Hello everyone, I'm Greg from the sticks in Thawville. Drive an 18 wheeler as occupation.

Got my 04 f350 6.0 in 14'. Only have one .jpg of the truck since it basically just sits in the garage. Put maybe 1k miles on it since purchase. I'd post the pic but it keeps telling me it's the wrong file format.

Hello any and all who care to listen. My name is Dan and I live in Belleville IL. I've owned more cars than I am old and have always been drawn to fords. My current toy and project is a 78 F150 4x4 with a 351m and C6. It is still in early phase of at least getting road worthy and then fully built to my vision.

Side note I'm looking for parts locally to aid in my build if there is a local classified section someone can share with me.

Hi All, Dave from the NW 'burbs of Chicago (Itasca to be exact). I have a 95 F150 XLT 2WD with 5.0/auto. According to the door jam sticker the truck has a limited slip 3.73 diff. I haven't been able to verify that via the tag on the diff though. The truck is originally from Chicago and only has rust bubbles over the rear fender arches (and a little in the tailgate). The cab is rust free & solid (which astounds me). The truck needs some TLC but it should be pretty nice, basic transportation when I'm done.

Hey, I'm in Maple Park (about 15 minutes east of Sycamore/DeKalb). I have 2003 F250 6.0 Crew can, short bed, rwd. I live on 5 acres and have my horses at home! and my truck needs new bed (rust) and should look at doing the bottom of the doors. Cab corners are still solid (for now).

Live in Elgin, same boat as you. 03 F350 sc lb rusted corners rockers, bottom of doors. Just cut out the inside of the bed and welded in a new one. Found a bed that was banged up on the outside so I cut it apart and inserted it into my old box shell.

Nice idea, Mike1! I'm going to start looking around for one! Wheel wells are totally shot, can corners are still ok, but I hate rust!! So annoying! And glad to know another lives so close!

Hey y'all. Recently moved to Round Lake, IL after being in Japan the last three years. Just recently traded for a 2000 7.3 CCSB. The usual rust on the cab corners. Frame on the back half was painted/protected. I plan on doing the same to the front once I get the cab taken care of. Looking forward to some meets/GTG's and wrenching with everyone. Thanks for having me in the group.

Cheers
