New Member waves hand

Post by FlaFordGuy »

Greetings from Orlando FL.

Im the proud owner of a 1971 Ford F100, "Survivor" with 31000 miles. The truck is seafoam green over mallard green, 302 2v, auto, with dealer installed a/c.
The truck was used on a South Fl ranch to haul feed and such, it was parked in 1982 in a pole barn and sold at an estate sale. (the seat was recovered and fresh paint added) note the dents and dings were left untouched.. :D

All ive done to her so far is added dual exahust, and plan to add a am/fm radio with the two in one speaker in the dash.. 8)

Heres the photo album

Good afternoon FlaFordGuy,

I really enjoyed those photos of your truck--what a classic color combination! And it looks like it's in really nice shape.

Above all, I wanted to complement you on choosing a funny (in a good way) title for this introductory thread. :) I like it.
