Sorry, I didn't notice that. I did, however, take note of all the Chevy signs on your shop wall! No worries, I've owned more Chevs than Fords.

 

Good looking work. Keep it coming!

 

thanks guys, FYI B.C. those chevy signs are hung in my father in laws shop that I used for awhile my truck is now safe at home in a Ford enviroment !!!

 

Looks good. My truck was left to me by my grandad upon his passing and I plan on getting it up and running in his memory. Best of luck.

 

heres my 429 fresh from the machine shop bored .30 over stock cam, stock crankshaft, stock heads, it will be receiving a new edelbrock intake as well as a new Holley carb and some sweet chrome accessories hope you enjoy

 

good looking engine but every time I look at it I hear "gallon of gas, gallon of gas, hehehe

 

Nice Work! Not Professional? I'll take that kind of "Not Professional" Any day of the week!
And great price on the motor! Leave some gas at the pump for the rest of us though...
I think your Dad would be proud!
Keep at it!

 

subscribed. looking good.

 

Am in the middle of purchasing my 55' F100 and looking at your project/pictures is giving me the hope/motivation that the end results will turn out well. Thanks...

 

May not be a "professional" but you obviously have fabrication skills and done this before! Nice clean job.
I guess it's in you FIL shop, but I like the raised top work bench with the cubbie holes filled with organizer drawers.

 

I'm liking your resto/custom build. you def. have skills and I do like the buckets. Later.

 

You guys are all too kind thanks for the compliments, just piecing my engine together for the next few months and then its off to the driveline shop and the blaster to get the frame squared away so I can paint it in my driveway !!! hopefully by March here are some more pics of the new distributor, wires, water pump and harmonic balancer not much but I know how much fun pictures are hahaha merry christmas -Brian

 

Wjere can I finda non pro firend like you !!! Great job Pop's must be having a ball looking down on you.

 

Any updates?

 

Hey guys its been a while but piecing this engine together isn't cheap and its not even done yet!, as of now i'm almost done with the engine, picked up a rebuilt tranny, and one of my long lost buddies of mine is helping me with sheet metal welding and geometry for smoothing out the firewall we've come a long way from painting my first truck in my moms garage in high school we got overspray all over the washer and dryer we shouldve put some ghost flames on them ;-) anyways heres some pics enjoy...
