Need some work done.
My 53 F100 lives on Block Island, I live in Connecticut. As such all of my tools are about 100 miles away and I never seem to bring all the right things to work on it. I'm looking for someone in Rhode Island who can go through my OEM front end and get it squared away. If they're also up for the challenge, I have a brand new wiring harness to replace the one under the dash. Do you guys know of anyone who would be interested in doing one or the other job? I will bring it over to the mainland.

Anyone listening have a suggested engine builder in RI? I'd like to get my 53 F100 Straight 6 refreshed and a few other things straightened out?
Not looking for a beast motor, just a solid rebuild with valves, springs, seats and pistons. The truck is on Block Island and I'll bring it to them.
