Smile Hello from a newbie

Hello all, just wanted to take a minute of your time and introduce myself. My name is Matt, and I have just purchased a 1978 Ford F-150 4x4. It is the third ford full size truck I have had, but by far the best. Aside from a little rust (okay, a lot of rust in the bed) it's in exceptional condition. I'm sure I'll have many questions for you all, but what better place to do it than a forum specifically for the best trucks ever built?

Welcome to FTE!

Please read the FAQ sticky at the top of this forum.

your truck likely came with a 351M/400 so read this. http://home.earthlink.net/~bubbaf250/index.html
