Here we go... What I have: '59 F100, rear drum/front power disc conversion from '71 Lincoln including booster and master cylinder and block, late '70's Ford rotors & new mid '80's Chevy calipers. Newer brake lines. Problem I have: When truck is not running, pedal is somewhat stiff but...

Thinking about dropping my '59 F100 down like my '68. I am probably going to do the rear flip and remove a couple springs. What about the front? I know I can remove a couple springs there too but is there anything else I can do? Flip the beam on top of the leafs? And if it matters, I have a 429...

Does anyone have any pics of 1959 F100's? I just got one and kinda stuck on which route to go with it. Rat, Gasser, Hot Rod.... ????

For those of you who have used license plates to make a complete floor, how did you fasten them? I have 2 speed limit signs that I used self tappers into the existing floor but would like to surround the rest with plates. I don't really like the idea of using self tappers all the way around my...

Okay, follow me on this.... '68 F100 3 speed manual trans backing 360 FE When I lowered my truck it pushed the driveshaft far enough up into the tranny to butt the yoke up against the tailshaft and create some damage to the seal and the tailshaft. So, while replacing the output shaft seal, I...

Ford 9" rear end.... I rounded out the female plug with my ratchet extension, any suggestions short of welding something on to it to release it? I need to replace my pinion seal and managed to bugger up the square fitting in the plug.

I have called everyone in town and no one can tell me what fluid to top off my 3 sp manual Ford transmission. Its backing a 360 FE from '68. Any help out there?

lets see the winter rods......

Just some pics I took of the very few rods that were there

Well, here she is... I'm ecstatic! and striping all around too! I believe I may call this done!

Well, I just made my appointment for this Thursday to have my truck lettered and this is what's going on... just need some advise and opinions. My grandpa started a service station back in the 50's and I want to put the name and Sunoco insignia on the doors with the shop info. What I'm...

Well, after sitting for a while getting all the bugs worked and finishing the "painting" (or well, you catch my drift) here she is.... Any and all comments welcome.

I'm not sure if you guys have seen this before but I was surfing K.B. and ran across this. This is absolutely amazing!!!! http://www.killbillet.com/showthread.php?t=14425

I'm getting into a routine of sorts.... For the past few days (not exaggerating) I have had several comments on my F100 and it's progress. But is seeming to be every time that something is said, it is always followed by "so, what color you painting it?" or "so, you're restoring it, huh"...

I bought a large blanket intending to recover my original F100 bench and as I started to look at it, was wondering which is the best way to do this? I bought some eyelets and was going to run a strong vinyl rope around the back and underneath to fasten it but not sure about that. I obviously...

I know this is a matter of opinion but I was wondering what would be the "ending years" of the gasser era? I've got my ticker going and just wanted to get a clear view/opinion. And if it matters, lets say... when it ended for trucks (not that they were that popular to make into a gasser).

I havent done a search but was wondering what everyone has done and where they have gotten their leather hood straps. i thought about getting some leather belts and letting them weather outside and then bolting the hardware to the fender and hood but didnt know if anyone has attempted this.

i was trying to look for the right harness for my f100 and ran across one that says: "Harness Supports Modern GM Columns, Including Aftermarket Columns Such As "Flaming River" and "Ididit"...." will this apply to my truck? I dont have any extra accessories... just a plain-jane truck which...

I have spent a few hours under my truck and still unsure as to what I want to do and would like some opinions on what to do. First off, its a 68 f100 and I want it lowered... really lowered. IFS is not an option and swapping out a frame is the last resort. I considered "z"-ing the front frame...

I had someone (and this was not from a big company) come out this morning to give me a quote to run 220 from my box to my garage to be able to use my welder I just got. Just to give you an idea... he said the box had enough room and it would be just fine, all he would have to do is run it...
