Thumbs up New member intro

Hey all,


I just recently purchased an 86 F150 Styleside, 302 EFI, auto trans with 82000 miles. It is in good condition considering it has lived its life in the northeast. Anyhow, nice to see a spot to get some useful information. Look forward to future communication.

Welcome To FTE !!

You have found the best source with very knowledgeable members who actually respond quickly with a wealth of research, information, tips & tricks. FTE is by far, the best forum when it comes to F Series trucks. We may not always agree but, that's what makes this forum great.

Quick tip:

Take a few moments to create a signature with your truck's specs as it will help in the future.

BTW welcome to FTE, jaydav.

Along Chevy's suggestion, I just want to say that I don't display any signatures at all and so it's real helpful to include all of the pertinent information in the body of your posts/questions, OK? Just trying to help.

That's because Chris is a CIA operative working undercover on a top secret global operation on the illegal exportation of Bullnosed trucks to Swiss operated accounts trafficking 80-86 Ford trucks to 3rd world nations for their collectible desirability.... Oh wait.....that was secret....

I prefer "WAC" if you must abbreviate my treasured user name....it was either WhatsAChevy? or "HenrysSpawn",lol. Bowties went out of style in the late 40's.

This is because I forget your real name (and maybe I don't see it in your sig? old age?).
