Find all the parts you need to restore a classic vehicle. Gulf Coast Info has a special interest in a big old truck. My kids call it the rumbly truck. A 1992 Ford F 350 crew cab with a 7.3 liter diesel IDI (normally aspirated - no turbo) that was purchased new in 1992. GCI also has been thru a couple of MG's, a 1968 Bronco, a 1976 International Scout, a 1973 Cutlass Supreme, a 1973 Chevy Cheyenne and a Alpha Romeo 2000 GTV (I forget the year on this one). All have them have been a lot of fun an some of them I hope to have again. Over the years parts have become harder to find resulting in constant search for quality parts suppliers.
