Hello, I've been on this website many times but now I finally decided to join it. I just recently got a 69 f100 with the 360 that runs and drives great. She'll be a fun little project for me. I'm sure i'll have lots of questions to ask everyone.
Thanks!
Thanks!

This is how she sits as of right now. 360, auto trans. Interior is in great condition. Looking to lower it, any ideas on how to?

Thanks for the pic!
Lowering? Sure. Go to the Tech Thread Compilation sticky and scroll down to the last update for hyperlinks.
Basically.....
Easiest: DJM lowering beams and: DJM spring hangers & shackles; Or a rear hanger flip with a couple of leaves removed; Or, Airbagit axle flip or Fatman Fabrications axle flip. C-notch advised.
Medium "Difficulty": Front - CV subframe swap for the front. Rear - One of the methods stated above for the rear or an MN12 (Cougar/T-bird) IRS subframe swap.
Very Involved: Mustang II-style IFS for the front (Heidt's, Fatman Fab, etc.) and a three-link, four-link, or ladder bar rear suspension conversion.
Mix n match at your discretion.

Welcome to the FTE
Looks well white wall tires, geez that's like right out of the 60s style.
Then came the 70's with big white lettering on the side walls.
It seems the last 15-20 yrs it's been black walls or white lettering.
But hey it still looks kind of cool classy with those yesteryear white walls.
Truck looks like a pretty good starter project have fun with it.
I still like driving my even after 34+ yrs.
