This is a pic of my newest project, put the doors back on so I can round the door corners and complete the body work.[/QUOTE]

Would you please take some pictures of what you do to round the corners. I'm thinking that would be a nice modification for one of my 56s.

 

I have been taking pics as I go and will add them to my gallery.

 

Current condition of my F100.....at 72 years young, this is likely my last
truck project. Little trouble with the pic's. I'll try again.

 

cannot get pic's to load.

 

Very Cool to be kicking ole iron's wheels at 72. Now maybe it's time to just keep driven em.

 

Bought this 56 with a painted 53 grille. bought a chrome 56 grille and the next day saw a chrome 53 grille on this forum that I liked as well. Ran into problems installing the 56 grille and ended up with this. I personally like the bug eyed look. Still doesn't have engine or trans. I could have almost bought one or the other for the money I spent on this grille. I know it's kind of backwards but it keeps the neighbors happy.

 

It looks pretty good from here, nice

 

I don't what to highjack this thread so I sent you a link to my Photobucket Library with pictures of the hood hardware.
