Hello from the Sunshine State.

Post by Mack »

Hey everybody, Ive been reading here for a few weeks. Guess its about time I creat an account. Im in west central Fla, 40 miles north of Tampa. I built and Ole F150 about 20 years ago, and parked it about 10 years back. Its first decade was dedicated to playing in the mud. Now Ive been working on turning it back into a pavement princess for towing a trailer to haul my Jeep. The truck is a 77 SWB 4X4, but everyone thinks its a 79 because I switched out the nose. Anyway, my 68 390 is getting tired so Im working on new power, which leads me to this forum a few times a day.
