Where did I find my car? In the classifieds section of the paper, it was an old Ukrainian guy selling it. He wanted to keep it and take it down to Vegas or something and then give it to his 14 year old grandson. Apparently the kid loved the car and wanted it as his first; we paid the guy with cash.

We took it for a test drive, just to see if it handled correctly. We took it on a side road and I put my foot down. That was when I fell in love with the car, that low end torque was addicting. I let my dad drive it because after all my opinion doesn't matter, but when he stepped on it he went about 20 kms faster than I did!

Sweet sounds like a cool story it is a nice car right now im pretty mad and dissapointed so the heater core well thanks to fords dumb ass enginering you have to rip the whole dash out like man we started ripping out tonight

 and got so far but there was still to much involved they put it in a stupid place and its like a 720.00 repair bill at the shop because it will take them a days labour and stuff so oohh booy its not looking good

Welcome to the board Dustin.... that's a sweet looking ride, not bad for a first car!
My son is 16 and  working on what was/is our 84. It will be signed over to him when he graduates, but it's basically his car. He has a lot of work to put into it, but I know he'll appreciate it so much when he's done and has it on the road. (Holy , I'm old enough to be your mom! :eek:)

I changed the heater core in mine a few years back. :punchballs: If it ever goes bad again, I will just take the heater hoses off and call it good. Who needs heat? Get a snowmobile suit.

Oh man, come to Sask. in the winter. You'll know why you need heat!

That reminds me someone was talking about their car and how it has every option except for the block heater!

OK ok ok ok, so you need heat up there, then mount an electric heater in the inside and call THAT good. I won't change a heater core again, not because its a pain in the a$$, but I don't know if the brittle dash and all its components can take that kind of abuse again.:barf:

As for knowing places to get it fixed I have none. We only take our cars into the shops for either engine rebuilds, trans rebuilds or exhaust work (mostly custom).

Kind of off topic but have you seen this truck driving around?



It's my dads, just thinking about custom exhaust reminded me of his D.D.

Oh and my names Matt so you don't have to call me 302 anymore. :D
