New guy Intruduction

Just wanted to introduce myself to everyone. Name is Tony and i am not new to building cars and trucks but fairly new to Fords. Built my first 55 F-100 a little bit over a year ago for a client and currently building two more trucks. First one is a 53 F-100 and the second is a 79 f-100
