Drago Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 No. This is produced by Motor City Resin Casters, owned by Jeff Ballard. Jeff is a fantastic guy and an EXCELLENT caster- he's on-par with Don Holthaus and the other leading casters. I've met him several times at shows, got to know him when MCM had a chat-room and have purchased several of his products. All have met or exceeded my expectations. His stuff is good enough that other than perhaps being a hair lighter, you cannot tell the difference between his wares and an injection-molded part. Charlie Larkin WOW!!! Thanks Charlie. I've done business with Jeff before.. You are totally right! He runs one of the best resin companies that provide us great gods. No problem at all!!! Thanks for the info... ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabrux Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Another fabulous looking kit from my favourite style of F-series pickup... From my understanding of this style of truck, the bed as depicted was available from start of production in '61 with the unibody; the '57-'60 bed was used for 4x4 applications. Unibodies were only from '61-'63, the bed above was '61-'66 and I think the '57-'60 bed was eventually phased out on 4x4s. The bed I like the most, however, is the one used in Argentina-produced trucks. They only had short beds and it used the same panels as the unibody, only it was a separate bed.

Those are VERY cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabrux Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 After combing through brochures for '61-'66 F-series, I can now see that the separate-bed trucks used the same bed from '57-'63. Brochures for the F-series for '64 proclaim a new body with single-hand tailgate latch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
