hi just joining yalls chapter and wanted to intoduce my self. first off i just want to say im sorry but i am a horrible speller. i have 2 1959 f100, one with a 292 Y block that i use as my dayly driver and one with a 223 thats been sitting in my garage for about 3 years now that i havent been able to do any thing with yet. one truck i want to do completely original and the other i want to play around with a little. i live in north texas fixing to move out by denton area for a new job. also am intrested in finding some kind of car club in my area that people meet up and go driving or what ever so if any one knows of one in that area let me know.

 

hey, f100. Thanks for the introduction. Sounds like some nice rides and fun projects. My daughter will be going to college in denton next month. I dont know too much about the area except it will be getting money from me now. Welcome to the Texas Chapter

 

My extended family is from those parts. My uncle would always go to the Sonic Drive-in and would come home with trophies etc. It's been a long while but there are one or two junk yards right on the SB side of 35 between Denton and Sanger. I would always look for stuff for my '65 Chevy...back when I didn't know any better.

 

Well at least you learned

 

Welcome F100 to wonderful DFW area. I live in Arlington,Tx and travel to Denton to see family ever so often. A few 4X4 owners in this area, mainly Bronco and BroncoIIs and Jeepers, go to the Bridgeport off road park(west of Denton about 30 minutes drive). Maybe this isn't your cup of tea(4-wheelin) but your welcome to go with us next time. There's also a few car clubs in this area, look in local newspapers and fliers left in store windows for dates/times/etc when they meet.. If ya need any used parts there's plenty of junkyards around. I get my parts from yards on Mansfield Highway south-east of FtWorth on 287. Great group of ppl here in this chapter, always willing to help a fellow Ford driver. Keep in touch and stay cool.
