Hey folks, new member here. I'm the proud owner of a '68 F-250 Hi-Boy. I most certainly will be asking a lot of questions and researching forums for information on fixing her up the way I want. Some things I'm currently looking to do are convert her to power steering (found a very informative post by Tpdaniels on the subject), currently putting in a fan shroud, possibly conversion from drum to disc brakes, and give her a fresh new coat of paint. These projects will get tackled when I have the money and time and know-how. In the meantime, I want to learn as much as I can about my truck. I was in the Army for 4 1/2 years and got her when I got out. My father had a '68 Ford F-100 with the original blue and white paint job. She was a beauty and it was my inspiration to make the purchase of my own. I look forward to learning from you folks and maybe sharing what I've learned eventually. Cheers!
