Now this is the 300+ thousand friend I get into daily and go wherever I want, always starts, got an ignition module pickup coil and rotor in the glove box along with the new roll pin, tools to fix it punch screwdriver small flex ratchet and socket and distributor wrench.

Keep it up, work the positive lock 4:10 and the U Joints, Trans fluid change, and wheel bearings every year. Drag a 4000 Ford or 450 Turbo Case and equipment on the trailer almost all the time.
 
Scanned some old photos onto my computer. Found these... inside the great pyramid in egypt, the way up to see Khufu's broken crypt. It was over 100f, humidity dripped from stone, kept high by peoples sweat and breath. Yes climbing up in the pyramid was as bad as it sounds. And smelled as bad too, stagnant and rank, not enough oxygen, gave me a headache. Parts of it i had to stoop over to climb, my back was killing me!!! It was a long way up, reminded me of picking cotton...

I finally found a little utility trailer I can use for alot of stuff. It was in my budget too!
The only rusty scratches are up front where road rocks hit the paint over the years..no rust through just the paint nicks.
Removable rubber mats with 2x6 flooring. 4 foot solid sides and a sturdy latching drop gate and tie down hocks everywhere. The guy gave me a canvas tarp that's made to fit over the top too. Tires are in good shape.
I might have to get a adapter or change the plug in to fit on my truck. It has a flat 4 plug too , the one on my truck has some corrosion in one of the holes. If I cant get it to work I'll just change it out.
I've been wanting one for awhile. And I didnt have to drive to another state to pick one up..yea! It was 35 minutes down the road!
