Good deal. 302s can be one hell of a little motor if you build them right. Fords are more complicated to work with than GM but there is NOTHING wrong with Ford. Hell most the time I like my Ford over my GM, honestly.

well if u would ****** read what i wrote it says i BOUGHT IT LIKE THIS.... which means i didnt ****** put a sideways liscense plate on the son of a bitch.. so it aint my fault... this truck started out as a lowrider project that turned more towards the performance side and it is an 88 so yeah it probly was cool back then..... i paid 500$ for the mother ******... i could care less if the plates was upside down....i dont like the plates but its whatever for 500$...i do agree with you on one thing though... i hate fords too, but i think it will be and alright toy to mess around with... i got the Z for a daily driver til i fix the renger up, then they will switch

Look at the size of this guy's I-*****! ITS HUGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm so glad we have posters like you, makes everyone else look that much better.



Midnight - Good luck with the build. Re-doing the plate and a cleanup job/paint/motor and you could have a nice truck.
