Hey Cody - thanks for stopping by!

We have a couple of chapter members in Simi, a few in the Valley, some in Santa Clarita - so you're not alone out there.

Yep - it's big allright. It can be a little overwhelming at first.

If you're interested in joining the SoCal chapter, click the *here* link in my signature and I'll get you hooked up. We have a get together every month or two. It's free, and it's a good group of folks we have in here.

Since our chapter covers such a wide area we try to move our meets around as much as possible. We met out in Porter Ranch as well as Woodland Hills this year, which are both pretty close to you. We also had meets in Escondido, Anaheim, Long Beach, El Monte, Azusa Canyon and out at El Mirage.

We have quite a variety of trucks in our group from showpieces to daily drivers, but they're all Fords. That alone makes them worthy.

Probably not until after the first of next year - the holidays make planning a meet in the coming 6 weeks pretty difficult.

When we do get something going, it will be posted as a stickie at the top of the forum

well thank you sir. but my previous truck was fully custom.built from the ground up. inside to outside. everything was done on it. so going from that to a somewhat stock X is quiet a bit of change. but once i get back on my feet(havnt been working for 8 months) then this thing will definately be getting done up more.plans are for a 20/37s combo,possibly a newer front clip(dk much about them yet), blacked out windows,billet grilled and maybe a new rear bumper as well as some new paint. i dont like this paint at all

edit: and sorry for the avi being so small. i cant figure out how to add a sig
