New member from Portland Tn!
Hello! I just joined FORDification and am already finding so much useful information. I'd just like to introduce myself. I'm a 15 year old high school student who loves classic cars. I have a 1969 F-100 short bed with a 390 and a c-6 trans. (will post pics soon). I've already posted some questions about it and am looking forward to your feedback!
