Newbie Update...

I just wanted to tell a group that would appreciate this info. I found a grille emblem for my 1972 S. I've been looking online for about 4 months, but everything seemed very expensive. Finally found one at a junk yard for $10.00--I LOVE junk yards! By the way, there was also a 1963 or maybe 1965 F85 that still had a lot of parts left on her. The yard is in Helena, MT and is called Al Rose Wrecking (should be able to find him on the internet). Also, I found my original AM chrome radio in the trunk and re-installed it this weekend--I love the look in the dash! Thanks for you time! I'll try and get more pics soon!

Sweet

Nice looking car; that's a hard way to do wheel stands!

Looks like the hands fell off your clock too...don't vacuum until you find them..

Good job, don't forget to raise your landing gear before you take off

Glad to hear you're getting what you need.
Beautiful country where you are. My sis lived in Clinton for quite a few years, now is out in Thomson Falls.
