Howdy! New member here.
I purchased a 72 F100 SWB almost 17 years ago and it's been sitting in a field at a friends house since I purchased it. The truck is solid and should be a blast to drive. It is a project that my son and I have been anxiously waiting to build for many years.
We recently moved to a new home that has a 30' X 30' shop, so we now have the room to do the build and not tick momma off because we left all of the parts strewn around the garage.
The plan is to build a moderate street truck that we can take to local shows and cruises.

Hello Everyone!
Hello my name is Bucky I've had my 02 Explorer EB 4.6l 2V SOHC for about 3yrs. I've done a few basic minor upgrades such as Magnaflow exaust, K&N intake, Trick Flow throttle body, and Accel Super Coils. It's my 1st Ford and overall she's been pretty good to me. That's not to say I have haven't had a few issues along the way. That's where sites like this one have proven themselves to be an essential, invaluable resource to people like me who have the courage to DIY, but want to do so armed with as much knowledge and information as possible. Whenever I plan on doing any work on my EB, before I even pop the hood I come here 1st. On behalf of myself an DC I'm sure many other DIYers THANK YOU. I only hope that now that I'm becoming more familiar with the 4.6 I can pay it forward and contribute to the wealth of information on this site and maybe be able to help someone else as I have been helped so many times.
