Default 1941 Ford Pickup on the road now...finally
The "GRAPE CHRUSHER" breathes. It has been a six year project with some problems to solve but, it is complete except for a front bumper install and cab upholstery to be finished. Three stromberg 97's, Offie heads, crab distributor, L100 cam all on a 276 late block. A 5 speed trans. from an S10 pickup is a joy to use. I like shifting and getting some screech when I shift into second and third.

Looks fantastic.
Ready to head up to the hills for a load of firewood?
Or, out to the pasture for a load of manure?
