My '54 F100...

Just bought this truck, numbers matching, all original, '54 that has been sitting in an old garage for 30+ years. The truck belonged to my father years before that and now it is back in the family for a complete original restoration. These pics were taken the day I brought her home. It's a whole lot cleaner now...lol.

I'm really pleased....it's all in pretty much good shape. I need the drivers door and a seat, everything else pretty much reusable.
