first 55 ford

I just made a deal on a 55 Ford truck. I got it for 500 bucks , a s10 for 100 bucks and a rear axle for 150. I picked up a code 504 kit Thursday night. Now its time to turn wrenches.

Bruce,
What's your plan? I was following your purchases until the 504 kit, what's that?

Bruce i was trying to get you into Coes so maybe we could see a tilt front end
for a 48-50 Coe come out of Terry's. Its still a good idea because maybe theres a market to turn conventional cabs into Coes if they could buy a one piece tilt.

I don't think anyone here has done the code 504 chassis swap. Cool looking kit. Please let us know how it goes.
