I'm new

Hey guys, I am a totally new guy to this. I have basically given a 79 F250 by my father-in-law that he has owned since brand new. I want to rebuild it and make it a nice truck. It will not be a primary driver, mostly something to pull my boat with and maybe play in the mud every once in a while. I also have a 91 F250 with a 7.3 IDI diesel and have been on the DieselStop forum. Those guys can fix anything. From browsing the forums in here I can see that there are equal experts in all aspects of these trucks too. I have never done anything like this before but I am a fairly quick study. I look forward to reading the forums and I'll probably bug you guys to death with questions. I'll use the search option as much as I can. Once again I look forward to using this forum. If there is anyone close to Hot Springs, Arkansas that could help me with some hands-on advice, I would appreciate it greatly.
