F-250 from Holland !

Post by Kikmeister »

Hey everybody !

My name's Martin and I recently bought a 1970 F-250 Camper Special. The truck was imported from California and slowly but surely I'm getting her ready for the road. It had passed all tests for the legal license plates and during winter, I'm looking at some basic things as underbody rust and interior restoration. The window rubbers/seals are all shot, so during driving, we can't speak to each other :wink: due to the noise.

I'm not in a hurry and I'm reading this forum with great enthusiasm, as you guys seem to come along the exact same problems as me LOL.

Thanks, regards,
Martin

Hi Hot-rod,

Nope, it was imported already, I only did the licensing process for Holland. Was a fun track with few obstacles and now I'm awaiting the official paperwork to go and drive it.

Still thinking of a name for the car by the way.....

Vielen dank,
Martin
