RodBurNeR Posted July 28, 2007 Posted July 28, 2007 Ok here it is.....i decided to change the wheels and ride height and added the original engine! I was in a hurry and take pics because i need to get to bed this is what it used to look like.
L CUCUY Posted July 29, 2007 Posted July 29, 2007 Vary nice work, What kind of paint did you use? John Vargas
MoparMarc Posted July 29, 2007 Posted July 29, 2007 Nice job Bob. I knew you couldn't leave that engine bay empty LOL.
Fisher61 Posted July 29, 2007 Posted July 29, 2007 Great save, I like the long wheel base on these old Fords better than the short box. I wish there were more Ford pick-up kits out there.
RodBurNeR Posted July 30, 2007 Author Posted July 30, 2007 Vary nice work, What kind of paint did you use?

I knew you couldn't leave that engine bay empty LOL. thanks ! yeah, it didn't seem right without an engine and i have to say the wheels look cool and retro Great save, I like the long wheel base on these old Fords better than the short box. I wish there were more Ford pick-up kits out there. thanks! i do too! long wheelbase IMHO is more attractive and yeah i wish these were still made.
Matt T. Posted July 30, 2007 Posted July 30, 2007 Nice! All it needs now is a vintage front-engine dragster on a trailer out back. Very cool.
bigphoto Posted July 30, 2007 Posted July 30, 2007 Way cool, it looks like it should be hauling a salt racer behind!!

RodBurNeR Posted July 31, 2007 Author Posted July 31, 2007 great work Bob! Looks very much of the early 60's era, both in real cars & modeling influences. Also it was a blast meeting you Sunday at the Mid-America show. thanks buddy! hey it was nice to meet you too! sorry we didn't get to talk more, but i was swamped LOL.... how far do you live from Omaha?
RodBurNeR Posted August 1, 2007 Author Posted August 1, 2007 The final result turned out great. thanks i appreciate it
RodBurNeR Posted August 1, 2007 Author Posted August 1, 2007 I know you were swamped, takings those pics & doing everything else. I'm about an hour SE of Omaha in Shenandoah. ok yeah that is not too far away then. you going to St. Joe in October?
RodBurNeR Posted August 2, 2007 Author Posted August 2, 2007 I'm hoping to. Gotta talk the wife into it first! She has said that we're going to the Omaha contest next February however, as that's on our anniversary weekend & we were going to Brother Sebastians to eat anyway, & do a few more things in Omaha that weekend. So I know I'll make that one. get ahold of me if you head this way.
