79 Ford Project



Started this a year ago. When I get the other photos of when my father in law first started, I'll post them. This truck was my brother in laws, who is no longer with us, and I plan on giving this to his son when he turns 16.Until then this is my wife's truck. Engine is a 460.

Yep.... keep us updated. I worked on mine for several weeks to get it to where you are now. With some clean-up... looks like you will be soon ready to re-assemble.
