Makes sense Ian. Vintage it is.

That's the plan :)

The inside of your Brave looks as nice as the outside.

I hope I can live up to that standard with my renovation.

"Wow Ian - that Brave looks perfect; excellent job!"

Ditto to that. Looks like a new one!

Fair amount of water damage, thus the low price. Nothing un-repairable though. Worst is the cab over...

Thanks Ian!

I bought this for a very low price as a blank canvass more or less and didn't get concerned about checking every detail as I would were I spending more. It was a good deal for me...

Well, it beats me how "Gertrude" popped into my head on the way home. Seems to fit for some reason I cannot explain.

"Gertrude" is home this evening. Six new tires and she made the 1.5 hour trip just fine. Drove well, noticed no issues other than the front brakes are worn out. I examined the rear rotors while the...

Understood :)

I've owned 4 houses plus a rental and a beach house. Of the 4 lived in, 3 were fixer uppers in one way or another. The first was just an old 1930's...

Good point neub. I checked the vin # this morning and it shows as a 1998 E450 Super Duty, so now I at least know what I have and I'm happy it's a 450 rather than the 350.

Good suggestion BobC....

Thanks again. Looks like from the the rock auto listings that "Super Duty" in '98 is the E450 and different parts than the E350.

I also see that Autozone carry's the parts and has them in stock...
