The '46 is my dads, he pays the rent, I do the labor.Big smile  It's got a 4.6 SOHC from a '96 Crown Vic Police car in it, along with the standard 9" rear and Mustang II front.  Owned it for more than 20 years, was stone stock original when he bought it.Thumbs Up

i've been running my rad cap loose on my 2003 to avoid that chore, hasn't lost a drop or got hot for over a year maybe 2? now the right side exhaust manifold is cracked & blown out below where i can't see it. i have an ADTR Vortech kit and Typhoon intake for my 2011 so i can swap the stock one over, and if i get headers i can swap the manifolds too. a lot of work on a car that old & technically totalled but it's only got 150k on it, 27k on the 2011 :)

That's a pretty cool firewall John.  I am assuming it's polish stainless?  Good luck with the repair.

Now's the time for P.I. heads, intake and shorty headers.

Were it mine? I have a complete 4v top end I'd LOVE to throw on.  But, alas it ain't mine, and Senior said just fix it.  Hard to argue with 28 mpg highway.Big smile

Bit late on this one.  The first is what the herd looked like in Arizona.  Sold the Duster and Baja to finiah the Demon that is below.  It is still not done but should be in the spring.

Thank you.

CAJohnny here are your pics of the Demon.  This was during the build process.  Still not quite there.  Life and family take precident.  As for a roller they are around.  Heck get a duster and make it a demon, change the tail light panel, put the correct 71-72 grill and trim and you have a Demon.

I'm too embarrassed to show pictures of all the junk in our garages, but they hold a '68 XR7 Cougar, '05 Boulevard, '76 Torino, '72 Torino wagon, '72 Gran Torino Squire, '76 Gran Torino Squire, '89 B2, '69 Lincoln, '72 Torino Formal '05 Thunderbird, and C's Vette. Plus we have our trucks, Jeeps and Honda...and this thing that I'm figuring out what to build out of it.

Yes, 4WD, Kubota 4cyl diesel, rear steer. Got a deal on it, but have enough mowers. Some of my friends think I should pop off the mower deck, add large mudders and take it off-road.

here's mine with a chipper i bought last year... i mounted a hitch on the back so i can pull it near the trees where i need to chip the branches instead of loading them in my truck and hauling them to the burn pile requiring extra work, now i just pull it where i need it! that will chip 30' long branches as big as your arm in 1 whack Wink

Yes, new they are $29K. It's not eating anything just sitting there, so no big rush to sell it. This one is a 5111, so it can support the side "batwing" side decks as well, to make almost 16 feet wide of cutting, lol. It's a hoss. for sure.

I love the chipper setup - never thought about hooking my chipper to it!
