Orlando area?

Anyone in the Orlando area? Does anyone get together and do mod parties or just hang out and talk trucks? I would love to get some tips and just hang out with other ford truck members. I used to belong to the california chapter of ford truck world. Would like to build some friendships out here and learn more about my truck

looking for an Orlando mechanic

Any suggestions? I've already talked to Bob from Bob's Texaco and he's too busy (he gives the impression he's not interested in the work). I've got a 79 Bronco with a rebuilt 351 that had been sitting for about a year until last Friday. Replaced the carb, starter and solenoid, and had it burn through most of the gunk that had accumulated. Still needs timing worked on and tweaks to make it start up more smoothly.

Not a lot of work but we're on a schedule.

Any recommendations? You can also call me at 323-428-0913, or email me directly at billgilman[at]yahoo[dot]com
