Just an old farm truck, a 1968 Ford F100 Camper Special, somebody once put a Buick tilt column in it but didn't get the right shift linkage so it's held together with safety pins. :) He's got a 390 with some sort of aftermarket heads, a mild RV cam, hooker full race headers, glass packs and tun downs right under the cab. A C6 with a Ford 9" trak-lock rear end with gearing I don't know, something high. He doesn't currently run, but he will. The truck's name is Wally, as in Wally Gator. My step dad had it when him and my mom were wed when I was about 4, I got to drive it when I was around 6. We had about 5 acres and a loop around the huse I got to drive, Louie's loop. I ran over a little maple tree once, and pulled a few rhody's out here and there, when my mom divorced my step dad, she took the truck and traded Wally and some cash to her friend for a newer truck. He then sat around for quite a while, and I just bought it off of her friend who had let it sit for several years. Paid $200, and am hoping to get him running and driving before I have to head off to college.
Apparently he was supposed to be mine when I turned 16 according to my step dad, Pat. I may have to wait until after college to properly restore him, but it will be done, and it will be done right. Eventually, though this is several years off, I plan to stroke out a 460 to a 572 to put in there, seeing as he's only 2wd. There's also a 4 speed laying in the bed that came with the truck that would be fun to have in there.
