Hello FTF! I just picked up my 1969 F-100 from northern Alabama this past Saturday!!! This is my third Ford truck I've owned in my 41 years (1st: 1978 F150 XLT Lariat 4x4, 2nd: 2006 Ranger XL). Although I'm getting to be an old fart, I'm pretty much a novice when it comes to mechanics, so I'm sure I'll have a lot more questions than input or advice. I look forward to getting to know this site and it's members.
My "new" truck is an all original 1969 F-100 Custom Cab short bed with 302 and 3-on-the-tree...for now. Lots of plans.
Not sure where to start.
I definitely want to go LOW!
The paint and interior I plan to keep very close to stock. She has minor surface rust which I plan to keep, I dig the patina. She's rough around the edges but all in all a very solid truck.
Her name, given to her from my twelve year old daughter, is Baby Belle from 'Bama.
Thanks in advance!

. Well I had Fords, but never had a problem with them. So there was no need to fix anything.
-built, but more than tough anyways. They are even able to understand the poor and raped English written by an old Kraut.
