Scares the hell out of me right now every time I drive it as the passenger side front corner is invisible. and I've got the horrors about wiping some ones vehicle side.
Slowly getting the hang of sitting on the wrong side though......
Political Correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.
I currently live in a Town called Fernvale in South East QLD Australia. For a living I am in the Airforce as an aircraft mechanic on Caribou's 14 cyclinder radial things.....awesome fun.
As for my Truck well I'm just about to buy my first of hopefully many F trucks....its a 1977 and I have posted some pics up in a gallery....under Catfords 1977 F100.
Hi All!
I thought I would jump on and introduce myself! I am living in Melbourne Victoria, AUSTRALIA!!!!
a couple of months ago bought my first F truck, 1979 SWB XLT 352Cleveland with the Factory four speed (Soon to be C6 auto), it is a great all original truck and is painted in "Sandstone" with a white Canopy and sunraysia rims on it so very Grandad looking, but neat as a pin! and suprising little rust for the year
I will try to get some pictures when I learn how to add them here!
If anyone in Melbourne can suggest where to get servicing and mechanical work and parts from I would be most grateful!

Hey!! I remember those Caribous, had a bunch of them in Vietnam! I was in the forward air controllers, they used to fly in and land like feathers!

the next one from Germany, not new here but never posted. To be honest, the F150 belongs to my wife. I didn't like such trucks until we had one but now I love it! It's a pleasure to travel with it.
We've added a liquid gas installation to the truck (Autogas, LPG) to reduce the costs and it runs very well with as much as 14 Euros per 100 km. That's much less than my '05 Mustang ;-)
