You can look in the gallerys here, mine (maybe not the best example) would be one their are several here. If you need some pacific picture or info just ask. Their are many tricks of the trade just keep reading, but watch the shortcuts if you make to many you will be going around in circles.

Welcome! Can you give us a bit more info/specifics, such as: where do you want to start (engine, trans, rear end, interior, body work, electrical, bed, suspension, undercarriage?) Do you intend to do a ground-up restoration? or make a street mod out of it? What mods, if any, do you intend to put on it?

We'd love to throw in some ideas/hints/suggestions, so just let us know where you want to start!

Daryl

Question ground up

I am doing a ground up restoration to make a semi-street rod. I am going to clip it Not sure which one --volarie or mustang II. I know it's a debate but which one would work out better on the 57 f-1? I would like to run a 351c with a c6. It will be lowered not sure how much yet any body got any ideas, pics of these processes. What does a clip cost to get installed. I'm not a good enough welder to tackle that job. I will switch to disk brakes in the front. Am I missing anything?
thanks,
Ryan
