Friend blew my 86 F150 transmission...
I have an 86 F150, by god it was my first car...it was my dads work truck when i was in high school and he bought a 1990 brand new because he was putting 40,000 a year on it. Gave it to me with 95,000 at the time and it has 170k on it now. Replaced the tranny and even the engine. I let my friend drive it to work because his girlfriend smashed his mustang GT (its a 2006 convertible). Shes an idiot and is the reason I am single....too many girls just do not know how to drive. It's really that bad. Well here's how it went, he revved the engine up straight out to as far as it would go, 5500 is the limit, dropped it into drive....the truck did a huge burnout and then grinded really bad to a halt. He said he thought it would just be like dropping the clutch in his GT. I said you f'n IDIOT. you IDIOT. Hes writing me a check for $2000 because I had that C-6 built up with a shift kit and everything...pisses me off. I may NEVER get a tranny built that good again now, because that guy that built it is dead. I feel like shooting this guy man...I'm so pissed off. I've never neutral-bombed any cars before.
I put a brand new engine in that truck cost me $4000 after the mods, 5.0L with forged crank, pistons, good cam and head, holley carbs etc. It puts out good V8 power and sounds bad *** when i start it up. It's actually a pretty fast truck and it will PEEL OUT and lay marks if you just floor the gas off the line..its funny.
Anyone ever neutral drop their autos?
Sorry for the long letter but im just so pissed.

what an idiot. I hope you get the tranny back to where it was. Sounds like you have a sweet truck there... I have a few buddies that would drool all over it, and NOT have any intentions of screwin it up.
