Going to a show: Anyone got a FAQ page all about 1956 F100s?

Hello from Scotland.

I am showing my 1956 F100 at my local show on the 17th May -it's the Stirling and District Classic Car Club Charity Rally.

I am planning on putting together a big a3 sheet of Frequently Asked Questions -ie:
What is it?
Where is it from?
How much did it cost when new?
How many were made?
What engine is in it?

And the question everyone asks: what's the mpg...

I was wondering if anyone had already put together such a sheet that I could "borrow" from?

Any ideas?

Thanks,
QbE

Here's a couple answers:

56 | 1956 Ford F100 | Truck | Parts | Information | F100Central.com


Personally, it probably be a lot more fun just to make everything up. 1923 Dodge Prototype, runs off water and a battery, gets 312 miles to the gallon, made in Russia, sold for 32 cases of Vodka.

lol, but thats just me...

Soooperb. Nice one, just the ticket.

Although, I really do like the suggestion of a little flexing of the truth...

lol yep, it's a lot of fun to mess with die-hard fans, the trick is to sound very serious about it. It's like when the Star Wars movies came out, if you yelled "Star TREK" sucks! You got a much bigger reaction than if you said Star Wars... not that I ever did that, but still nothing messes with people more than lots of confidence in the wrong thing.

Best to do it when it's very obvious, like when you're at the tailgate at it says "FORD" to call it a Chevy. Then when they say ' no thats a Ford', disagree with them and tell them its a chevy with a Ford tailgate and badges.
Just stop before they hit you, lol.
