intro

whats up everyone? Ive been cruising around the site for about a month now, just recently bought a 84 F250. This truck is a frankenstein of a vehicle. used to be a flatbed, now has an 8 ft bed. only has the side fuel tank. rear one is missing. the ignition is from a 71, so im running points. just rebuilt the carb today. havent reinstalled it yet, as i did it at work and drove my impala today. i have one hellacious vacuum leak somewhere and hopefully it was the carb gasket. supposedly, the engine was rebuilt a couple years ago. it has brand new distributor, fuel pump, fuel filter, plugs, and wires. anyways, im from ohio, living in missouri right now as im a drill sergeant at fort leonard wood. been in the army 6 years now and im getting out next year. just turned 24, got a wife and two girls. my other two vehicles are a 2005 chevy trailblazer ls and a 2000 chevy impala.
