Short bed I imagine as well

Over a year- nothing? Keep on looking.

It's mine, here is the Craigslist ad for it. It's really clean, great project- not desperate to sell for $1000 or some such. It'd be worth more to cut up at that point, probably make even more than selling it whole. Solid quarters, floor, trunk, roof, good grille, fenders, dash. Always amazes me...

It drives, but I'd definitely rebuild the carb and a stiff tune-up. It's been sitting for 6-7 years, just started & moved around. Tranny was rebuilt- convertor is orange Car is just east of Seattle in Sammamish, Washington

Mechanically, it's a simple 225. Does have the Kelsey-Hayes 4-piston SBP discs & a "Red Head" steering gear. Excellent candidate for a nice 340 cruise-mobile

Picked this up from a friend who was/is having health issues. Original owner was a friend of his mother's and when she retired & moved, then she sold it to him (she was in her 80's, he is in his 60's). The car has all it's parts, plus some extras'. Never twisted, totaled or such- worst thing...

Reading and learning- I absolutely hate electrical. "Necessary" evil in my world

I hear you- I absolutely hate electrical, myself. I always ask...fires and 'magic' wiring smoke is a real possibility if I am left to my own devices, LOL!

Here is the low-down; Have a very nice Travco motorhome. Been working on thinks as I can get to them, with an eye on making it as 'break-down' free and easy to work on as possible. Off the starter relay I have two fusible links, one is 14 gauge wire, the other 16 gauge. One thing I...

VVT, direct-injection w/very quick processing by the ECU, 8+ gears in an auto trans, less internal drag inside an ICE these days, great head flow designed in, efficient exhaust, better materials and manufacturing processes... Adds up.

I put Volvo 740 turbo buckets in a '72 F-250...much better

It does have all trim. Was asked that, so want to make sure that is clear.
