So I haven't posted any project vehicles in quite awhile, the latest is a 1969 Ford F-100. Doing mainly engine work, like a new intake manifold and carburetor, timing chain, water pump, heater core, fixing a lot of odds and ends. Has a Ford FE 390 big block with a 4 speed manual transmission. It looks good from this vantage point, but it's pretty rusty. It originally came from Washington State.

Redid the entire front suspension and steering, entire brake system, entire wiring some engine and transmission work, a whole lot of hours, it's now ready for its owner to finish the cosmetic stuff.

After being in storage for over two years I finally had time to work on something of mine. My grandfather's 1952 Ford F-1 pickup, still running a flathead V-8, three on the tree. After some minor repairs, (new brake master cylinder) and maintenance, it's up and running again!
