Most abandoned projects are from people who had no idea what they were getting into. Any work they attempted probably did more damage than good. Finding an abandoned project in this condition by someone who knew what they were doing is probably more rare than finding an original survivor.

Thanks guys. Would like to find a '51 Effie as my Dad opened a local Ford Dealership that year in partnership with my Maternal Grandfather.

A friend has a 1950 F1 survivor with running flathead still under the hood. No visible rust, brakes need work and original glass fuel pump was removed to repair and may be lost. It was stored in same barn since 1950 and never seen a barn find so clean. I think she is asking $16k as is but its not advertised. I'd buy it myself but looking for something heavier with modern drivetrain. I could never chop a survivor this clean.

My dad owns a 55 f100. Was a peach orchard truck from southern california. Put a 390 and c6 from a 68 murcury parklane.

Old episode seen it years ago turns out beautiful

Got mine, running and driving '54, for $9500. On an '83 F150 frame with 302 automatic and disc brakes.

Cool, gonna be a cool build!!!!!!! 👍👍👍

Awesome informational educational video experience Y'alls God Bless Ya 🙏

I hope you can do a special on under coating on a old truck like that 53 or 54 Ford. I would like to see it on a full teardown restoration. I think it would bond better to sand blasted, prime, scuff and paint then apply the under coat?.

A well built FE would work well with this truck.You suggested a 460,a 351C,or a 429 would work too.The aftermarket has stepped up for the FE & the 385 series engines so much recently. It's really a question of preference & money now.
