Its been awhile since I've put new pics of my 1977 F-150 on here..Soo here ya go.

Right now It's in the process of being partially restored. I already replaced the old 400 I blew up with a 351M. I got a new tailgate, steering column with a working shifter, and it actually has brakes now! I just need to find some doors and fenders now! Could use a box too..

And a new bench for the back

Hey, that's a perfect set up if you want to back into your spot at the drive-in show!

I used to put a wicker couch in mine to go to the drive-in. (along with some pillows and sleeping bags in case the company was more interesting than the movie.)

Haha yeah..that bench in the back is pretty cool! Alot of people like riding in it when I go muddin'.

Cant wait for all the snow to go away so I can start working on it!

The weather
A few of the golf courses have already opened in Alberta because of a mild winter.
