New guy from Toronto

Hi and thanks! I have been reading here on core support replacement and thought I would join.
I have a F 250 xlt 1997 a friend gave me. Had not run in 7 years. Its a dedicated CNG truck with out of date tanks and I am going to convert it back to gas. The existing CNG tanks are still in the truck and are 1/4 full and I will use that up running the truck around the shop until its ready to convert. Truck seems to run OK after 7 years sitting and fired right up with a battery and air in tires.
My plan is to also convert it to a flat bed over suspension type setup. Not designed yet but throwing ideas around.
Truck suffers from the usual set of problems and needs a new core support, new rocker panels and maybe a few areas on the floor are bad.
Also i have the majority of the interior out except the dash, headliner and seat and i have all those items cleaned up.
So I'm going in deep. I will have a ton of questions having never worked on a Ford but I am OK with tools and have a small shop to do work. I will post a few pics shortly
