Probably a little narrow for the F-100, but the price is certainly right...

Motor and tranny in, had bro Mike at cornfield customs make me some brackets....will have it running, by new year, not done, but running...also scored a un-chopped cab in case I want to un-chop this one, got the motor and tranny for some labor and $50 bux, with a Alum intake....got the seat, a nice one for 75 bux....got front fenders sanded and primed black as well, been to darn cold to paint...

Just my .02 ditch the whacked cab and put the unchopped on there.. The one that is on the truck has kept several people from jumping on that truck.. Like i said my.02 and opinions are like a#%holes...

that will happen last, thinking of having a visor made to hide the windsheild...kinda like this....if not, spring time job....

Toss on the visor and save yourself some work unless you really like the truck. If not we could do a work session on how to un~chop a truck

....

Would be the 1st time I un-FOXTROTED something

I see that the ads are missing from a few sites it was on.
Anything new news on this old truck?

Just finishing up on getting the motor running, and putting the front end on right, had Mike at Cornfield Customs make some brackets...and if it EVER warms back up...I will lay down the Black paint, then the window man......

I am not sure if you guys have noticed when you try to sell something, that with this age of email, and internet, people with say and offer stuff they wouldn't in person, the amount of BS on here is huge...I understand the art of give and take, but dang, people ask, 1st thing....what's the least you'll take....then I just turn it around, well, what's the most you'll pay??? Maybe I getting old, and don't care if I sell anything anymore, sometimes it don't seem like its worth the effort...I guess that's how you end up with more than 1 car....Hope EVERYBODY had a GREAT Christmas...I hope to pull off the Chev to Austin swap this Thursday...anybody up for a mini road trip????
