Features 1959-60 Ford F100 Pics?

Pretty nice lil pickup

 

Yup cut and re-welded frame.

 

Here is the thread...which I need to update

Bought from fellow HAMBER irondoctor..... as is and photo "chop"

 

I dig the wires^

 

i agree with the wires, just go a little bigger on the front. Those look a bit small. dont do 5 spokes, think outside the box some..

 

Clean truck... But tell your buddy his caddillac air cleaner is on backwards.

 

nice catch there, i had to take a second look

 

Thanks Guys..i do like the spokes but they are so $$$$$$$....if u guys see some deals out there let me know thanks again

PS thats the best lookn '64 i have seen....nicely done!!!

 

I have to agree on the cost of them, they are up there for sure but oh so cool. You could go with some supremes also, those would be better than just a 5 spoke in my opinion.

Thanks for the compliment. That's very nice of you. I tgink my next project will have to be a 59, 60 f100. I think I will have to see what I can come up with for one of them.

 

Supremes???i'm not familiar

 

Great thread. I've really taken a liking to the Refrigerator Effies over the last couple years. Lowering the nose really makes a world of difference for the styling.

...fridges...[/QUOTE] how/ why did this term come about

 

Here is my little 60 223 3 on the tree.

 

See the resemblance?

-Dave

 

Well here are a few pics of the '59 i found for $400. It's pretty rough and not sure if its too big a project? Really bad on right side cab... The engine is a 351 and it does turn over.

 

See the resemblance?

-Dave[/QUOTE] Just that they are square

 

Maybe you shouldn't call them Refrigerators, then.

-Dave

 

A '57 - '60 Ford truck looks exactly like a refrigerator, more so than anything else of that era, except maybe an International!

And, both Philco-Ford and IH built...refrigerators! I'm guessing some of the design engineers from both companies worked in both sections. Just a guess.

Ha.. That happens alot.. Just look at the PT cruiser and a Chevy HHR.. The same guy that designed the PT left Chrysler.. Then got a job with GM.. Then created the same thing.. I hope he's changed career's by now..

 

Newest find. 59 F100 Custom cab. ORIGINAL paint. 1 owner since 1961.

 

Thats AWESOME!

 

Nice Truck! What is the color on that?

 

Hotrod, that looks like one solid truck! I like it

 

April Green is the color.

 

April green.....is that right? I reall like it.
