Restoration Plans....
Hello:
First posting here. What do you guys think about some restoration ideas we've had for our '65 F100. #1 - Sandblasting, priming/painting and undercoating the undercarriage on our '65 F100. #2 - Spraying the bed with a epoxy coating kit, GatorGard II is the brand I've seen locally. #3 - Converting the single reservoir brake cylinder setup to a power assisted double reservoir setup. Suggestions are welcome, let me know what you've paid for these services, or what you think they are worth to have done. Many thanks.

Paul, Welcome here! I'd buy a parts truck that has the stuff you need for your truck or find a really understanding junk yard operator who will let you scrounge for all the bits and pieces you will need. I core everything that I can, (MC, Calipers, Gear, Pump). If the budget will tolerate it buy a tilt column from one of the aftermarket suppliers. Decide how you will shift the truck early in the process. Transmission and shifting (floor or column) will impact seat, steering column and transmission selection. Keep us posted.
