new member, I quit stalking

Post by jwalterus »

been working on my toy for a while now, it had been sitting in a parking lot with me eyeballing it for a couple of years without moving, 1982 F-250 Cab and Chassis that was last registered and driven in 1988

was raised in a ford family, my first vehicle (and what I learned to drive on the road in) was a 1982 F-100 2wd with a 3 on the tree, it was the first vehicle my parents had purchased new

over the years, I've gone through more vehicles than I have new pairs of pants :lol: simply because everything DOES have it's price, and people have always offered me that or more

this truck is going to be my money pit and long-term project, I'm turning it into a street legal drag and show truck

I'm 26, married with one kid and another due the end of August, I own my home and am a maintenance man for a rental company, so I am very experienced in plumbing, electrical and all sorts of construction

I have been working on my own vehicles since I was about 8, my dad was enlisted military, so he taught me and when he was gone I was the one who had to fix everything

if I can help anyone out with what I know I will, and even if I can't I'll still try
