    Well, I don't own an old truck at the present time.

    However, back in my younger years I used to impress the ladies with my charcoal drawings of vintage Ford F-150s...........













    I was a pick up artist

    Not mine, but I did get the last look at it before my cuz sold a couple years back. I'm the geeky 16 year old that painted it a zillion years ago at minute 1:49. Made him promise he offer it to me first, but I didn't have the room, or the time it deserved when he was ready to sell.



    I did end up with a black Chevy eventually, and mine has much needed a/c
    It sucks to get old

    Nice truck you found Thornton! They offer plenty of aftermarket parts to make it all Ford drive train if the 283 is not enough for you.

    Nice pants, fortunately there are no photos of me with my corduroy bell bottoms and fringed suede leather boots and jacket...but there is one of me with my turtle neck sweater that I will have to burn now that I think about it.

    Very nice work, that wood pops out for sure! I agree with iron, nice stable :-). Here's my 52 Ford. Yep you read correctly, Ford Canada assembled 2135 of these based on Willys stampings for the Canadian Military in 52.

    That's nice to hear, so now when are you going to put the right engine in it?
