Project Faded Glory
I worked on this truck back in 2009 and built a new 351w for it but unfortunately my
friend got hurt and the truck was only driven 200 miles in 9 years. I got the truck back
from him to fix hoping it could be saved but the lifters are shot plus with no air cleaner
there is some water damage.

I was able to buy the truck and am excited about bringing her back

1967 f100 ranger
Originally blue/white 352/Cruise o matic
351w/C6/3.25 9 inch

The body and the trim look in good shape. Nice that you got it and plan on fixing it all back.

I don't think you'll need to clean that carb now. What a waste of a good carb, too bad. But at least, you won't have carb issues with the new one installed!

People who have no respect for a vehicle do the most damage to it.
For sitting all that time the body looks great.
