Projects LAZY V8s 60' F1OO!!! ---------

i bought this 60 f100 big window custom cab about a year ago and have slowly been working at it.. just wanted a sano driver to bomb around town instead of taking my coupe everywhere.. so here are some pics of parts of the process.
started tearing it apart, found a bad cab corner but that was it as far as rust..very solid truck.
