Hi Frank. Will be heading your way next week. Is it warm out yet? I know it looks ok in pics...but I have to paint it and then the lettering and maybe a mural or two. It has enough room on the box for a lot of wording. I cannot do any work till June anyway so it will stay like this till then.
I drove it last night and the truck is like a 10 year old truck. I really want this and the big 56 down at the ranch in Florida and will be moving them down in the next few years.
Dave/ no stinkin rugrats for me.....if they aren't old enough to sand and mask.....stay home...LOL

Maybe Uncle Bill's **** Body Shop Camp & Day Care Center... How's that sound to you?
I can't help it Man... This stuff is just too good to let go. I can just see you now surrounded by a class of rug rats with sand paper in their hands. Makes me wish I was good at drawing cartoons. Even though I sympathize with you it's still funny. Yeah, I know... You don't think so.
Next time they show up put their little hand in molasses and them dip their hands in an old feather down pillow. They will be so busy trying to pick the feathers off they won't have time to bother you. You just have to be creative Man. There's always a solution.
Later Man...

Just finished painting the inside of the box and all it's compartments. It is now all white inside and carpeted.
I decided to put ALL my small truck parts..NEW AND OLD inside and in the shelves.
I have alot of parts since inheriting ''earl'' and all my parts are blasted and or painted and in plastic bags.
The truck is not even 1/2 full and there are nearly 3 complete truck(56) in pieces in there...LOL
The paint work next....and respray red and then letter it.
Pics soon........but I got extatic when all my parts fit and are all categorized and all the bolt bins are holding bolts,fasteners for my trucks.
Feels good to have all those parts out of the ''hotrod'' barn!!
Room for another truck.....haha!!

Wondering if I should go with a wrap on the box of the 57?
Maybe FTE would back me and we could do a fte theme and pics of 48-60 ford trucks in sequence on the box and advertise for FTE on the box.
Morris....what do you think?
