ps the turning radius has been cut down quite a bit as tires hit fenders.

Thanks. I was thinkin' someone said that it was a straight axle, but how could it be that low ?

Yeah I can see where tire clerance might be a problem.

Happy Turkey Day

Thanks, Mike

I love these trucks. I've got a '60 with the wrap-around back window that I've had since I was 12. One day I'll get around to building it up into a shop truck.

I'd love to do this to one (from a little thing I did in Classic Trucks mag):

Damn.......I just picked up a '59 F-100 short wide with rear wraparound glass. It was part of a two car package deal. I was going to just turn it fer some cash....but now...............that Bass had to go draw something kool, out of one of them!

Nifty. I'd go w/ bags, personally. That way you could show it or cruise it in a straight line way down low, and actually be able to turn too w/ a little push of the ol' button.

I really like the boxiness of those trucks. They are the antithesis of what everything up until the mid-50's was.

Nope, V8, -it was right on the way it was. My compliments, Bass, the yellow truck rules in every way. So do your drawing skills, my man.
