Got my next Project today

I finally talked my work partner into selling me his 54 f-100 today. I've been after him about it for about a yr. I think I got it at a steal. It has no rust through except on the back fenders where the running boards bolts are. I'll get pics as soon as we drag it out from behind the junk. He has a 54 panel that I'd sure like to get to, maybe later on.

Well Rusty, now you can put a Jag IFS in a F100 frame. A little more work but not all that bad.

Rusty,

Woohooo!!! Sounds like fun!

I recently aquired a 1967 Jeepster Commando from a buddy. I've been haggling with him for about 15 years trying to buy it. Then he gave it to me. Now I'm haggling with him trying to pay him.....its a funny world

Bobby

Congrats, Rusty. That is cool.

I thought the title of your thread was about rebuilding a 86 XJ6 Jaguar that only needs front and rear suspension!

I tried to make a new gallery but all it will do is go back to the new gallery page and everything is blank.
