End of the line for this old truck 1969 F100
- Thread starter Breakaway500
- Start date
I recall older model Ford keys fit ignition on one vehicle and door locks on another. Didn't have to look very far to find one that worked.
OP
The end. 
Goodbye ole friend. The parts will live on!
I may rebuild the engine and sell it,depending on how the bores clean up. Or just part it all out.
Just the cylinder heads are worth $2k as cores..and the Shelby original valve covers bring $600 on eBay.
Crazy what old parts are going for but the supply is drying up so it's a sellers market.

I love the Hurst handle on the shifter. I had that exact same set up on "Ol Redd" my 1968 F100 Ranger (first vehicle) 351 Cleveland (Mustang transplant) with 4 spd (no jam nut so it was tightened to that exact same angle)......Somehow shifting with that Hurst handle really made you feel "bad" haha
It's now got a 429 with a built C6 and my kids love to ride around and make noise!
Glad to see the CJ getting a new lease on life, even if it's for someone else. Love to see FE engines making a comeback tour!

I wish I knew how to do that stuff. Tearing it apart, no problem. Making it work again, well, it isn't gonna happen. Every time I get near a vehicle with a tool in my hand, it gets frightened, fixes itself, and runs away! Good luck with your sale$ of part$!
