Hey Ben! Is the wind blowing at your place? I think it's blowing here too!;D;D

Kevin Marti should give Dennis a discounted group rate.

That's a great idea! A Marti mass buy!:-X:-X;D

Porky is a one off! The only one with the 'extra cooling radiator', whatever that's worth!;D;D;D

I wasn't aware of a heavy duty front spring option

Can someone enlighten me ?

 

[Rox Crusher]

Put me in @ 20

I can't answer it, Rox. It is a U152 which is the 4900 GVW (which costs $55.80 on the sticker), Then it lists heavy duty front springs ($4.70), and heavy duty shocks front and rear ($20.00). I'm with you, it seems like the heavy duty coils would come with the heavy GVW package, but Ford found a way to charge an extra $24.70!?:??:?

Thanks Nutter and KSM. We have a family reunion soon and if the weather is right, we might drive 'Porky'!

It was a beautiful fall day here and we took Porky to the family reunion! It was the first ever of my Dad's folks. Somewhere around 35 people there to eat, watch a video of photos, look at some family heirlooms and drive Porky! Of course, Jimmy (Porky) was there and here's a couple of pictures of the Him (the original owner) and his two daughters and a grand daughter, which are all my cousins!;D;D

Well... After two years of searching, I finally have two pictures of Porky from back in the day. The first picture is not very good quality, but it was made in may of '77. Porky was sold new May 16th, '77 so it was still 'stinkin' new! I knew the fenders were cut within a week or two and the vectors installed. In this picture the lift hasn't been installed. The second picture is my cousin with a big gobbler and a little mud on the Bronco from '83.

I want to have some quality reprints made from these and possibly get Jimmy to replicate the pose with "Porky" for a fresh picture!

And a few pictures of it now..

 

[warthog6x6]

Muy Bueno!! Very nice job.

 

[Justafordguy]

I love those old pictures Dennis. Now Porky looks better than new.

 

[Teal68]
