1982 Ford F150

I just bought back my first vehicle - an '82 F150.  I bought it with 64,000 miles on it from the original owner in '93 and put about 70,000 miles on it myself.  Sold it in 2010 and the owners put about 4,000 miles on it since '10.  They put some significant dings in it but nothing that can't be fixed!  Was still running when it was parked, but needed a starter (which they never got to).

I figured I'd fix it up and teach my kids to drive a manual transmission.  Initially, I just want to get the 300 I6 running well for a daily driver then restore it once my kids are done driving it.  So, I've got about 6 years before I'll be restoring it.

Here's a photo

Awesome! Great looking truck. Any idea what the 300 needs to get going? There are several 300 fans here. -John

That is a great story.  Hope you get it running quickly.
