Will Bob had me call some guys that had parts and chassis on line and we stopped at one place and I ended up know the guy. He was a friend of my sons from back in third grade. (Small world) Bob ended up getting a nice grill for the F1 and some other goodies too.
The kid was into late 70's ford trucks and had three there and a old parts truck???? We started talking about engines and he had a 391 fe in the parts truck. Score!!!!
I m going back in two weeks to pick it up for my 56f600 he lives about a hour away!
Now we are headed up to a marina North of me to look at a1950 f2 .
And Wednesday i m going to go look at Duane's old chassis he sold to a guy in rockford. Bob would like it for his project .

Maybe you guys should keep buying old trucks and parts and then sell them at Carlisle.

Barn? - I'll bet he's been religated to one of those calf huts out back if not one of those hay tubes
