Indiana New Member 71 F-100

Post by Wolf0r »

Greetings from Indiana, I have a 1971 F-100 I am in the process of customizing. I bought this truck from a salvage yard. I found out that the man who used to own it, Died in it! He was a scrapper, he made his living with this truck. His spirit lives in in this project. I will post a few photos later when I get time. And more of the history on this "haunted" pickup.

I'm glad there is a site for Ford Trucks again. I have been busy with other projects and lost track. That other site is gone!?! FTE Sounds like everyone has it together here. I have been collecting parts for this truck in hopes of making it a daily driver. Disk brakes, Rebuilt C-6, Body panels, etc. I still lack fenders and a hood. I plan on fuel injecting this truck with a late 5.0 or 5.8. I do have a 351c from a 70 Ranchero that would fit also. Haven't committed to anything yet.
