Talking Hello Ford enthusiasts!

I just bought my first classic vehicle, and it so happens it is a 1963 F250. I purchased it for only $100. Not too bad. I could always scrap it and make some money. But, i wont. This will be my first vehicle restoration project. I've gotten my feet wet with body work before, but this will be new territory for me. As far as mechanical experience... I am a automotive techncian. So really the mechanical aspect wont be much on me. What i dont know yet is the interchangibilty of ford parts. I'll soon be educated in that im sure. I will post some pictures of my new toy soon, i still have to get her home!

Originally, F250 2wd, 223 l6 manual.
currently , no engine or transmission.

I dont know what bed yet, a flat bed has been fitted to the frame.

No seat either.
