Hey all. nice to see a great site for 60s trucks.
I have a 1961 F250 2wd longbed. has a 223 inline six. 4 speed on the floor.
Looking to use a Crown Vic as a donor for front suspension and rear axle. Like the idea of disc brakes on all 4.
Look forward to seeing everyones rides and comments.
thanks , Truckman61 from DSM Iowa

Thanks for the greetings. Tried to post a pic of my truck. Attachment must have been too large. Not sure. Original color of paint faded turquoise color with patina.
Thanks Truckman61

The best way to post pics here is to park them at photobucket, and then link here...it keeps the cost of running the site down...
