This is my first forum! I'm just about to get into a project that i am very excited about, i found a 51' F1 with an i6 that runs like a top and a 3-speed trans that seems to be in perfect order. Brakes are all original and rusted beyond repair so i haven't been able to drive it but I'm really not worried about any mechanical stuff. My biggest concern is the body work, this will be my first crack at welding and repairing body panels myself, i had all body work on my 66' fastback done by a pro, i just did everything else. Also, the frame on this one is pretty bad and the truck sags between the cab and bed. I still see it having huge potential and am wondering, since all i know is mustangs, if you guys could tell me if I'm getting ripped off at a price of $1200, and then just some quick advice on how bad you guys think the restoration would be in general. Thanks a lot in advance for any help and I'm sure I'll be able to pay it forward soon, I'm researching these trucks as much as i can. Hope i posted this correctly....
