move to the farm, back in April 2024.

 

1963 Oldsmobile F-85. The side trim is the Jetfire option. Probably a photo shop from this picture

 

Don'tya think if you're making a pickup that you should have a tailgate?

 

After reading the "next project maybe" thread and seeing this thread right below it, I again had to stop and dream about a project I'd like to do. I want to take an old Ford 4 door like the mentioned thread's 28 and make it a little wider through the cabin and put an older pickup box behind it. It would make a perfect OT 4X4 or possibly a nostalgic could have been if powered by the right engine and drive train. Some of the old aftermarket 4X4 vehicles of the 20s and 30s were really neat.

 

This had a wooden box for a bed at one time.

 

This one looks very good. I thought I saw pictures somewhere of it before it was redone. My Buddy in California has a really great looking one that his friend left to him when he passed, but it's way to new for here.

 

anybody interested in the studebaker elcamino i posted on page 22 of this thread brent from halfass kustoms has been working on it on his youtube channel. he put an engine and tanny in it, made floor pans and trans tunnel. last episode he relocated the master cylinder on it. not sure how much farther he is going on it. he wants to bring his coupe back in that he was building when his other shop burnt down but i think he wants to get it at least yard drivable

 

^^^^^ Photoshop or real? ^^^^^

 

That's a huge compliment! I photoshopped it.
