Almost forgot, -thanks AK, I didn't think about googling the VIN. I am now and finding a lot of these have either been purchased and returned or just moved around a lot. Not a good sign.

Man, it great when a car-fax is readily available. This is a nice truck, bookmarked. But it's from the north and really wasn't crazy about the 4 door vs a little extra bed room. Fordguy2100 nailed the reason pretty good about the LB's., but still, with a standard bed it wouldn't be that big of a deal. Really just going for the Supercab, but harder to find.

I've been looking at Auto Trader listings, is there another you guys know of? I'm looking all over, from here out, I can, will travel for the right truck lol.

Hey, not a problem. We all throw something into the mix.

Whitey....as the weekend goes, and if it melts like it says, then I'll be able to get those wheels and sen you picture. I haven't forgot. We just had a snow February.

The other day, talking about a carb manifold for our modulars, I'll be damned if I didn't run across one that is being produced. I don't know the sales figures they plan on, but I was more worried about the ignition and what I'd have to add to put a carbed modular into something. Nah, I'll go Coyote before I ever went with that. Maybe find a Voodoo wrecked. I like that better.

It has Utah, Idaho, Wyoming.... sometimes Nevada. Really, in Utah the Craigslist is rarely used. Everyone uses KSL's classifieds.

Edelbrock sells a kit for the 4.6 that has the intake and a controller. No carb in the kit.... and it's about 1300 dollars, IIRC. Not cost effective for the guy in the other thread.... which I assume is something you've read?

EDIT: Looks like I am a teeny bit high on the price....

Ohhhh, and no rush on the wheels. Whenever is convenient for you!

I like carguru and autotempest. Autotempest was acting up the last time I tried it though.

Wise man on garagejournal once said "if you have a wife that buys you a tool chest you know you've found the right one"

I'd say that holds true; wife did perfect

Craigslist ? I wouldn't use that for this lol.

I tried the link and 8 trucks came up, some from a salvage dealer, only one posted engine size. Not a very good site. Seems like auto trader has it together, more popular I expect.
