Entrant #29: WelderScott's '78 F150
Owner: WelderScott
Location: Skiatook, OK
Model: 1978 F150
Engine: Stock 351M
Driveline: NP435 w/a NP205
Story: Good Day Ford enthusiasts and thank you Gary for opening up your garage to other classic Fords outside the Bullnoses. I'm just getting started at this and I'd call myself a novice (at best).
This is "Ole Red." A 1978 F-150 4x4 with a 351M motor, NP435 transmission, NP205 transfer case and still has his gun rack in the back window. I pulled Red out of a barn in western Kansas and he belonged to a friend of mine that would often invite me hunting out there, as shown below.

I've already put a lot of work into Red and he is now fairly mechanically sound (with the help of Gary's expertise). I plan on posting my progress with more pics and info for those that may be interested. I look forward to being part of this forum and sharing info with those with common interests.
Both of my kids learned to drive manual transmissions in Ole Red. In the first video you can my daughter learning to drive him, and in the second you can see my son soloing.
