Go Back

This really sharp 1956 F100 belongs to Tom Wenhold (TOMW56prodigy.net).

I've had the truck since 1985 and drove it till 1991. The reason I stopped driving it was because my wife and I went to Pidgin Forge to see the F-100 show(WOW) and that's what got the ball rolling.

In the spring of 92 I had the truck professionally reassembled, as seen in the picture, by O'Donnell brothers of Easton Pa. they did 90% of the work. This was a complete frame off restoration.
