Looks good both ways.

 

That came out nice! Wish I could have grabbed it.

Better pic of mine....

 

383 chrysler powered. lowered 2.5 inches

 

Dig it...especially the B engine...

 

Nice truck Otto, love the wheelset!

 

Heres the green one I picked up this summer. True 40,000 mile truck. 292 with granny 4 speed. 3 inch dropped axle from Sid, c notch rear, been gettin the patina on it.
Red steelies and wide whites to come. Also a faded sign on the door.

 

Nice, I dig the mopar engine too, I got a plymouth 318 in mine..

 

Thank you! I lucked into those...

 

Man there are some nice trucks here, one day I hope to own one for myself, simple and clean, and boned to the ground, love that look.

 

Saw this one for sale at a used parts yard last week. A "factory built" 1960 crew cab.

 

heres mine just got done lowering it today better pics to come.

 

No bumper? How are you gonna pull a load?
If you cant pull a trailer, its not really a truck.

 

Real trucks don't pull with their bumpers. Hitches should be welded to the frame. Besides, a lot of the trucks shown here don't look like they're intended to do much towing anyway...

 

My 57 lives the life of leisure now. Its working days are over! Ok so I made it work a little a couple weeks ago when I put 1600 miles on it.

Later, Bill

 

Towing? nope...

Hauling? Sure...an ice chest, lawn chairs, and lots of ass!

 

I know it's not a 1-1 truck . Still, I restored it from a kit that was built eons ago . It's a 1960 and it will become partof a 1-25th scale crown Central service station when I'm all said an done :

JUST PICKED UP A NEW SHORT TERM DRIVER 59 F100 YESTERDAY. COULDNT BEAT THE PRICE (2 OLD 70's JAP CYCLE TANKS & A COUPLE OF FENDERS) . NOT TO SHABBY FOR ONE WITH A RUNNING 292/4 SPEED TRUCK THAT ONLY LACKS TIRES TO BE ON THE ROAD........ ILL HAVE TO LOAD SOME PICS TOMORROW.THINKING OF FLIPPING THE FRONT & REAR FOR NOW. JUST UNTIL I CAN SCRATCH TOGETHER THE CHANGE FOR MONOS & A DROP AXLE THOUGH. I KNOW ITLL RIDE LIKE SHIT , BUT HOW MUCH LOWER CAN I EXPECT? WOULD REMOVING SOME LEAFS DROP IT MORE? & HAS ANYONE ELSE FLIPPED THEIR FRONT BEFORE?????

 

very wise choice of "accessories"; packaged very nicely and perfect for the vintage.....fats

Todd

 

we'll actually be using youre thread as a guide this weekend , thanks for the info !

 

After reading though this thread I may have to start looking for a 57......I have always wanted one.

 

How 'bout we wake this f100 link back up !!! Could post 57s and 58s too ? !

 

Another f100 or 2. This white 60 f100 is the next project up at my house.

 

I bought a 60 and so far I have changed out the wheels and tires to make it more drivable. Planning on flipping axles soon. This thread is great.
