Rubber Lift

Tom borrowed a set of 38 x 12.5 x 15 Super Swampers from a guy he worked with. You guessed it! Had to see them on the truck. Looks like a monster. It was so big I couldn't get in it without help. Looks good!!! During the frame swap, Tom had gotten a Ford 360 big block to install in his truck from another guy he was working with. We paid $200 for this engine and knew absolutely nothing about its history. It seemed to run just fine. This turned out to be a good investment because we soon after drove this 1979 Ford F-250 from near Birmingham, AL to Northern Michigan to pick up a 1971 slide in camper. We loaded up this antique, heavy camper and headed back to our new home near Mammoth Cave, Kentucky. The truck ran fine except for the 2 blown tires we were forced to deal with on this 700 mile journey back to the south. Some time after this road trip, Tom had to replace this 360 with a Ford 460 Big Block. The 360 was using excessive oil and had a burnt valve. This 1979 is what we are currently using to pull our service trailer for our new, very, small company.
