This guy has a lot going on!

There is at least 1 bullnose, extended cab, dually, white and green.

Thinking of going to check it out... if it is cheap and drives my wife might let me bring it home..

PLEASE go check! I think there may be two Honda Trail 90's in the pic below. The two with their front tires almost touching.

Janey wants one, and it would be COOL to have two of them. You buy them for a song and we'll come get them.

Man, I want to head up! I’d like to get a Ranchero some day.

That’d be cool to get two scooters!

His and hers, and they'll fit in the back of Big Blue.

Re: This guy has a lot going on!

Ha! Awesome! I will be sure to check them out and get the details. More than happy to bring them home for you!

The truck needs a lot of work apparently, has been picked over. Still, $500 and a title, only needs a battery to drive... i am in!

Gsmblue

Re: This guy has a lot going on!

He wants $500 for the truck as “engine and transmission”. Going to try and head there mid morning. My friend is gonna drive me and i need to find a battery to take...

He has other bullnose vehicles so gonna do some picking... this is going to be awesome!

I’ll take pics to share.

The wife is rolling her eyes a lot right now!

That makes two of them!

Just ask David/1986F150Six on Monday. Janey has wanted another one of those for quite some time. And at one point I had one as well. So.....

No problem!

What battery does a 460 engine in a F350 need????

Gary Lewis

From our page at Documentation/Electrical/Batteries. And something like "80/" means 1980 thru the end of the catalog, which was 1989.

Looks like a lot of fun!
Don't forget to throw in some jumper cables in case.

Where is Bill when you want him? He might be interested in some of that Plymouth turbo engine stuff.

Re: This guy has a lot going on!

Sounds like the truck needs a fuel pump and a carb too.

Not sure how this will go.

I have an Edelbrock 1406 sat on the side i can rebuild. Would that work on a 460? At least to get the truck home?

Re: This guy has a lot going on!

With it only being 20 miles, I'd consider just towing it or trailering it.

The 1406 is fine for a 460. I ran Big Blue on one for a while. But getting the throttle connected will require a ball on it if it doesn't have one. And you'll have to get the fuel line connected.

I'm with Scott - tow or a trailer would be my preference. Are you a AAA member? They'll tow it.

Re: This guy has a lot going on!

Might check with AAA. If you’re buying it and getting it home, I don’t think they’ll do that, at least not part of the “free” tows.

I tried once but don’t remember the details.
