Thanks!

I am in early retirement now ,that's why you see me on the forum all day long ,now my body is broken down ,
Bad back ,aching joints ,hands cramp up real bad ,an a bad case of burnout!
The owner was pleased ,they had me do their cabin ,yea ,it was a son of a gun!

down ,but also ,parts are high an could not afford those parts needed like new arm rest an wot not ,most of the stuff
like paint ,seat cover , tilt steering column ,wheel was E-bay!

Mine is a 5th gen 68 F100 ,known as a bump side!

Yours is a 6th gen ,known as a dent side ,an some are very popular as for a work horse ,camping or pulling a trailer ,
even a 5th wheel!
 
Here , is some of the other stuff I do ,repair power equipment!










Here I fixed a Briggs for a guy ,I told him to sale it in a yard sale an get a Honda!.....LOL
Briggs went down hill when they started putting plastic cam gear in their engines ,any abrupt stop or miss fire
will cause the pressed on plastic gear to break free from the shaft throwing the valve timing off on ignition!...IDIOTS!


A guy brought me this to repair ,it had bailing wire tangled up in the blades ,these mowers are for clean hybrid grasses ,not
mowing pastors fields with it!......LOL
Cleaned ,sharpen & adjusted the blade gap between the bed knife ,replaced drive chain ,an tuned it ,cleaned carb!
