I know, I know, its not original but I wouldn't have it any other way. Picked this up the other day. I have very little experience with Fords, so I'm sure I'll need some help soon. It's very close to complete. Missing some interior pieces. I think it was close to show quality/occassional drag racer 5 yrs ago. Paint is showing some wear and tear. Motor is 347 Stroker. Running, driving, street legal.

Welcome to the "orphanage"
Looks like a fun project!
There was/is a guy who has posted in the past "Tomget" he has a white fridge he drags. Seems like he was in central Cal? Not sure just where you are but this is the right place to find info on your fridge.

Welcome for the forum and congratulations-I can dig it...an uncle had those same rims on his GTO-love em. Bet she is a little faster than my truck with the 223 and 3 on the tree!

Well, I am a stock, original type of guy but your truck is very cool. At least you are still presenting the Fridge body style! Even if it is dragging along the ground! HaHa!

Thanks for the warm welcome. Everyone has their own style, and I'm very respectful of that. My neighbor has a 49 ford, beautiful truck!

My plan is to attack this interior first. Other than lmc and npd, are their any other websites that I should check out that carry a good selection of parts for this model?

347 stroker, mustang II front end, air bag suspension, pretty certain it's got a shortened ford 9" rear. C4 trans. I haven't touched it since I pulled it in the garage a week ago. I need to finish up a few other projects before I dig in, I'd all casting #'s and make my to do list. I'm excited though.
