Hi all, just found this group here, seems like a bunch of knowledgeable people.  I have a '67 SWB all original.  It looks like utter crap but I wouldn't trade it for an '08 F250 even if you begged.  The frame is straight, it drives without drifting left and right, has a tight steering box.  The transmission is a little tricky because of the homemade linkage.  The 240 in it has less than 15 miles on it cause my dear wife wont let me make it legal, atleast not yet.  The single barrel carb still has the manual choke.  The only thing not original is the added seatbelts.  My wife wouldn't let our son ride in the truck until I added seatbelts back when it was a daily driver.  It starts, runs, drives, and stops (very important!!)  again, next is body work.  Anybody know if the frame was painted originally?  What color?  I know the firewalls were black, the engine and the bellhousing were/are ford blue. What about the transmission and rearend?  Does anybody know?  Thanks for anyhelp.
