I recently picked up a 1966 F100, and stumbled upon this site. Lots of good info and am super excited to get on here and pick your brains, ask dumb questions and share my trials of getting the old girl shaped up for a everyday driver!
Cheers,

Re: New guy from Sunny Decatur Illinois!
Welcome from sunny southeast Texas where we don't have to shovel our water... 
You have several Slick memebers pretty close to where you live. TruckFarmer lives near Metamora and there are some more guys spread around the central area there near Bloomington, etc.
Glad to have you.

Re: New guy from Sunny Decatur Illinois!
Not sure where its from... At first I didn't like her, but now she is growing on me. Something about watching her fly down the road makes it fun. Anyone know where she's from?shipwrecked wrote:What's the hood ornament?
I'm going to try to keep this truck original with some small changes that bring more out my personality.
