Hey y'all
First time on the forum here. I'm working on wrestling a '56 F250 from my father and putting the cab on a F100 shortbed frame. He's got a lot of parts for it, and basically all I need is the frame, bed, and a 9" rear and I should be set. Oh, and lots of time.
Actually, I'm not wrestling it, he's giving in fairly voluntarily. However, I do need to get it to WY from SOcal.
Thanks in advance for all the tips I hope to be getting here.
PS if anyone has the aformentioned frame, rear end, etc or a lead on one close to me, please don't be shy!

The best name to affix "dangerous" to is Dan. Then you can add a bi-line:
DANGEROUS DAN
THE POLICE MAN
or
DANGEROUS DAN
THE FORD MAN
But Dangerous Dave is ggod too. Jag

My son's name is Danny. Ever since he was just a little squirt I've called him Dangerous Danoo McGrew (don't ask me why....it just rolls of the tongue nicely)

Dave, No promises, but I might have a frame for you. I have a '55 F100 that is a donor for my '54, and I won't be needing the frame. I don't how far you are willing to travel for it. It's in south central North Dakota. It probably won't be available until later this summer, after I have the chance to remove the parts that I need.
Glad to have you aboard. Sounds like alot of good times are headed your way.
