    Trying to help my dad sell these for my late uncle. I know they are priced high in the ad but if you have ANY interest please let me know, they need to be gone. https://www.hemmings.com/classifieds/cars-for-sale/ford/thunderbird/1965789.html Please PM for a phone number if needed. Thanks, Grant

    My neighbor is doing the same to a early 50's Ford Truck (F1, F100? not sure) He said the front frame rails actually match up and share several bolt holes.... go figure

    Old Fiberglass Tub?

    Sorry to hear of your father's passing. I built mine from similar parts, I have an old Kentrol tub on mine, although mine has a real tailgate and the inner fenders and core support are all part of the tub. Mine had steel supports glassed in around the tailgate, cowl/ dash, and core support...

    Driveshaft shop in SE Michigan

    I had them build a rear (serviceable) shaft for my wife's Grand Cherokee. Price was on par with others I found and I had it on my doorstep 2 days later. Think it was around $400. I would recommend them!

    one post car lift?

    For the price of that thing I would look for a used 2 or 4 post. There are deals out there, my dad paid $400 for a used Ammco 8K 2 post, the shop owner was upgrading to a 12K and wanted scrap value for it, we put new cables on and rebuilt the cylinders. Overall we might have $800 into a...

    Early Ford 6.9 swap into a EB?

    Its a big engine, same-ish block as a 7.3, but really I wouldn't bother, they were not that great of an engine. (my personal experience) Family friend had on in an old F-250, it was a turd, was always cracking heads, eventually he left it and drove with 2 cracked heads. On the Ford truck...

    Is this Bronco a good first project?

    Not sure where you are, but I would give $3500 for that in a heartbeat. But I am in the rust belt.... Depending on your skills, I would say that is a good first project. Looks pretty solid, and it sounds like the mechanicals are fair.

    Use whatever line you are top coating with, or something compatible. That being said, I used Nason Select Prime, it laid down really well and only needed minimal scuffing before top coating. But it ain't cheap... If this is more of a driver rig, just use Omni or something cheaper

    42 years of MIchigan weather

    I usually just order from JBG. I used to get down there for work all the time, if I get down there in the next week (unlikely) I will let you know to save on shipping. Try National Parts Depot (npdlink.com) or CJ Pony Parts, they are usually reasonable on shipping as well. Here are a few...
