That is one nice truck as she sits! Cant wait to see the results of the upgrades.
Post pics of the parts when you get em?
Thanks. Oh yeah I have been going over and over my list took a few things off and added a few, but can't wait to get them here. THe main thing I am going to wait on teh tailgate and find a repro without letters so I can flush mount the outside with a piece of sheetmetal like the newer tail gates are. But other than inside, vintage air, eng and tranny I will have everything to put her together when I get done ordering parts this weekend. I just have to clean out my garage adn get my truck back in there so I will have room for my parts.
1969 Ford F-100. 302 4 barrel, C4 auto, 9in 3.50 open rear, headers, power steering, Turq/wht, Under restoration. In other words, in a million pieces!!!
I just put in a big order for parts too. I looked over what you ordered and i think you could have gotten a better price if you shopped a little. I'm on a pretty tight budget so I have to look for the best price. I was surprised to see that dennis carpenter had better prices than LMC on lots of stuff. So I split my order. About 1/2 went to LMC, the other 1/2 went to DC.

Good luck and I'm looking forward to more pics.
Yeah but as much as I ordered I saved on shipping by ordering over a thousand dollars in parts at one time. I figure the shipping would cost me about the same as if I had went else where to buy part of it.

Well I just got all of my parts today at work. I haven't tore into them yet cause I'm at work and they are foam packed cause I ordered new door glasses and vent glasses and I guess that was insurance to make sure they wouldn't break. I can't wait to see all the goodies.

Well I finally got around to opening my parts up and man great service again from LMC. I love that place. Well just ordered my ROn Francis harness, fuel cell, and cab mount kit today. I am ordering my Flaming River tilt column tomorrow when I get to work. Accidentally found out that my wife has ordered me a 514 crate engine as far as I can tell. Man I hope so and can't wait to slide that baby down in there. Only a few major things I am missing now. Radiator, Vintage Air, 4 wheel disc, and tranny. THen deciding how to do the interior is gonna be my biggest pain. Man she is definatley going in the right direction. Now that the weather is cooler gonna set her off the frame and start the complete ground up rebuild. I'm so excited.

I don't want to give em a heart-attack. That is what would happen if I answered the door in the buff. Heck it almost scares me to death when I step out of the shower and look in the mirror.~Mancar1~

In life many men take the path of righteousness, some take the path many others follow (G.M. owners, for example), some take a more arduous path, some a simpler path. I, sir, took the PSYCO-PATH!!
