Photo Worthy

It's been a while since my last post, mainly due to road trips, other projects and messing with that stupid squeaky belt.  The squeaky belt has been resolved.  I had to install the A/C compressor and sand blast the crank pulley to achieve peace and quiet.

I have been out to the Busy Bee a couple of times and 2 weeks ago, one of the fellows from the North Texas Mustang Club gave me a sign up sheet for the Yellow Rose Classic all Ford car show in Arlington, TX on August 16th and 17th.  I signed up the rusty rig, this should be fun!

Last Tuesday I went to AAF Fort Worth's mixer and ran into a friend who told me some one was looking for a old truck for a photo shoot for a client.  We sent him a picture of the truck and for the next 2 days they were driving it all over the Metroplex and backing it up to an Airstream to take pictures.  Can't say much more than that about it but here is a picture I have:


After that, we got to fooling around and made a You Tube Video to show most the pictures we took during the rebuild process.  Even though it is 7 minutes long, it may be the only time you will see a truck rebuilt in that short of time.

  2. Awesome! When you get "in to it" it is hard to stop and take pictures.

  3. Thanks for sharing your story so far. I came across this by accident during my endless search for ideas on my project, a 67 f100 SWB. This has been inspiring to read.
