Smile NEW GUY

Hello every one I'm from South Carolina - I am a Navy veteran and was looking for a forum to get information on the truck I just purchased to fix up. -- I have a degree in auto diesel technology from - too far back - and am excited to re-engage my mechanic skill sets. Its been since 1987 I have working on anything other than my own vehicles , a few farm equipment items and a car / truck or 2 for few friends that needed work done.. Im excited to see what this has for me for information and connections to advise and suggestions for progressing - the truck is a 1956 - Ford F 350 not sure if it is a Y but it is a 272 - runs like a top .
very little rust and a few body parts needed or will get fabricated . Looking for ward to meeting folks and getting to work on my project -- :0)
