New guy from Calvert

Hey guys, my name is David. I'm fairly new to the forms and haven't posted anything. I've been reading a lot about older f150's. I have a 1976 f150 with either a 360 or 390, the previous owner didn't know and it says nothing about the engine anywhere. I'm not entirely sure what trim level i have, and that's caused me a lot of confusion. it's jade green and says custom on the dash but has a hood emblem? Anywho, I live in a little podunk town named Calvert. I'm not entirely sure if anyone knows where that is, so I'll just say Bryan/College Station. I hope to get in touch with everyone =]

Welcome David!

Nice truck. I once had a '74 F100 pickup, but that was like 100 years ago, so I don't remember anything about them at all.

Thanks Snugg! I'm only 17 so I won't be much use for a vendor, but I WILL be 18 this coming august, so I'll be able to participate in live events! I'd be more than happy to buy one of the chapter shirts, if you'd be able to link me the page to order one, I'd be grateful.

thanks david! congrats on finally being able to turn 18. lol. we've all been there once. lol.

what would happen, i think, would be getting the final count on everyone who wants a shirt, and waiting on payment to come in before i go pay and pick up the bulk order. then i'll probably hand them out at a get-together or something. i haven't crossed tat bridge yet. lol.

Lol. Yeah, me too. I'm still paying on stuff, even though my truck is paid for. There's always something to spend money on. Lol.
