Finally a site to be proud of!!!!
How is everybody? Well I'm here to annouce I finally bought the truck that I have wanted for about 18yrs. Shes a 1972 Ford F250 With 140,000 original miles on her. I bought'er for $1500. She has a lil rust n the floor pans and a lil bit on the doors, other than that she fires right up every start, even when its below zero here in the great AK. I have many plans for her and I am proud to now be a member of FORDification. Watta great site to dedicate to the best years Ford had to offer (In my opinion). I will have pics up n runnin as soon as my son brings me the damn camera cord...
Anyway shes got a 360V8 4X4 longbed custom, red w/white cab top, all original. Cant wait to post the pics to see what kinda response I git from this beauty, I'm sure i'll get alot of responses and alot of helpful hints from the room. Anyway once again nice to join a family of great Ford enthusiast.

I just had a good friend of mine move from Anchorage, Alaska; to Alabama... He was station'd with the Air-Force up there.... Not sure if you'd know of him of not... but figure'd i'd take a shot in the dark & see, his name's Kerry (nick-name'd "SARGE" with a lotta the 4x4/off-road guys) Had a Big 4x4 Bronco II... & then bought & built an even bigger 4x4 Explorer. Later!
