69 F100 Mod advice
I have a 1969 f100 sport custom that I am starting to restore. The truck has been in the family since new. It has 302 ci and 3 speed on column,manual drum brakes, manual steering. I have the front suspension from a crown vic that I am planning to put in it and would also like to put a 5 speed trans and fuel injected 4.6. My dilemma is that the truck is all original right now and I wonder if I will be messing up my modding it. I want to be able to drive the truck a lot and it will never be for sale but I also can't decide if I am ruining the truck by not putting it back stock. Any advice or opinion would be appreciated.

Build it the way you want it and drive the snot out of it. I'm doing nearly the same thing to my 67 but using a Mustang 5.0 instead.
I have a spare Tremec 5 speed if you need it.
