Another new guy

I have been a Ford truck fan since I was a child. I remember my grandfather's '53 F350 stakebed, and also remember when Dad got his new '56 F500 dump truck. Dad taught me to drive on that one. That was a long time ago. More recently (1993) I acquired my dad's '56 F100. He picked it up in the early 70's, I hauled it to Florida from Missouri, in 1993 behind my '79 F100. (that's a whole 'nother story.) I pulled it out from behind my garage a year ago, and have been working on it a little at a time.
