Hello ALL!

My name is Adam and have recently acquired a 51 stepside. I am still in the process of learning about the truck. It was originally my Wife Biological fathers that he has owned since it had 700 miles on it. I will be th third owner performing a second restoration. The truck has been sitting in a garage for 10+ years so it is in relative good shape. Plans are IFS, Ford 9 and I already have a small block 400 and th350 trans for her. This will be one of two truck in my small fleet. My other is an 89 that is in the process of being painted so little work will be done on the 51 until I can get the 89 most of the way completed. On with the pics.
