In my garage?

Thanks for the welcome. I really am not a ford purist. I really do like all vehicles. Just happens that I have all fords, well almost, in the stable. I have a 1956 ford f100 (I'll post pics eventually, lol), a 1966 Ford Mustang Conv. (was my Dad's back in the eighties), another '56 f100 project truck, a 1970 Berry Mini T dune buggy (runs but is a project), a 9,000 lb bend pak lift and a whole lotta clutter! Oh, and my daily driver is a '99 F250 super duty 4x4, crew cab with a measly little 5.4 gas engine in it. It's a thrashed truck but the wheels are still on it!

I dont have much off time. I run two businesses. One is an asphalt maintenance biz located in the Palm Springs area. I have no employees and do all the work myself. IMy wife and I have also started a new powdercoating biz called First Place Powder Coating in Banning. Both of these keep me pretty busy. When I have some time off, we like to go to car shows with friends or just to go for a cruise. Any other time we have left is usually spent doing friggin' yardwork here at the Rock Ranch! Oh, by the way, my name is Bill. Thanks. Talk soon.

thanks guys. Yeah it's my ol' farm truck, y'know? The color is GM's Bahama Blue with a bit of extra silver mixed in. I got a good laugh rewgarding Brady's comment on the windshield. I had to scroll up and look at the pic again because I have little ***** on 'em and the wipers are under the seat, lmao. Lotta good they do there. Especially when I'm caught in those terrible rainstorms out here in the desert. Oh, and that's one bad-a** '67 you got there as well, Ron.
