This I rode behind today.. cool car + FARM Truck pics.
« on: September 12, 2017, 06:30:07 PM »
I was riding behind it it has a new motor in it LS1 I think..
 It lives nearby..

They even look good upside down .. I think the red interior color is the same as my 62 Bubbletop had.

 I was at a guy's shop today. SAW A PATINA  old Ford truck like 63 ish, sorta like Ofreens.
 It had some old name on the doors that they managed To rescue and remove the paintover.
 Huge freaking turbo and intercooler  big tubs, and slicks  at first glance its farm truck al the way..
 They had it out at a fewc1/8 mile tracks,  ran 5.6 ish .....so looks like high 7,s or 8 flat in the quarter.,
 Ohhhhhh Yyyyeeeaaahhhhhhhhh !    !
 Will try to get pics later ... the semi hauler and trailer is pretty cool too..

There is a guy who lives at the entrance to my brother's neighborhood who restores/rebuilds/mods old trucks that are pretty good sized, think medium sized delivery truck out of 40s to 60s.  It is a snub nosed design and I haven't a clue what it is.  They are out of his garage and sit outside while in progress.  He finished one about a year ago and not long after it was done he picked up an identical looking project truck and the 1 st truck I haven't seen since, he may have sold it or is storing it.
Very good friend's dad in north central Ohio has a '48 Diamond T truck he restored and it looks as if it rolled off the showroom floor with an upgraded/updated interior as far as materials go.  The photos of his bright red truck are quite gorgeous.  His dad did the entire truck except for paint and interior upholstrery work and of course the chrome, rebuilding the motor, tranny, and rear axles himself.  He quite enjoys it and it is worth a very pretty penny while his investment in the restoration was far below its value.
