Can't wait to get started
Just bought a 72 f-100 and I am already starting to dive in. Haven't worked on an old vehicle for about 15 years and am looking forward to having fun fixing it up with my girls. I will have tons of questions and look forward to meeting you all. Live in southern Virginia.

Re: Can't wait to get started
Just to let you know, the 2 girls helping me are my 7 and 9 year old daughters. I also have a daughter at Wyotech for auto body repair who will be helping me do a total resto when she graduates. Gotta love family projects, especially since it is 3 daughters into cars. Get them while their still young
