Projects '34 Ford Truck, Hay Hauler to Hot Rod(Done!)

that's one cool ride!

highest respect for your fabbing skills - can't wait to see the next updates

 

Still gettin' 'er leveled out. Prime, sand, ....prime sand. Lookin' good though, so it's encouraging.




Yup, I was there damn it! No finger prints and all. But, gotta give a shout out to the boys in the shop. I wouldn't have gotten through it without 'em. It's a pain it the ass, but worth the time.

 

Great progress!
This is going to come together quite nicely.

 

Some bed and other stuff too. Man, the number of pieces seem to grow when you start gettin' 'em ready for the good stuff.

 

3dnsouth: great fab work, you have a good eye. You should be proud..
Super Build, great post... Thanks for sharing..

 

Hell, let's get on to some color!! I went with House of Kolor Solar Gold and a Wimbledon white. Also, going with red wheels and engine. Running full Moon disc on the wheels so you don't see much of the red of wheels, just kind of a red pinstripe around the outside. We did the chassis stuff first, then the cab and bed in another marathon session.




If I had it to do over again, I probably would not have gone with a metallic. It was a pain, but Chad hung with it and knocked it outta the park.

 

Here are some wheel pictures, so you get the idea. A LOT of people were like, 'WHAT, red wheels on gold truck?!?...git out'. Well that's what I wanted damn it. Kind of the late 50's style, maybe early 60's. I thought they looked good, damn the nay sayers right?



A lot of trouble, but worth it, was two-toning the front axle. Turned out great.





The pictures don't do the Solar Gold justice. There is a ton of metallic in there, looks great. Every time I take a picture, it looks like a different color. Point n' shoot camera, guess that's whatcha get.

 

Got the chassis back to my shop and did more assembly. Love it when a plan comes together. I'm tellin' ya, the gold looks better than the pictures.








Comin' along. It kind of nerve racking being careful around the new paint. Can't be just flingin' stuff on and off or droppin' tools now.

 

Holy Shit this is bad ass! Great color choices on the frame.

 

Puttin' a little more of the final stuff on. It's good to see it comin' together.





I used a Brookeville grill and shell. OTB helped me out with some new rings for some original old Guides I had. Feelin' lucky to get this far. It's enjoyable workin' on it.

 

Wow, you are making a super job, That pic of the frame with the wheels on looks great reminds me of my 35 Ford project. Sure Wish I could start rebuilding another old Ford . I look forward to your final pics.......Cheer`s Bri

 

I have to leave off with a couple more chassis shots, gotta get off this computer and get something done. Thanks a ton for the kind comments fellas. I'm glad y'all approve, it means a lot. Man, you work by yourself in the shop day after day, ya just hope ya don't loose sight. It's been time consuming, but enjoyable at the same time.



Stay tuned. We'll get the cab and bed mated up to this thing!!!

 

its coming out very nice great metal work !

 

Awesome rake to that chassis!

The chassis detailing is beautiful! Gives me some ideas as to how I want to paint mine. Very nice work all around.

 

Cant wait to see the finished product!! The moons are perfect for this truck!!

 

This is bad ass! Great job.

 

Awesome, waiting anxiously for the painted body!

 

Awesome colors......

 

I think the Gold with red is spot on AWESOME !!!

 

Now that looks delicious.
Good luck.Have fun.Be safe.

Good god! That is some great work! Nice job!!

 

Damn nice truck

 

love this.... very nice clean work... great colors... looking for ward to more.....

 

great work, love the colors and stance

 

I swear, I think I just got my first truck boner....I like trucks, but this one is beyond cool.....

 

Beautiful work. It almost seems a shame to cover such a well built and detailed chassis up with a body. Really impressed with your skills and choice of colors. Can't wait to see it all in one piece.

 

Man the colors look killer! The red wheels were definitely the right choice! Looking forward to seeing it all together.

 

Good call on the colors. Wondermus detail werk too!!!! Can't wait to see the cab on the frame.

 

Updates?
