That is a sweet silver. I've seen it on newer F150's.No, I decided to go with the current Iconic Silver, eventhough I have only seen it on pics. It looked great on all cars I saw so I hope it turns out good. Everything that was a fading black will be painted gloss black.
And when my bank account recovers, I'm getting a set of black mesh wheels to match.
Took a ride up to the Chocolate Fox show in Hershey, Pa Saturday. After a 65 mile ride I was sitting in line waiting to get in and the car started to shake and puke oil smoke out of the exhaust. More prominent out of the passenger side. I quickly got out of line and they parked me in a great spot by the show area. I left out early and was able to limp my way home without needing a tow.
Working 12’s all week so I’ll do a compression test and tear into it in a couple weeks. The only good news is that my new lift is in and I pick it up early next week, just in time if the motor needs to come out.

Wow that's less than I would have thought. I wonder what my full weight coupe weighs. I do have a IRS. I have a scale at work, may have to check.View attachment 1703980
I weighed my hatchback... full interior car, supercharger, c4... I was shocked how light she is.
I'm gonna pull 200lbs out now.
Sounds like valve seals. Thatvexacr thing happened to me while waiting in line at a county fair in my old 81
Sorry to hear about your motor issue, Brian. But your lift being in is certainly awesome news. That will really make working on your Fox much less "painful". I hope you resolve the issue quickly so that you can get back to enjoying it on the road.
You mentioning Hershey made me think that I should make a trip down there during the summer months. My wife and I don't get there very often, but it's always been one of our favorite destinations. We always love smelling the chocolate in the air.
Hopefully fixed. I did a couple heat cycles, then retorqued the bolts. Drove it a bit yesterday and brought it back to the shop this morning.View attachment 1704166View attachment 1704167

So noted for next year, Brian!Bob next year during this show would be a perfect opportunity to visit Hershey. The weather is perfect this time of year.
Nice to get the motor running. They look good together. But....you should hang some large, cool Ford banners on those bare interior walls. LOL.Hopefully fixed.

I'm kinda a boring person. I'll probably hang up a couple stuff, but don't want it to over do it. The white walls help with lighting.Nice to get the motor running. They look good together. But....you should hang some large, cool Ford banners on those bare interior walls. LOL.
