My New Project!
 

http://www.efishant.com/remotefiles/.../ford_post.jpg

I've acquired a 1961 Ford Unibody. It is straight, and runs well. We run a street rod shop in Salem, OR (bowersrodshop.com) so I have access to everything I need to make it as good as new (except the funding).

In High School I had a 66, but let it go because it was a long bead. Now I have this short bed, and I am going to hold onto it. I would like to have it ready for my son when he is ready to drive. I've always liked the yellow/white Moon Eyes truck. It is clean, crisp. and not to tricked out.

My plans, in order:

-Repair rust on floorboards and bed
-Change bench seat to buckets
-Off set wheels and drop a few inches
-Add power steering and tilt column
-Upgrade to 5.0 and automatic trans
-New paint

I'll be asking for help throughout the process, as this appears to be the best reference on the web. I've already found some answers in past posts. I also hope to offer some insight if I can!

First, I need help filling out my profile with the trucks information, but I don't know if it is an F100, F150, etc. Can anyone help?

Thanx!

It will be an F100, no F150s till in the 70s. You may not be able to have a signature until you have 25 posts. I'm not sure of this though.

That looks like a nice truck.

Isn't that life. I have the funds but don't have the space you have and if I did I'd probably be sent out to the dog house next to it...:-rip
