greetings!
Just joined this morning, hoping to find some info for my newest toy/headache/project! My dad just gave me his 1941 Ford Pickup, it has a 50 flathead in it. Any advice would be appreciated!

There's a member here on FTE who is THE guru for your truck, and he lives within spittin' distance of you! I'll dig up his user name, and will post it here.

You will soon discover that your Ford pickup will come in very handy when cruisin' around on trash day, lookin' for goodies! I did that at 7AM this mornin.'
It was just like that old western actor today...Slim Pickens.

Number - the problem is the more stuff I but that goes in the house the more cleaning I have to do...so far I have limited my collections to outside stuff...hot rods and lawn flamingos!
arctic - I can get into my control panel, I am about a dozen posts away from getting a signature! Why I want one so bad I am not sure, but I do! I'll have 25 done by the end of the night!
