'56 Ford F100 build
My dad recently gave me his '56 Ford F100. I'm so excited to start on it. Unfortunately, it is about 250 miles away so work on it will progress very slowly. I plan to get it running and replace as little parts as possible. Because of the sentimental value of it, I'll be hesitant to replace anything other than what I need to drive it or make it safe. Here are the pictures I took of it last weekend:

272 V8. It was running when it was parked....20+ years ago
Amazingly, all rust you see is only surface rust. I didn't see any panels that were rusted through. Seems very solid, plus the glass is still intact.Last edited by gearhead65; 09-30-2013 at 03:44 PM.
