Figured I would introduce myself.

Well I know some have probably been who the eff is this Don S. Guy? Well If you happened to be around the 73-79 Truck forum then you might have seen my post. But I just picked up last week Tues. Mar. 11 a '78 F-150 SC 4x4. Pretty stoked cause I have grown up around older fords. First Vehicle I drove legally was a '72 Ford F-100.


More pics can be found here

I am not new to forums and/or working on cars and trucks. Just new to actually having a vehicle with 4x4 capability. My other car is a '91 VW Corrado, and if you think someof these truck have electrical gremilins, you ain't seen nothin till you dive into a VW.

Sweet looking truck. Where in WA are you from?

BTW...We are always looking for new members that can make it past the 'hazing'...lol

Put in a 'Join Request' and I will respond...I am pretty sure that you will fit in well...You may need some mudders or hip waders to make it through the BS though.

One of my favorite trucks after the 67-72 body style.
No contest if they would have made the supercab on that body style though-

I loved my '68 F150...Just wish they would have had a 302 before '69...It was a pain converting everything down the drive line.
