Hi ya'll from Va.

Post by R.Smith »

I just picked up a '68 F100 360 w/ 3 on the tree. I had a '71 F250 but it finally rusted in half.

I recently spent 3 days in the steering column of my '91 F150 XLT Lariet cussing a piece of broken pot metal in the ignition linkage when I finally popped and decided to get another real truck without all that junk cobbled on.

I also have a '35 chevy but, I hope you guys won't hold that against me. :doh:

I haven't brought it home yet but, here's the picture from craigs list.

She's in pretty good shape for her age. There's some rust but not nearly as bad as some I've seen. I'll post more pics once I get here in the yard.

Don't worry about the Chebbie, being a '35 its old enough to respect 'cause its still around.

We are picture hounds here.
Post us some pics when you get her home.

BTW: Welcome from Wisconsin. Where almost everything rusts in half. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
