How do thought i should sign up and join in the fun

So how did i end up with an Explorer well thats a funny one with my Mits GTO off the road and moving to a city i i wanted a new toy and thought get something to help with the move so i was after a Jap wagon which i almost e bought a Galant wagon i had my heart set on a fun fast jap wagon then one day i spotted a forsale on another forum (retrorides) and it was the Explorer and soon as i spotted it i new i was having it so a deal was made and a 280 mile trip was completed i had it and wow i love it i ve had all sorts of cars but this is my propper 4x4 truck and i love it its so much fun to drive love the power and way it drives and love the way it looks. puts a smile on my face every time I drive it hell every time i look out and see it i smile.

i was well happy with the price n the deal trucks done 89K but had new engine by ford after a timing chain issue all documented so engine has done 40K had a years mot and cost me £650

So enough of me rambling have some pics .
