Hello from Thomasville GA with a 1985 F150 (i6, C300)


Recommended Posts

Hello from Southwest GA. I have had this F150 for a few years now after inheriting it. It was a farm truck that has stayed stock and has just over 105k miles as of February 2020.

4.9L Inline 6, still carbureted, C300 auto 4 speed, most things are stock and work... I just dropped a chunk to redo the fuel system with a new tank and internals to stop the leaking (stop of tank rusted out!)

I'm joining because I know I'm going to need help along the way in the form of information, motivation, inspiration and maybe even connecting with others to offer help! I hope this becomes a hobby! I've got limited funds but I have to start somewhere.

Things I want to repair/Upgrade as of 2020:

>PARTS/Repairs

Brakes/rotors (seizing front calipers, rusted master cylinder, flush, etc)

Replace all Rear view mirrors

New Blower motor

New Exhaust system (all rusted out from headers to back)

Repair tailgate (spring or mechanism is shot so I just jam it)

Interior: Repair bench seat and cover, Top dash cover, Door speakers/radio

Washer fluid pump locking seal

>UPGRADE

Limited slip rear diff

removable steel frame Ladder rack w/ pressure washing setup OR Camper top

Toolbox

Upgrade Hitch Adapter

New Bumpers with front wench

Slight lift with larger tires now that I'm in red mud country

Gloss black wheels

Thanks for any help and leads!
