Hello everyone

Just joined and wanted to introduce myself. Probably gonna get flamed for this. Lol ,but I've been a chevy man all my life , I don't have any hatred towards other manufacturers just kinda went the chevy route. My dad was a ford man all his life which made for some pretty fun family functions. There was always some ribbing and picking about their favorite brand. Before my dad passed he was insistent that he wanted me to have his truck. He passed several years ago and think I'm ready to start on it. I've been catching up on ford's technology and engineering and the do's and don't also. Just wanted to say thanks to all that shared their knowledge and information on this site . The truck is a 1973 360/c6 bright lime explorer. Looking forward to the journey.
. Thanks

They're all good and all bad. They all have shortcomings and advantages. If Chevys were really thaaaaaat awful, they wouldn't compete and would be out of business. Same goes for Dodge and Toyota and etc.

Welcome aboard!
