I was wondering if you were still interested. I was over working on the 56 the other day and moving it around so I know its still there just waiting for you!

OK Boys and Girl - Brought the 56 home today and put it in the garage and have one picture to share -
The Work Horse and the Hot Rod.
Moved the Vette to the Warehouse for storage and moved the 56 home so I can work on it. I now have 2 fords living at my home and one GM. So will probably sleep better tonight!
Started stripping everything out of the cab today so its ready for the body shop and media blasting. I will post more photos later.

Got Blue cleaned out yesterday and took her for a spin. Of course, I had to blow the cobs out of it!!! Poor thing hadn't been run hard since I went back to school last fall.
My guess is I run a 14.6 @ 90 mph in the quarter.
I need to wash it to get all the dust off from sitting all winter. I'm thinking I'll change my seat here before too long. That extra bench seat I have is starting to be used as a storage shelf in the shop!!!

Listen, it's not my fault. During the winter it becomes used as a storage area. I spent 15 minutes cleaning other people's crap out of the box just so I could drive it. This is the last winter that it will happen though. Hopefully by next winter I can start on body work, and after that it probably won't sit in dad's shop for extended periods of time.

Okay Jake. I will. I did pull the 67 out of the trees at the farm. Otherwise, I won't be able to get to it when the crop is in. Right Rear brake locked up on me, so just had to drag it along.
