'68 F100 2 wheel project

[Fordkidd]

So this is the thread im starting to record my build/resto of my 1968 f100 Ive just picked up , the trucks in pretty rough shape body wise its got lots of bondo from the previous owner who im sure helen keller could've done better and the wiring is also wrecked pretty good (I guess he though speaker wire was a good alternative instead of you know maybe fixing it right !) but besides that it runs swell , factory original 240 six and three on the tree transmission its got the toolbox on the passenger side and the guy said something about it being a farm special although I have no clue as to what that is or how to verify it , as far as the goal its gonna be a dd for now and im gonna work on it when I can to make it original as possible with some mods to it . Oh and another thing I will not be using any lightweight body filler on this truck its gonna be all done in lead body solder just because I can
