I'm a new member to the forum, but a long time Ford truck owner. I still own my first truck, "67 F250, a well used farm truck. My next was a '77 F150 that I bought new,$4300, after that was a '95 F150, my first 4x4, and then an"03 F150, another 4x4, which I'm still driving today. I was going to rebuild the '67 F250 but after giving it a good look over I decided that it was too beat up and rusted. My latest purchase was a '67 F100 from Alabama. It has a solid body and frame, a good starting point. the 352 out of the F250 has been rebuilt and along with the trans. are going in the F100, replacing the 240 six and three on the tree, with a Holly EFI system replacing the carb. and distributor. A lowering kit for the front end has been ordered. Conversion kits for the steering and brakes are on there way as well. To fix all the electrical problems, a rewiring kit will be going in. So, with all that, it looks like I'll have a winter project to keep me out of the house! I"ll try to take some pictures and post them as I go along. Daiges
