Hello all

Brand new member as of today. I really like what I've seen here so far.

My '83 F150 Flareside 4X4 has been with me since new. She's starting to show the age, soooo, a re-do is underway.

300 c.i. 6 w/ 4 speed, PB PS. Bare bone truck.

Mechanically, there are no issues but the body, especially the box side panels are needing attention. Front fender edge rot as well as underside of hood. All else is in reusable shape.

Planning on a lot of "Junkyard Upgrades" such as AC, PW etc. Also have a disc brake rear axle to be installed when time permits.
