New to the site from Fort Worth, TX
Hi my name is Jack my user name is jackus. I have 1953 F100. Build pictures are at http://www.jackus.winkflash.com
I am retired and 65 years old. Looking for fellow F100 people to visit with and share stories of our rides.
I bought my 53 in 1984 from a friend while working in the west Texas oilfields. Lived in Hobbs NM at the time. Moved to Fort Worth area in 86. I want to say it's finished, but I don't think it will ever be finished. Always something else to do to it.

May your sails stay full, and your knots not slip. Unless a slip knot.
