Another WV newbie
A moderator from the introductions forum pointed me to this forum. I did not know about the different chapters on this site... very cool.
Anyhow, I just recently retired my 1984 Ranger (297k miles) in favor of a 2004 F250 Crew Cab gasser (5.4L).
Also, I've been restoring a 1975 Stroppe Bronco for the past several years and this is where my username comes from.
I'm from Pocahontas County... lived here all my life except for the 5 years I was in Montgomery going to college.
I posted some pics in my other intro thread...

One thing, if you are changing the steering column like my friend you may want to call and talk to Centech about what harness you need. It took me about 8 hours to figure out the retrofit of the new harness and later model column.

I guess Snowshoe would have gotten a lot more though.
Well it looks like the next storm is here.
Are we ready?
