New kid on the (small) block.

Post by jbrown414 »

Hello from TX. My name is Jeremy and I am 25. I have a 67 f100 2WD SWB truck. It still runs and I do what I can to keep it that way. It has an I6 300 (not sure if it classifies as a small block) with 3 on the tree, manual steering and drum brakes. I inherited this truck from my grandfather in 99. He was the original owner and used it as a farm truck. Interesting thing about this truck is that at some point the gas tank was removed from the cab and put under the bed. I will put pics up as soon as I can. I have many questions and will post them to the appropriate forums. Any questions you have for me, feel free to ask. Thank you all in advance and I am excited to be here.

Jeremy

Welcome Jeremy. You've come to the right place. Post some pics when you can. Several of us have "inherited" our trucks. That makes them even more special.
