Scott,
I agree, I like the styling of the ribbed and rolled edges. While you are cutting and modifying it you could add a Ford script to it similar to what Jolly Roger Joe did to his bed.

Got the flatbed narrowed 8" and shortened 2 feet. What a chore......but it's bolted down and looks pretty good. Still lots to do...

I've been working on the gas hole/filler pipe. I decided to recess it into the side rail for a cleaner look. Easy right? A week later it's almost done....

I made a flip up door to hide it....

Lousy pics.....

 

Cool idea for the filler pipe cover. You do good work Scott!

 

Scott I've been waiting anxiously for my weekly fix of this thread. I know you will always do something for me to get excited over. You've done it again great idea on the door.

 

Nice job on the fuel door. The bed looks good on there, good dimensions.


Keep after it, you'll be cruising in no time

I 2nd that!

 

that will be one amazing truck, nice work.

 

Very cool fuel door and the bed looks great. You continue to amaze me.

 

always enjoy checking in on your progress. Such nice work.

 

Not much happening on this lately......no extra time. I did get the mud flaps and tail lights installed, and got my license plates.
Still needs the bed wood, and a front bumper, etc, etc.

snapped a pic I thought was cool..................

 

I like that picture.

 

Looks great!

 

I like that picture but I really like your trucks!

 

Been working on the front bumper, decided to use the '49 Plymouth one I had.
I had to add 11" to the center, but that part will be hidden by the license plate. Just mocked up for now, still needs more welding and I need to make some brackets.
I think this might work....

 

Scott,
That bumper fits like it was made for your truck-and it partially was, congrats!
