COE COE Picture thread (imported from main board)

Yes, I am just a short road trip away from Arkansas. What is the link to your grill picture?

 

Can I have some Provalone with that Swiss?

 

Just exctly where is "threre"? I missed where you mentioned the place is. Thanks

 

Your grill is not that bad...Oh, it may be cheesy, rusty, crusty, and pleasantly perforated, but believe me, mine was far, far worse.

 

Read the previous post (#3802)

 

Gee, I'd have that grille
(I don't even have one for either of my 2 cabs )

 

Road trip to Lost in the 50'2 in Sandpoint ID. Maiden run for this guy out of Leduc, AB Awesome looking rig. Never got a chance to talk to him, think it is running a Duramax.

 

Same roadtrip, saw this driving by a body shop in Cheney, WA. Long way to go, but looking good.

 

Oh yeah, here is another COE, a little one, but still a COE. My Econoline was never this good looking.

 

He's from Leduc?

Cool, I can't believe I've never seen this one around!

 

This is for HOTFR8.

 

It was from this picture that I got my idea of how to build the arch in the front rear axle so the drive shaft could p*** through to the rear rear.
It is also worthy to note that just about everything you see in that picture, other than tires is made of stainless steel. The owner/builder owns a stainless fab shop.

 

Thanks. Neatly done.

 

The group of guys at this shop do great work...real metal working with body hammers, dollys and body files. Very little mud in the rigs they build. The did a '32 coupe a few months back also. They're about 10min up the road from me.

 

I have seen that truck in person several times......really a work of art. He had to use the rear axle to have room for a driveshaft if I recall.

 

Here is another very similar picture.
Like RMR&C says, a work of art.
I was blown away by the tool boxes, there was just something about how perfect they were.
Like all the fab workmanship.

 

I am surprised by the size of those rear tyres. Could have almost run duals.

 

Here is one I have to build for a mate soon, we have a C30 ch***is to go under it already, Just have to finish his other projects first. Will keep you updates as it starts and progress's

 

You have a MATE

 

Only in Melbourne, none anywhere else

 

He has got one in Shoalhaven Heads as well

Bill

 

A little progress on my coe. shortened the frame.

 

r u searching for one too Bill (friend that is! )

 

Oh! Bill................
You need to change your avatar

 

yeah!!
(wouldn't they be FUN in the wet )

 

I certainly hope he can lift his pusher axle to get weight on his drives for bad conditions

 

This is a top thread i have just looked at every page,i have got two Ford COE trucks that i imported into Australia from Texas.One of the is a 1948 model with a Holmes Wrecker body fitted to it and the other one is a 1956 model that is a cab ch***is that was a cream cake delivery truck in another life.I will post some pictures when i work out how to do it
Regards Dale

 

G'Day Dale
(long time no see!!)
yes, a GREAT thread!
(I MUST build one of mine one day )

 

That would be odd to see it sitting on the front axle and no drive on the rear.
