I just found your website not too long ago and firgured I'd join in. I practically grew up in Ford trucks and have always loved em (although my daily driver is 4.7L Dodge Dakota... c'mon!!! I bought it just out of high school and figured "small truck, V8.... sounds like fun to me! I still love it.) The one truck that has always held a soft spot for me the '78 F-150. My dad had one with a 300 and a four speed that was an absoulute pile of rusty junk, he paid $100 for it... I thought it was the coolest thing in the world! The reason I joined here is to hopefully milk some information from some of you more knowledgable ones. See, about two months ago I bought my first resto project. Yep, its a '78 F-150; 'cept this ones got a 351 with a four. I figured if I was gonna fix up a truck to drive for fun I want to shift my own gears!!! Anyway, thought I'd say hey to everyone. Hope to talk to yall soon!!
