[Lanny Haas]

did a little work on the 50 ford. reworked the front end to match the truck im building

using a pattern I cut out the grill opening

used the 57 Ford custom head lights, and will use the custom tail lights too

[Lanny Haas]

starting on this again. was sideline buy other projects, but now time to finish, at least the truck


the more I look at this bed the more I didnt like it, It was wood and brass strips glued to a peice of sheet plastic,
so I had a better idea.


smaller brass strips and1/23" wood. this is a rough fit, will polish the brass and finish the wood.

using brass square tubing for cross rails and even smaller ones for the bed rails

And now looking from the underside, it look like the way a real truck would look.



going to lay this thing on the ground when its all done

This is really a good looking truck, I kinda like the way it looks in the last pic, well aged and used... Great work so far...
