Another 50 Ford F-1

[Taxdude]

Since F-1 are popping up all over i thought that I would share an older build of my F-1.

The grill is made from Aluminum tubing. I made a buck in order to get all of the bars to bend

the same amount. The Body has been cleaned up and the hood to cowl issue has been addressed.

The chassis was sub-framed in order to get the front end down. In the bed I had to make small wheel

tubs in order to get the tires to fit. I also use very thin maple planking for the bed.

And the interior before it was buttoned up. The seat is a cut down unit from some pick-up

kit, can't remember which one. The dash was smoothed and new gauges were installed.

The engine is a GM crate motor cleaned up and installed

Some in progress shot can be seen here.

Nice looking truck you have . Now days there is no excuse to use a chevy motor in a Ford. I just get sick of seeing this all the time. I will never understand why people still do it. Must be because chevy makes a truck that is lousy an worthless.
