Hello from WA. I'm looking at a 1960 F-100 4X4 thats been owned for 47 years by a retired mechanic from the Ford garage in town. It needs some body work but he put a new V8 292 in it less than 2000 miles ago. So I signed up for these forums to get some information from knowledgable enthusiasts.

I've wanted a good, old truck for a long time. My first "car" was a 72' F250 4X4. I purchased the truck from a neighbor farmer for $50 in 1990. We tore it up in that truck. The corolla is getting a little tiresome for this hillbilly.

 

Welcome to FTE, sounds like a smokin deal! A 1960 F-100 is a neat ride and a 4X4 is even more so.
Drop into the 1948 - 1960 truck forum to find all about these trucks.

Welcome aboard theenjoyer! Nice truck, several peeps would be interested. Like Fomoko said check out the classic truck sections and pop over to the Washington Chapter and say Hi.

If you're close to Whidbey Island, we're having a G2G starting June 22nd so we can all meet 'n greet.

 

Thanks for the welcome. I did buy that pickup and will check out the WA forums. This is an extremely informative, helpful and fun corner of the WWW.

 

Congratulations on your new toy.
See you in the 1948 - 1960 F1, F100 And Larger F-Series Trucks forum
