Hi guys,
I have been lurking here for a few weeks doing a lot of research and just basically reading up on the bumps. I currently don't have one but am actively looking. I had an 84 F-150 that I purchased new. Ever since I traded it in for a new vehicle for the wife I have been kicking myself in the ass. I have had 3 or 4 ford pick-ups since then (current daily driver 2005 F-150). I am ready to purchase my first bump. I want something with a ford 9" rear and really like the lines of the 67 -72 f-100's. I am almost ready to pull the trigger on a 67 swb ranger. It has a 352, standard tranny ( not sure what kind) and ford 9" (not sure what ratio yet) The cab is not in the best of shape . it will need new floors and corners. I'm sure I will be back here soon looking for tips or advice on the resto. This site seems like there is a lot of knowlegable people willing to answer everyones questions. I have been hanging out on the VMF for the past few years since I am just finishing up a 68 mustang. If anyone is looking for tips on a mustang this is the place to go http://www.vintage-mustang.com/.

Re: Hi from Western MA
Hello from Lower NY. Not too many Northeasterners around here. I saw this on Craig's List yesterday. If you are willing to travel a few hours, it looks pretty nice, especially for a Northeastern truck.
