Hello,
I'm Roy in Valley City.
I think this is very cool. sorta found this fourm by accedent.
I have the 76 F-100 4X4 my dad bought new, and recently aquired a 41 ton and a half truck. I've been a Ford guy all of my life, and I work at a salvage yard specializing in Ford Trucks.
New 31-10.5s on my 76, so LET IT SNOW
Have an awesome weekend everyone,

Roy.

 

There's a ND salvage yard specifying in Fords?! Where, and do you have any 73-79 trucks?

 

Here in Valley City. My boss loves Ford trucks, he likely has 100 73-79. Getting parts for my 76 is how I got to know them. They have also been an incredable information resorce as they have been collecting Fords since the 50s, really nice people too.
I shouldn't plug my place of work here on this fourm without permission. Contact me if you wish.

Roy,

Hello I Brenden from Minot. Automotive Junkie. Currently I have 85 F150 4x4, Lariat, SWB, 460, a 1996 F250 CC SB 460, and a 05 Sport Trac Adrenaline (daily driver). I am a Chiropractor. Work on Drag Cars, restorations, etc. in the evenings. I'm a huge BBF fan, have several in different forms.

I also am co-owner of Magic City International Dragway here in Minot.

Other cars I own are a 64 Ford Thunderbolt clone project, 64 Olds 442, 1967 GT 390 Mustang, 1968 Barracuda SS/AH Project, 1970 Mustang Mach 1 R code 428 CJ, 1973 'cuda 340, and a 78 King Cobra. I also drag race a 85 Mustang GT with a 572c.i. A460 headed stroker. It makes around 900 HP and runs low 6's @117 (1/8 mile). Hoping to get it into the upper 5's this year.

That's it. Take Care.

 

Sounds impressive Brenden!!!

I went to Motor Majic (Mania?) last year and it was a total blast. Missed the chance to go this year, maybe next year.

That 64 Thunderbolt clone sounds sweet, my parents had a 64 Galaxy 500XL that my dad restored, it had a 390 police interceptor with a 4 speed. Man I wish he hadn't sold it.

BTW welcome to FTE, and welcome to the ND Chapter!!!

 

I'm Tyler. I am currently living in Mandan and working in Bismarck. I've got a 78 all black Supercab F-250 XLT. C6, 400, 4wd. Pretty much stock at the moment, except for the interior is torn apart right now.

I've grown up with the 73-79 fords. Dad has a 79 F-250 Standard Cab XLT he bought new from the factory. It's yellow and black. It was ordered that way. We restored it in 2002-2003 and it got a brigher yellow. It's a 460 with a/c, 4x4, 4spd.

My Daily Driver is a black 97 Mercury Cougar XR7. Pretty much stock there except for a few appearance mods and a new exhaust with high flow cats and a Dual In / Dual Out muffler.

hey all, I just actually looked at my msgs and found out about the ND chapter, maybe im a bit slow .... but I am josh, i am originally from oregon, but was stationed in minot for six years and in 2006 I moved to fargo to goto school. I currently own a 99 ranger, a 98 zx2 and a 69 bronco, the last two are for sale =-). Before I left minot, I owned a 95 mustang gt that I constantly played with with my twEECer. I miss that car so much it hurts .....
My twEECer is also for sale being that I no longer have any EEC vehicles, $250 has it.

 

I am planning on going for the specialized program for 3 years to get both auto and diesel,but i'm startingout with diesel next fall with friend of mine from GMR trucking. Sry it took so long to post back.

 

Good luck on the diesel tech!!! I went to WSC and have an associates in D Tech. Haven't regretted it yet, although it's only been 7 years since I graduated.

The best thing about wrenching for a living is all of the great tools that you aquire and all of the "practice" you get on customer's equipment that comes in handy when working on your own junk.

 

Wow, looks like the ND chapter is picking up some new members in the last couple months.

 

Hey, Chevy/Ford guy. My daily is an 06 Silverado but I got a '95 F-350 Ext Cab Dually 7.3 Powerstroke 2wd I'm hoping to sell and get into a 1-ton Super Duty 4x4 for a welding rig.

I've got a '96 Ford Crown Vic as well, and a '57 Ford Custom 300 summer cruiser that's under the knife to get a little altitude adjustment via air bags.

Live in Fargo but from the country north of Jamestown. I'm a welder by trade and looking to start my own welding business as a side job and eventually be able to work for myself.
