    Great lookn' pickemup, in both its forms. Kind of reminds me of the old Porter muffler truck,in some ways.

    I'm not much of a custom fan, and I don't understand custom trucks at all, but 105 in an F-100 is pretty cool. I'm not sure I would do that even when I was 18.
    I'd like to see more of that T roadster on the cover. Is that a 4 banger in it?

    A great Kustom PU! I have nevr seen louvers on the SIDE of a hood before. I love hood louvers, and appreciate the uniqueness of that job. I will keep it in my memory bank.

    Love this truck. Always have. Skirts can work on a truck as this one proves.
    This truck the Chuck Porter truck and especially the Jack Rushton truck have all bee the inspiration for my current custom truck build.
    Here are a couple of pics.

    Love both versions of that truck! Best feature is the way they laid the windshield back – very slick!

  10. Man does that second one look sinister. Don't want that one in the rear view mirror bearing down on ya. Looks pissed off.

    I dig the first version because it's not as radical as the 2nd version and it has a cleaner, simpler look.

    this has been a dream truck of mine since I was 9 years old, I am now 71. I acquired it from Beverly Cozzitorto in September of this year. Nick's grandson Anthony and my grandson went to school together and that is how the connection came about. I told Anthony how I always loved that truck. I then called Gene Winfield and took it to his open house. I am now gathering parts. I have the engine, transmission and now I'm trying to get the chassis together. i'm very excited and hope to have Gene paint the truck.

    I know this is all about the truck, but I couldn't help notice the T roadster!! Both trucks are cool, the first version, nice and the second version just nasty.
