Welcome to our newest member - lucky_strike
 
I want to welcome our newest member, lucky_strike. He lives in Visalia and is an owner of '69. In my mind, there are never too many bumpside Fords.

Welcome to our chapter. We are a group of Ford truck owners and enthusiasts who share information, stories, and have a good time.

Please take a moment to introduce yourself and tell us about your truck and your plans for it.

Welcome to the club Lucky Strike. Good bunch of folks here to help you out with your project whether it be advice, morale support, a little help when it comes time for wrenching (or watching:-X04)...
Glad to have you aboard.

lucky_strike 06-07-2010 01:40 PM

dont have the skill or tools to do anything like that lol

man oh man! Frame offs, IMHO, are the easier way to go if you can spare having the truck down for a little bit. Helps you to really learn everything about the truck too! I love projects like that... me and a buddy did a 66 f-100 last year with no motor or tranny in it and had the whole truck stripped in a couple of hours! haha chop shop! It's a desert truck now, looks purty

Welcome to the chapter, you are not too far from me here in Fresno. I don't currently have any Ford trucks, but maybe someday one will come my way again.
