Post ford truck bed trailer for my chevy good idea?

been thinking about getting the rear bed off of a ford torino and cutting and welding it for a trailer for my elcamino, you think i would get some comments or some pissed off ford people? i dont have anything against fords just thought of it like theses little stickers on fords that have a guy pissing on a chevy logo,and a chevy sticker with a guy pissing on a ford logo. those are illegal in south carolina now isnt that nuts!

yes plug off the vacume advance,turn the dis left till it starts to stall,turn it right till it stalls find the median. thats how i time my 350 and friends that have cams do the same but try not to advance youre timing to much depends on engine if its bored or stock,i will even set my timing at 4 drive a mile set it at 6,7,8, until the motor sounds good nad the idle isnt above 1000
