Just got here
Well, my name is Brandon, and last weekend I was told that I'll be "inheriting" my grandfather's '68 F100. I was going to get it when i first got my licence, but my grandfather died when i was 14, so my uncle took it and has had it ever since. He told me that now he doesn't need it, and wants me to have it, and I'll be getting it next winter. I don't know a whole ton about the truck, but it is rust free (been an arizona car for most of its life.) It needs paint, but as far as I remember the body is in good condition as well. I know my grandfather bought it new, and last i heard it only had about 50,000 original miles on it. My uncle has only used it in the winters in Arizona, so I'm doubtful that it has much more than that now. I'm not sure which engine it has, but I'm almost certain it is either the 360 or 390 FE. I have a few plans for it, but mostly I'm looking around to see what is available for this engine/chassis, and seeing what other people have done. I'm very excited about this, and can't wait for next winter to get here
