Guys,

Was actively reading this board couple of years back (when all the messages were e-mailed to you). Boy the site and these boards have changed a bunch and they sure look GREAT!! My kudoes to Ken!!! ...at any rate I owe you all a great big Thanks for all the advice and encouragement I received when doing this re-vitalization.

Two toddlers can keep you pretty busy as a good number of you already know. At any rate, just getting back into the BB and thought I'd put up some shots of how the truck came out in the gallery.

Thanks again!!

Jim,
Checked out your gallery. You did a great job!!
Makes me jealous, I have a '65 F-100 Custom Cab 6'bed 352 w 3 on the tree.
Older re-paint on the original turqoise and white color.
Ran an older hard side overhead camper on it for a few years in the early 90's. Parked it and eventually it turned into a "driveway Budda". Started to get interested in getting it back into shape a few months ago. Sold the camper and started to drive it again, I had forgotten how much fun it was to drive the old thing! But not driving it for 6 years had taken its toll, brakes, hoses etc.
Just finished up the brakes and am starting on replacing the shift lever collar.
Wish I could paint and save the money but no can do. But i've found a shop I think can do a nice job on the paint.
Might borrow my friends digital camera and take some "before" pictures and post my own gallery if I can figure out how to do it.
Its saturday morning and I cant wait to get out and start workin'on that great old truck!!!
