    I wish I could relate...I've got the only Mustang in town? JK ;-) I do have a really nice book to show others what they look like though!

    1968 Script Template

    It would actually be quite hard in comparison. It's actually easier to just tape the paper on, trace the back and top body lines, punch the holes by sticking the emblems back in and tracing around the emblems for added insurance and send it to someone as opposed to going out and building a...

    Wanted Small Block Ford engine near Idaho

    Well...my mechanic/best friend told me to put a gm 350 in it, parts galore, cheap, easy to find, lot's of power. It's a standing lifetime joke, best friends for life and he's always been a chev guy and me a Ford guy. He was serious but he already knew my answer. He also knows how little I care...

    Wanted Small Block Ford engine near Idaho

    390 is one that I'm looking at. I've never owned a 390 so I'm not that familiar with them, good? Bad? I had a 352 once in a 66 F250 and it was like a sewing machine, super reliable and lot's of power. Don't see many 352's for sale, at least not locally, What I'd love is a Y Block, love the old...

    Wanted Small Block Ford engine near Idaho

    In all honesty I'm also entertaining big blocks so if you have a big block I may be interested as well depending upon what it is and how much.

    Wanted Small Block Ford engine near Idaho

    I may very well be interested in the 351C, I'm taking in all the offers. I fully plan on rebuilding what ever I get unless of course the purchase is a completely rebuilt engine. I do plan on building it to be quick so the 4v options would have to be a part of the deal. I'm heading over to the...

    Wanted Small Block Ford engine near Idaho

    Thanks guys, Steve, right now that sounds like a great candidate for what I'm looking for, close, a trip I've wanted to make etc. I have a great friend that's a wrench, has been all his life and I can get it built for a very reasonable price. You say it's complete, define complete. Intake...

    Soda or Sand

    Looks like a nice outfit, any issues with painting after sodablasting, I'm hearing the soda leaves a film that must be removed, works good for bare metal protection but makes painting a little more of a chore in the prep work.

    Soda or Sand

    Nothing found via internet search, when I get close I'll call some local auto body shops and see what options I have beyond just sanding my butt off.

    1968 Script Template

    I suppose I could but it's not really that kind of a template, it's a large piece of paper that has been attached to the car and the body lines marked out and the holes for the script punched through the paper. It has to be actual size to do you any good, there aren't any measurements on the...
