80 Mustang, 4cyl, 4 spd. had it for 6 months and traded it straight across for a 75 T/A. The T/A reeked of beer and weed for some reason too :confused:

had an 88 4 Cyl 5 speed Ranger on Propane.... was gutless, but other than spinning a rocker arm I never had an issue with the engine.... had the tranny do some funky stuff one new years.... and then it got into a fight with the rear of a school bus and died.

Bought my first truck when I was 12. It started as a stock ish '66 chev long box and turned into a low rider on bags with a 400hp 350. Shaved handles, gas tank, mirrors, one piece flip up front fenders, and a sideways opening tailgate, and new /custom interior. It was a sweet a$$ truck. Wish I still had it.
