I think you're in for a lot of time restoring this one. If that engine even runs, it's gonna smoke like crazy after being upside down.

We tipped upside down to keep water out it since had no intake. It still antifreeze and oil it before we hauled it home.

It's gonna smoke like crazy when you fire it up. All that oil has to go somewhere, and guess where it went.

My 72 F100 was worse on rust holes in floor boards. My buddy has gas powered air compressor and a sand blaster. He has a welder too.
Have you found out if patch panels are available for the wasted sections?

I know replacement foor boards and cab corners are available throught LMC. Dont know about the rest probably have to make it out of a sheet metal. I saw my buddy do that with a fender he was repairing. It was rotted out all the way in the one corner he cut piece out of a old trunk and welded to the hole but he cut out the rotted part first.

The vin number on the frame matches the vin on the title. Will start sandblasting and painting in after labor day. The is not a 67 hood either. Its either a 68/69 or 70-72 depending on how the holes were drilled for the hood letters. The 67-69 hood letters are smaller than the 70-72 and aren't interchangeable.
