Talking Finally Got My Stepside!

Greetings from Oakland!

I'm a huge guy, and have always loved stepside pickups. Yesterday my dream of owning one finally came true.

My new toy:

1982 F150 XLS, 351w, 4wd, 4 speed w/ granny first, 10k miles on rebuilt engine/tranny
























It needs a couple little things: The steering wheel has a lot of slop in it, it idles like **** when it's cold, and it runs a little hot while sitting in traffic. Aside from that, its awesome! Can't wait to take it camping.

I'm sure I'll have lots of noob questions about how to repair and/or replace things as I go along, so I hope everyone can help me out!
