New Member Introduction

I'm in the early stages of restoring a 1997 F350 XLT 7.3 L standard cab.
The truck now has 83,000 miles. I bought the truck used in 1999 having 21,000 miles on it.
Having been garaged since 2000, used twice monthly over the years, the truck is in excellent condition for its age.
I look forward to sharing my experiences throughout the restoration process.

97 F350 Diesel Restoration

Thank you. Fun project!
So far the project has presented a few challenges, but nothing innovation and perseverance couldn't overcome.
Will post additional pictures soon.
