Truck made it safely to the new house. Now it is just getting everything else moved there.

The trucks looking good!

Its been a minute. The truck made it to MN with no issues, other than the cost being way to high (my fault for not doing more research up front). Got all the tools in the garage and now its time to try and get stuff put away!

Will be moving towards doing some garage work in the new year. Need to get stuff sorted out and see what parts need to find new homes. With the weather actually being cold, there will be a lot of inside work to do. I want to try and start getting my wiring laid out. See what parts I still will need like connectors.

I found a salvage yard near the new house in Farmington, MN that only does Fords. He has a few 1967 to 1972 trucks and 1973 to 1979 trucks. But I found out he is closing up shop. I couldn't find a good hood, but he does have a few windshields between 25 and 50 each. Great guy that tried to save as many old Fords as he could.

For those that are still following, it's been too cold to do any real work. On Sunday the wife and I went to HF and picked up a new Air Compressor since they sent me a 25% off coupon. So got the compressor and a free two year warranty! Also got a job here in MN with the same company I was working for in MD so that worked out great! This weekend is going to be over 40 here so we will get the compressor set up and maybe do so cleaning. That all I have for now, but as soon as warmer weather hits it's back to work on this thing!

Harbor freight coupons are the best! They opened a store local to me, and I've spent way too much money in there already .
The cold weather this year has really been hard for making progress. It's tough to work when it's been below freezing in the garage, but I guess we just gotta do what we can.
