Maybe some of you haven't seen photos of my '67 Howard....
It's all cleaned up and ready to go for the Plowman's Creek weekend on the Brazos. That's a 427 FE, the interior was stitched by "Jack" in January '68, still in perfect condition. The gel is original, a few spider cracks but holding on....

I have a really cool red and white '66 Ford F-100, 352 FE 3-on-the -tree with overdrive. The shift tube wore out a few months ago and I'm looking for a NOS part to fix it.
The truck has an Edelbrock manifold, headers, and A/C, it's a great tow vehicle for the flattie. At 70 MPH in O/D it's turning 2100 RPM..... :hammer2: :D

My dad has a '64 Hallett with a H/M 427 medium riser in it.

Yeah, Don. Spotted it in Clarendon, TX, a wide spot in the road. I called the guy on the way back and gave him $3,500 for it. Spent a bit of money fixing the brakes and A/C, it runs great. I had looked around Dallas for one, found a bunch that were POS beaters selling for $5K plus.
The body is really straight, no rust either. I might repaint it to match the boat or dooya think the world isn't ready for that much metalflake?? :idea: :D :D :D
