[IMG] Selling my unfinished 51/52 Ford pickup project. The evolution of the project can be seen here....
The S10 is a bit wide at the front of the frame, but that can be worked out. I've got mine on an Explorer frame and it works well because of the...
Oneshot - great looking truck, but it's not a 48 through 52 so it's sortof in the wrong post. Great work though !
Nice. I have no idea how you remember to take pictures as you go along. I always look up and it's too late. You get anything done over...
Aren't you glad I talked you out of those 90's caddy jobs you were thinking about ?!
Almost all of them. I have a perfect RUST FREE one. i will never let it go or cut it. The other one I have is rusted in the usual places.. a good...
Sorry all, didn't mean to double up on the post.
So I made it to the Drive INvasion, but only for Sunday and a lotof the cars were only there Saturday - Anyone got pics ? Ether ?
Cool ! Thanks for the info. I'll try and track a copy - shame it won't have the girl in it !
I originally was going to do that with mine but the explorers have a large gap between the floor and the chassis. I am still thinking about using...
Pretty much the same as an Explorer, and I remember seeing those before i moved over here.
It'll be interesting. The Explorer (Gen 2) chassis is a good simple platform with lots of different options and I think is a bit narrower than as...
No, i sure don't. I am not sure what gave you the idea I had, read the post from Abomination that I was quoting, you'll see we're talking about me...
Let me know when you start the thread, I will have some pictures and info to contribute. I did a lot of research before I started.
Why stop at the Ford motor ? I have a 52 sitting on a Ford Explorer chassis (same as some year Rangers, and Mercury Mountaineers) and the fit is...
Opinions are like arseholes, everyone's got one, but nobody really wants to hear from someone elses. :eek: Oh and for the record, I liked it,...
Wow Shifty you've been to the local scrap yard here in Atlanta ! You just described it perfectly.
I finally get to see these ! That is a great looking original truck, I wouldn't touch it at all, if anything drop it a bit via an axle and bit of...
'Did you see what GOD just did to me man !' The Lawyer after said salt shaker of cocaine gets emptied by the obvious breeze blowing through the...
No I already tried that, all of photobucket, and most other pictures hosting sites are blocked to preserve bandwidth. Thanks for trying anyway !
Damnit I hate being at work where pictures are blocked. Anyone feel like emailing me that ? stragedy at gmail
Dude if you HAVE that magazine I would love to buy a copy, and if you won't sell I'll try and find one somewhere else. I have contemplated doing...
Spiderbait actually broke up as a band before that song was a big hit in the states, sad how things go so times. As Psycobilly Boi says it was a...
I just wanted bump this thread up and see how everyones 51/52's are going.
I would sell my left nut to have one of those. An original HK 327 ooooh yeah. I grew up around those and it kills me to think of how many fell by...
I have a roll, but also had trouble getting it, I'll look when I get home and see who i ended up buying from. One place wanted me to buy four...
The F2 and larger models also have different front fenders - the openings are larger to get the bigger wheels under. Hoof on here channelled his 6...
I stopped by today to drop some sheet steel off at Ethers, and it always stuns me what he gets done in a day. :eek: The work looks fantastic up...
E cam might be a bit big for the stock converter... ? Comp Cam extreme energy 270 grinds are supposed to be a good thing. I am told that a...
Now that is good to know. He might have some better pictures and info. Might get on the phone tomorrow. Cheers !
