Smile Best regards from Norway

Just want to say hello to you all from Norway.
After a year with hospital, and a slow recovery, I miss my F-100
and all you good people in this great forum.
The snow is melting and the sun drops by here in the North.
And I am starting to make plans for my dear truck.
Just need to find out where to start, since I found a lot of oil under the
gearbox
It`s good to be back .

Hi, Helge, I'm glad your recovered from your illness, and hope you are back to enjoying your truck. I,m glad to see you have good taste in trucks in Norway.

My fathers family was from Norway, about 100 years ago, Stevanger area.

Thanks Wayne, there was tree things that kept me going, my truck, my wife and music, what more do a man need
Stavanger is a great town, my father lives there, I live at the westcoast, a bit longer north.
I must say, I`m very impressed about how much you good people "over there"
take care of this trucks, I feel like I am a part of your history, and I have learned a lot about this wonderful truck and a lot about American carhistory.
You have a lot to be proud about, I will try to bring some of this history in to the norwegian Amcar envirement.
Thank you!

Helge,

Glad you are feeling better. I know I missed my truck when I was ill. I hope that gearbox oil is from a bad seal and not a cracked case. If it's a seal, it can be a bit of a job to fix but at least it won't cost much.
