48 F1
 

well finally done it and bought a 48 f1 :-drink so far so good picked it up in Bakersfield CA and after driving through the valley of death and Mojave dessert where now sitting having a beer in Kennewick WA on the way to Missoula on part of the travel around the US in the old girl and pick up a few parts on the way BUCKET LIST ticking off as we go

Welcome to FTE! :-wink Wow! What a start!

We would love to see pictures of your truck and your trip, so we can live vicariously through you...

just figuring out how to post pics and write a few lines along with them. so far have had a fantastic time just cruising around and looking at your great country

Wow Welcome to FTE! As Joe said, we would love to see pictures.
How long are you going to be in the US? Do you have a planned route?

You need to upload them to the internet somewhere. I use photobucket. Then get the link to the picture, click on the mountain scene icon and past the link in the box that pops up. That's all there is too it.

Cheers Harrier will give it a go for the photos, sort of playing the route by ear depending on how the old girl goes so far she's gone well got abit hot through death valley as we came out the south side but hey so did I Ha and wow up the coast of CA and through the redwood forests and Yosemite what a beautiful country to travel had so many people want photos and spent ages chatting and telling stories its great

When you are in Missoula you will only be about 2 hours from where I live. Which way are you headed from there? What parts are you looking for, or have you found them already? Sounds like a fun trip.

Edit; just saw your pics, very cool truck!

"52 Merc" on here lives in Kennewick. PM him, maybe you can hook up! There are some others around there too.

Hi tinman 52 have a heater and controls to pick up in Missoula and just looking for bits as in mmm yeah could do with that or yep want that just looking and travelling and seeing what's out there to pick up for her

Here you go.

Hello trumph (is that from Triumph as in motor cycle?) your truck looks like a patina legend, but, not knowing what it is like mechanically, you must be very brave to set off travelling around America in any second hand car you just bought, let alone in that old girl.

Good luck with your trip, sounds like an absolute blast.

Nice looking truck. What kind of engine and drive train do you have?
