Hi all,

Thanks for letting me join the S.Cal Chapter. I picked up my '66 F250 less than a year ago in semi-working condition and have been learning a lot since then!

This is my first truck project so I am trying to do everything myself (with the help of my dad). I am nearly done with a power brake/front disc/power steering upgrade. I am just waiting for the double-sheave pulley to arrive and then I get to test her out. Can't wait!

I'm running a 352 with 4 on the floor (3 plus granny). Here's a pic of Bessie; she only looks really good in the rain!

Hey, Roni. Thanks for coming in and introducing yourself to everyone.

We've got a chapter BBQ next weekend, and the F100 Western Nationals on June 25th. Hopefully you'll be able to bring your '66 out so we can get an up close look at it.

Hiya Steve! I don't think I will be able to make the bbq. Chances are that I will be able to make it to the Nationals; I'll see you there!
