hello maryland chapter members,
i was born and raised in pasadena md but now reside in arbutus .i had ford trucks all through my teenage/adult life i started with a 68 ford f100 3/4 ton
with a 240 6 cylinder with a 4 on the floor with granny gear that truck was tough my next truck was a 71 ford 1/2 ton with a 300 6 cylinder a great truck. my father had a 83 f250 with a 300 6 which he gave to me a very reliable truck to use .now 15 years later and 2 kids i now have my dream project a 69 f100 with 360 v8 my first v8 it needs a lot of work but im getting it done little by little the motor is the biggest challenge because i changed it to headers now timing and tuning are the key i cannot wait for carlisle i did go spring but not to much there hopefully ican meet some other old ford truckowners with some tips..

thanks big ronnie herr

Hi Ronnie...good to meet ya. I'm in Millersville (Old Mill) and have been all over Maryland (as well as Virginia) in my previous job (office is on Mountain Road, Pasadena). I am now retired and livin' the life of leasure (honey, do this, honey do that)!

Stop by at the B/S Forum and say Howdy. You say you are going to Carlisle - have you sined up yet? If not or are not commited to a group, that a gander at the sticky at the top of the 1st page and maybe spend your time there with us, the Mid-Atlantic group.

BTW, I'm Bud

Hey guys,
My name is Jim. I live in Baltimore, but currently bouncing back and forth between home and Harpers Ferry, West-by-God-Virginny for the summer. Just picked up my 1st Ford Truck, a 2006 F-250 Powerstroke and loving it! Hoping to get together with some of the regulars when time permits. Always look forward to getting some good info from you guys on upgrades, maintenance, etc.
Thanks, Jim
