My new old truck

[riverrat12]

Hey Mark, I love it. Motor runs good, nothing leaking. Only has 161,000 miles on it. Motor has been well maintained. I paid cash, so how much gas do I have to use to make up the differrence between a new truck and this one lol! Besides, old trucks are what I can afford. I can tell you this. Sunday I went fly fishing at a friends lake. The value of the fly fishing equipment that was being hauled was worth more than what I paid for the truck lol!

I drive a 97 Chevy and ain't about to get rid of it....as long as I can get parts, motors, transmissions and what have you, I'm keeping it....besides, the insides of the newer models just don't have the same smell as mine

[Tim_T]

actually its a smallblock 351

Embrey are you sure is is the smallblock? It really looks like the big block version, but I don't know what they came out with. I was told it was the original motor.

[Embrey]

theres no 351 big block in 89. 302 and 351 small block. unless its a 460 lol

[Chubminnow]

I've never heard of a 351 small Ford big block, ain't no such thing I don't think. I think big blocks for Ford started at 390 didn't they? Chevy on the other hand made a 396 Big Block but they also made a 400 small block.

Tim you have a small block.

[Tim_T]

Ford made two versions of the 351, Windsor and Cleveland. To the best of my knowledge, one of those was a big block.
