Thumbs up Howdy from Fort Worth

I joined this site because I like & work on Ford cars & trucks + other models but mainly for a good friend & neighbor who has been a Ford man all his life. He has a '68 F-100 351 Interceptor as his daily driver. Bought it when it was a couple of years old. One of the best neighbors I've had. His name is Buddy [really] & he has taught me alot about turning wrenches.His health is failing & I was thinking about getting him a membership to a Ford club for his B-day. He loves to talk Ford trucks.Any help in that area would be greatly appreciated. He has no computer so I'll be his Liason.He lives in the past. The rent is cheaper

From: Enjoying the real world.
Okay, since he's not online that rules us out.

Basically, I guess he needs a local club. Start here: https://www.ford-trucks.com/director...ing.php?cat=33

And try here:
http://www.hemmings.com/index.cfm/fuseaction/clubs.main
Hemmings Motor News has the largest listing of older vehicle clubs in the world.

Also, I recommend he get in touch with a local chapter of the American Truck Historical Society: http://www.aths.org/chapters.asp - They have 4 chapters in Texas.
