Rust Bucket Rembrandts

I usually hang out on the 48-56 forum but I want to post this here. I think you guys will like this.

I found a website called Rust Bucket Rembrandts found at: https://www.rustbucketrembrandts.com/

Its a pretty cool site. There's a story about an 81 year old man that owns a 58 F100 he bought when he as 34. He was trying to sell it because he can't drive it anymore due to failing eyesight. Eric, the creator of Rust Bucket, got some volunteers to fix up Old Blue to help him sell it easier. One company that donated the not reproduced hood side emblems was our own Chuck Mantigula of Chucks Trucks of CT. Chuck frequents our 48-56 forum.

Check it out.

Here is Mel and his 58:

Someone posted the story of old blue before but that is pretty cool to hear how a FTE'er came through with the hood emblems. Interesting. Way to go Chuck Mantigula!
