New 1986 F150 owner and forum member

Hello!

I’m the new owner of a 1986 F150. It’s the 5.0 EFI, 2WD 4-speed. Story goes it was a dealer owned shop truck, then sold to a guy who owned it up until 2017 when his daughter sold it to my buddy. My friend put about 1k miles on it before deciding he needed a 4wd. I just brought it home this weekend. Looking forward to the community!

Welcome! Glad you joined.

How 'bout placing the pic on here so's people can see it w/o clicking. See the how-to at Bullnose Forum/Forum FAQ's for how to do that, but I'll do it below.

Where's home? I ask because we have a map (Bullnose Forum/Member's Map in the menu) and we could add you with a city/state or zip.

Lower, slower Delaware! Been there many times, some of which was to the speedway, some to visit friends that lived there.

We used to live near Hockessin as I worked for DuPont at the time.

Anyway, you are on the map.

Good looking truck. Seem to be a lot of Bullnoses out there in pretty good shape. Not around here though. Mine's one of the best I've seen locally and it's no queen. Yours looks GREAT!

Thanks for all the compliments, it’s got a few dents and dings but overall in pretty good shape.

Glad to hear someone else knows about lower, slower!

This is a very very belated welcome. I used to be over in Northern VA, now located in Milton DE. So not far away at all! The idea of having another bullnoser nearby is awesome!

Cheers!
