Well got the rear painted today and the front de-greased and ready. Will be painted tomorrow. Got dad's door painted so it won't rust until we can get his truck torn down next winter. Going to go hit the junkyards tomorrow to see what we can find.

Have a great weekend all!
Lucky you, it has been the mid 30's sometimes low 20's here. Got down to low 10's last night in Snowlfake Ariona. Been getting lots of snow so much we can't work on our trucks. I am glad I am not in the Valley (pheonix) during the summer though. Highest we get in the summer is 90.

That's one clean 70's Ford. A Junk yard is a man's best friend next to his truck and dog.

It's just rattle can. It looks like crap if I had better pics. So many dents and problem areas but that's for a later date. It is shiny though.

It just means it is a project. When your done with it you won't even care it was a ratle can. You kidding me I live on a dirt road and my dad's 1986 F150 was rattling like crazy fixed it and two years later and the truck is rattling again. The only truck we have that don't run is our super duty yet that is only had it since August of last year not to mention we are getting another truck for my mom more then likely an Explorer or Sport trac. Which reminds me how many of you guys have been to Show Low Ford (it's a delarship)?

Problem is we need to get her a car that is relibale plus something a bit better on gas then the other cars and we can't afford anything but payments so we have to go to a delarship. Plus nobody has what we want other then one delarship in Show Low so we are checking them out. Plus I know delarships are to much it took me 6 hours to get a resonable trade in for our last 2002 F250 to get into our current 2002 F250. All of our other vehicles are bought privately except they were only ranging from 100 to 2000 dollars which we got before the house fire and economy drop.
