Too bad about the Black Turbo 900 being scrap. I've always had a little something for those for some bizarre reason.

Someone drove this in for scrap the other day. They drove it in with zero brakes.

It runs really good and is in descent shape so i get to do a brake job then my work is gonna try and sell it.

95 5.0l v8 auto 4x4



found the issue with the brakes





it needed a new caliper as the old one over extended. luckily we had a similar f150 that i was able to steal parts off of. brakes are done, took it for a few hot laps around the yard and its better than any of the 150's i have had.

Jesus christ, that body even looks in good shape. Cross the rockies and flip it for $3-4K. Score!
