Just picked it up at the auction today. 1978 F250 Camper Special with only 62000 original miles. Grandpa passed away and the daughter had to sell it to pay taxes. This thing is a beautiful, unrestored, original truck. Dual Tanks, Cruise, AC, matching topper. 460 Automatic. Rust free, Bondo free.

Check it out. I may put it on E-Bay well see,...

Michigan doesnt care what ya do with vehicles, ya just have to drive around to the local farms. Many of the trucks are running detroits or other random engines.

My cousin and I swapped motors between vehicles all the time, we took them to the dmv or the sheriffs office if we didnt have a title and everything was processed pretty smoothly.

Mind ya, this was a small town, I bet Detroit or Lansing are 1000 times worse to deal with!

Darrin, have you ever considered trying to sell those trucks further north? A truck like that would probably sell for twice your asking price up here in canada.
