Hey Gary!

You are at the best site for any help you need on that project. A lot of folks like the 56 and there's a bunch around in various stages of restoration. You also might be able to find some other folks doing similiar work in your state chapter: Michigan Chapter - Ford Truck Enthusiasts Forums
