My name is John aka HouFordMan and I'm glad to be here. I have been a Ford lover all my adult life but this is the first time I am restoring a Ford Truck. "Christine " is a lovely 72 Highboy in fair shape. I want to bring here back to her stock glory days as best I can but I'm not looking to turn her into a show truck. I bought her to haul things and enjoy her, not to sit in a garage and look at. Being that this is my first time restoring I will be leaning heavily on my new friends on this site. I bought Christine only three weeks ago but I already am running around like a mad man looking for parts.
I hope one day to have enough knowledge to help someone who is starting out.
I'm glad to be here.
Best Regards,
Hello from Houston, Texas
