1936 Ford super deluxe pkp I've been building

Here's my 40 pkp disguised as a 1936 Ford Super Deluxe pickup. Front clip, dash, and rear taillights from a 36 Ford car. 350/350 drive train in a Fatman chassis. Now working to put 36 car rear bumpers on it. Hope to get around to putting glass in the doors before York! Chopped 40 pkp in background is mine as well and runs SBF and C4. Enjoy.

 

cool

 

Very cool

Looks great, love the 40 too, I've always wanted one of those.

 

Looks great!

 

Lookin pretty cool....any more pics?

 

lookin good , got any pics of the grafting process?

 

sweet.

 

Now that's different. Nice truck.

 

I'll have to select and upload a few pics from the build. Don't want to overwhelm with details but want to share most of what happened. Basically I bolted the 36 front end on the chassis and then slid the cab forward until the side of the stock 36 hood hit the body line on the cowl. Then I recontoured the side of the cowl to accomodate the 36 hood side panels and also extended the side of the cowl downward to fill the gap to the fenders. The top of the hood had to be recontoured to fit the stock pkp cowl. I'll work on some pics and upload them later. Thanks for the kind words on the project and I appreciate the interest. Al

 

That kicks ass.

I love mixing and matching ford body parts.

Looks great, nice work, keep going.

 

That is so cool I saw someone do that with a early 40's ford truck and car it turned out great. Nice collection you got going there.

 

Very slick. Also, the chop on the 40 looks great from what I can see...nicest one I recall seeing, as far as proportions

 

Neat job! If I had a chance to do something like that, I'd try a 35 passenger grille! I'm surprise we don't see more of this kind of mod... Gary

 

Like it alot better than the one Henry made. Slick!

 

Nice job, my dad has always wanted to do that, car front on pickup.

 

Here are some early pics of the conversion to a 36 front end.
Hopefully you can see enough to figure out how it was done.
Time, patience, and alot of LUCK are essential.
Thanks again for the feedback. Al

 

That is too cool! Is that a 40 bed also?

 

The 1940 bed was new from Mack Hils but sat for a long time. Rear fenders are 40 pkp but I modified 36 coupe taillight stands to fit and revised filler tube to use the stock 36 filler location via the taillight stand.

 

Very cool! Henry should have done that.

 

WOW! Impresive, the cowl rework didn't look to be to involved it all looks great together.

 

Very nice. Looks natural.

 

Mounted tailgate over weekend and got pipes finished today to bumper. Also drove home in rain for first time. Windshield leaks some but dang back window nearly gave me a bath! Will add pics when weather clears. Working Al

 

These pics show the "trunk" storage area I'm building in the rear of the truck bed. Might get someone else to thinking. Al

 

I don't like it!! I love it!! Very cool and looks like very nice work. Really a hip idea. ATTA BOY ~Sololobo~
