G'day from down under

Just a quick intro......Bought my first F100 today Sunday May 6 2007
It is a 1968 short wheelbase, that has been fitted with a 302 Cleveland with C5 auto. The body is pretty rough but it runs sweet, and for $2500 Aus dollars I feel I got a good deal.
Will post some pictures soon.
Cheers

Thanks for the welcome mitch150.
Yes I am a natural born Aussie, but I frequent the shores of USA quite often (Mostly west coast through to mid west)
$2500 AUS = $2000 USD approximately
