New 68 250 from Georgia

Post by J68Cain »

My names John this site has been a so helpful in the past. My granddad gave me his 1968 ford f250 about five years ago. The truck was worked hard and had many rust issues. He passed away from cancer two years ago , so now I plan on finishing the project in memory of him. The project still has aways to go and I know il need advice so im hoping I have come to the right place.
