Hey Bill, welcome aboard! This is the best collection of information, comments, opinions, expertise, smart-*** comments, and once-in-a-great-while humor about these old Ford trucks. A great family atmosphere and a great bunch of folks.

I see you're well along on your project and it looks great. Being a stocker, I'm not up on all the modifications you've been doing, but some of the darksiders (hot rod) guys and gals will be along with lots of comments.

I realize you already have a web page set up with some photos, but consider setting up a gallery here on FTE. You'll have a lot of exposure and it's easier for other FTE members who need a little help navigating the Internet.

Have fun, ask questions, be prepared for a little good-natured ribbing, and welcome.

Hey, Bill -

Cool truck. You've made a lot of headway in 8 months! Looks like a great project.

Welcome to FTE!

4speed,
You lost me with the "Hamb"

I live between Aultman Hospital and Canton Centre Mall. Heck stop down
sometime!

Thanks for the comments! The good and the bad which are yet to come I'm sure.

Later,Bill

I've never heard that one , but I like it. Be careful though 'cause the weather changes every 15 minutes.

Forget that I even mentioned the hamb, my memory is just getting to me.

Which ride do you take to the local shows? I'll keep an eye out for you. -4speed

Right now the only other old car I have is my '66 Nova wagon. I will be in Columbus @ Goodguys in July too. I need to make up to Winks this year too.
