Did the same with a 48 ford pickuop four winters in a row in the late 60s.


As long as I didn't try any hard turns, and spin out I could go anywhere even when all traffic had stopped.


I think that the low horsepower helped by keeping the wheels from breaking loose when starting out

Am I the only one that weights down their 2wd truck and keeps driving? Been 
doing it for 25 years with never a problem. I pack the weights right in the 
back to make it squat pretty good, probably over a 1,000 lbs of old harrow 
discs and sometimes suitcase weights. My wife had a '92 Thunderbird and I 
had to put a couple suitcase weights in it but it would still go really 
well, now she had front wheel drive.

And yes I like my antilock rear brakes.
