hi, got a 1979 f100 last weekend in a trade for a cheap camry i got from my brother in law. was going to trade plus cash but kid said he would trade even if i wanted. needless to say, "plus cash" was dropped from vocab and i drove it home.
its a 300 inline auto 2wd with 66k miles. think i am third owner, baby blue with no body rust, newer paint job but flaking and scratches that have rusted a little. newer seats swapped out, i think newer ford rims also, no tailgate and blacked out lense all around.
plan to drive it for a while and fix it up a little when i get the chance but mostly drive it daily.
first up is new tail lense, hood spring and wiper ****. then clean up grill and repaint it, then maybe amateur paint repair on scratches and flakes. and whenever i find a non FUBAR tailgate, paint and bolt it on.
no pics yet but plan to post tomorrow with few newb questions also
thanks
Definitely post pictures. It seems like we have the same truck - mine is a baby blue '79 F100 with a 300 automatic, 2WD as well. Mine is a longbed. Looking forward to pictures, and welcome to FTE!

Mine was originally baby blue but got painted dark blue by a PO. Don't think I've ever actually seen one that color before. Anyway, sweet truck and a good deal.
