1986F150Six

600+ miles, too!

5 more days!

Congratulations, Cory!

Clay, I will follow this thread with interest as I have ridden in Rusty before you owned him. I know you have done a lot to and for Rusty!

I like the look, Dane.

Gary, you have the relay for power, but have you checked the ground?

That is C-O-O-L, Gary!

Yes. Thanks, Gary!

Email sent to you.

I am bringing some left over vinyl seat material bought from SMS for my 1986. It is red and the material used in the original inserts. There is likely enough to repair 1 or 2 inserts [1 lower and 1 upper?]. You may have it for free. A few more items: * EEC-IV FBC-ISC3 8K MROM [computer] - E5DF-12A650-H2A This was pulled from a 1985 F150 [61K miles; a former city utility dept. vehicle] with auto. transmission and 4.9L engine. * Black plastic valve cover mounted solenoid(s) cover from a 1985 F150 [see above] - E4TF-12B535-AA * Black exterior mirror: E4TZ-17682-D = D/S - in original box w/o screws or gasket. * Black exterior mirror: E5TZ-17682-B = D/S - in original box w/o screws or gasket. It has a vertical dent on the back. * (2) anti rattle springs for door window crank. * (4) protective plastic spacers which are between the window crank and the door panel. - [spoken for; Gary Lewis] * Instrument cluster bezel w/o AC - E0TB-10045C90-A.

I just retrieved the radiator and have it ready for the trip. This is the information on it and it does look nice! Vista-Pro MOD: 0432184 PWO: 9451385 REF: A12G Larry [edited], please confirm that you want this as I will not bring it if you do not.

You might ask how a 74 year old man carried them down the stairs w/o falling, and I'd say "He's smarter than that." When I built the shop I installed a trap door, an I-beam, and a winch. Works very nicely! And with just the right safety features, that 74 year old man's grandtwins can go up and down?

But how else am I supposed to win??? Joking... They look good, Gary!

Garagemahal... the go to place! It reminds me of years ago: guys helping each other.

Seems like someone found an entire set and you only needed one?

And, this will be Gary's to sell. It is a rebuilt 75A 2G alternator with new electrical pigtail connection. It is still in the original box and Gary gave it to me a couple of years ago. It turns out that I never needed it.

Regarding the radiator: It appears that your truck is a 1984. Gary mentioned that he had a V8 radiator with the inlet and outlet on opposite sides. I have a radiator for a 4.9L. The thing is that it was pulled from a 1985 and the mounts are different. I can bring it to the show and you may have it for free and see if you can make it work. If not, give it to someone else. The donor truck was a city utility truck with 61K miles [i have had the radiator for several years]. It is an aftermarket radiator and looks pretty new. The donor truck had an automatic transmission, so the radiator has the internal cooler lines.

I have a few items to bring and will possibly find a few more as I go through the storage area: * (4) factory wheel centers for 2WD. The chrome is quite good. The red centers have faded. * (6) factory screws for center caps. * (4) factory bumper bolts with the stainless capped heads. * A red ash tray with the blue light filter and cigar lighter. * Factory steering wheel; good condition. * Stock valve cover for 1984-1986 4.9L. * Fuse panel cover [E2TB-14A003-AA]. * Blue panel piece with the rubber seal which fits just below the steering column [E0TB-1004459-A]. * (2) headlight retainer rings [rectangular]. * (1) plastic trim piece which covers the seat frame where it folds forward [3561685 E3TS]. * 1985/86 woodgrain XL center bezel with openings for clock [E5TB-15045A98-HA]. The woodgrain has not faded or turned purple, but the top two fasteners are damaged. FREE TO ANYONE NEEDING IT! * Factory two tone horns and wiring.

Thank you! As I prepare for the road trip, I have put together a handful of Alabama plates for anyone needing one. See y'all there!

Randy, see if this old thread helps. https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1447832-lmc-upholstery-kit-1986-f150.html

I, too, missed that. Good eye, Scott!

Rollin', rollin'... see if you remember this, Gary.
