Hello from UK

Hi all,
I live in the south of England and bought a '56 F100 from S Africa with the steering on the right side. It was in very good condition but it was still a truck to drive. Strip to the chassis and fit the front member from a Jaguar xj saloon to give coil fron discs and power steering. Worn out 351W was purchased and is now fully built up with all new parts and Edlebrock manifold and 600 carb.
Rebuil C4 with new torque converter and mustang back end.
Just needs all putting back together and painting and trimming.
I would like a set of F150 SVT Lightning seats for it!!!!!!!!!

Place an ad in our Classifieds and maybe put a short note in the International Chapter forum, for those seats. Good luck. Hey....some pictures of that 56 in your gallery would be really cool. I don't believe I have ever seen a truck that old with right hand steering, so it would be really interesting.

Please read the forum guidelines and the READ FIRST notes. They will be a tremendous help in finding any info you need. Welcome to FTE!
