G'day!

Thought I'd introduce myself as is polite!



Bought the old girl in a state of disrepair and I've made it my mission to return her to her former glory (As well as modify). She's a 1980 F100 4x4 Custom XLT with a 351 Cleveland coupled to a NP435 4 Speed and a NP205 transfer case. She's pretty much stock standard with Ford 9" rear Diff and a Dana 44 ( I'm fairly sure) front differential.



Never been much of a car sort've a fella, but I've always had a soft spot for 60's and 70's F trucks. They're a reasonably uncommon sight in my neck of the woods and I am looking forward to gleaning as much wisdom as possible from the blokes State side!

Thanks for your time, Walrus.
