Been Lurking. Finally Joined from Piedmont, AL

Post by volitone »

I thought it was time to finally go ahead and register. This site is absolutely cool. I've been up all hours of the night on fordification for weeks reading, looking, and dreaming up plans for my recently acquired 68 f-100 swb. It's got a fe360/c6. It's in pretty good shape, but still has plenty of "personality"...So far using the site I've learned that I need some money....lot's of money.

:wel: from Georgia! Good looking truck. Yep, wheelbarrows full of dough :lol: Not necessarily though. If you're patient and diligent you can find some excellent deals out there. I've spent 3 years accumulating parts for my build but only spent about $2000 so far. :D

Welcome from Washington State. I think that most of us probably started as lurkers. You'll find that many of us check the new posts almost every day, and you won't find a better source of people who know these trucks this well. Have fun!
