Well i went and did it...we finally got the title back on the wifes car and now i gots me an Errrrrl burner...

even up swap for a 99 grand am w/ 104k on the clock

88 F250 4x4 w/ 7.3L idi w/ banks turbo kit 5spd and 86,000 miles IP has been turned up a bit and has had some repair work...so far i figure i got cab corners to do and a little bit of rust proofing underneith but the rest of the body is in very nice shape...

the truck drives very nice only issue is the brakes are soft. it may need a new m/c or might just need to be bleed. no biggie. would hold 70mph @ 2200rpm so it should be pretty good on fuel.

now i just to sell off my F150 and ill be payment free!! woohoo
