Newby from So Cal
So my pops bought this beauty back in 72 and 36 years later finally agrees to give it to me. Well after long hours in the garage and a trip to the paint shop here is what I got. I will post more pic's later.
Great to be here and from the looks of things on this forum you guys love your Fords!

Socal,
You are a man after my own heart, I love a plain jane truck. Chrome and glitz just distracts from the solid basic design. If I were painting my bump I would remove all the chrome I could. Anyway, welcome aboard.
