Thanks guys, no it's not staying this color..the color looks ok in pics but in person it's like babyshit color haha
Making some progress! I'm throwing thr car together to put it in a local car show Saturday as under construction.
Another car show today! Unfortunately the Ranchero didn't make it all the way home under its own power. Had a friend come help that wasn't too far and ended up flat towing it back..a plugged fuel filter was the issue. I guess the car wants more attention!
The gas tank is one of the first things I got for my Ford. The old one must have been plugged up for years, the brass float turned to powder when I took the sending unit out.
Yeah, a neglected fuel tank is one of those "outa sight, outa mind" thangs that'll bite ya when ya least expect it...
I just saw this thread for the first time. You're doing a great job saving that 'chero!! It won't be long until you're doing the 500 milers like I did this weekend. I assume you are aware of www.57fordsforever.com
Drove her around couple days ago, another sump run and ran some errands..came to the realization it is not ready for daily driving LOL I still have alot left to do mechanically.
