Hi all. New member from Canada

Post by Blue_Streak »

Hi everybody;

I've been lurking for a long time and now its time to join.

I'm from Toronto, Ontario and I own a '67 F100. It was the very first vehicle I bought and I have owned it for 34 years. It last saw the road in 1999 and has been sitting outside under the lean-to and on cement ever since. Now it's time for its' complete frame off restoration. I started that back in January and I am excited as hell to get her back to A1 condition. She'll be a Restomod. New drivetrain but the integrity of the body and interior will remain true to 1967.

I have to admit that I already have stolen a fair bit of information from this site and now it's time to contribute. Give back what I learn, trade or buy or sell some parts that might help others , and let others in on the restoration process should they choose to follow. As I said I am extremely excited to get this underway and I hope others might get excited as well. I have seen the projects others have done and that got me going to do mine.

One thing I gotta say is that from what I know of this site from being a lurker, :fr:

Thanks and hope to meet a few friends along the way.

Nice!!

All the way from the left coast. Are the trucks out there still in good condition or is it just as tough to try to find a good one as it is here in Ontario?
