New Kid from Oregon!

Post by Seapony »

Hey guys, names Sam, I'm 18 and from southern Oregon. My dad gave me his 79 F150 460 2WD Lariat as a present last Christmas(after he saw how much j wanted a truck, I was looking at bull noses on craigslist like crazy), its sat for the last 10 years and I'm getting it up and running again and doing a rolling restored. My grandpa bought it in '86 and my dad got it from him in '90.

I got the ford truck bug after that and bought a 72 Camper Special from one of my dads friends (who was gonna scrap it) for $250. Paying it off this week hopefully, then getting it to where I can drive it to school.

I'll post some pics after work when I can get to my computer!
