Just introducing my self
Name is Jim Hovind
Live near Elk River , Minnesota
building an 1954 F100 custom
running gear is about done
Lowered 3" front and rear by monoleaf springs
300 ford 6 with new process 4 speed behind it
ford 9" with posi and a 3 to 1 rear gears ( tranny has granny low )
The 6 has an rv cam, 4 barrel carb, Split cast exaust, 2" exaust ending into 3" x 1/8" wall tubing echo cans ( should have a deep rumble.)
I am now doing the metal work on the body, welding and leading the seams, 174 louvers in the hood, and heading for a late fiftys homebuilt custom.
Other than Machineshop word and the interior I am doing all of the work my self
Hope fully this allow me to hang out here ???
