Hello I'am Mike
I am just getting going on this computer stuff. I have a 1974 F250, and I am starting a full resteration on my 1967 mustang. I love my truck. She has a 390ci. motor,1200 lbs wench,35 in. tires,and duel exsost that come out before the rear. I just put a new wiring harnis in her. Most people roll there eyes when I tell them I left the points in but thay let me spend a little more time under the hood, and they work just fine. I am also a hunter safety instructor. I work in a hydrolic repare shop were I weld, and wrench on cranes, tracktors, trucks, and everything else with hyd.

Welcome Mike! It is great to have another Ford truck owner who likes to work on his truck. I live over the hill from you Vallejo. Welcome to the site. You will find lots to learn about and to share with others.

Hey Mike,
I too have a 74 F250, with short exhaust and points ignition. However, I am riding on 33" tires though, but some day...
When are you doing the hunter safety course. I have some questions for you later regarding the course, if you should put one on some time.

Welcome Mike,
I have worked so much on my son's '73 F250, I kind of know it inside and out. Literally. We rebuilt it as a 360 because we like running regular and didn't want to spend the extra on the crank and rods... (it needed new pistons anyway).
BTW, if your truck is a stock 4x4, you can call it a '74 highboy. Everyone here will know exactly what you mean.

Lots of good folks here, and you can learn quite a bit about Ford trucks.
