Ok, been a while. I did get the old rear end off the truck. I have the Jag rear end set up under the frame now. Trying to figure out how I figure my ride hieght from here. I plan on using coil over shocks that are adjustable. Guess I probably need to buy them huh? I also plan on welding the rear...

I decided that with everything I have going on , removing the front and rear suspension from the car will take me months to accomplish . So, I have a guy who works on my newer vehicles, who has a shop. He said he would put the car on his lift and remove both suspension cradles for a little cash...

Ok, guys been a while. Been busy. With the business. And , we have our first Grandson Julian, who is now 3 months old. Couldn't be happier. So, I got the cooling issue solved by going back to stock Ford system. Fan clutch, and good tight shroud. Problem solved. So, I just bought an 89 Jaguar XJ6...

Just wanted to give you guys an update on my cooling issues. I removed electric fan and all related BS to make it operate, and started from square one. I was determined to go back to a regular clutch type fan with a good shroud. First thing I did , was to have my local radiator guy straighten...

So, I now have the radiator removed , and I am rethinking the whole cooling situation. I do not like electric fans, but I also know they have their place in hot rods. I found that if I unbolt the radiator support from its original location , I can move the radiator forward about 3 1/2". That...

So, I decided to go for s spin today. Well, I wound up pulling over a few times to let her cool down. Nothing worse than a hot engine on a hot day. It actually never got hot, just about 210* was about the hottest. Friday I messed with my timing, carb adjustments, and airflow from fans. I have my...

Thanks guys , for the input. Just so that I know what I have , I removed the radiator and took it to my local trusty radiator guy. He looked up the type radiator that came in a 69 Lincoln. He spouted of a type , then said that I should have at least 35 GPM flow throught the radiator to cool the...

Well, now onto another issue. It seems that I am running a little hot after driving for 20 minutes. Temp goes up to around 205 , and I think it should be cooler than that. One thing is, the truck has a radiator ,what looks to be out of a larger older F series truck. Maybe F2 ? I may need a 4 row...

Nice![cl

So, tried to check out the ol Ford the other day. Cranked her up, and went for a little spin around the block. Then, decided to take her for about a ten mile cruise to check things out. That didn't go so well. Evedently, my aluminum aftermarket fuel tank that was in the truck when I bought it...

Got the rear end lowered today

Me too!:D

Love this truck. [cl

hahahahaha!!!

Thanks, I am also looking for a good pinstriper in my area. May have to go to Jacksonville for that though.

Pulled the truck out and decided it needs some lowering done. Gonna look at my options, and get it down a little . I also got the pintstripe brush out and did the letters on the tail gate.

That truck has a great stance. Love it!
