70 F100 Big Burtha UPDATE 4/11
Well I've Started My Cab Swap And While Taking The Cab Off My Truck I've Had Almost 2 Years & I Discovered Some Stuff.
The truck no front clip
Cab Resting On 2x4's
Rusty Floors
Gutted
Whatever Tranny Shop Did The Work I Shure Hope They Still Don't. They Didn't Even Put Nuts On The Tranny Mount Bolts.
Battery Tray Fix

I can see them fine. Looks like you're making good progress. I gotta agree on the shifter. What a hack job.

I know they didn't even try to make it look some what nice. They did the same with the shifter it went from 3spd to auto and it looks like both times someone didn't know who to use a cutting torch or tape measurefomocoguy wrote:I can see them now! That is a fancy custom battery tray they fabricated for you...

reminds me of the handy work I found when I got me 68.
Like the radiator overflow can.
And the engine tie downs

That's some really nice work they did.
I really like the speaker wire and engine mount. Some of the stuff people come up with really amazes me sometimes.
