Hello,
This is my first time posting on this site and just wanted to say hello and tell a little bit about myself. Im 23 and i live in Virginia beach Va. I am currently working on my first project rebuild, I have a 351 windsor, FMX auto tranny and a 9 inch rear end all out of a 75 ford LTD. Im trying to find a classic f100 from the range of about 65-77, I really like the late 60's body styles. I have already had the block of the 351 machined and bored .030 over. All I am using from the original motor is the block itself. Almost all other parts I will buy aftermarket. Im trying to build a street strip truck that i will be able to drag in some but still drive daily if i want to. Well i hope to get a lot of feed back because i know i will have A LOT of questions along the way, thats why i came to this site in the first place since this is my first restoration project. Looking forward learning a lot from you guys... -Justin

Hey there, welcome to the site! You might notice that this thread will be moved to the "user announcements" forum (just below this forum on the front forum page) when the moderators see it. Go check out the older Ford's forum located about half-way down the front forum page to see if you can find some information about your truck you're looking for. Also, there is a 351w forum here too that you may find some good information in.

Welcome!

Stan

Welcome !!!!
spent some time in Va Beach a LONG time ago....
worked for a company that had distribution centers all over the nation and Va Bch had the smallest cetner so I'd go there to install the new software as the first test many times...
Had talked to a girl there much b4 we went for the installs - Her husbnad was a Commander ? of one of one of the big carriers... little voice...sweet sounding girl...
got there the first time and she's 6'4" red hair and about 230 !!!!!

Nothng like the mental picture I had of her.... but good people

Even talked me into putting in some parameters so they could schedule the distribution such that it would bounce the allotments "when the fleet was in"

Really !
