I'll start off with the F6 as it waits to be loaded on a trailer and hauled away to a friend.

Not much to look at right now, but here's what it looked like a few weeks ago. Frame repairs are under way at the moment to replace front/front spring hanger mounts and cab mounts, repair rear/front spring hangers, and to clean up a previously repaired frame crack. The 215 OHV 6 cylinder engine is at the machine shop being cleaned up and readied for a rebuild. Chuck Mantiglia did axle and transfer case rebuilds on the ones from my other '52 F-3 M-H so those will go under this truck. Stu

Heres my F-8. I pulled it down to the house finally.

Here it is in the front yard. Sorry for the shadows.

We cut off the homemade headache rack/boom anchor and the remnants of the boom mount. I`ve got an 8x8 flatbed that I`m going to put on it.

That short wheel base F-8 looks stout....like bull dog stout.....sorry Mack, but it does!

I know, isn`t it cool? The 10.00/20 tires help too. Here`s a view of the back and the hitch I thought I`d leave on. (Hey, someday it`ll pull the mud bogger.)smilieFordlogo

Notice anything wrong with that inner dual?
 
Here's pics of the mighty Merc in all it's present glory. I'm doing a little metal work before final teardown. The left front fender was pretty mushed in the front, but it's taking shape now. Just a couple small rust holes to fix in the corners and she'll be good to go. How do you like my 'old school' interior? :wavey:

Scott, That's a nice collection of Ford material, right there!

I've got 4 days in a row to start moving my stuff around. I'm sure there'll be a photo-op in there somewhere, lol.
