Welcome to FTE the best Ford Truck forum on the world wide web.

I don't have an answer to your questions but we do want to see more pics of your C600. Is that red 56 yours too?

the truck lives in phoenix az, no rust at all .. it has already had an engine upgrade. I would LOVE to upgrade to 10 hole budd hubs on the front and rear but I think that might be asking a lot more than just finding a front axle,,,,

they came from California 15 years ago, the f100 was hauled on the ramp bed of the c600 .. I am sure that was a sight to see,, I have several other hobbies,, but it looks like I am going to be a ford truck guy pretty soon,,

That just cool man. Looking forward to watching the progress. Seeing something like this on the interstate sure would make me do a double take.
