    I am doing a resto mod on my 85 short bed. I drove it my senior year in 2001 after my Grandpa and I rebuilt the 300. The trans went out and it sat for 20 years behind my Dads barn. It was my Dads truck and it has the cab off my Grandpas 81 f100 ranger. The original cab caught fire in 96. Thanks for sharing man, definitely motivation for me. I plan to do the same drop on mine and yours sits just how I pictured mine.

    Great job, These Bull and Brick Nose Fords are a hot build here in Central Florida because they are the last of the cheap/affordable Classic trucks. I've never been a Ford guy but I just bought a 84 F-150 302 with an auto trans because I need a truck once in awhile and I picked it up for $1400 and drove it home, Yeah it has some body issues but I repeat.... I paid $1400 for it and drove it home.
