Post by: TAKID455 on November 21, 2009, 09:22:11 AM: Sort of how I found my 74. not a 73, but still 1 of 212. sat for 23 yrs. Now mechanically done and shredding rubber. the 72 t/a was found in a side lot covered up. I also knew the owners of the 72. not a bad acquisition for doing a tune up on an F250.
