Back in the game!

I sold my '78 F250 4x4 in July, 2000 when I got into a bind and needed money to settle some debts. I've been on the lookout for another truck for a few months and haven't had any luck until last week. The guy who bought my truck in 2000 just had a baby and needed money so he offered to sell it back to me and I couldn't refuse . The truck only has 1,600 miles put on it in 4 yrs and is in great shape. 400\4 speed, rust free, front winch, locking gun box behind front seat, PS, cruise control, hitch, 3 gas tanks, nice interior, etc. Don't know the gear ratio yet. Sure is nice to have the old girl back. I have pics but why can't I post attachments?

Good news, Fat&Bald!

Now get to posting them pics. That was one sharp body style.

Alright, I've got my gallery and album w\pics set up but I'm not sure how to post a link to it. The truck needs a few things like new fuel lines, has a shimmy when braking at about 40mph and a shimmy when driving at about 55mph, will need new exhaust soon and I'd like to add headers. Will also need tires next year and I'd like to level the truck out and add a suspension lift as well. Looks like I'll be asking lots of new guy type questions in the tech forums.
