my current project a collection of parts from a whole bunch of trucks. Though not showing in this picture the truck is now ready for paint. And thank God the snow is gone.

It started with this cab
|
It took the cab 55 years to save all these dents and dings
|
|
Power will be from a La 318 couldn't find anywhere else for the battery

This project has taught me to have a little more respect for the engineers in detroit
|
Seats are From an 84 baby New Yorker.. Corintian leather and both 6 way power. Total cost to me zero

|
another friend donated a fuel tank from a fork lift. It's good to have friends
|
Guess where the subframe and other goodies came from. It was a shame to cut the car up but at least this way part of it lives on
|
On warm winter days I work outside. NOT. No thats not snow in the bed
|
|
|
|
However a set of points and a condenser and it fired right up
|
|
So now I have this big truck and have no idea what to do with it. Anybody got any ideas??
|
It runs and drives and is almost rust free. would be a sin to part it out
|
This is my buddy that owns the shop the winter pictures were taken at. Can you guess his nickname???
|
|
Bought this rust free 60 from the kid that owns the mint 72 maverick beside it
|
I have traded this truck for a are you ready 77 Matador Coupe.
|
I did a little work on it last year but it's got a ways to go yet
