Let me start off with this.

My 1975 Ford F-100 390 FE / 4-Speed with 33's. This is a picture of my truck the day i got it. I loaded up my racing lawn mower and drove it to a race. Also my GF and my dog. A true rednecks heaven lol.

Thanks! Yes i have plans for it. I am just researching now for options. It has a 4-speed and i am looking at a 5-speed swap or bigger tires to help out with hwy driving. It has a hole in the drivers floorboard so that is on the list to fix. I am going to strip the body and repaint it. The drivers exhaust manifold is leaking so i am wanting to put headers on it and new hardware since a few of the bolts are broke off in the head. Longterm is a 12v cummins motor that i have laying around to install in it. Also some autometer gauges and tach install is on the list. This is a factory A/C truck with everything still in tact so i am going to re-charge the R-12 in the truck.

Nice all the way around! What can you tell us about the steering wheel? It doesnt look like it is from the 70's.

Thanks guys the truck was like this when i got it. I assume its a ranger/explorer from the early 90's vehicles. I am currently wanting to replace it with a Grant or a Stock wheel i haven't decided. I am working on setting aside some cash to fix the truck up.
