Howdy, I'm still around and I have a new project

Hey guys, sorry I've been gone for so long. I'm still working on old Ford trucks and I have a new project. It is my buddy's old '54 F100. He's owned it for 35 years. He's the one who got me more hooked on F100's. I've not got any pictures of his truck project yet but I am completely into it. I have the body off the frame and getting ready to paint the frame. He has a '91 Corvette 350 and 7000R4 in it with tons of new parts. It has a '71 Camaro front subframe in it. I'll try to get some pictures on. Anyway I'll keep you posted.

I often wondered what happened to you as well as some of the other older members that don't show up as often. Good to see you posting again.

Thanks guys for all the kind comments. Our computer died and I have been working in the garage more. I'll have to get my wonderful wife to put pictures on for me. I'm more of a techtard than I was. I'm actually using a scanner for vehicle diagnosis that is able to get online. Its kind of like driving a riding mower on the interstate ( SLOW ). Later guys

Hey - Glad to see you are back, I remember you're posts from a years back and have recently wondered what happened to you. I also took a distant break only because my interests led my in a different direction for a while. I purchased a 1951 F1 in December of 2014 and that brought me back. I had to get the Mod's to activate my account again, I was gone so long.

If I remember correctly your truck was Peggy Sue ???? am I correct ? and whats is status now ?

Homade is doing OK, he was down here last week. We did a seat for him and have another one to do for him now. And what's up with the "older guys" comment?
