Well Shane, it looks good. I'm hoping (someday) to get my 56 to the point where I can show some nice sheet metal too!

Good lookin' 56! I viewed the pix plus the six jpeg's. Are those the "new" pix you're talking about? And how did us Californians let a nice 56 escape to Oregon??? Just kidding, I'm sure it's much happier there (clean air) than in Ca. Let me know if I missed the latest pix; the ones I viewed were dated '01.
Thanks for the pix,
Daryl

Thanks George!
Well Daryl, Not only did I take it from my old homeland I also stole it! My uncle had been sitting on this truck since 1986. He stopped driving it because the clutch went out. He purchased a new Monte Carlo, Not sure what the heck he was thinking? My father and I had begged him for years to sell it to us but he would just not give. Late 2001 shortly after my Dad past away (His brother) I was sold the truck for a whole dollar! I wonder if he felt a little guilty. The only catch is that I give him a ride when it's finished.

Shane and Daryl
Both of you have very nices rides. The two best colors for a custom effie in my book. I also happen to like black, white, blue and certain shades of green. And orange, maroon, or even primer ain't half bad either. Maybe I just like old Ford trucks.

Nice truck, Shane. Just what spurred me to write about Abe's pics... and how I am looking at the future for my '54. Says hotrod without screaming it. Like 'fenders, I enjoy the spectrum of colors that look good on trucks... but am always pleased to see something a little different. Best. himmelberg

Shane, cool truck. I always liked yellow, too.
Hey, you need to add some description to these pics (for example describing the mods we see like wheel make, size, tire size, etc.).
Greetings from Germany !!!
(... and all this reminds me that I need to clean up my gallery sometime soon, too)
