'72 F100

Post by Spectre_Nick »

Hello Everyone!

I live in Clovis, NM and I just bought a 1972 F100 Custom longbed. I consider it a craigslist success story! It has rust, dents, and an awesome gun rack. My plan is to drive it for now and then start in on a full restoration this summer. I have always been a Ford guy, but this is my first Ford truck. So, I will be on here in "receive mode" until I start my resto....and I have no doubt that is when I will become more active on the forums. I looked at a '68 today and I will be acquiring that one in the near future. I am going zero to 100, F100 that is.

Looking forward to my frist truck,
Nick
