It has been a little over a year and I have collected all of the missing parts. I started tearing down the truck last month. [IMG] The nice...
Hmm, cant' clear the transmission on the power wagon chassis, no problem, just cut the firewall out. [IMG] 360 wont fit, screw it, cut the cross...
as long as it hits the road one way or another under its own power I will be happy.
all in all I have owned about 4 or 5 of these trucks, but always something came up and had to sell them before I got to work on them, this one...
sadly the 360 was in the charger when it was totaled and then pulled and put in my cousins duster that he sold.
My thoughts exactly. If you were keeping it then I would undercoat it, that's what I am going to do to my 50 after I get the floors finished. The...
no, this front axle is a tube type axle with aftermarket springs and disc brakes. The original axle was tossed years ago when the aspen front end...
yes the aspen clip was a cross member add on, my uncle made his own brackets and welded them to the frame, he didn't measure twice and just welded...
thanks the frames not toast per say, it has been cut several times. I am thinking of just boxing it and putting a Mustang II under the front,...
This truck and I have a history. My uncles father bought it brand new in 1950. My father and my uncle used to cruise this truck when they were in...

I know it's not a big deal to some guys but I decoded the Vin on my 62 F100. I have no problem decoding o/t vins but this was my first try on an...
Im going to drive the wheels off the F100, pretty much a shake down of everything I did this week on it.
I say this a lot in the shop "Precision sledge hammer modifications may be necessary" When I used to work for GM "Tight is tight, too tight is two...
At the Turlock swap meet back in January a fellow was selling his 40 project that ran with a sbc and no interior that was in primer for 6,500
I have my camera set up to take them that size, I can't remember what the setting is at the moment. Nice score by the way.
Does this count, since I did find it in a field? [IMG]
Here is one I completed last month. Built from the AMT Diamond in the Rough kit [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]
Thanks, I will tell you this, it was scary as hell driving the thing home. I had to two foot drive it to keep it running. It would die when you...
Thanks, my plans are basically clay bar the hell out of it to bring back the paint and make a wooden push bar for it. I want it to resemble a push...
Found this cheap and I needed a truck a 62 F100 Runs and drives...and sometimes stops. The carb needed a rebuild so I took it to a buddies house,...
For me the build is never finished.
