My newish build ( just finished this last September) 49 Dodge WC-30 1 Ton Power Wagon! Old School Cool, WAY too much to list for custom and one off, but she is rock steady, reliable, and as tough as old boots! 3.9 Cummins turbo running 50 psi of boost, makes 430+ HP before it runs out of fuel, backed to a Dodge A-47 Auto box that's been seriously fortified and that is backing a Clark 3 speed, three stick transfer case High, Low, and Crawler with electric locking center diff and front and rear dig! Axles are newer ( 2014 and later) Dodge Dana 60 front and Dana 70 rear converted Back to the Old School Dana BUDS Hubs so I can run the stock rims, but with New power disk brakes and power cross steering, Also has the Eaton E-Lockers and 4:30 gears vs the stock 5:38's! This thing weighs 8400 pounds dry, and tops out on the freeways at 80, but its kinda scary above 60! LOL She crawls like no other, and looks super cool doing it too! Taking it to Sand Hollow this spring, then off to MOAB after, then back up to Reno to do the Rubicon before heading back to Colorado to do all the Mountain Pass Trails later this summer once they start opening up!

No Joke, those Ol Fords were pretty damn capable, and even better with the 4X4 conversion, the ONLY limit was traction of the very limited tires and no
lockers!

Now, do that conversion on a Ford AA "C" Cab and you Really got somethin!
New idea for a project?,...................................Maybe!

I was thinkin more Old School traditional to the period, but with a few modern touches, like Power Steering and Brakes, and more robust axle assemblies!


BTW, that Last Ford, the "Wrecker," I saw it runnin around Sand Hollow Utah during the First Wrecker Games, it was pretty cool lookin, but VERY limited suspension wise, looked very rough and uncomfortable runnin on the dunes and worse, on the rocks!

The original versions of these A-Bones were for rural mail delivery in snowy areas.

This is the group I race with. Every car in our class has a clutch pedal.

I went on-line to get a "month plate sticker". Since I was there, also thought about renewing my license it's coming up soon. It says its gonna give me a Real ID too. There were no option just to get the license so didn't pursue.

Yeah, you don't have a choice anymore. You'll need to go in person and bring a bunch of official crap

I'm gonna write Tulsi Gabbard....

Nearly 5 years ago there were Equifax Data Breach and my name was on the list too. Someone open up a credit line under my name till I saw it my monthly screening. So I took care of that with extra measures, filing a police report and counting the collection agency. Anyways I was sent a settlement form. was asking 700.00 plus 45.00 for my time and expenses.
It took them 3 years to settle this and they sent me a check for $35.00. So I Returned the check and put them in the better business bureau and collections. t only took them less than a minute to approve anyone under my name and it took me 2 to 3 days to clear my name... ts just a fact that these people are sharing information even to a the world country. I'm not going to this again because there will be a time that I won't be looking at my account anymore every single day. There are just so many of them and its just a fact that we presently people in washington that their lives is totally disorganized. The worst thing would do is to trust them...
in fact here's another one....

If Chevy came out with a production K5 Blazer with the 6.2 V8 (preferably manual tranny, but not likely), 4:1 transfer case and lockers in both axles, I would replace my Bronco with one in a heartbeat.

A friend of mine had a F-100 with a bloody great big V-8 in it (I think it was a 460CI) with a carb. He had a switch hidden under the dash for an electric fuel pump. When leaving it anywhere he would turn off the pump and run it until the float bowl was empty and the engine being starved of fuel would quit.

The red 72 Bronco that I had in 1 of the first pages of this thread had 10 on/off switches under the dash on a panel that had to be in a certain pattern before it would start. Of coarse crime wasnt as bad back then either.
