I will be doing a frame off restoration on this truck starting next year after I get my shop built. I will be finding parts for it and planning my build. Thanks for checking it out.

Looks like you've got a nice solid truck there! Should be a great truck for a restoration.

Is that a 67 Galaxie or Fairlane front clip I see on the back of the truck in the one picture?

I use to have a 67 Galaxie. I thought that Front clip looked kind of familiar.




What's your plans for the box/bed of the truck? Are you going with a steel dump truck box on it? Or sticking with a flatbed?

That's a nice color combination. My dad's first truck was a 40 Ford that was red with black fenders & running boards.

That grille guard on the 56 looks more like an import killer!! I like it.
