He is 2 1/2 but I wanted a vehicle that he remembers from day 1. I want to have it on the road in the next 6-12 months so we can use it for our local car shows and drive in's. It went into a barn in 1960 and came out 3 yrs ago when we bought it from the original owner. It has true patina and was a complete truck until it rolled into my shop. Now it has a tubular MII front end bagged, a T-Bird IRS bagged, C5 auto and a very healthy 351W with EFI. I am going to fix what little rust it has and blend in the patina for now. Then when he is old enough to help me work on it we will chop, stretch, channel and paint it. I just figure if it is on the road it will stay in better shape than if it just sits waiting for him plus this way he will take owner ship in it and maybe not tear it up when the time comes.
