Projects 1936 ford pickup build thread

I really like this truck. Awesome details that I really like. Will we see it at Bonneville this year since your so close?

 

Fantastic job!!!! What a great experience bonding with all the men in the family!!!!

On a different note-
Opinions are like assholes, ............. well you know the rest of that saying! Hot-rodding is all about expressing yourself and creating something YOU love. Why others have to shit on people with their stupid opinions is beyond me. Hell YES I'm jealous that I'm not yet capable of this level of fabrication but I should never rain on your parade because of it!

Keep up the great work, I look forward to your future projects!

 

That thing is freaking awesome!
I guess it's time for me to sell my pile of junk now...
There is now way I can keep up with you guys!

Keep up the good work!

 

good job on the truck the red sort of reminds me of international farm tractor color red nice

 

Thanks for all the kind words, It will absolutely be at Bonneville.

 

Wowee..me like a lot.

 

Thanks to the hamb members for thier post and ideas. I'ts been one of the highlites of my life to build projects like this with my father,son, & friends.
We learn so much on each build, were getting ready to start the next.

 

Very nice...more encouragement to get my ass in gear with mine.

 

Well done, you nailed it!

 

ya know, if everyone followed the rules, some of the coolest stuff would have never been built. nice hot rod.

 

Nice work!

 

I absolutly LOVE this truck. You did an AMAZING job! Thanks for sharing!

 

Its not that "all post 35 fenderless pick~up's" are wrong. I think its about proportion, overall stance, style, and having the right ingredients ! Its real easy to remove fenders from any Pick~up, throw on a set of over wide radials on the rear, a SBC with gold anodized Moroso valve covers , a 70's/80's Velocity stack , then call it the day. The builder of this, however , took his time, and built a well executed Hot Rod. Thats my 2 cents.

 

Fabulous!! NOW, I gotta get my ass in gear!!
Charlie!!

 

Nice truck.I usually don't like fenderless 35-36 trucks.You nailed it.

 

looks good man.

 

Absolutly one fine job!!!

 

Wow just wow, i dig it!!

 

Is that a '36 frame, and did you reshape the rear, or fab new rails? I love all the details, like the spare tire, tank, and battery box, and still some room for hauling beer and an overnight bag. I'd like to see finished pics inside the bed.

 

Very tasty!

 

Its actually a 38 Mercury car frame with the ass end cut and kicked up.

 

Is there such thing as a 38mercury?do you mean 39?

 

How have i've not seen this thread before?!? that truck is spot on! nice work.

 

I like the color on the truck

 

Inspiring metal work. You should be proud. Ride on....

 

Great looking truck -- you absolutely nailed it!
Thanks for taking the time to post the photos and description.

Had this one bookmarked but never posted. Did you post that Maroon paint color? If so I missed it.

 

Very nicely done. Excellent craftsmanship, attention to detail. And the memories made with the family and friends are the best part of the whole deal, than can never be sold, traded, or outdated. Congratulations. I am more jealous of the time spent working on it with the fam than anything else.

Hows the leg room? Looks killer! I built one of these a while ago and with the swoopy lines of the bottom of the cab, it was a lot harder than you made it look to make everything line up, great job.

 

what are you running for wheels/tires
