Been lurking for awhile and recently joined and had a few questions answered already. I'm a retired Air Force colonel now living back home in Ft. Worth TX and rebuilding a 1995 F150 302 4WD. Truck has been in the family since new but sat for 16 years out in the elements in West Texas until I rescued her about a year ago. It's been a labor of love and I'm learning a lot. Owned many Fords over the years (and exactly 1 Dodge and 1 Chevy) but was always too busy to do much work on them myself. Now I'm playing catch up and learning a lot from this site. It's been invaluable to me.

Anyone else from the DFW area?
Welcome to the forum! We can't wait to see/hear more about the restoration of your F-150 as you embark on this journey!

Thank you. I'll make a post in the appropriate forum about the restore. But all it took to fire and run after 16 years sitting in the weather was a new distributor and coil. And of course purging all that nasty gas and oil and replacing all the filters. Then she fired right up. Since then I've been working my way through the truck. Curently working brakes and suspension.
