+2. Mine runs between 195 and 210 on the right coast.

+1 on Bendpak.  I don't have a storage lift, but my 2-post lift is built well.  I put a cheap lift in at my shop and wasn't thrilled with it.

They seem to have a pretty good selection.  Maybe they have other suppliers?  My car is retired from concours, and I've heard too many people complain about the repro battery, so I use a topper.

Has anyone tried here?  I would have called but they're in VA and closed now.

I bought a 24' Atlas.  Starting price was around $5500.  I added screw less exterior with .040" thick skin, 5500 lb drop axles, escape door, rubber flooring, finished interior walls, winch and battery.  Ended up around $13,000.  Extras seem to add up quick!  My only complaint is the flimsy angle aluminum trim on the ramp tore off when tire spun while loading.  It's on my list of things to do.  Pull it with an F450.

That's the style I used. Seems to give a better flow rate than the factory design.  I used a 160 degree.

Let's hope so!  Otherwise, he might be moving a bed into his office.   ;)

Brian,  your wife must have the patience of a saint!  Not the first time I've seen pictures of parts and memorabilia taken on the almost white carpet!  Very cool!   ;D

1000 ft-lb of torque is not that impressive considering that truck came from the factory with over 900 (925 I think).  An aftermarket tune would probably get you over 1000 easily.  Maybe once the warranty is up on my truck, I'll play with that.    ;D

That font on the radial T/As didn't come out until the early 80s.  A year or two after I started as a "Tire Toad".    ;)

Amazing!  A little bit of everything.  I'm surprised he doesn't have an F code Thunderbird.  Maybe I should sell him mine.    ;)
