Hello!

Hello and thank you for adding me to the chapter. I'm from Minden, NE. If you don't know where that's at, it's 15 minutes south of Kearney. I just bought my new-to-me 1970 F-100 sport custom about two months ago. I have lots of different ideas for this truck but so far I've just been trying to make it into a better driver. Any tips, tricks, advice, etc is more than welcome. And I'm more than happy to answer any questions. Thanks!







1970 F-100. Sport custom. 302/C4. 59k original miles

Nick, welcome! Man, what a nice, clean truck!! Hey, the NAPA there is managed by one of our own, a guy named George. He has a white 69 F-100, so if you see it there, stop and chat with him. He's also has a beautiful 56 F-100 also!

I'm knee deep in the resto mod of my 67. If you get the time, the link to the build thread is in my signature!

I'll have to keep an eye out for George and his truck. It'd be nice to see first hand what other guys are doing with theirs. And I'll definitely check out your 67.

George is a good guy. I need to get back out to Kearney and see him sometime, that’s where he lives. He manages the Napa there also.

Nice ride, Nick. A lot of guys are doing the front disc brake conversion for better stopping ability.

Thank you! I can get my hands on a crown Vic for next to nothing so I'm exploring my options as far as a power train swap if not a front end swap at the very least.

Yeah, that crown Vic swap is pretty popular, and not that bad of a project, with everyone that's already done it, lots of info out there about it!
