[bigred110]

What is a Roof Marker????? :?

[Ivan T]

30000lbs of hay?

Wouldnt it be better to leave farm work to a tractor.

I recommend a McCormick as i design them. (am i allowed to try and sell tractors on the forum??)

McCormick=International?

IvanT, It depends on what you are doing. If you have to haul hay from a field to a barn several miles away and you have to get on a public road to do that, using a tractor for that is not as practical as using a pickup and gooseneck flat bed trailer. Or if you sold a trailer load of hay and had to deliver it 30 miles away. it would be ineffeciant to road your tractor that far pulling a trailer load of hay. Or if you haul hay for a living, It's just faster to use a pickup & trailer.

Roof markers are the orange lights along the top of the cab. I have always heard them called "running lights" which may or may not be correct. I prefer to not have them. I do like that F-350!

[ATC crazy]

AWESOME TRUCK. I like the running lights (roof markers) It gives the truck a "Big Rig" look. My favorite truck would have to be the 1979 F-350 custom. I love them things. But, for now, I'll have to stick to my '75 International Travelall ;)

[Honda300ex]

We got a 78 F-250 custom.. its pretty nice.. but i has a flatbed on it.. :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

[HemiChallenger71]

Where's HondATC and his bad ass 460 powered f-250???

[PowerTrike]

Nice truck. My favorite late model Ford bodystyle (i hate the new one) Hey HondaATC, do you have any pics of your beast? I don't think I've seen it or at least not since you were going though it agian...

[Billy Golightly]

I haven't done alot of real cosmetic stuff since the last time you guys seen it (I think) I have had my bed off in the shop for about 3 monthes now trying to get it prepped for painting. But I'm a very un-paitent person and am having a real hard time sitting down and doing the bondo work (All the sanding and stuff). I still intend to pull my motor out and clean up the engine compartment + paint the engine and the misc parts before I finish the outside of it. Then I would start on my interrior, which will be, to say the least, very interesting.

I think Iv'e got some more recent pictures, but their on my moms computer at the office. When I did pull the bed off I pressure washed my frame, and the bed very well with e high power 4500psi pressure washer and got 30 years of mud and crap from off of it. I put about 4 quarts of rust oleum gloss black on the frame/rear end and other places I seen that needed it. Also got some chrome rims (steel ones). I've been thinking about maybe trying to swap my motor and tranny setup into a 92 F-150 we have that has a EFI 302 in it (Worthless). But the kit to do it is like $1200 and I don't really wana abandon my 77 project so I guess I'll just stick with it and finish it when I'm 80 years old :P

I'm no Ford man, but that is a NICE TRUCK!

Edit: Diesel rules! Is it a manual or slushbox?

[ATCRYDER]

If you guys think thats a "dream truck", ya oughta see my Father's F350. 02 Model. Custom in every way, no truck is like his. Highered fromt he factory, Highest Luxury Package, 7.2L Diesel, Dually, Long Bed. Ill post some pics later on if I find time to find the photos.

Puts my Little Ram 1500 To shame. =0)

Investing in a Dakota Short Bed, Ext. Cab, V6 later this year I think, If not another Ram Magnum 1500 or 2500.

[ATC crazy]

7.2L Diesel,

Don't you mean the 7.3?

[ATCRYDER]

No.

Its a 7.2L Powerstroke V8 if im not mistaken. Fords putting 6.0's in its new one apparently.

[J.D.]

Never in my life have I heard of a 7.2L Diesel from Ford, I think you mean 7.3 Rob....

[Billy Golightly]

Yes...the most recent Deisel engines in Fords are the 6.9's (From the 80's) the 7.3 (From the early 90's until recently) and the new 6.0

[Ivan T]

Whats the rules on brakes for the trailers behind pick-ups?

Is there a weight limit? we have a 3.5 tonne limit over here.

[ATC crazy]

Ya...Ford never had a 7.2L

[ATCRYDER]

yep. 7.3L it is!
