New from Virginia.

Post by Patrick Antkowiak »

Hello,

I just want to say, what a great site this is. I have been reading thru the forums and noticed how professional and helpful you guys are.

I am in the process of restoring a 1972 Ford Ranger XLT. It originally had a 302 auto, but now it has a bored 390 and C6. I love this style of truck.

In the process of my restoration I have found so much information from this site. My main interest is body work. I worked in some bodyshops while I was in highschool and college. Some how I have ended up in advertising.

I look forward sharing the information I have learned and to get to know some of you guys. :thup:

Thanks for the warm welcome. I will defiantly post some pics. I like to do subtle body modifications and have a photo diary of the process.

Thanks
Patrick
