I'm a noobie here and just wanted to introduce myself here. I live in Suwanee, GA but work up at American Radio in Cumming, GA. I just sold my deer wrecked 4Runner this week and needed another daily driver/project car. Something that I could work on and drive at the same time. So, it was natural to use some of the money that I got from the sale of the 4Runner and put that towards a good daily that is practical, easy to use, and easily attainable for a good price. Of course, I had to find something a little more unique, rare, and unexpected. The result, a 1967 Ford F100 Ranger.

There will be more pictures posted as I build the truck. Going for a more resto-mod type build on the truck. Something more practical, kinda showy, but mostly reliable. I will be using the truck as a daily and a tow vehicle for my show car and bass boat

A little background on me. I'm a 25 year old born and raised in Atlanta, GA. Been building cars since I was 7. Helped a neighbor wrench on his Porsche 911 turbo and I've been doing motor work, fabrication, maintenance, detailing, audio, video, etc... ever since.

My customized Lexus GS300 show vehicle.

This is the truck that I picked up in Ellijay, GA













The plans as of now are to build something like this but keep the oem colors



Any suggestions, comments, or concerns just post it up. I am very new to the domestic game. Definitely want to do things right the first time. Heard this was the place to find out how to do that so here I am.

 

Welcome to FTE. I'm in Acworth. Nice truck, how much $$$? (if you don't mind me asking)

 

Thanks!! I sold my 4Runner for $1,750 and got this truck for much less

 

I know someone in Dallas that has a '72 for sale, $500 I think. Not sure if it runs or not, as I have not seen it.

 

if anyone knows of someone selling i am looking for new seat covers for the truck

 

Thanks to my good buddy Jordan here's a Photoshop of the car just an idea of what direction we are thinking of taking the truck. Let me know what you guys think!!!

 

First of all Welcome to FTE and the Georgia Chapter. I really like that truck. I love the body style and the 67 is the most unique year from it. Good work on the Lexus as well. If you are into the whole slammed truck look then I say go for it.

 

Thanks! We'll see how it goes

 

Nice looking truck , Believe I've seen your truck around the Suwanee area .

 

great truck love the blue on it. I am always out looking for good cheap trucks bought a few and they run forever. I was looking at one in the area for 600 but was sold right before igot there. I am just over the river in Cumming

 

I know , I've had 2 that's sold before I got there. If your still looking
I use Searchtempest.com I like it better than the old Craigslist..
Just wished it included GON Marketplace..

 

There was a 73 F100 LWB listed on CL in Cave Springs for $500. IT said the 390 was frozen up but he was tired of sinking money in it $500 obo.

 

As far as lowering the front of the 67, you can bolt in a Crown Vic rack and pinion suspension from an 03-present Crown Vic or Mercury Marauder. It give about 5 '' of drop.

 

thanks for the kind words everyone. i'll keep that in mind about the crown vic front

 

I drive by your workplace daily... heck, I've even bought a few things there!
