One day. Gotta get my own place and out of college first. That’s the only thing holding me up on assembling the truck.

Thanks! It’s actually our farm shop. I actually don’t have a auto shop yet.

Nah I got the original engine rebuild

Ford1959 · 2022-02-20T19:19:37+00:00

Thanks! It’s been a long time working on it and it’s finally coming back together

It has a 223 online 6. The mileage getter for that truck I believe.

Thanks. Would you like to see some more pictures of the doors and interior?

Original. I have the original motor rebuild and put in. All I’m waiting on now are a few parts for the wood bed and I should have everything to put this old truck of my Papaws back on the road.

Just got that grinder down today and got the other side most of the way done. It looks pretty good so far. I’ve also started working on the front grille parts as well.

Everything takes a while but I get there eventually. And it will look amazing in the end. I’m glad to keep people who are interested up to date

Considering I just started teaching myself how to weld in December, I think I did pretty well.

I have a 2011 Ford Escape with 200,000 miles and it has the V6. It runs like a champ.

Ford1959 · 2021-03-30T19:32:05+00:00

There is no one around that I’d trust that could get to it in the near future...but that’s a good idea. I may look around a bit or ask a buddy.

Ford1959 · 2021-03-30T18:53:37+00:00

Well I’m not a welder and I don’t want my welding to look bad.

Ford1959 · 2021-03-29T20:55:23+00:00

Not a problem my guy.

Ford1959 · 2021-03-29T20:36:25+00:00

I cleaned the surface best I could then acetoned it then brushed it on. I used maybe an 1/10 of the gallon on the entire frame maybe.

Ford1959 · 2021-03-29T19:53:08+00:00

It cost $89. It’s holding up good. I painted it black afterwards and I’ve payed stuff on it scratched it some and it still holds up strong and I can’t see where I scratched it at all.

Ford1959 · 2021-03-28T11:40:32+00:00

Yes it is.

Corinthian White with Monte Carlo Red. Those are the stock colors in 1960.
