New here...My dad's 1952 F5 is new here too!

I'm my dad's daughter and I'm hoping to gain some knowledge to assist dad in selling his 1952 F5 Flatbed! It's a project waiting for the right restoration aficionado. We'll be loading a video this coming week. Many questions will be addressed as we do a walk-around! I will appreciate any advice in how to properly present this icon to the collector's world! If I weren't already engrossed in restoring my little 1966 Pony, I might take it on. BUT, I am! Is anyone out there who'd care to share their expertise in presenting this treasures to the KNOWING masses!

Hi, and welcome to FTE, I hope you check the Guidelines before posting any ads for your truck, since you can't just post them anywhere in the forum, and there are certain rules to follow.

I hope you enjoy the site and find it very useful.

Thanks! Yep, I've read and not yet ready to post - I want a complete listing before I fire that up. I've looked at ads and was just wondering what seasoned users might have to share before I reach that point. Thanks for the welcome - and I think this is a great site!

Hi Tutshut,
I am the new owner of your Dad's cool truck. He's a great guy. I have started 3 threads so far on the 52 flatbed project. If your dad is interested in following it he can just look for threads from Seattle50. It is a bit more challenging than I thought it would be, but it exposed me to the flathead world very quickly. I'm amazed at the following this engine has. Anyway the truck is tucked away in the Barn/Shop and I'm busy get'n her running with great advice from the forum. Hey I would be greatful for any other history you know about the truck's past. Thanks!!
