Hey Hmills,

I'm down in clear lake (south of Houston) and have a couple of trucks. My 71 F100 used to be my daily driver. It is down for a new engine and trans right now. I should be starting it up in a couple of weeks. There are a couple of us in the Houston area. Welcome to the site.

welcome to the site Hmills, and please don't be afraid to sure things you think we already know about these trucks.

Howdy Austin - glad to here i'm not alone down here in Big H. I'm up in Cypress off Hwy 290 just outside Hwy 6. Sure I know Clear Lake - just south of Mickey Gilley's (well he's in Branson MO now but Pasadena's still there).

Thanks "rjewkes" - My 15 year old son and I are just learning about these sweat old trucks. Brought her home last Friday and so far we have changed a leaking fuel line, changed the oil and plugs and started cleaning her up. points and rotor are next then the tranny. Should be a good father son project.

Keep on trukin. HMills
