Been wanting another dent side for a while. Not really sure what all is gana be done to it but for now it's a cool around town cruiser.
69 f250 with a clapped out straight 6, 4 speed manual. Trying to keep it old school right now so built some 5" lift beams with longer radius arms and dual...
Waiting on some parts from Carter to finish the spare mount and need to figure out a jack mount,rewire the battery and replumb the fuel cell. Hopefully try and take it out this weekend
Finally getting around to fixing the truck. Truck ran great and felt strong at the point 300. Everything was going great till I knocked the drain plug out of the dif and blew it up 28 miles short of the checkered flag. Threw in a new 3rd member with a little more gear. Decided to change around...

Finally got the truck out to a race. Was having a blast and it was working pretty good. Right up until I smoked a big rock with the driver side beam halfway through the first lap. Pulled into the pits and realized we had 2" of up travel before the beam was smashing into the passenger side mount...
I think the slate makes a lot of sense for people in big city's that need a little truck. I dig the concept of it. I bought a xl maverick at the beginning of the year because I needed a new daily that got good MPGs and could still do parts runs. Can't beat 30+mpg and still fit 5 35s in the back
