i found this jewel on local craigslist,fella was asking $3500 for it. went and looked at it without much expectation. much to my supprise the body was straight(albeit a hodgepodge of 82-92 body parts). i bought it as a 1982 w350 4spd 340 truck,2000's alloy ford 17in wheels with good tires and an 89 non i/c 12v,727 with adapters and a 205 transfer. the 12v and afore mentioned goodies were not mentioned in the ad. end of the deal walked away with the whole package for $2250 plus another hood,grill,fuel tank,fenders and dana 80 that i plan on turning in to a dana 80 front. only reason i even looked at the truck was because it had a running 340 in it and i wanted a spare 340 long block as a spare for my dart. sold the 4spd,transfer with pro drive winch and the gas fuel tank for $1,000. i got the 12v in and the 727 is apart on my bench waiting till i get time to put all the goodies in it. all the internals are from PATC trans. the best of the best they had. bands,clutches,springs,the whole deal. trans-action manual valve body and hurst quarter stick. few pics if i can get them to post.
