E St. Kruiser50 Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 (edited) Hey 3Men I like your idea's and your "Artistry". I like trucks, and the one you've chosen is very cool I enjoy using lot's of color. I built this 6 or 7 years ago, and this '50 of mine is still one of my fav's. Good luck on choosing your color combo - Dave Edited August 29, 2008 by Treehugger Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eshaver Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 Mike I own and have restored a couple of Real 53 Ford trucks. First I dont know why you cant have a car hauler . Ford did offer an extended chassis for the F-300 series. It took the 5 lug one ton Budd wheels and they were powered by either the Big Lincon " E- L Series Flat head s or the new Y block engine that you would see in the Thunderbird. I beleive if you take the pieces from the Model King Racers Wedge, you should be able to make you're dream come true. I might add, very nice art there too. Keep us inquiring minds posted !

Casey429 Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 You could also try the fuel injected 460 from the Monogram '89 F-350 duallie. Probably a tight squeeze, but its just a matter of some plastic massaging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
