Another FNG

Post by Zephyrmec »

Greetings, New guy in Florida. I'm an antique car kind of guy, and currently own/show a 36 Lincoln Zephyr. I've been a Ford guy as long as I can remember, and have owned a Ford truck at all times since '74. I'm very fond of the 68-72 style, of the ones I've owned my 2 favorites have been a 69 F250 6 banger and a 71 F100 with the FE power. Someday I'll build one for my everyday driver, if a flathead prewar 1/2 ton doesn't find it's way to my shop.

Hi and welcome to the site from N.C. You don't a Bumpside to be a member here. The main requirement is an all around nice person (ssshhhhhhhh! I snuck in before that rule was applied LOL). Good to see someone who seems to have a ford background and a love for the trucks.

Welcome from Wisconsin!!!!
Its been quite a while since i've seen a flat 12.
VERY NICE !!!! I used to have some flat 8's, and even had a flat 4 once.

You could really wreak havoc with ch@&&y lemmings and put a 337 flat 8 with a couple of 97's on it in a bumpside :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
That would be really cool!!!
