Turn on all of your lights, put on the electric defroster if you have one, turn on the A/C and the heat, plug in one of those electric coolers into the lighter anything else that's electric turn on, then go for a little cruise, just enough to get into high gear and lock up the torque converter ...say 35 or 40 MPH, your alternator will quit. Don't buy new Fords anymore, not until they partner with Charmin and print their warranties on toilet paper so they'll be of some use. This attitude is inspired by my last F-150.. the one with with a leaky rear window (their all that way there's nothing we can do about it) and the mighty 258 V-7 (no they all run like that , there's nothing wrong all 4.6 V-8's spark knock above 25% throttle) Wrote Ford, they didn't do much.

To the newcomer planning to restore the machine, this means you have everything you need for the moment (something to sit in the shop and just look at for awhile while you read the books). To the newcomer that wants to get out and use the machine for field work, you may have already hit a major roadblock. That is the dreaded "proprietary hitch". With the exception of the
