Jonhasemail Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Good Afternoon Fellow Bullnose Enthusiasts, Really looking forward to sharing and learning more as our family starts a new project on our 1985 F-150. We picked her up at a local Estate Auction here, and we're looking forward to getting her back out on the road. Looks to be mostly original and lived all of her life thus far in NC. We're looking forward to learning more and sharing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rembrant Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Welcome aboard! That truck looks like a nice score. All still intact and the interior looks nice. Is the 302 carbed or EFI? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Lewis Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Welcome! Glad you joined. Nice truck! The interior looks remarkably clean. Where in NC? I ask because we have a map (Bullnose Forum/Member's Map in the menu) and we'd be happy to add you if we had a zip or city. Hope you'll start a thread in the main section or in Projects where we can follow along on your family's project. But is it you and a son or daughter? Who else is involved? What are your plans? So many questions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Machspeed Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Hey, good to have ya with us! Truck looks like it needs just a little TLC. Body looks straight with no obvious rust in the suspect places and interior remarkably clean. Look forward to seeing what you do with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rembrant Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Nice truck! The interior looks remarkably clean. Ain't that something? I love seeing a nice intact interior in a Bullnose like this. I bet this truck could be made to look very nice with a little elbow grease. I was trying to see the gear indicator...C6? Edit...it's in his signature, C5. My wife always tells me that I have to look..."just look" she says...lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many questions! Hi Gary, Thanks for the warm welcome! We're located in 27312 on the border between Chatham/Orange Counties near Chapel Hill. I will plan to start up a thread on the Projects page, my wife and twin three year boys will be a part of this project as well. Plans for now are to just get her cleaned up, change all the fluids, etc. We've heard that she's been sitting for about 8 years or so, before that she was driven daily by the prior owner. So she'll need some elbow grease/patience before she's ready to get fired up again. Outside of that, not sure at this point for future plans other than reading up on this forum/materials.
