I bought a 57 ford f600 with a grain box dump on it for 400$. I figured I would make it into a trailer. Well I popped the clutch while towing it and it runs!!!!!!!! The PTO and hydraulics all work too. It leaks gas like crazy but runs. I'm on vacation with the fan but will post pics when I get home. I just had to gloat. I needed a win.
Nicely done!!
oh and it has a y block 292 so even I can work on it!!
Where's the pictures!?!
/mutter
Some people, gloat and don't even share a pic! ;)

Don't let it run too much more before you change the gas, and you may need lead additive.
AHEM: PRIORITIES!
No Pictures = No Gloat.

No man, lock or anything shall stop me from accessing the cooler Patriot.
Surely you knew this.
You've herd the expression of not getting in between a mamma bear an her cub. IN this case it's don't get between me an my cooler.
