That's a great looking
f-1. Don't worry about eleven years, I took longer than that on my '55.

Man, that is a great looking truck.

But you have to set some mouse traps in that garage!

The little buggers chewed away your hood, headlight and one wheel already. Maybe get a cat or two to slow down the losses?

That is one "Bee-uu-tt-full" F-1. Look's fresh inside and out. It makes my eyes happy just looking to at it.

It takes awhile for most of us [at least me] to make one look that good.

To Skip1970,

The brand name of the paint is DELTRON (PPG)

This color was chosen by my ace assistant (my wife).
