new member with a 68

Post by billycri »

hi guys my name is billy i have a 68 f250 camper special i got from my dad, previous owner before him only used it as camper, has 72,000 miles 360, 4 speed mt, so far i have done the floors and primed it black until i finish the work to the body which wasnt as bad as expected being i live in rhodeisland. the biggist issue i have to contend with so far is going to be the roof around the windshield the roof itself is solid but the windshield lip, and pillar across inside is long gone. looking forward to looking around here and seeing what others have done, usually best place to find good info is on sites like this, pics will be up of my beast when i find the camera...(meaning prying it from the wifes fingers for 5 mins lol) :D
