Yeah, I had my surgery about 14 months ago. Just went back to work in March of this year. Honestly, and I don’t mean to be a downer, but it’s been...
Well, how’s the Ol’ Girl doin?
[ATTACH] Here's my 1960 B100, will be for sale soon.
It is 103" (stock ford) like it should be. Never was a fan of the stretched out in front frame style.

Adding an aftermarket chrome accessory is probably the easiest thing to add when outfitting your Mild Custom. Catalogs like J.C. Whitney were full...
That's the only 49-56 ish Ford (I think? Lol The roof says "Victoria" to me) that I like. Who did that car? Was/Is it a local car? That's the kind...

Ok, here's my 1961 International Harvester B-100 Mild Custom pickup project, sort of a "cool shop truck" that maybe a custom shop would have had....
If I was still taking care of her, Washington Blue would be my choice. Hey, that's Newport Green!! That shit rules!! Hahahaha!!

First ride. Me and Ed of course. No doors, open exhaust. I'd do it again in a minute. [MEDIA]

He would have needed a Dan Gurney Bump in the roof, GT40 style, lol.
Ok where was I? Oh yeah, the fuel tank. We forgot to go grab it and the swap folks were packing up. Safari-Wagon and I run over and get the guy to...
I know I'm biased but, I haven't seen it in a while. Seeing it in someone else's shop is at first, a shock to the system for sure. I've always...
The axle tubes, axles and matching spider gears (important) are 1937-41 Ford. The center section is 1942-48 Ford light truck open drive, carrier...
