Re: My 1965 ford f100
well shes starting to go back together.. planning on getting everything back on the front end and bolted together so when i get ready to paint i can just unbolt fenders from cab and unbolt radiator bolts and paint separate... but this way i can get it back together and running.. it actually went together pretty easy, i had to space the inner fender on the passenger side out about a half an inch to geth it right.. i would have gotten a little more done but when i moved my bed to get to the front piece of the truck i found a freaking huge red wasp nest prolly a foot wide.. i hosed em down with wasp spray.. i swear there was a 1000 of them suckers.. lol there was dead wasps all over my shop.. anyway heres my pics

Re: My 1965 ford f100
nice work on your truck but i think that brake hose may be upside down
not 100% on that but to me it does not look right, i believe the hose should come out on the bottom of the bracket to avoid that severe u bend

NOPE THEY ARE ON RIGHT. THAT'S HOW THEY WERE BEFORE, MY AXLE IS JUST SAGGING WAY DOWN. THERE ISN'T A SEVERE BEND IN THE HOSE WHEN THE AXLE IS BACK IN PLACE.. I LOOKED ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND A LOT OF OTHER OLD FORDS ARE THE SAME WAY.. I MAY BE WRONG BUT I DON'T THINK SO.. LOL
