Lookin for a box...

[phayzer5]

... in this order:

1. CV/GM 2dr
2. '86+ towncar; an '84 will work too. (Whatever the yr, I'll bring a waterfall grill if it doesn't have one...
3. '88+ CV/GM
4. The rest

Dark colors preferred, although a white vic with porno red interior is a nice combo too. In the end what I'm looking for is a good, reliable car. I don't mind fixing some things, but nothing more than minor Vato Zone parking lot stuff. If it's not within a days drive of north central Florida - I want to fly up, do the paperwork, and be able to drive it back. If it cant do that its not worth my time. I've replaced a shattered rocker arm on the side of I-75 in BFE, GA, but i don't plan on carrying spares with me, so not looking for a repeat.

Let me know what ya got/find. Sub-$1500 is ideal, but I can do more for the right candidate.

Thx in adv!

Don't you already have an 84 Towncar?

[phayzer5]

Yes, but its not really a daily driver kind of car... and has no a/c.

Also, I want something that can use to tow it to somewhere i can either work on it or take the engine out and hand to the local speed shop to dynotune that damn holley. I've lived ~50 miles away from it going on 3 years and don't really have the time to drive an hour each way and haul my tools on my motorcycle whenever i want to tinker. At least i keep the thing around and haven't completely abandoned it; why I'm not quite sure

But this thread ain't about that car. The only boxes in my immediate area are overpriced rats nests and grandpa's 6k garage queens

The plot thickens... I found a local deal on a blue 1974 F-100 2wd

Will update tonight if i get it home

Made it home with this beast:

Engine/tranny are from a 77 ltd (351m, how do i identify c6 or fmx?) Came with both white tool boxes, a pair of fenders and doors, door panels, cluster, hood, original front bumper, original wheels, and a bunch of good small parts for the 70s f-series that he grabbed from the yard when he found em. Even includes a gun rack in the window I'll take better pics and go treasure hunting in the bed/boxes in the next few weeks and let y'all know what i find.

$700 and i drove the thing home
