Yeah I'm debating from the '77 and '97 right now. I like the simplicty of the older trucks, no computer problems, fix them yourself... the '97...
Oh, also a possiblity of a '97 F-250HD that was rolled... but I think the chassis might be too different to do without a lot of cab floor work....
Right now it looks like I'll either have a '75 (maybe 77) F100, or a '64 F250. Any idea on what would work better for daily use? I'm not sure how...
Thanks for the input guys I'm thinking if I can find a '78 or older Ford with a step-side bed (ideally long bed) that would be the way to go....
Thanks for the input guys, still so much to figure out here... more suggestions or advise much appreciated.
Yeah my thoughts exactly. Pre-4x4 4x4 truck. Sitting low with huge tires... mmm
My truck needs some work to be a daily driver. I need it to be a 4x4 given I live in snowy country. I've looked into swaping parts onto the...
I think they only work on vechicals that have a vertical a-pillar, not a slant cab. Could always unmount a door, then get someone to hold it as...
lol thanks ^_^ I cleaned the oxidation up a bit and made some of the cracks in the double pane glass look a bit more interesting. Already had...
Well, after SEVEN months she finally made it home today. When I first bought her she was trapped in snow, then in June when I finally managed to...
Some very awesome trucks! That chop on the C60 sure makes for an awesome look!
Very killer! And it seems we're the only two here with a truck over a half ton sized, lol
Well my 1956 F-600 is FINALLY after 7 months of a massive mess, making it home on Saturday. To celebrate I thought I'd like to see a thread on...
eBay it. Some where out there someone's dream just fell into your hands.
Not much to look at at the moment, but I have some big plans ;) [IMG] [IMG] Less than 64k original miles. I'm the third owner (the second...
Neat little grille on the car on the right..
lol it took me FOUR years to find the perfect shade of blue for my Mustang. I wanted a very specific shade of cobalt, and I wanted it to do very...
Thanks for the link, I'll give that a shot, looks like fun ^_^ Havi, that does really point out the fact of how hard it is to find a perfect...
Money well spent though, lol Here's a link to the guys truck, I'm going to see if I can't find a way to contact him other than leaving a comment...
I'm having trouble finding that perfect shade of red for my truck. I'm finical, really finical on shades and effect. Thus it usually takes me a...
Oh, I did some research on the Ferrari colors. Ferrari's famous red is known as Rosso Corsa: [IMG] Rosso Barchetta is my favorite of their...
I'm in the same boat as you, trying to find the right shade of red. I was going to go with a kandy candy apple red over gold, but I think I might...
That sucks, happens all the time around here, people simply aren't honest or responsible. Sorry to hear about it, but damn you did an amazing job...
Ah thanks for that, very cool and helpful! I think you're right about getting a stick welder, I may just look into that. Though I might end up...
So cutting the frame seems to be the way to go. I suppose the section to take out then would be after it reaches the full width. From what I've...
The steels about 1/4" thick though (to my knowledge), if its not enough she'll split in two, lol. Mine is a little wanr to do that strong enough...
Couple pictures: [IMG] [IMG] These pictures are quite larger on my computer so I can get a closer shot of anything if needed. By the...
So I think the very first thing I'm going to do on Abby is shorten her. A 154" wheel base makes for a very big truck, (not to mention its a couple...
Thanks :) Yeah Sheridan is a beautiful place, but there is nothing-to-do.Ever. lol.
