I have always lived in a Ford family. growing up my dad had a ford truck. This truck stayed with us for so many years. Everytime something happened, my dad would pop the hood whever he was at. It would take one look, and one turn of the key to figure out exactly what was wrong with it. My dad has never put a vehicle in the shop. Anything that went wrong my dad could fix it, with no motor hoist, and with no special tools. More than once he didn't have the right part, but was able to fix it with something he had laying around. THAT is the advantage to old, 70's ford trucks.
What do you love about them?
