I'd like to say great site!I am new here but not new to old Ford's...
My pops used have a 55 with a 396(Ya I Know)and a 9".In highschool I had a 64 merc,67 4x4 and a 66 shorty which we transplanted a 69'mark III 460 into.Dad sold the 55 and I've been looking for a replacement ever since.I have brought a couple 56's home,both big trucks but it's a start.My plan is to build myself welding rig.Something I can use while working close to home.While working on this hopefully I will come across a decent 1/2 ton to make a nice driver out of using that ol Lincoln 460. Where did 53-56's all go?
Although nowhere near finished I have a 32 tudor with that same 396,a 4 sp and a 9".I found a really nice 32 cab before Christmas with plans of a flatty powered rod. Also I managed to find a 40 pu.I got lot's on the plate but there's lot's of time.There's a couple pics in my profile,can't seem to load here.

Nice to see you are into the 53-56`s, I`m wondering where they all went too as lately I`ve been looking for another one myself. I have a 53 M100, it`s a restomod/302/C4/80 Mercury car front clip, under construction, also my 56 M100 stocker is awaiting new paint. I have a 56 F350 dually, a 1971 F350 dually plus afew 53 and 69 F100 parts trucks too.

Hello
I have requested to join the Manitoba/Saskatchewan Chapter. I live in Regina and grew up in Rosetown Sk. My dad had an I old 52 Ford 3 ton on the farm, he let me learn how to drive a grain truck with. I remember the 239 flathead didn't have a lot of torque and double clutching the sliding gear 4 speed. It had a vacuum actuated rear differential. During harvest some 35 plus years ago I was fuelling the truck with gas and it began making a ticking noise and then stalled. After harvest was over I took the motor a part to find a valve seat stuck in top of a broken piston. I went into Saskatoon, got new parts at Continental engine rebuilders, I think. This was my first motor repair.
I am looking for a 51-52 1/2 ton in driving condition. I don't have time to do a frame up restoration, but I can address most mechanical repairs. I look forward to meeting others in Saskatchewan, with similar interests. I grew up with Ford trucks and John Deere tractors.
