Hello Everyone, I'm Joe
Hi guys. I'm glad I found this website. It is really neat.
I guess I can start off by sharing a little about my truck.
It is a 1969 F-100 that I bought off of a guy whole builds hot-rods for a hobby. He used it as a truck to haul around engines and such or his other cars. He really new how to take car of a car, so the truck is in beautiful condition.
He got bored one summer and decided to give it a little attention (He had just finished his 67 Nova and 56 Bel Air).
He painted himself, put on american racing wagon wheels, rebuilt the 360 V8, and added a dual Flowmaster Exhaust. The mufflers are from the very first line of flowmasters, so they sound really unique. The sound like the old original muscle cars. They have a real rip on them in the throttle, but a really deep rumble at idle. It's real fun to set car alarms off with it.
So, I have put on new tires, a tach, repainted the bed, added a setreo system, new seat cover, new carpet, new powersteering pump, new brake master cylinder, and new halogen head lights. It all worked before, but I just wanted to upgrade those parts.
So, here it is:
