New Owner

I just purchased my 1966 Econoline Pickup. Being a Chevy guy I will have a LOT of questions knowing nothing but the basics of a Ford. That said I liked this truck so much I could not refuse the chance to buy it. I'm a 66 year old retiree single Dad and car nut in North Carolina. Glad to be here amongst you.

Drove some of them back in the '60s while in the Navy.
Load up on Dramamine if you're prone to motion sickness, as sitting over the front wheels induces nausea over rough roads.
