Flo Comes Home






Today, Flo came home.
Flo is a 1959 Ford F-100, with a 292 motor and 3 speed manual transmission. I've been waiting almost a year for her, and finally she's here.
We have big plans for Flo! While the original motor runs (yep. you heard that right, she's a tough old bird even though she's been sitting in a yard for the last 12 years) my husband plans to put in a cobra jet motor. Exterior belongs to me. For a while, we are going to use her as a 'rat rod' where she will stay just as rusted and imperfect as she is.  Eventually, she will be high gloss candy apple red with white accents, with white leather interior and red trim.
We will be doing all the restoration and modification ourselves, and I'll be chronicling it here.
