Forgotten 1957 F100 Hot Rod Pickup Truck!! Abandoned for 40 Years! Will it Run?!?

I purchased this 1957 Ford F100 shortbed from a classified ad in the Minnesota Street Rod Association Linechaser publication late this summer. The previous owner had it for several years after he purchased it from an auction in Iowa but never did anything with it so he decided to list it for sale. He claimed it was an old "Drag Truck" because it had a "351 Cleveland and oversize rear tires". No doubt this pickup has some cool history! Let's see if we can get it running and back on the road after being parked for 40 or so years!!! This hot rod pickup has been SOLD!!! As always, thanks for watching!
