Joe with a littleassistance found this Jewel right across the bridgein Jersey

Right off a few changes are to be made..

Power Steering ... I found a sweet kit here .. www.NoLimit.net or here http://www.nolimit.net/prodinfo.asp?number=PS%2DSA%2D

He also wanted to replace Broken Glass .. Great site right here for Old Ford Truck Parts www.F100Central.com
and don't forget about www.LMCtruck.com or just click this http://www.lmctruck.com/features/FA/FAYearsCovered.htm

How about a Radio ? Found nice ones right here www.CustomAutoSound.com

Steel Wheels with Trim Rings and Small Center Caps .. www.SummitRacing.com search words Wheel Vintiques

Fenders , Running Board etc ..can be found here http://fairlanecompanymi.com/ShoppingCart/RCatalog.asp

I will do my best to try and Help Joe get his new toy up to par ..
But between the Summer Bike Shop Work load and Family time is tight but this Truck is just sucking me in
I can't resist .. Must have been that ride home or the Smokey Burnout I did in it :twisted:

Theres something about this truck .. I even Named it :lol:
Ahh Who am I kidding I'm Sick in the head when it comes to anything with a Motor and tires :?

He's a little rough around the Edges but still Way Cool in my book ....

Joe Good luck with your New to you Truck ...

Here are the pictures out front of the previous owners house
Stay tuned for updates as the truck progresses ...

Blake .. Any interest is taking on some of the work ..
Fairly easy work certainly with your Garage :D

Install some glass in the doors and mouldings .. maybe drop the Power steering rack in it
MADE TO FIT .. No Limit has an awesome set up //
The only issue I see is getting power steering lines
Power steering pump from a mid 60's mustang and pump bracket should bolt right up

If it don't i'll make it fit !!!! :lol: \

I would take it on myself but i'm finishing a Chopper for him .. have the Shop with other bikes
and some other interesting stuff goin on ...

If your not available .. Know any good Wrenches that aren't afraid of Vintage Iron ???
and fabricating instead of sayint IT WON'T FIT .... :P

Been making a few upgrades
and having a little fun with the truck ...

You might notice the red rims up front and say
Man wide whites would look nice on there .....

and matching the back to the front would look good too ..

Well that has been done , I'll update with more pictures soon ,,
