New 76 F100 Down Under

Hi All, New member from Adelaide Australia 1976 F100 SWB 351 Cleveland with 4 Speed Manual. Been in the same family last 20 years body is in excellent condition motor is coming out as its down on compression and looks like rear main seal is gone. Thinking of doing a warm 351 with a C6 conversion but will wait and see. Truck is an Australian Delivered F factory RHD.

I stayed there for a year as a boy and then my father moved us up to Rockhampton. Great truck. Keep us posted on your progress.

Looks good. There's a few Aussies lurking here, it's worth mentioning that there's also an F-Series and Bronco forum on the Australian Ford Forums. Good luck with it! A rot free body is a big win, I've been cutting out rust and previous owners bogged repairs on my f250 the past couple of weeks, so I envy you!
