86 F250 work truck LOL

Wow it has been a long time since I have been on this site and posted in this thread. The truck hasn't changed much. Although I did a few engine upgrades. I did a mass air flow conversion in it with a fox body mustang pcm. I have also been gathering body parts to make it rust free and get it looking good.

The touch screen dvd player is gone and I put a pioneer head unit in with Bluetooth in it. I put a set of Goodyear Duratracs on it with some wagon wheel style rims on it. The black tool box is gone and it has a diamond plate one on it. The western plow pump is gone and I put an all electric Meyers pump on it. I couldn't keep the cable style adjusted correctly.

Other than that I have been driving it and using it as a work truck. I also have a set of axles from an F-350 with 4.56 gears in them. When I get time I will be getting the rest of the work done to it.

It's not so much sad as it is old. I took the air cooled Wisconsin engine out and put a water cooled Kubota diesel in it. It does need a new bucket yet and a few other things but I have less than $1000 in it so I can't complain.

Yeah that was the first test drive. I of course had to spin it around a bit.

Thanks Eric, it was a bigger project than I expected it to be.

So some of the other stuff I have gathered is a parts truck. This one has a pretty decent cab on it. It only needs a cab corner on each side. I only paid 300 for the truck and I already have cab corner patch panels. I picked up a rust free box a while back. The box is bent up a little but not bad.

Parts truck.

Well I am still trying to get the fuel injected 351W to run correctly since doing the mass air flow conversion. I did just realize I had the crank case vent hooked up incorrectly and the air that was going through the pcv valve was not getting metered by the MAF. I think at this point my fuel injectors are leaking past or not working as well as they could be. I just purchased a set of the newer style 4 hole injectors for it. I am hoping that takes care of the poor fuel mileage and stumbling at lower rpm.
