Does anyone have anymore info. on this?
Wow, nothing like being up to the minute... wasn't 1966 the first year that seatbelts were standard equipment? So what is the deal? Safety equipment has to be covered forever?

Good evening Nevada, we arrived this afternoon. Only hit road construction once. Miracles do happen.

Donna,
I'm planning on stopping by, I would love to see your truck. Just need to clear it with the others. I'll call one way or the other so you will know.
Suppose to be nice weather. It was nice today. The whole trip up was nice.
We have a lot of work around the place to get done. So we will be busy.
Craig

I think safety recalls do. I know as a former contractor we were labial forever if any issue was pushed.

Found it!...Hope I can post this w/o getting in trouble because it's a link?!

But how do you know if it applies to your specific vehicle? Or is it for all that were produced w/in those years?

I would think all of that stuff could be determined by the Ford dealer running your vin#...including if the recall was ever performed on your specific vehicle.

BTW...no problem with posting the link.

Hey thanks, that's great idea! I didn't think of that. I'll have to call my local Ford dealership & see if they can check that out for me. I wonder if their still informed on all the older Ford recalls & if they'd have it documented still if my truck was repaired?!

What a nice day! And the next few are supposed to be even better! I think tomorrow we'll take a picnic dinner and check out the water level in the lake.

That sounds like fun Donna, I wish I was closer! I have yet to meet more than one FTE'er at a time, but I'm always hopeful. We have talked about but never had a GTG. Maybe this is the year!
