Hi guys I not long brought a 51 F1 out of San Antonio Texas which is now located down here in Melbourne Australia. I was told that the truck was once a push truck at the San Antonio drags. Since then it has sat in a barn for many years until the guy I got it from put it back on the road. I will be putting my own spin on the truck. If I ever work out how to up load pics I will let you guys check it out and would love your opinion. FNJUNK
Those pics where takin in Texas now she's in Australia and I have started doing some work to her. Posted from the TJJ App for iPhone & iPad
I have painted the chassis and the firewall and inner guards. Going to paint and detail the 59AB, gear box , diff and all the brakes have been blasted and painted satin black also. Will paint the in side of the cabin and tidy it up with fatmat. I have sent the I Beam away to be stretched a couple of inches and have already halved the leafs in the spring packs witch are painted an waiting for new bushes. I hope to put it back together and drive the wheels off it! Will try to keep you guys posted. I was told this was a push truck from San Antonio drags do any of you guys know of or how I can find out more about its history? She was in this barn for 40years.

The door art is why I brought her so it definitely won't be removed! Cheers Posted from the TJJ App for iPhone & iPad

Thanks for asking Oldiron73. Been a little slack have fitted the cab out with Fatmat and just about ready to paint the inside of the cab. Need to wire her and fit a windscreen. And hopefully she'll be back on the road fingers crossed. Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
