Dusting it off !!!

Pulled it out of the garage today...I can’t believe it started right up after I parked it in the garage in the middle of August last summer I got hurt at work and was laid up and never did anything to it for the winter.

Looks nice! You don't see many F100 flatbeds. Was it originally a flatbed?

Must have been a good feeling hearing it come to life. I'd put some fresh gas in it and run it.

I hope you recovered totally from your work accident.

Are those flares under the bed on the passenger side?

No it started out life as a 118 WB pickup

I put 10 gallons of premium in it tonight...@ 3.89 a gallon

I hope you recovered totally from your work accident.

Not yet 5 broken ribs...3 are displaced and have not started to heal...the accident was 6 months ago.

Yes ...smudge pots. Not really correct for the era but a freind gave them to me. They came off a circus wagon...his father was a advance man for the circus and landed up with them when the circus folded.
