So what Have I been up to?

[weareweird69]

Yes, I havent been to SCS in a while.

1. being that I work too damn much to enjoy my car. Only about 4K miles in the past two years, including the DRIVE to and from Myrtle Beach last year for Mustang Week I got engaged there last year, and will be getting married Next August oh boy. lol

2. Ive been working on getting my Powerstroke "done" for its debut. :D



The Original Photo I took.


Its in the November Issue of Diesel Power Magazine.

I saw the SCS Fall Cruise, and Im thinking that would be something fun to do next year! But anyway, wanted to say hello to all, and that ill be lurking again and trying to get back into the groove of things.

Thats about it lol

[PaxtonShelby]

Holy schneikeys!!!!!!!! Makes my '94 F150 XLT look like Grammy's old Pinto!!

[weareweird69]

lmao Its my daily driver, so its got everything I could ever want in it.

Gonna roll over 190,000 miles tomorrow, and the only thing with that mileage on it is the sheet metal, frame, and inner workings (fuel lines and such) Replaced a bunch of interior stuff, the suspension, axles, transmission, engine was replaced at 76000 lol

Also, I picked up a 96 F350 last year to take care of plowing duties. Have an 8.5 foot western on the front. Itll move some snow! lol Can you guys tell I like Blue?

[PaxtonShelby]

Nice!

gpfarrell on here has a sweet F250 extended cab - same color - with a 460 and a 5-speed. Maybe he'll chime in...

Oh - I like blue too!!

[John4cam]

Lol, buckstop....how fitting!. Ron is right though, this body style is hard to find a quality truck in.

[weareweird69]

That's a beautiful truck Paxton!


And I hear that on hard to find. Both of those trucks came from southern Virginia.

Thanks! It isn't completely rust free, but much better than most you see around. Next spring once the roads are clean and the Cobra can be a daily driver for a while I plan on having a few little spots ( the usual spots - behind the front wheels and above the rear wheels ) cleaned up and sprayed. It comes in so handy when the snow flies. Just a tad over 72k miles as of now - so it should be in the driveway for a LONG time... The only thing I don't absolutely love about it is the 12mpg the little 5.0 gets...

[weareweird69]

LOL Mine is starting to rust at the cab corners :(

I had a 5.0 truck once. I absolutely hated it. Too small, too horrid MPG, and couldnt tow jack. I think the 300's are a better motor lol

I have some tricks for never letting that rust come back for the fenders and bed :)

[pRojekt02GT]

weareweird, was your truck in a previous magazine without the brush guard on the front? I swear I've seen that in a Ford Mag a few years ago, if not it looks damn close. awesome looking truck!
