Hello to all. I can't say I've been lurking, but I have picked up quite a few good tidbits of information from FTE, and I figured I'd join and ask a few questions that I can't find the answers to online.

I currently don't own any Fords, but I've always been somewhat of a Ford guy at heart, and my parents had Ford pickups for most of my childhood. I do, however, have a good number of Fords that I want to build.
Here's a list:
  • '64-'66 F250 rock crawler build; 42s, tons, all that jazz. More on that later.
  • '64-'66 F100 street truck; probably bagged and dropped, not sure on powertrain
  • '77 F250 supercab longbed; (My original dream truck) 4x4 converted, 37s, possibly 7.3 Godzilla and ZF5 (?)
  • Dentside flareside street truck; "muscle truck" build, 460, 2wd, manual trans, maybe a little lower than stock, probably custom suspension with IFS and a solid rear on coils
  • '61-'66 F600/F700 possibly as a tow rig, possibly as just a farm truck
I currently have a '05 Dakota V8 and a 1966 Jeep CJ5A that I'm trying to build into somewhat of a crawler on 33s. If you're interested on that, I have a build thread over on the ECJ5 Jeep forum under the same name as I have here.
