New guy from the darkside.....

Dave from Vancouver Island, BC, Canada here. I recently became the proud owner of an immaculately maintained 69 F250, rustfree and runs perfect. The original paint has worn through so it will get fresh paint soon, but needs nothing else. The previous owner was one of those meticulous guys that keeps his machines spotless and sticks to the maintenance schedule religiously, and I bought it for 1600 bucks to tow my just bought 61 Apache home from Oregon(am I allowed to say 'apache' on here?). The Apache is for sale already, but the Ford is just too sweet, so my daily driver 71 Chevy longhorn is being sold instead and the Ford is staying. My wife and I are Racers/hotrodders and have quite a stable of all marques. Some of our other rides are an 11 second 71 Cuda street car, 70 Cuda SuperGas(under construction), 91 vette convertible, 60 Pontiac bubbletop with flames and wide whites, 71 skylark ragtop, 70 skylark rat rod, 3 demo cars, and the previously mentioned chevy pickups. Now that I have a Ford I thought I'd better hook up with you Ford folks. I'll get a few pics up soon.

Hello and Welcome!

That is a respectable collection you have there. Your 69 was quite a find and will be a head turner. Checkout the forums and be sure and stop in your local chapter: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/forum165/

Enjoy yourself here!
