New, OLD, New guy

Hey there. New to the site. Old, well at least on the cusp, and hopefully a New Old Ford owner.

I'm a Ford owner, been driving my new design '11 Explorer since late '10 and love it still. I'm closing in on 60 and seeking to satisfy the itch I have for learning mechanical skills other than fluid changes, brakes etc and other operations of similar skills. Two days ago I walked out of a Lowe's and fell in love with a '65 F100 parked the Contractor drive that happened to have a For(d) Sale sign on it. Who know's maybe I'll be the next owner so I thought I better get my a** over here to get some research done.

Looking forward to future exchanges, thanks,

Stuart
