Default New plan guys

well, my dad got talking to one of his buddys *Cough cough(sp? its early)* Rich *Cough Cough* and so now my dads totally against the ranchero. not out of spite of me or anything, he just wants me to have an airbag, so ive decided that i want/will get one of the later model 4.6's, 2000-2004. me and my dad are still gonna rebuild the engine, just keep the longblock components stock, maybe have them refurbished and machined or something, and keep it in case i ever decide to sell the car (god forbid) but, no more ranchy

Air bags are nice but 2004 your should get a car with esp which is really good for safety. it allows you to turn and brake at the same time.

I have a newer driver to compliment my old stuff. If he is footin the bill, dont worry about it, just drive like you have a brain and enjoy the newer ride. Keep workin on the old one and build a car you can cruise arond it..

its not like youwant to have your classic pride and joy that you slaved over for months/years/decades in the parkin lot at school gettin all beat up by kids in corsicas and neons...

Hmmmm,

4.6, Kenne-Bell, MM K-member, Cobra IRS,...

Yeah, I guess that *might* suffice. Awe gee's if you have to settle, I guess that's better than a 2x4 with skate wheels. What we have to give up in the name of safety. Oh well.
