I have been lurking on the forum for a long time guys. I have been a member for a long time as well. But I joined because of my 7.3 F250. Don't hold it against me, but I've been driving a super nice 71 chevy cheyenne swb for years as my daily driver. BUT... I finally found a 56 big window that I could afford. It has an 86 mustang 5.0 HO motor and AOD tranny. It does have a 78 camaro clip already, which isn't my choice but i can live with it. And the clip was done right which helps a lot. Anyway, this is my new daily driver!!! Its not perfect, but its mine and will be til I can't drive anymore.

 

Very cool; drive the wheels off, then put 'em back on and drive it some more!

 

it is really cool when you fnd it. Welcome to FTE as an OWNER.

Good you stopped by again. Nice truck. chuck

 

Thanks guys. I said good bye to the 67-72 forum guys, so I figured it was time to say hello to y'all. It worked out real well that I found the truck a few days prior to Pate swap meet because the 71 chevy sold fast!

 

That's a pretty awesome piece for a "first try", I wish that my 1st 56 was that nice, GOOD SCORE!

 

That's a great looking '56! Congrats on the score!

 

Congrats on the buy. Post more pics when you can. Looks like a nice unit

 

Nice score!

 

Welcome, very nice 56.
You said something about the Pate swap. Are you from the Dallas area?

Nice ride enjoy it

 

Nice truck

 

Very nice truck. I'm glad to see that it will be a daily driver. That beauty needs to be seen.
Would love to see some more pictures.
