Hi everyone! First off just call me Ed or ozz, I am 39 and live in Dairy Oregon. That's 20 miles east of Klamath Falls out in no mans land. I make my living running a production machine shop in Klamath Falls and spend my off time camping, boating, fishing and hunting. Hmmm typical southern Oregon boy

I currently have three Ford trucks. My most recent and daily driver is a 1992 F250 Super Cab 4wd 7.3 IDI. My wife drives our built 1975 F250 Camper Special, both these can be seen in my garage. We also have a 1986 F150 that is my son's.

I drive Fords because I would rather spend the day out in the shop working on my Ford then driving around town in a Dodge or Chevy. I have had many Fords over the years and nobody will ever tell me anyone builds trucks better or stronger!

Thanks, I feel at home already
The boats a 1968 Evinrude Sportsman 155, old Tri-hull with a Buick V6 231 I/O. I spent the last three years rebuilding her so this year I plan to enjoy more time on the lake!

A guy can never have enough boats or Fords! I've got 3 boats right now. A 1978 25' Trojan, a 1960 Sanger 18' Drag Boat with a 428 Ford, and a 1968 16' Sidewinder with a 200 hp I/O. I sold my 38' sailboat last summer.............

Hello

Hello and greetings; I'm just like my screen name "old & broke" but that dose'nt stop me, only slows me down a notch. I go by Jeff but you all can call me what ever you like, as long as it's not late for a meal. My son James and I have several Fords that we play with; 63 f 100 step side short box 223 4 spd.,65 f 250 4x4 step side with utility sides 300-6 4 spd., 68 f 250 crew 2wd 300-6 4 spd.,80 bronco 302 auto., 82 bronco 300-6 4 spd., 2 Taurus' 93's, and 1 dead 79 e150 van. This is only the ford list. As you can tell we collect things. With all this to tinker on there is'nt much time left to enjoy our hobbies; hunting, fishing, working with horses and anything else we can do outside.I'm not very good at typing ( to slow ) would much rather sit down with a cup of coffee or a soda and tell terrible lie--- I mean get aquainted. Any who would like to feel free, my time in winter is very flexable. I'm in LaGrande and get over the hill occasionally both ways. No PM's yet, try the E-mail or what ever is propper here. I can't say enough good about this site, I'm looking forward to more interaction. I did'nt notice a list of responsabilitys or requirements for chapter membership, other than common curtisy and mutual respect. Please let me know what is needed. Thank you OBCB
