Got my order Al looks excellent in detail can’t wait to start building it… stayed within lead times and shipping was fast! Thanks I’ll be ordering in the future!

Rough mockup but this is close gonna be a pontiac redneck style lol

Got undercarriage painted still gonna add a coat or two to it but it’s making some progress

Just made a purchase for a couple of seats a 73 f100 grill and a coyote motor looking forward to seeing them in person! add the free shipping is awesome

That’s a nice truck my first one was a 2wd version 96 model… it turned into an accordion when I was hit by a drunk

This thing is cool look forward to the finished product

Awesome build so far I love these old cars

Got suspension figured out now just bracing it up a bit… I need to quit getting too excited with paint before figuring out things… noob stuff

My son was given a 79 Pontiac firebird kit and he had no interest in it so I found it a few years later and well I’m going to do a little 4x4 thing lol

Meh if it shuts it shuts 😂😂

That’s cool!! I’d drive the 1:1 😂 and pull the 1:1 version of my lightning I’m building

That frame work is sick bro… the engine fits pretty well too

Thanks man I’m learning from mistakes 😂😂

Thanks man I’m figuring it out I’ve learned quite a bit from this truck so I won’t have to redo like I have lol

Got the frame put together still needs some paint work but got everything mocked up and started cutting out for trans tunnel and finished cutting out the bed for the fuel cell pretty decent progress today

I also ordered my frame kit from iceman and all I have to say is ditto…awesome product

Hey Pat got any updates? 👀👀 this is a super cool build and I’m watching your frame building for educational purposes lol 😂

Oh snap learned something new I always thought they as same length bed thanks man!!!

You mean the little box on the side of the passenger bed? I plan to do away with that using putty and a little sanding… I haven’t had the chance to really dig in and check out the parts though does it actually have a box in it or just the door on the bed side? I build at my brothers house so the kit isn’t accessible at the moment and thanks for that site I’ll be ordering from them regardless a few things I want 😂😂

Yessir 2wd for me

😍😍 looks awesome perfect for the 2000s decade

Cool concept

This a beautiful build thanks for sharing the process took a few notes myself!

Yay for an answer I didn’t have to ask 😂😂😂

For me, as far as the interior goes, I’ve always been a fan of keeping the “work truck” style that they used back then… so when I think of custom I try to keep that feel… which is why as a ford guy I like to think, ok… if the king ranch was made in 50s 60s 70s what would that be like? Because they actually worked trucks back, then so what would I like to have in the truck if I drove it for the truck itself not a $80,000-$100000 status symbol that the driver thinks is necessary…For old schools I like to keep them basic as possible… just my.02 the seat is the centerpoint and everything else should blend around it… I like a lot of neutral colors and splashes of colors
