Greetings! I finally signed up and I'm glad I did.

Been lurking here for over a year now and have gotten a lot of help just by searching various topics related to my '86, carburated, 460, E350.

Y'all are great.

Looking forward to getting off the sidelines and participating.

 

Welcome aboard BrnFree!

Just a wild guess here but I'm thinking that's an '86ish model Born Free Class C in your avatar?

Nice RV.

 

Thank you Powerstroke72, correct on all counts.

Amazing guess-work, how did you know? LOL!

 

I don't have one at this time but am a huge RV fan. Seeing your username combined with the avatar pic, it was a no brainer.

Those are really nice RVs and on a fantastic chassis, if I do say so.

In another life, I spent about ten years in volunteer rescue squad work and in our fleet, we had several Ford E-350 Type II van ambulances. With the exception of one of them, they were all 460s and were fantastic workhorses. I miss those days.

I'm not sure how much you've browsed the site so far but here is the forum index link which will give you the list of all forums here on FTE:Ford Truck Enthusiasts Forums - Ford truck and SUV owners and enthusiasts Community And Information Source.

And here are a couple more that may be of interest to you as well:

1968 - Present Full Size Van forum:1968 - Present Full Size Vans - Ford Truck Enthusiasts Forums

Big Block V8 - 385 Series Engines:Big Block V8 - 385 Series (6.1/370, 7.0/429, 7.5/460) - Ford Truck Enthusiasts Forums

The van forum is a great resource and you can get pretty much any question answered there when it comes to the cutaway, chassis, interior, etc. Sometimes you can also get engine issues resolved there as well, however, I threw in the link for the 460 forum also.

One last link for you is the Oregon State Chapter of FTE:Oregon Chapter - Ford Truck Enthusiasts Forums. Drop in there when you get a chance, join the Chapter, and post a quick intro. Lots of great folks in there and it's a good place to network with other Ford folks.

Thanks for joining and enjoy the site. And, if you have any issues with site navigation or questions, feel free to ask any of the members or site staff and we'll be glad to point you in the right direction.
