No problem Aus56. I cleaned up the engine and sprayed it Ford blue. I should have took a before picture. It has some rust bubbles in the common areas on the cab and doors but other than that It has small little things that I have been fixing. I recently fixed the front passenger signal/parking light base, wiper pivots, horn, installed mirrors, changed the thermostat,valve cover gaskets, door strikers, ignition switch, dash signal sockets, driver and passenger windows, I installed a new air cleaner along with new valve cover breather caps, tuned it up, and I installed a temporary temperature gauge untill I save up enough to buy a billet gauge panel along with some gauges.

Im glad I waited I was going to buy a complete restoration 55 for $1500 then I had talked to a guy that owns a body shop in my area and he told me he knows an old man selling one. He took me to go see it and I had the money in hand and made the deal.
