Re: Hi guys, newbie from CA

Thank you much RestroRob!

Ok, so here is a little story about "Patch".
She is a survivor in my eyes. In the 2003 Cedar Creek and Julian fires, she was the only structure left standing while the surrounding buildings burnt down to the ground. I bought her from the guy in Julian who lost his house and property. The guy and his daughter were going to restore it together but his daughter got cancer and so they opted to sell it. I promised him that I would restore the truck and he is keeping me to it

She is a stout "little" farm truck, 85% original. I am the 3rd owner and have the original pink slip but prior to me, it was kept in the family. It has roughly 40K original miles. She has the 283 with a 4 speed hydraglide. Rear air shocks with shrader valves
Nevermind the mustang, that is my bro-in-laws project that is now out of my garage
