1955 F-100: Progress *pics* :)

Yay! I am almost ready for the motor, I will be going to pull the engine/trans from the donor truck on tuesday. The mustang II front suspension is in completely now. It needs to be aligned, but that can wait until the engine is in.

Here are transitional pictures:

Tuesday I will get the engine/transmission mocked up and weld in the mounts. From there its a matter of wiring, and plumbing the brakes

And finally Painted:

VERY nice. Soon I will be able to go in the garage and work. The heat out here has put a hold on things for a couple of months.

Nice progress, and thanks for the pics!

Looking good. Keep at it. Your garage looks a bit small in the pics?

I appoligize if you mentioned it earlier and I missed it but what engine trans combo is going in your project?

On a side note I wanted to say how nice your work looks. And then to add in that you are doing this in an apt complex garage (which I KNOW how small those are) is truely awesome. Its looking real good keep it up! Keep the pics coming.
