    That C1100 actually looks to be in pretty solid shape. Probably wouldn't take too much to get it back on the road. Wish I had the space, and the time to make an offer for it.

    I'm about to get the roof of my 2014 Ford F150 wrapped. It's Ruby Red and has some bad places in it. Gonna do black wrap through the center of the roof next weekend.
    I’ve got a 2014 ruby red F150 as well, and the paint really is in bad shape up top too. My fault for keeping it outside and not washing it for months at a time

    It’s over in Kilgore, probably let it go for $500. Still had oil in the filter bath, but the valve cover was missing the oil cap. Probably has a critter or two in there.

    Refreshing the front suspension and sreeing ball joints, adding some mods for better ride and handling such as what's called a Shelby/ Arnig drop.
    This lowers the upper A arm mounting point 1" in order create more caster and camber.
    New coil springs.
    New spring perches with roller bearings rather than hard rubber.
    New Pittman arm with roller bearings as well. Cool stuff!

    Don't ever buy a vintage vehicle and think all is okie dokie cuz it aint.
    Never ending parts searches or buying and returning parts because they sent you the wrong year or they changed your order to help you out because their car was different so yours is too. Fvk Fvk Fvkity Fvk!

    I have really been surprised at the available parts for my 85 El camino. I have been able to find just about everything I have needed.
