Just Joined! wanted to say Hello

Hi everyone!

I've been checking in on this site ever since I got my OBS and finally decided to make an account. I got my truck when I turned 16, I'm 18 now, and it has a fair bit of family History.
My truck started out as a near base model 1995 Cheyenne single cab short box, 4.3l automatic Truck. My dad Drove the truck as a commute truck to and from work for a long time and eventually the 4.3 was replaced with a 5.7 and 4l60E, when the 4.3 gave up the fight. At some point they lowered the truck as well. Eventually my uncle acquired the truck and when I got close to turning 16 He decided that since the truck had been my Dads to give it to me when I started driving since it had just been sitting a fair amount since he had gotten it. I first drove this truck when I was probably 5 sitting in my dads lap going down our long driveway. I've still got a lot of plans for the truck so far the changes have been mostly cosmetic. I just ordered some 18's for the truck to replace the wheels they put on it when they lowered it that i was never very fond of. Pretty soon it will be looking sharp. maybe eventually I'll get around to getting a little more motivation than 195 hp under the hood haha.
I'm excited to be a part of the forums, and will try and post any progress on here, although I post pictures on Instagram more often than not

Here's some pictures of my truck

Thanks! I have another Ford project(1971 Maverick) and an Jeep project(63 CJ5) as well.... but I don't know that many on this forum will be very welcoming towards my blue oval products haha. The courier is a fun truck, especially because every time I drive it I get told its been 20 years since someone has seen one

Yeah, I ain't brand specific. Cool is Cool. For toys or projects, I have a '63.5 Falcon, a '74 Bronco, a '56 Ford F100, '68 C10, '67 C30, B8 A4 Avant and a E30 M3.

I'd love to see the Mav too.
