Technical Show me your 48-50 f1's

I have a 49 f1 that i have had forever and finally about to start building. But I have no idea what I should I do with wheels, paint, stance, etc. so I'd like to see what you guys have done.

Not to sound like the obvious answer, but what style do *you* like? Build it that way. Lot of cool F-1 trucks on here. F-1 make great hot rod trucks and can be built to fit almost any style you want.

 

I'm trying to keep it look original as possible but with a different stance and maybe different wheels. I'd like to see what colors go good with this truck.

Rusty1 I ran across that one a while ago but I was hoping to start a just f1 thread so it wouldn't get so long and be easier to look at all the trucks.

Cool!,...I like 48-52 better than the later F-100's anyway.
...here's my 48.

 

For wheels, you can't go wrong with Cragar SS, Torque Thrust, Slotted Mags or chrome smoothies with baby moons

some good examples of trucks in this thread;

mines a bit different ....link is below

 

Traditional looks good. I've chopped mine 3" and it runs 16" International rims which take 4 1/2" stud pattern Ford/MoPar. Keep it simple.
