Taxdude Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 (edited) This is my 53 Ford pick-up. It is the first model that i had finished in quite a while. I guess that I'll have to change my signature now. Edited December 31, 2009 by Taxdude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldscool Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 Nice truck and good engine choice. First Ardun I ever saw with a high rise manifold like that. oldscool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Modlbldr Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 What a very clean build. I like the seat pattern decal and the beading around the rear fenders. Nice touches. Later- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seeker589 Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 LOVE the stance! You just can't tuck wheels far enough up into the front fenders on those fat trucks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needless to say the intake and the air cleaner were both scratch built. On the intake the hardest part was getting all 8 of the intake runners to line-up correctly on the plenum.

[/quo The background came from a camera shop. It's 20"x30" and it came in either white to blue and white to dark gray. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
