Newbie Introduction

Hey Folks,
I just wanted to introduce myself real quick. My name is Al and i just picked up an '85 f250 diesel. Now im new to the diesel and truck world, but have been working with gas engines and cars for a while. I currently own a 1985 Oldsmobile 442 with a built Olds 350 motor - all done my me. Nothing super fast, but certainly torqy. Anyway, im excited to be moving up to the trucking world.

Anyone know of good junkyards in the area with ford trucks avail? I need some parts for my truck.

Oh, im located in Southern NJ in Glassboro. Anyone else down this way?

Great Site!
-AL Conforti
