Either my 302 was very ill, or HandyAndy's is souped up. Actually, when I bought the donor car, the engine had just been rebuilt professionally by the Ford dealership, along with the tranny (C4), so when the owner drove it over, he took me for a ride. I was impressed at how it perfromed. It's not a racer, but niether was the 302. I'll stick with Peppy, except if I'm hauling a trailer full of garden soil. :2_thumbs_up_-_anima
Hey Beercan ...so...ya want Ford do ya?? i knew there was something i liked about you!!!!!!!!!!!!!! what kind of money do you want to throw away??
Rev, you're my anchor, you help me keep the faith, bro, don't sell out!!! The planet will tilt to Kansas, man!
Hey! I resemble that remark. Time to fine tune that bird of yours. I suggest, for starters, taking a pair of pliers and giving the u-bend in the accelerator pump rod a little squeeze.
No really it's OK. It's actually peppy at 35 mph and on up. My Cougar is quite heavy compared to Fairmonts. 3200 lbs. + (the + is for me LoL)But I'm quite satisfied. I've never had anything above 150 horsepower. But, that Mazda rotary pickup truck I had would down right scoot and it was 110 horsepower.
howdy hoo! Yepp. I have been doin some thinking. I would settle for getting my hands on a ford ltd, from the eighties. Black, whie raised letter tires, full option option list, red leather interior. And turbine wheels, or some other cool rims, that might resemble eighties style. But this one was very sweet! http://adcache.collectorcartrader.com/10/7/1/90103571.htm And this one http://adcache.collectorcartrader.com/10/6/9/90097169.htm That´s about the ones I really like. Of course there is many, but on the top of my list. That is the ones. Cheers folks! Nice to see there is active members in this community.
Personally I like the Sport Wagon the best. Mainly because I like being different and it's not as accepted as the Olds Vista Cruiser.
hi again I thought I would give you all an update, to erase some of the.. who is that guy behind that nick "beercan" I am 31 years old. Living in Sweden. Got one dog, one cat. No wife, if you know any good women, that needs good a man, lemme know Got a few cars that I am working on, closest to a wagon is my firetruck right now. I am a musician, currently also building a guitar. Hm, live in a small house on the countryside, just for the peace. Cheers!
Firetruck site in the UK! I was searching around for Steam Bending techniques and lucked out on finding a British Website FULL of antique Steam Driven and Normal Combustion engine-powered Fire Trucks and emergency vehicles. Anyway, I hope you enjoy it. http://fleetdata.co.uk/downloads.html Here's some pictures: http://fleetdata.co.uk/fire.html http://fleetdata.co.uk/rally.html
