New from Tx

Hi all,

Newbie from Austin area. Recently inherited a 1965 F100 gem. I'll be posting often asking for input.

Thanks Dan! I'm pretty excited about starting this project.

My father bought this truck new when I was 3 yrs old. The family couldn't afford it, so my Grandfather bought it from him. Both have passed since then, so this "might" be a no-expenses barred frame-off rebuild. I just need to decide which way to go - ultra modern with new frame, or original oly resto.

Thanks for the kind words!

Don
