Well, guys..just sold the 56 F100 this morning on eBay..it's going to PA. I will be recommending the FTE forums to the purchaser as he is a relative newcomer to these trucks as I was a year and a half ago. I've learned a lot here and appreciate all the help I have received from you guys. I'll be replacing the Effie with a 2012 Vortec supercharged (grabber blue) Mustang GT and likely will not be visiting these forums much in the future. It's been a fun ride but I'm ready to move on to something a lot faster ..and with all the creature comforts. Thanks again everyone....

 

Sorry to hear you sold the '56, but you must do what's best for you. Best to you.
