New in LA

Hi All!

So glad to have found this site!
Helped me get back up and running only yesterday...
My very first vehicle was a Rangoon Red '64 Ford Falcon Futura, 2 door, hardtop, with a little straight 6 (170), which I loved and fixed and drove from LA to NY and back 4 times and from LA to Seattle and back 3 times...she had well over 500,000 on the odometer before that went out...
My 2nd was a primer grey '60 Ranchero that was a little sparse on the interior...basically 2 seats, a steering wheel and the shifter. The floor was a patchwork of welded and riveted license plates to what remained of the original floorboards...
And what I'm driving now is my big brother's old truck, a blue '94 F-150, with a camper shell on the back. I just this week clicked past 250,000...
Keeping my fingers crossed, but feeling a whole lot better knowing I've got you all and your collective experience and wisdom to back me up!
Keep it rollin' !


- ike
