The latest, and hopefully last, Ram truck I've purchased.
First day home:
A few mods later, on a road trip to Southern Oregon:
Another road trip, this time from Oregon on our move to Arizona:
A friend's photoshop render of the truck showcasing our new location here in Apache Junction:

2014 Mercedes C300 sport sedan. She was a trade-in at my local FORD dealership where I sometimes have my Explorer serviced. Only 60,000 miles on the clock and all of the extras I like without any extra crap. It really "scoots" compared to my last few vehicles . . .

An update... Finally got some off-site pics of my current 242...
Also took the wagon to the same location about 30 minutes or so later, while out running errands.
Location is the Odell Road western side trailhead for the Tolt Pipeline Trail in Duvall, Washington.

Very cool. I really like the truck based hot rod concepts. That looks like something inspired by the Blastolene brothers like their Piss'd Off Pete or Sneaky Pete except this is a Kenworth so maybe Kenny G or Ken Doll, or if you like green and are a wrestling fan Ken Shamrock. If my wife was driving it I could go with Mother Trucker.
Had some work done last year in October;
-Holley 4150 carb w/ dual feed + Marshall pressure gauge (replaced a Holley 4160)
-K&N X-treme air filter assembly
-Ford Racing valve covers/breathers
-Borgerson power steering
-Tremec T5 (American Powertrain)
-Hydraulic clutch
-Wilwood manual master cylinder (calipers presently SSBC)
-3.80 ratio Yukon ring & pinion
-Traction bars (welded)
-KYB shock absorbers
-15" Vision Daytona wheels
-Cooper Cobra Radials
Full resto in 2010 by Blue Sky Performance & Restoration (Budd Lake, NJ) and the 331CI Stroker motor was built by Hansen Racing (Middlesex, NJ).
Dyno tuned to 310 HP/360 FT LBS @ the wheels.
It HAD pwr brakes, but the the holes for the clutch linkage/master were blocked by the power booster, so....actually, they are BETTER! Yes, more "leg" is needed but that keeps you focused on driving, if you get my drift.
All in all, VERY happy with the performance & look, especially banging thru the gears, the baritone roar of the exhaust announcing my intention; fuN, fUN, FUN!!!...and, since this is a Mustang, I'm not a girl and I got no daddy (he passed from Covid complications last Feb...RIP Dad), ain't NOBODY gonna be taking this away!

I've had my 66 Mustang all my life. My parents bought it new in San Diego. I've probably touched every nut and bolt. it isn't very original and needs paint but is a lot of fun. We drive it everywhere. it is at my son's house now under cover waiting for Spring.
