Welcome to the site. I'm more of a GM guy, and haven't quite been able to move to Fords yet. Just got all our FoMoCo products in my signature. Would love to see pics of those 73's. Glad you kept one with the '73 front.

Carl, some of us on here are not so closed minded and can appreciate other makes. Until about a month ago, I had a Dodge truck, a chevy truck, and a ford truck.  Some of us I guess are just smarter, lol ! (just kidding.)  Do be prepared for the ribbing though.  Great group on here though.

I saw your pics on photobucket, i LOVE starliners!

Post more pics of your rides.
