New girl with a '67 F250 Camper Special
Looking forward to getting to know my new, '67 in Lunar Green with some help from the folks here.
So far everything is stock except for non-split rims, the radio has been removed and someone done the conversion to electronic ignition. Minimal rust and she drives well. Need to start with a power steering conversion for in town use so any pointers there will be helpful. Will also post this to the suspension forum.
Cheers,
HC

HC,
from choo-choo town, I've always like the lunar green trucks-they don't show dirt as easily as some colors.
Here's the "how to add" PS tutorial:

Nothing cooler that a lady in truck, especially an F250. My daughter started driving in my 72 F250 and even drove it to school in her cheer leader uniform for about three months. It must have been something to see her get out of that truck in that uniform. She is just now 18 years old and in Costa Rica studying Spanish right after high school graduation. We sent her a text awhile back telling her that we had sold our 2003 van and our 98 Ranger, she was okay with us getting rid of them, but she said she would be upset if we sold "Bruce", which is the name her and her friends gave my truck. Anyway, welcome aboard and you will be asked to post pictures of your truck, so I might as well get that formality out of the way - we love pictures of pickup trucks! Now that isn't a hint, and it's not a command or requirement, it is just an expectation.
