Well I went down south and picked up my 53, The guy that had it has too much going on. A great guy just busy working on other projects that pay more than a buddy deal. I have not seen my old truck in over a year. I was expecting the worst but after seeing it and getting it home, I think I can get it going one of these day's. Looks like I will be boxing the frame pretty soon! I will post pictures soon.

 

Sounds good, I'm glad you haven't given up on it yet.

 

I almost did, I got a few pict's that I will post this evening. I finaly found and bought a real torch/gauge's. going to get some bottles in the next day or two.Now I need to find a place between Memphis and Hernando to buy the material to box the frame.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Well there it is, does not look like I will run out of things to do for a few of years!

 

Just think how sweet that baby's going to be when you get it back on the road.

 

I cant wait, Its killin me now that I see it every day. Before when it was five hours away I only thought about it about once a month. Now I got to get that 04 F150 running and sold.....out with the new and in with the old! need the shop cleared out for it.

 

Looks pretty solid. Might as well do a frame off...I guess you are if you're going to box the frame..Duh!

 

yea....no choice.lol Its not as solid as is once was but I will have plenty of time to find new running boards and such while working on getting it to a roller.
