hello I'm a new user and was wondering if you guys could help me.
I am going to be restoring my great grandpas '65 F100 Flareside Custom Cab (a stepside is a Chevrolet
), but...
Some of the things I've looked up aren't matching up with what they should be and what I've been told.
Like what for instance?
It has 240 straight 6, three on the tree, 2WD
The Warranty Plate info is as follows:
F10JE660325 // WB: 115 / COLOR: A / MODEL: F100 / BODY: E81 / TRANS: A / AXLE: 09 / MAX GVW LBS: 05000 / CERT NET HP: Omitted / RPM: Omitted / DSO: 22
