Hello all.

I'm a new member on FTE.
Hopefully I will be able to get plenty of help and advice here.

I'm the proud new owner of a 1966 F100 with a 390 FE.

The only issue being it broke down on the way home, got delivered on a truck and haven't been able to drive it since!

Have managed to wash it though.

It hasn't been fully diagnosed yet, waiting on parts.
But it started misfiring and lost power.
Seems to be ignition and timing related so I am putting an electronic conversion in and seeing how much that helps!

-edit - I have a thread open in the technical area fir any ideas :-)

All the way across the pond! That's an awesome truck! My dad had a 65 custom cab we did floor pans in when I was a kid. So much fun. Welcome and good luck with the truck.
