1974 Ford Courier

Hi Folks,

I am new to the forum! Just purchased a 1974 Ford Courier, and have a couple of questions. Haven't picked it up yet, but already wondering-

First, are there any common problems associated with the early Courier?

Second, what is the recommended wheel and tire size, and where can I buy a new set of aftermarket wheels and tires to fit this truck?

Thanks!-AJ

Rust is the biggest issue. All of them I dealt with we're 2.3 Lima motors they are pretty much bullet proof.

It's for his memory that I will never get rid of our truck. But if you could see it.you would wonder why I'm keeping it. I will say one thing. Have fun when it comes to bleeding out breaks.lol.
