I was on here many years ago as QC. I have a 1969 F-100 Ranger with a 302. I had most of the mechanical work done on it and then life happened--grand kids, job changes--and I parked the truck in the barn. It sat there for almost 15 years covered in dust. A few months ago I decided to get back to work on it. I got it started, not as hard as I thought it would be, and surprisingly it runs really good.
Most of what is left to do is body work which I am not a fan of. I hope to get it painted this summer. I just retired so I have more time to work on it.

Re: re-introduce myself
Nice to see you back Mark!
Amazed at how "resilient" our old Bumps can be.
