don't be shy on your plans.
I have several build threads that I use for brainstorming on current and future projects.
not only can the folk here help you with common issues you don't know about, but they can help you plan for a better build.
we have people from all walks of life,
including people that need help airing up their tire, to people that build completely custom vehicles.
from the lowest buck possible to the extreme.
lots of smart people here have helped me with their projects, and my projects. directly and indirectly.
welcome to the forum
and as on any internet forum, "PICTURES, OR IT DIDNT HAPPEN"

I am reading as much as I can on this forum! I have a big job ahead of me. I feel like it's going to be worth it. My F250XLT has 340,500 miles and I have no record of Service or repair. And so far it all looks pretty original.
Last night I just cleaned the top of the engine. I was careful and didn't use too much degreaser and about 15 psi air. I didn't hit much on the fuel lines. Just the bigger puddles in the valley and on the heads. No problems starting. And sounds strong.
Welcome to the forum.

Welcome. to oil burners. I am from Florida, United States.
never put water down the intake valley. there's an express drain into your crankcase there straight to your oil pan. most of out motors have old hardened CDR seals that do little sealing and let in whatever liquids collecting on the valley pan right into the crankcase.

Hey! Welcome back! I'm in north west Florida, but my wife's from Rockford, Durand really. But her grandma lives on Crosby street. So, if you're wondering what to do with your truck, just ship it to Florida and it'll kinda be staying in the family......... right?

Do you remember the "Bagel Place"? A couple years ago my wife and myself got the idea to have them mail us a bunch of bagels, but when we looked them up........ they had been closed for a while. It was a blow. Those were great bagels.......on State St.
Edit:...... will I have to wait 6yrs for a reply, like @snicklas in the "show us your ride" thread?

Hahaha, that's right! My family stays very close to Crosby. On Fairview Ave. So if you know where I can by parts that would be great, Family! Especially a bed.
