My name is Steve, I live in Pueblo West, CO and enjoy fishing and camping with my nine year old son Ryan. Driving home from work each day, I kept passing an old Ford truck for sale and decided one day to stop and take a look, the truck was pretty beat up (pictures coming) but there was something special about both the interior and exterior styling that really caught my eye. The "Camper Special" emblem also peaked my interest, so I did some internet research and came across this site. Make a long story short I bought the truck, a 1967 F-250 Camper Special for 350 bucks and my plan is to make this a father and son project.
Since that time, I have learned everything I possibly could about the truck and have acquired various factory and restoration manuals which have only charged me up more to get this project going. With the winter months coming up, I can't think of a better way of spending some quality time with my son stripping this old truck down for a frame up restoration.
Next is to somehow convince the wife what a great christmas present a new compressor would be, LOL.
Well anyway, that's my story and I hope everyone has had a great thanksgiving.
from Florida!
