No, but....
That one went to my tranny guru.
He rebuilt that one and resold it.
I do have 2 spare TH350s.
The one I am offering and that Luvrv8 spoke of was my 700R4+convertor.

I decided to go the TH-400 built!
Extra torque I felt was better suited to using a TH-400.
I didnt want to break a 700R4 with THAT much torque.

ahh. not really lookin for a overdrive unit. it isnt going to be driven as much with the v8. mostly just a track truck and weekend playtoy.

i dont think i could afford the shipping for the tranny, let alone what it would cost to buy it! lol

Blew the fenders and the grille right off that ranger right? and knocked it over the head with a ugly stick...:lol:

But on a serious note Farmer your truck looks a lot better since you've lowered it and painted the headlight buckets.

well its almost next month again. i get paid on the 2nd, and after bills are paid for the month, the rest is going towards the truck to get it roadworthy. i WILL be driving this truck next month for sure! the rearend in the pup isnt going to last much longer, so i need to get the luv going. that and i want to start taking the pup apart for the engine rebuild.

ive already got a huge list of stuff i have to do to the luv too.

drain the gas tank
blow out the fuel lines
un foul the spark plugs
bolt down the seats
bleed the brakes
bleed the clutch system
put the taillights back in and hook up the wiring
check if all the lights still work
get 2 new headlights
the side marker rings need put back on
put the lowering blocks in the back
put an alternator back on it
get it running again :?

i also want to get some new used tires for it too. right now it has 2 flats in the front and 2 oddballs in the back. im gonna run my chrome 14s on it, so i wanna get 4 185-70s for it. i dont think some used 14s will be that expensive. i guess ill find out.

i think they were from 72-77.

i got the last year for them. not sure that i want to keep them though. i like the open windowed door better.
