New Guy From Phoenix

Post by Scottys70 »

Hey guys! I wanted to drop in and say hi. I recently bought this '70 F100. The air cleaner on the engine has a 390 sticker, the guy I bought it from told me it's a 390, but the VIN sez it's a 360. I'll have to do some research to really see what I have. I do know that this truck is a joy to drive! Very healthy with a 4spd. PS but no PB. It needs a little love but will be a nice project. The main area in need of attention is the interior. The body in the pics looks wavy but that's just the paint. The body is very straight for being 44 years old. Anyways, i've been browsing this forum for a couple weeks and really appreciate all the info. Very cool site :)

Hey guys! Thanks for the welcome. I gotta say, this is one of the coolest and most informative forums I think i've been on. Information here is endless and i've learned so much about my new truck in the past few weeks. I've never even heard of Dream Beams until a week ago when I started trying to imagine my truck a few inches lower. Haha! Anyhoo, awesome site, and I really appreciate the wealth of info here :)
