Alan and Duke thanks! Ill make sure to post lots of pics!

Now to business on getting it restored. I havnt got it to run yet, still tearing into it to find all the broken parts. Ive got to do some surgery on the hood and trans tunnel. The tunnel cover on the 126 at the creeper slot has been bent with something and i can see cuts where someone almost started to open it further with a grinder wheel . The hood holes where it bolts to the grille have completely broken away and the PO mod was done by taking different lenght flat stock with holes in it and drilled new holes in the hood to bolt it back on. So ill either need to find another hood or try to take the 102 parts tractor hood and make up the difference for the missing and mangled metal. Suprisingly the rear fenders are in great shape! Ive already decided on Firestone 23 degree rear tires and Firestone tri-ribs. Not sure what im going to do with the seat but i like it!
