I lived in Winchester for 33 years, have a home in Somerset where I was born. Currently in Syracuse,NY with too much snow. My 54 is in a heated garage in Somerset needing lots of work. Good luck to theKY guys.

This is where I am now.
This is where I am on the 53 F-100:
I hate painting a frame. Just when you think every little hole is painted, you see bare metal somewhere else.
I actually started to put down the black paint, but had the gun adjusted wrong. (this is my first time with a HVLP gun) I had too much paint and got some orange peal right out of the gate. I just need to sand a cross member and start over. Live and learn.

I'm needing a '53 to '55 driver door in Kentucky if anyone has one, let me know. Thanks in advance...fellow Kentucky Ford owners!! Also a bench seat for a '53 to '55 F100, and a radiator for a '54 F100 with a 239 OHV Y-block. Don't want much....do I?

Hey guys! Not to hijack this thread, but this is the most ky guys I've seen post in a thread. Ky does have a chapter on FTE. It is lacking in members, so, if/when you guys get a chance, you could post up in the latest B.S. thread. I'm from Camp Springs, Melbourne, Alexandria area, about 15 miles southeast from Cincinnati.

Latest progress
It has taken a while, but the 53 is finally sitting back on all four tires. I'm in the process of putting all the little pieces back on, then I'll set the engine back in place.
