Philadelphia, Pennsylvania U.S.A.. Like reading some of the posts in this chapter and seeing that trucks are an international hobby. Stop by our chapter from time to time and post up about your trucks and wheelin stories or just chit chat.

 

Cool animations soondg

 

G'day, just joined the site. I live on the Central Coast of New South Wales. Its a pleasant spot half way between Sydney and Newcastle in the expensive state.

My Ol girl is a bit of a grandfathers axe, and is about to get seriously made over. Girlfriend permitting . Its a 77 F100 LWB 2WD 351C 4spd with factory rust in the cabin and any where else I dare look. I'll post piccies and write up my misadventures as they happen.

I've owned a few Effie's in my time mostly ex ambulances usually Cleveland V8's or I've made them so.

Its always interesting to hear from other people and places.

Regards
Perry

 

Welcome Perry!!!

 

G'day from Kalgoorlie WA Perry, moved from the exepensive state myself due to the road *****(RTA) and the Police.

 

Hi to you all.Tim here I live in Australia on the east coast 3 hours south of Sydeny.I have a 86 F350 4x4 with a 94 7.3 tdi powerstroke in it and 96 front clip,5 speed and a 77 F250 4x4 with a 460 that is being rebuilt after a fire that runs on lpg. Both great trucks.Hope to get as much infomation as I can from fellow FTE's on how to make them go faster and look better than they already do.Also if there are many fellow Aussie FTE's out there it would be great to hear from you.

 

Welcome to the International Chapter Tim!!!

 

Hi Peter, greetings from Canada. You have real nice car hauler, I had a red 78 F350 dually.

 

I'm from Goulburn NSW, I've just posted some photos on my gallery (I hope :-/)
84 F350 with 96 front clip and custom bed, it's about to go into the shop for a colour change and so small changes (well maybe not so small;-))

 

Hi Aussie F350 truck sounds great.My truck is in the panel shop to,because I hit a tree not that hard but hard enough to F_*k the front and the panel shop have been wineing about the modifications and its was hard to get the right parts, anyway it should look good with the new paint job (white) could'nt get the insurance crew to pay for new colour.I will be looking at doing my tray soon because of that,I'm thinking of doing it in polished Ironbark should look good.What colour will you be painting your truck and bed?What donk do you have in it?

 

Hey Tim,
trees are not nice things to run into! I'm painting mine zest, that new metalic that the territories and Falcons come in. I've just ordered some dream beams with a three inch drop and at the moment I'm running a mild 351C, but this is all about to change. Tomorrow I'm off to look at a V10, I'm sure the 84 fire wall was never ment to fit one of these things in there, but where there is a will... I'm sure there will be some sleepless nights trying to sort this one out, but what the hell, it's my hobby, right?
