426 pack Posted October 22, 2019 Posted October 22, 2019 I just got one of the new 66 Ford f100’s. Now this is my first time doing a slammed pickup so I might not be doing everything perfect. I am using the stock frame that I have heavily modified with a revell Ford svt lighting front suspension, a giant C notch in the rear and I will do a Ford 9” and engine from the revell nascar. Comments welcome.
stitchdup Posted October 22, 2019 Posted October 22, 2019 Cool truck, the plan sounds great and the stance looks sweet already
Koellefornia Kid Posted October 22, 2019 Posted October 22, 2019 Just the right stance for this truck! I´ll keep an eye on that!
misterNNL Posted October 22, 2019 Posted October 22, 2019 Be sure to watch that front tire clearance under the hood.:)
espo Posted October 23, 2019 Posted October 23, 2019 I'd say you're doing the suspension just fine. Looks almost like an air suspension system that's aired down. Might have a hard time turning a corner the way it sits right now. I like the way you grafted the front suspension in.
426 pack Posted October 28, 2019 Author Posted October 28, 2019 Thanks guys. I have painted the frame and the motor. Now I am deciding on air cleaner and paint colour and would like your guys opinion. I was thinking of maybe a turquoise colour like this. Air cleaner #1 (It came in the 66 kit) Air cleaner #2 (from a 302) Air cleaner #3 (from a 390) Air cleaner #4
Lordmodelbuilder Posted October 29, 2019 Posted October 29, 2019 I like your color chose. I like #4 for the air cleaner. It's gonna flow more air in real life.
gotnitro? Posted October 29, 2019 Posted October 29, 2019 Perfect stance , everything flows nice ! Really like air cleaner 4
Jantrix Posted October 29, 2019 Posted October 29, 2019 Question. If you are going to take them time to do custom work, and add detail, why wouldn't you take the time to make the work clean? A couple of sanding sticks from the nail care area of the drug store and five minutes would have made that frame alteration look real slick.
Stephen82kck Posted November 6, 2019 Posted November 6, 2019 How did you go about doing the frame notching?

Otherwise the build is looking good
