New guy and new truck!

I recently acquired a 1985 F600 cab and chassis. It sat for several years, but remained relatively intact. 370 FE, 4&2, all original. I have scrubbed te neglect off of her, and have a running truck at this point. Purchased 6 new matching Michelin tires, though they are also on split rims. I would have liked solid wheels, but my modest budget precludes such extravagance. I have a 2003 Ford F350 dually box to put on my soon-to-be big pickup. My goal is a good, dependable truck for my not-so-frequent towing needs. I have a 4WD Supercrew diesel that I can't justify having. The pix are before and after cleanup. Don't have the new shoes on yet. Trying to figure out how to get one of the old ones off.

Should be a fun project. Will definitely be a head turner when you get that big bastard on the road.
