So I haven't been here as much due to life (work, school, family)...but things have definitely chilled out and I'm back into the swing of things. So we know what that means...project time! I decided to do something really different...a fat-fendered 50s ride. 1953 F100!

It's getting a low-mile Lightning drivetrain (still need a harness...), crown Vic front end, 4 link rear with an 8.8 from a Mach1, and very basic looks. Nothing crazy. I've been working on it literally non-stop!







It's currently borrowing wheels from my Shelby, but hey look and fit pretty decent.

So far, so good!

I was just wondering why I haven't seen you post lately. I'm glad to hear things are settling and glad to see you working on another project. Looking forward to seeing the progress.

Between grad school, home life, and the full time job...I was slammed! Schools done so free time is here. I picked this up in October 2015 and the work see here has been over the last month. I picked it up like this...
EBay for the win!

Nice! I've got a 72 F100 project I've started with a CV front and C-10 Trailing Arm rear suspension.
