Newbie with 69 F100

Post by gbass82 »

Greetings everyone,

I recently purchased a 1969 F100 with the 360 V8 and 3 speed manual transmission. It runs great but needs some work to get it back to its glory days. I am looking forward to chatting with everyone. I know I will need some guidance (mainly with bodywork stuff) as I go further with the restoration and it seems like this is the place to seek help. I'm in North Carolina.

Thanks everyone! I failed to mention where I am in my original post so I went ahead and added it (I'm in NC). I am really enjoying the site so far and finding a ton of helpful information. :fr:

Glad to see NC represented well here. I live in Selma which is 35 minutes south of Raleigh. I am originally from Clinton, NC which is half an hour east of Fayetville.
