I am on a couple of other forums.I had some knee surgery yesterday.I jumped off the alignment rack at work and my 42 year old knee didn,t like it.I work on Hondas to pay the bills.
I will probably be home about a week or three.
I have a 54 F100 that I am working on and a 56 Ford car.The truck is first on the list.I guess people will call it a Rat Rod .So far it is flat black.It has a Buick front clip and Buick 350 and a nine inch from a 66 F100 with 3.25.The car is a four door and the stock 292.It was my first car.I got it when I was 14 or 15.
Here is the only picture I have of the truck right now(I know I need a new camera).

The old car after I pulled it out of the weeds were it was since about 1983.

Right on on the four door. Looks like a fun project. Have you got a plan in mind yet?

I am not sure what I am going to do with the 56 yet.I want to get the truck going first.
I got some wheels and tires that hold air on it and got the 292 unstuck.I have the e-brake working and a temp fuel pump so I can move it in and out of the shop utill I decide what I want to do with it.
I am probably going to keep the Y block in it but I am not sure about the fordomatic.I might change it over to a manual trans.
