Thumbs up New Guy Intro....from Sask

Hi guys,I'm from Edenwold near Regina.Found this site by accident but I got a couple old Ford pickups and this looks like a good place to hang out.The family has had a few over the years and I have been finding the odd one to bring home.I've been working on a 32 tudor which runs and drives although it's missing paint and interior.I found a 40 pu for my fiancé(that was the excuse for buying it)and for Christmas I found myself a minty 32 pu cab,but what I've allways wanted was a 56.I managed to find a couple big trucks to start with.I want to build a welding truck I can use when I am working around home.I figure if I start on this I will eventually find myself a pickup.
A lot of good info and such here,hope I can contribute.
Thanks Dave
P.S.Does anyone build a 460 powered snowblower I can borrow?

Thanks guys...
Blew mine up last week,Had to build some parts for it.When I had it upside down,I found a 1976 date stamped.No wonder no one has parts! LOL
But it should be good for another 30+ yrs or so now.....

Napa may have your parts.
I have been using my Bobcat, the 8 ft snow banks around here now are almost as hard as concrete from all that wind we had last week.
What is your red truck, a 71?
