'53 Ford F150 w/modern Mustang stuff...

[curt raitz]

ya take an old Ford pick'em up truck, stick some modern Mustang goodies in it...

paint it with "Scalefinishes" Ferrari F1'08 Red...

and it can come out looking like this:

didn't feel like doing a wood bed, so went with a sheet of stainless tread-plate

thanx for lookin'...

Nice pickup, Curt. Fords always look good in red. The treadplate is a unique touch.

[cobraman]

I could take those items but doubt I would come up with a model as nice as yours. Very nice work.

[JasonFL]

Very clean, nice build.

[camaroman]

Nice job Curt!!! Looks Very sharp!

I have two in my stash.

One to replicate my Dad's old 1:1 from back in the day. Bought from the local 'shine runner. Motivation by 312 from his transport car, after it was totaled .

The other is for me, as if it was still around and unlimited funds were available. I plan on a Revell 302 V-8 borrowed from a 3 window coupe kit. Sort of a shop truck in progess build...

[TooOld]

That is nice ! It really looks good in red .

[Kustom Rodder]

I like it nice job !

Looks great,where's the gas cap though?Just thought I would remind you as I did the same thing to on a 72 chevy.

[curt raitz]

forgot to include this photo...

gives a nice look at how the Mustang front clip works with the truck chassis

gas cap would have to be behind the "cable operated flip door on lower left rear corner of cab"...yeah that's were it's at

[Terry Sumner]

[Sixties Sam]

Oh, man, that's nice! I like those 53's, and this one is just about the best looking one I've seen! The red is perfect for it. Nice choice of wheels, too! Great work!
