new from PA

Hello everyone. My name is Jesse, I've never posted on forums before but I figured I should sign up in case I ever need advice on something.

I have a 1981 F-150 Custom which I bought about 4 years ago. I never really did much with it besides haul junk, but now I've decided to finally start fixing her up which includes doing plenty of body work, finding a few replacement parts, and figuring out how to fill the hole in the seat.

I look forward to talking with everyone and I will try to contribute whatever I can. I'm not a professional by any means, but I do have some experience with American cars and trucks and with older Mercedes.

Welcome Jesse, time to post away, we love hearing from you!
Looks like your F-150 has about the same amount of rust as the ones around here do but it`s good to hear you plan to fix it up, it`s worth it.
Check out your local Pennsylvania Chapter chapter and hook up with some of the folks there too: Pennsylvania Chapter - Ford Truck Enthusiasts Forums

Hey guys, thanks for the replies. Hopefully sometime in the next couple days I'll get my truck back from my dad and then I can start doing some work to it. The last time I took pictures of it I still had my crappy old camera, but now I'll be sure to take plenty of good pictures with my new digital camera.
