Default C8

One of the ford trucks had trouble with the door posts cracking so they modified the thing by welding up the door and cutting a new one. I,m working on it .

Default F8 not C8

Jim
I'm sure that Jason Ginn's 8 is a Ford not a Chev.

C8’s - 15, 6 of which are running

New South Wales, Australia
(Under restoration)Queensland, Australia
(Running) Queensland, Australia
(Under restoration) New South Wales, Australia
(Almost running) Victoria, Australia
(Under restoration)Western Australia, Australia
Western Australia, Australia
(Running) Mike Calnan, Ontario, Canada
War Museum (C8?), Ontario, Canada

Thanks for your input! Sure does appear that the Chevrolets are the favorite for restoration! Again, any corrections/additions are appreciated.
