51 f100

I put a new master cylinder and wheel cylinders plus all new brake lines and hoses on my old project. Just had my brother run dulles and got it on the road. I have not had it long but will enjoy it greatly. It needs alittle love but I have lots of time to finish it one day.

Welcome to the board Ron; Nice truck. I like the dash looks clean and I like 2-ton. Looks great.

What engine does it have in it? Keep us posted on your progress.

Rusty it has the original flatty in it. It has 40,000 some miles on it. I am going to do a rear end swap I need more than 45mph. It has 51 f2 fenders on it but it is a 51 f1. I am in search of 51 f100 fenders, but they are hard to come by.

Looks good, I wondered what one looked like when it was put back together.

Flathead I hope.
