Im gonna try and post a couple pics of my 62, I've had it about a year now.
On my m/c the front part of the reservoir (closest to the radiator) is for the rear brakes.
Check on the kit that CPP sells. I think they were a little less expensive than everyone else when I was looking at the disc brake kits for my 62.
Judging from what looks like the original spring pads on top of the rear end and assuming that it is truely a 6 lug (no adapters), Id guess that...
If you have one of the thick spacers under your carb, take it off and bolt the carb down without it, just use the gasket. I had this exact same...
Im no expert but i've had a couple of F1's and F2's and I'll give it a shot. The spindles on the F1 and F2 are the same so if you get some F1...
Nice lookin truck. What size tires are on it?
I have a 62 with the torsion bars, I just looked and there are no holes in mine until you get back an inch or 2 from the front crossmember.
Keep the 56 and put a bench seat in it.
I dont know how or why it works but i've seen an old timer weld up a gas tank on two diffrent occasions by filling it with diesel fuel first. I...
Trailering it to their office might be the key to getting it taken care of, i hadn't thought about that. The guy i talked to on the phone may have...
Thanks for the info, i thought it was bs when the guy said it had to be a running and driving vehicle to his satisfaction just to get a title. I...
I guess you probably could "buy" a car the same year and model as your car with a clean NC title and just use that paperwork. Still taking a...
Im in NC too, and i recently had a similar problem. I bought an old truck from out of state with a clear title, and readable vin #'s, took it down...
After i saw the skirts on that truck i started looking for some for mine too, i found some 'glass ones on e-pay item # 120555338982 the same...
Easiest and probably cheapest thing to do would be to swap rear ends. The 57-72 Ford trucks 9in rear are a bolt in, and you should be able to find...
Thanks Mailbob, its funny I was just checkin out your truck on here the other day as i was looking for some pics of lowered step sides and I was...
My junk. Just lowered it today. Before: [IMG] After: [IMG]
I just went down to the NCDMV yesterday to get the title for my 50 ford truck transferred to my name using the clear SC title that i bought it...
The shoes, wheel cylinders, bearings and seals are the same from 48-56. I think the drums from 48-52 and 53-56 are a little diffrent though, they...
I remember that Street Rodder too, i rode it around in my work truck for years and read it whenever i was on lunch or taking a break, i probably...
I have a 50 F2 that id like to make into a shortbed also. Are you going to use the bed from a 1/2 ton or modify the F2 bed?
