Features 57-60 ford truck pics????

I wondered how the 87-96 F series mirrors would look on one, not that bad really.

 

there coming off,

 

That's what I figured, I just always thought they'd look really terrible, but this is tolerable as far as that sort of thing goes.

 

That 57 f100 grill sure looks nice. Very nice truck. Just brought this home to start, oh boy ? Nice original paint and wanted a black one. Definitely going to need some elbow grease. Lets keep the pics of f100 s coming even if a repeat once in a while.

 

your truck looks in nice shape to bad the grill is damaged, whats your plans for it?

 

My 1957 Chero

 

Plan to set it up similar to the white 59. Probably go straight axle again. I have a 292 that I would like to hook up to a 4 spd so I can have a little fun. Dress the motor up a bit. Merc valve covers ....... Not sure on the wheels. White truck shows I am not even sure of the wheels on it, but gives a couple of looks that I like. Clean up, rub out and decide whether to do some body work on the bad spots or leave em. Have a grille and an early model and late model front bumper. Will definitely go to the 50 pontiac tail lights. Sometime this year. Would dig a gasser, but not for this truck, rather use one a little more beat up.

 

sounds good.

 

Just rubbed the drivers side for a few minutes to see how it looked. Overall pretty straight and much paint still there to rub. Lots to do.

 

You should have let me finish cleaning out the cab.........^^^^^^^^^

 

cleaned up the interior a bit. discovered the floors were great. bought by viewing pics only as cab was filled with junk, price was right and got lucky !!

 

Just a ? for all you 57-60 ford truck guys. I am looking at a 59 F 100 3spd with a Y block Will a 302 bolt to the 3spd trans? Not a Ford guy... yet.

Heres a pic of my Favorite Truck ever!

Thanks Jeff

 

Some killer trucks in this thread.

I just got this Fridge Crew yesterday. It came with a '60 Mercury 1/2ton too.
Will get some better pics when we pick it up.

New 59 Custom cab with original paint project from Oregon. Y-block with 4 speed. Been sitting since 2001. Checked all the fluids. (Oil was clean. Still had antifreeze in the radiator.) We put a battery in it cranked it over to get the oil pressure up. Sprayed start fluid down the carb. After 5-6 cranks it started and the idle evened out. We let it run for a good 20 minutes. Never got hot.

 

Nice!

 

Our latest addition to the family.... '57 Ford. Alot to do, but I have nearly everything to finish it. Except maybe the motivation.

 

I guess I should add a few.

 

Here's mine. Ok price. Picked it up in August, just now got it running. Still needs brakes gone through and floors patched. Got a nice grill for it and much better doors (with glass) Hope to be driving it this summer.

 

Here is mine I just got it

 

Here are some udated pics of my 58 turned 57

 

Doing surgery on my 57 panel this weekend. Rust repair in a new way. Pictures very soon.

 

Thats bad ass!

 

I agree!!!

 

sold my '60 like a complete jerk, missed it, so I picked up this little beauty in Oakland.

 

Still have a loooong way to go, but one bolt at a time is my philosophy...

 

Here is my 57 I just bought. It has a 351c and a c6. Chevelle front clip and axle flipped and frame notched. I have made a few subtle changes to it since I bought it. I removed the rear bumper! Other than that I've driving the wheels off of it. It's my daily driver and I love it.

 

x3!!!!!! so thats what they look like with the big ones!
