Hello everyone. Figured I'd better join the forum seems how I rob info from here just about everyday. Currently building a 79 f150 short box that I'll be making a build thread on. My daily driver is a 2007 ford f 150

 

Hello all,
I am Btaylor from Arizona. I drive a 99 Expedition. First Ford I have owned. I like it. Have done some mods to it since buying it last year.

 

Hello kennyjoe here..... have a 1980 f100 ranger shortbed thats been sitting in back yard for last 10 yrs..like to trade...let me know thanks

 

Been lurking for a few months. I purchased a 1989 F-150 XLT Lariat 4x4. I am in the process of building a 351W for the truck now. I have found a lot of answers on this forum and do like the people so decided to ask a few of my own questions.

 

Hello from north of the border (Ontario). After dabbling in cars for the longest time I have acquired a new project, a 1956 Ford F100 shortbox (small back window). The powerplant will be a 292 Y block (vintage 1957). I'm going to need a lot of help on this one.....
nice to meet you all
Bill

 

new to site. Mike Smith I have a 1997 4 x 4 F250 XLT 7.3 Powerstroke Automatic. I am in British Columbia, Canada. I joined after reading many posts that helped to fix issues with my truck, and need info on PSOM issue.

 

Just joined the FTE site. I recently purchased a 2004 F-250 with the 5.4, 4R100 auto trans, extended cab with 8 ft. bed. mleage is 89,000. I've owned a 1993 F-150, 1998 F-150, a 2006 F-250 plus a F-100 Econoline conversion van. Four years ago I took a chance on a 2008 GMC Sierra. I'm back to the Blue Oval - FOR GOOD..

 

Hi--I own a 1986 Ford F-150 that has seen better days but is still up and running! I've got a used engine in it and recently installed a new brake master cylinder and slave cylinders. I'm a Ford and VW man and have worked on both for years. My baby was a 1965 Mustang but I had to sell it a few years ago to pay bills, but maybe one day I'll get another! I also like the Ranger truck and hope to have one of those some day too for the convenience and gas mileage of a run around. I hope to get to know some people!

Hi, thank you for accepting me into the group. I am the owner of a 1986 F150 6 cyl. I am a DIY kind of gal. I have a degree in Automotive Tech but I have been away from it for a looooong time. This truck is a great opportunity to re-learn the craft. Thanks again!

 

Hello FTE Folks!

I joined FTE today because I want to buy a 1951 F8 dump truck, but I need help. The only Ford truck I have owned was a 1984 F150... in 1988. I have restored three 1960's Mustangs, but no trucks.

Here is the truck I am thinking of buying:



It didn't take long to figure out that this is a different ballgame than restoring a Mustang. Much harder to find parts, for one thing. I already know that the master cylinder and/or brake booster needs to be replaced, because it consumes brake fluid. And the guy told me that some of the brake drums have "hairline cracks". I think they should be replaced too. The question is, can I get these parts anywhere? If not, is there another option?

I would also really appreciate the knowledgeable people's opinions on what this F8 might be worth.

Thanks for any help you can give me... I need it!

 

I just joined because I am driving to Virginia this weekend to pick up my "new" 1985 F-150 XLT Lariat (5.0L Auto 4x2). I am excited to see such incredible enthusiasm and collective knowledge about Ford trucks. This is my first Ford truck so I expect to make good use of the forum.

Happy Trails!
