1973 Ford F250 review from North America
"Beast"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When I bought this beast it had some carb. issues, and no A/C, oil leak, and no radio.
General comments?
My truck is pretty quick, has a c-6 and 3.73;1 gears, I fixed the crappy 2 barrel carb and heavy manifold with eldebrock alunimum manifold and 750 cfm 4 barrel double pumper holley carb, too much carb, but oh well.
