Projects 57FORD's F-100 build Thread

well off to IKEA for the little lady, then to Harbor freight to blow my Christmas gift cards

 

your truck is looking good.you will like the 460. what trans are you using?

 

Keep the pics coming, it looks really good.

 

Thanks gilles d.
right now it has a C-6 but i would like to find a manual someday.

 

Thanks tacho hopefully within the next few weeks i can start making the cab corners. i will post up more then.

 

What size are those wheels and tires? i really like those

 

they are 235/70/15 in the back. i have pics of the tags on the first page of my posting.

 

What a difference. Looks great! How much of a drop does the axle have and where did you purchase it from?

 

its all from cpp. front 3in mono leaf. 4in drop axle and rear is just flipped.

 

I just found your thread. The trucks hide on the hamb because a lot of people still think a hot rod is a car. I love it and am personally rebuilding a '55 F100. Great work.

 

ya its definitely not traditional but i will love it just the same ha ha. and thanks for the good words

 

With that much on a c notch in the rails, did you have to cut the bed floor out? And did you run bump stops or not?
