finally signed up
hey everyone. ive been watchin the site for a month or two now, had a little trouble signing up (thanks keith) all better now...
i am 20 years old, and have a lot of time on my hands for now. i am a licensed water well driller, and i was injured at work, so ive been sitting at home for two months and still have some time to go before i can go back.. pretty good story , ill have to tell it sometime
anyway a few quick things about the ride..
i have a 1970 short wide 2wd. its coming together pretty well. ive dreamt of this truck since i was 12...
has a few mods.. bucket seats (leather, powered and heated).. converted to a/t.. lowered (dont do it like i did, dream beams are on the agenda).. did the wiper delay.. 3:00 gears awesome on the highway.. power brakes.. o and a 514 ford racing motor ,supposed to be good for 650-700hp, just did that this spring! pretty fun for a daily driver.
anyway, ill stop boring you guys... thanks for letting me join, looking forward to helpin where i can and soakin up all the knowledge i can handle, Jeff

You don't have to sign out... when you close the window it signs you out and then if you selected the "automaticaly sign me in" check box, when you come back it signs you in automatically.
Hope you get your computer fixed soon so we can see some pics of your truck.
