I have three, a 93 Flareside 4x4 with a 6 inch lift, 35" BFG Mud T/A's, 4.56 gears, Mac ceramic coated headers, true duals with glass packs and high flow cats and a rebuilt 306. Iv had the truck for about 4 years and bought it from a buddy that bought when it was 2 years old.

And a 95 extended cab short box 2 wheel drive with a 302 and 4spd auto that I bought about 2 months ago for a DD, it is original paint and very clean. It has Ford Motorsport plug wires, an Accel coil and a K&N filter. Headers, dual exhaust and a 3.73 posi will be done by spring.

I also have a 94 lightning project truck that I bought about 8 years ago with collision damage that is sitting in my garage awaiting finishing (there always seems to be somewere else to spend any extra cash LOL) I dont have any pics of it yet but ill try to post some later.

Very nice trucks, plus another project, would love to have a project like that, but no room and place to work in

 

[Ottawaguy]

Those are some nice trucks! ...Which makes me not want to show mine so much.
But it was a decent deal and I needed one then and there basically.
Of course the striping will come off soon..as well as new fenders and box likely...of course followed by paint.
Having said that, I'm gonna keep my eyes open next summer for a decent 4x4 of the same model...just to get that much farther back into the bush
But for now anyway..this is my rig.
Feast your eyes...

Here is a pic of my 1979 Ford Ranchero GT, I know it's only partially a truck but it is licensed as a truck ! :icon_lol:

 

[fordtough.ca]

I love those Ranchero's
Great looking car/truck

Well, mine isn't mint, but it keeps on trucking in -40 weather. Moved to Yellowknife, NT from ON a year ago and it made the 5000 km drive, fully loaded, with no problems. Didn't need oil for the whole trip and got 16.8 mpg avg. I'd like to put more into it but don't have the cash. As long as it'll move, I'll be driving it.

95 F-150 XL, 5.0 V8

This is where it sleeps in Yellowknife with battery and block heaters. It drives great and the heat works like a charm. :icon_biggrin:

Oh ya, it made that 5000km drive with 250,000km on it.

^^^With regular maintenance, you can't kill a 5.0L :happy116:^^^

 

[Cheapshot]

Here's my 1995 F-150 XL. I bought it when I was 18. Its Supercab, 2wd, 5 speed with the 300-6. This baby took me to school, when I moved away from home and never hiccupped once. Seriously a total god send of a truck. I'm absolutely blessed to have it. I know it doesn't look like much but me and her have shared some memories. It now has 270k on it, doesn't burn any oil, doesn't puff blue, runs like a top, simply amazing machine. I let the body go over the years but it still runs strong!

After a little bit of snow
