Hello from Oshawa
I've been meaning to join up on this site for quite awhile now and i'm sure glad I did 
I was looking for something local and low and behold FTE has an Ontario chapter.
Now it don't get any better then that
Sooooooo...... I'm from the durham region and if anyone has any tips on getting parts or anybody knows of any good shops in the neighborhood (Oshawa) I'd sure be grateful for any leads.
Wishin' a great evening on everyone

Welcome to the chapter.
There are a few of us in the Durham area and some a little further east. I see you have an older truck which is what I prefer. When you need something, post on the want ads thread at the top, advise is free everywhere here at FTE and it comes with a health dose of opinion too!
I do all my own work so I don't know many shops. Master Mechanic in Ajax is where I go when I need a certification and he's been good to me. Besides he owns a '70 302 Boss Mustang so he understands us old car/truck nuts better than most mechanics!

Thanks guys
Beast12, that's one clean '85 and I never even seen a '98 Nascar, pretty mean looking.
Thankyou FP_5, I will check your mastermechanic guy out as i Need a couple of things done. I too like to do my own work, just don't have the luxury of time.
Btw, nice truck, I love that generation, one day I'm going to get me one of those

Welcome Rich
I live in Courtice so not too far down the road from you.
How do you like being a Ford nut in a GM town (not so much any more).
As Matt said feel free to ask questions.
