nice truck man. my granfather has handed down his 56 f100, that he bought new from the ford dealership, to me as my first car. i was trying to look at some diffrent trucks and kinda get an idea of what i wanted to do with it, and i saw yours. just waundering what suspension you have in the front and rear, and what kind of engine is in your truck?
Congrats on your 56! I still have the stock suspension, the front has been lowered 2" since the video by removing 2 leaf springs. The engine is a 1957 272 Y-Block
It has the stock rear end with 3.92 gears
