Future Mods:
Future plans are a flip chip to tune in my nitrous system and also have
my eye on a few autometer guages.
What other Fords do you own or have owned?
My first car was a Ford. A 70 Mach 1 Mustang. Also had a 69 XR-7 and
a 86 Bronco fixed up. Recently have owned Expeditions, Explorers and
there are more than a couple of Windstars floating around the Family.
Wife drives a customized 03 LTD Explorer.
Other Comments
Had been thinking about a truck for a couple of years before I bought
this on. Was getting tired of fixing up garage bunnies that just took
up space and wanted something I could work on with my youngest and
drive all year. Picked up the truck brand new and started doing just
do a few things to make it different. Well here it is seven years later.
:) Not done yet and with the enjoyment I have had doing it and meeting
alot of you don't think it will ever be.
