Ranchero Neubee

Just thought I would say Hi. I'm the new owner of my Dad's 1961 Ford Ranchero. It's pretty much original except for the wheels and the seat. It has the original inline six and "three on the tree". Took me a few shifts getting used to a column shift and having to double clutch but I'm getting better at it. I'm hoping to fix it up for a weekend driver and local car shows. So I hope you guys won't mind me asking questions from time to time since I'm pretty new to the classic car thing.
