The FNG

Post by old_mare »

Hello all,

Just found this site and am intrigued. I am 21 years old and live in Missoula, MT. I just recently aquired my 1969 F-250 from my father. It had been sitting in the backyard for 5 years without so much as the door being opened. All I had to do was change the oil, bleed the brakes and put a battery in it and she runs like a dream. Since then I have put new front brakes (calipers, rotors, the whole bit.) new tires, and re-wired the tail lights. I am looking forward to completely restoring "The Old Mare" to her full potential. Future plans include a frame up restoration, engine overhaul, exhaust system, and a flatbed. I'm sure I will have many questions and look forward to asking them.

Thanks,
JT

JT,

Sounds like a great deal! Glad to hear that "old mare" started right up. Quite a testament to these babes.

Welcome to the forums and the site...you should find all your questions answered here. Pull up a chair and set awhile.
