    Hey guys another newbie here! As stated I'm from west Texas. I'm not new to horse power just new to custom restoration. Tinkered a lot with motors growing up and I am now trying my hand at my own custom rebuild. I have a 62 F-100 unibody that is my current project. It was my grandfathers given to my dad and is now mine. Had a lot of memories in this truck and it was killing me seeing it parked and rusting away. I took action soon as I could and it is now stripped down to nothing just about. Pulled the motor and tranny the other day plan to drop in a 351 Windsor and change the 3 on the column to a floor shift automatic and a ford 9" rear end. Gonna drop it a little give it a good hot rod stance update the brakes by adding a brake booster and add power steering and a sway bar to help out. Have been trying my hand at some body work and it is just that a lot of work. I'm sure y'all will get accustomed to me picking y'all's brains when I find myself scratching my head. The name is Reagan by the way! Here's some pics of "old blue" when we got him and during some of the tear down stage!
