The thread is funny because everyone thought it was a photochop until the owner finally posted pictures showing how he made it from two salvaged cars.

Ahh, my bad. I thought I've seen everything on the thread so far and must have missed it. Nice reference though, hah.. I read most of it and it's hilarious how many people thought it was fake.

I actually thought it was initially too just because I saw those two marks/dots on the middle window and assumed it was a misalignment from the edit, hah.

This was in the search field on one of our dispatcher's computers.

He says he was looking for a Kingpin sound wave, but we're not believing him, and have completely forbid him from proving it.

LOL, nice. But his excuse could be valid. I explicitly remember that scene in the movie (Kingpin) when Roy was trying to sneak Ishmel (sp?) out of the hotel room, without waking that girl, and he fell. Then he actually said "I think I ripped my sack" and Ishmel repeated him, lol. That movie's great.

wow just wow that F-650 is amazing the bed tilts up to unload the ATV .......good god man I only need 1/32 of your $$$$$!!!!

the 2.9L powered sport looks great! I wouldnt wish that on my worst emeny, but the conversion looks 100% stock, even the airbox was changed over... I guess a $200 used 4.0L OHV was too hard to come by that day

Weird

when did Ford stop making the 2.9L? 1992 thats right it was still used in CA trucks with MAS until 1992.... I wonder
I dont see a MAS in the pics but something has been removed right there and the airbox does not have a round opening for the tube......1992 2.9L Sport from the FACTORY?
who knows, I have seen a 1991 4 door with two fuel pumps, looked factory to me, you never know what Ford did

If he goes back to the junk yard, get him to check the VIN, it might give some info.

It was definitely NOT stock. The give away was the belt routing sticker on the core support that read 4.0L.

Oh yeah- it's there, but we're not going to believe him.
