Greetings from Oregon

Post by Occidental »

Howdy,

Joined up a couple days back. I've got a 1970 Ford F-250 Custom that I'm doing my best at keeping on the road.

Generally speaking I'm usually in search of advice, but I also enjoy seeing builds. I'm personally not building at this point as I use the truck for hauling stuff to and from our house and running errands on the weekends. I've also got a 1971 Austin Mini 1000 that I'm working on that gets the "enhancements", but honestly I really get a great deal of satisfaction from simply maintaining the F-250 and keeping it on the road.

Actually I don't really mind the look of them, but they're so worn out I can't even get them to stay in place long enough to drive down the road. So I plan to replace them at some point, but I haven't settled on whether I'd like to do another single-post or go with the more utilitarian 3-point mirror (I kind of dig the ones with the reflective chevrons on the back).
