Evening Oregon, It was another nice day here, if you don't count all the time I spent under the lumina taking the crankshaft sensor out piece by chunk and the new one is a little longer so now I have to find out if it work or cause more problems.
Have a safe week.

Belated good evening Oregon. Just home from an afternoon on the "mountain top" at my sisters then helping get the chores done and a horse doctored out at the farm.

Evening all.

Winding down from Easter with the kids. Pretty good day, spent a while working on the F250 for my daughter. I think it's road worthy now, but still have more work to do.

Thanks guys! I really didn't need ANOTHER project, but after seeing it I just couldn't turn it down. Harley and I are stoked to work on it, and Melody says she loves it!

It is in great shape for it's age. All new floor pans already installed, 4 brand new tires and 90% of the light bodywork already done!

If I was 20 years younger, I would start buying up all the old fords around here (and there are a ton of them!) and transport them back to the midwest/eastcoast for sale. A guy could make a fortune.............

I went all over the exterior yesterday and cannot fine any problems that aren't fixed already. I'll put a good heavy coat of primer sealer on this week to keep it from any rust problems, then install the engine we want. After we have the new engine working good we'll paint the final color on it. My 88 year old buddy will be here this summer and has agreed to do the interior for me. Eddie is a master upholsterer, and said he'll do the whole interior in LEATHER!
