Hello all! Just wanted to introduce myself. I am 29 yrs old and live in Stillwater, OK with my wife and 4 kids. I am curretly going to school for a career in Law enforcement along with working 50+ hrs a week and spending time with the family.
I have had a love of Fords as long as I can remember which isn't uncommon for growing up in a "Ford" household. My first truck was a 1949 ford F-1 with a 460/C6 and it was FAST
, unfortunatly a few years ago some yahoo felt it was unnecessary to look before backing his 1 ton flat bed shop truck into on comming traffic 
(but hey at least he was driving a ford).
My passion is hunting.....namely predator hunting which is the insperation for my new project, I am planning a 1950 F-1 for a replacement. I want to make it 4x4. Not some big flashy show truck that will never make it off road and not some designated mud slinger of rock crawler. I want a very usable rig with a moderate lift and probably 33" tires. It will be driven on and off road often.
So this quest has lead me here to ask questions and learn as much as I can.
Thanks,
Mr.T
