FNG here intro

hey everyone, I am the proud owner of a 1975 ford f150 camper special that I will be working on with everyones help here and there. I already put on a 750 edelbrock carb and rebuilt the transmission and timed the motor. I will be doing more but the biggies are out of the way. I am interested in a newstalgic type look. big wheels and stock look with reliability and performance in mind . looking forward to chatting

thanks!
things done in the two weeks I have owned it: new gauge panel so I can see them
the carb and air cleaner switched that one in for a regular edelbrock round one, rebuilt the transmission, pulled 2 flowmasters out of the junkyard for 10 bux each, cleaned it up , timed it and replaced a fuel line. other than that original paint and body.
