I am primarily a truck guy so I'm on here and FTE 'ford truck enthusiasts'. I have stayed away from the HAMB because I have heard a lot about people jumping down your throat if you suggest something that isn't in the realm of the pre-war or fifties hot rod. Your project looks really interesting to me so I maybe I should sign up and take a look. I have done 4 build threads on FTE. I have an unusual one going on here called 'truck based woodie' in which I'm converting a '47 half ton to a commercial old school woodie wagon. Now that you mention it, there aren't a lot of build threads here, but there sure are a lot of helpful and knowledgeable guys to help those of us who are currently up to our elbows in grease, dirt, rust and in my case add sawdust.
