Newbie Here...

Hi All,
New member here. Our family inherited a 1993 F150 Lightning a year ago and we've been bit by the "lightning bug" ever since. She's an old beaut' with over 250k miles and still running strong-ish (stock). Looking for help, advice, opinions on what can be done to bring her back to be even better than her glory days. We want to breathe life back into her and honor grandpa Bob and show grandma.

Welcome to FTE. The folks that hang out at the "Older, Classic and Antique Trucks" section and the "Performance, Engine and Troubleshooting" section will be glad to help you put some spark back in your lightning. You can find both by clicking on the "Forums" banner at the top left of your screen.

While you're there, slide on down to the "Regional Chapters" section and join the Maryland State Chapter. That's a great bunch of people with a lot of knowledge.
