Thanks for FTE

I'm a new member and I'd like to say thanks for having a place that I can go to get reference information and help. I really don't know a lot about restoration, but I'm excited about learning how to work on my 71 F100 Sport Custom that I inherited from my dad. I really love old cars and trucks, and I certainly love this truck. From what I can see visually, it doesn't have too many things that are of a major concern. It has a 351W and I guess it has a C3 transmission. From what I gather, the engine is not the original, but she runs really well. The body is in good condition, but needs some work for some minor dents and rust areas.

Any advice that you all can provide will be much appreciated.

Thanks
