iv been spending my time in the other part of the forum because of my 96 f150, but i finally got pictures of my dads old 75 f100 custom that he gave to me a year ago, after 35 years of work, its bruised and beaten, but still runs like the day it came off the lot. i plan on restoring it this coming spring since i just sold my ram 2500 and have some spending money

here she is.

Default My Old Fords

The first is my 1956 that I've had since 1987 (1st vehicle at age 15). It is currently under major restomod construction and has sort of been on hold due to family, job, life, etc...

Default My Old Fords

This is my 1969 2WD SWB 390FE/C6, Trac-Loc 4.10 geared Dana 60. I have rebuilt this truck nearly from the ground up too but it is my beater low budget hot rod that I built almost entirely of wrecking yard parts. The cab in the first photo no longer exists as it had almost NO floor and had to be put out of its misery...

The night I brought it home:

Default My Old Fords

Sorry...just a few more!

Out with the drums...



In with the discs on '75 spindles and dropped I-beams...



I bent up all new hard lines and used the booster, prop valve, and pedal assembly from the '75 (M/C is new '75)...



New 40 series Flowmasters and 4" stainless balony cut tips...






New headers, Edelbrock RPM intake and carb, plugs, wires, electronic ignition...looking much better!

All you guys, your work is so good to see, It makes me happy to see these old trucks come to life again especially with your own custom touches. Keep up the good work & keep posting the pictures.
