Cheese Head here!!!

Post by grebesbakery »

New guy here from Packer land!!!

Just pick up a 1969 F100 360 long bed ranger for $1000. Runs and drives pretty good, does need some tune up work.

I picked it up when I was visiting family in Arkansas, so there is hardly and rust on it. Not sure what direction I'm going to go with is this truck.....but I want it to be a runner and I want it to sound beefy.....not redneck raspy sounding:)

Any tips and tricks would be great!

Thanks guys!!1

:wel: from northern California. Your "new" truck looks like the one I bought in 1973 or 74, but I think mine was a 1970. Yours is the same color that mine was. I loved that truck.
