[ATTACH] My only requirement when we bought our house last year was at least a 3 car garage and room for a future detached.
Thanks for the encouragement, I need it. I have pretty much everything sitting in my garage...just need to put the time into it. Love your truck...
[ATTACH] I'll admit it's not running and one day I'd like for it to shine...but for now it's au natural. Hoping to log some miles sometime this year.
It seriously drives me nuts. They say it was for a better turning radius...but that's crazy even if it's true!
I bought new springs with the pin already moved forward. But you can remove the springs, disassemble the spring pack (be careful) and re drill the...
[ATTACH] 3" drop axle (Nostalgia Sid) and "down and forward" reverse eye springs from mid fifty. Not sure what stance you're going for, but a...
My '65. Still running the 240 I6 and 3 on the tree. I'm currently in the middle of putting a new floor in it using hickory. [IMG] [IMG]...
Woah, congrats! I look forward to seeing that one around soon enough...
Sweet truck. I am doing most of the mods you are planning on my '56 as well. I have a 3" drop axle from Sid, "down and forward" springs from mid...
The work in progress...reverse eye springs up front and a 3" Nostalgia Sid drop axle. No motor or transmission in yet. <a...
I vote no. Not on a '56. Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
Definitely a lock pin back there. Also, I would ask questions about your f-1 at the fte website...more info and almost never anybody that's rude....
Not sure about the specifics but there was actually a new "bolt in" booster/master for 57-66 ford trucks mentioned in Classic Trucks this month....
Thanks! It gives me something to spend money on:) Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
[ATTACH] Work in progress. One day... drop axle, powers discs up front, booster under cab, down and forward springs up front, short and smooth...
Haha, yep. I grabbed a bunch of random stuff from that barn when I hauled the truck out...with the seller's permission of course!
Collecting parts and saving $$ to work on my '56 now... [IMG][/IMG]
My '65 F100. Looking close to how grandaddy gave it to me...minus the sweet spray painted wheels and moon hubcaps...haha [IMG]
I felt that way when I finally found my '56 F100...it was hit in the front and parked in the barn since the late 70's. Not complete...but from...
Thanks for the welcome! Also, I know you're right in a lot of what you're saying, I appreciate it! Right now...I have to study and take the bar,...
Just wanted to introduce myself. I live in TN and just graduated from law school. It was/is the worst profession...but I am suffering through it...
Thanks!
He did, they are on page 88..the "older pics" are right below his post with the "new pics." It's a great looking truck with both wheel/tire combos!
[IMG] '65 F100 with a 240 and 3 speed manual. It's my daily driver for now.
Thanks! It has spent most of its life in and around Georgia....as far as I know. Luckily it hasn't been worked to death, and for the past 20...
