First Ford/Denmark

Hi There

I just bought a decent 55 f-100 on ebay and are looking forward to bringing it home to Denmark. My future plan includes chopping lowering and tilting.
I am building it for my wife as a advertising tool for her company(Design)
I feel lucky to have found this forum and will probably be posting a lot with different questions regarding the build up.
I am a machinist and automechanic and will make a site containg all info and pictures regarding the project.
It is planned to take 2 years. I work in a hotrod shop here in Denmark that specializes in ford. I own a 68 Gto myself but are looking forward to a new project. Anyways , just wanted to say hello to everybody here and I´m looking forward to sharing knowledge and interset.

Regards Jacob
