my '79 F-100 that I pulled my straight six from yesterday. The engine is getting EFI manifolds, Offenhauser intake, an M5OD Tranny, all seals, and a new head gasket. Anything that looks like it should be done will.

They don't look awful, I just don't understand why.

Made the topper a new lawn ornament, put in the lighted "rollbar" and took the 18.5/44-16.5 TSL's bias' off. 12.5R20 Michelin XL'. Not balanced and they actually drive ice up to about 85mph.

That's a really clean looking truck Django

Yes, the previous owner did a really nice job... Skills I don't have for sure. It needs just a few things, like the brake lights and flashers don't work, needs a hookup for the front gas tank, emergency brake cable... I will probably replace the stock headers with after market headers for a better sound... It Needs a CB radio... Oh, and I found a company that makes vintage looking in dash AM radios with modern features including bluetooth.

Sorry to hear about your dad.

That is one clean looking truck!!!

Now, for what direction... I say forward, drive that baby, remember why you have it and just think about it a bit. Driving them is good medicine.
