I saw a '57 truck rendering which still had a '56 "mono-brow" (built-in visor).

 

Thanks. This link led me to this link.

i dont know if anybody has seen the official ford picture site. A lot of cool pictures even though they are pretty expensive.

I've seen a lot of those posted before. Now I know where folks found them. Thanks for posting.

 

My wife came down stairs and saw me looking at all those trucks. She told me I was staring at the screen drooling. I then got told "no you can't have anymore till you fix what you have.

 

how about this for a cool picture!

Very cool.....

 

Thanks Abe! That was fun, especially since the March Meet was here this weekend.

 

I have seen this pic before (from the above link) where the 56 two-tone pickup is air born. The line up of 56 trucks behind it is neat to see. If you look way in the background behind the track you will see another long line of vehicles.

This Ford site is very fun and informative to look at. For us stockers it gives us a good idea what these trucks looked like when they left the factory. You have to be careful as some are prototypes, pre-production, and may have a few things that are not as they were in production. One example: a 1953 truck with a Ford script tailgate. Or the 53 that had stainless hubcaps and not painted.

 

Reminds me of that video of the drunk fool in his Raptor...

If I had $350 falling out of my butt I might be tempted to get a mural of some of those.

 

wow....i looked at every one of those pix. some i've seen before but all together its terrific. i'm an old ford truck guy but that 93 juke box pick up was wild! it really relights my fire about our hobby. very enjoyable. my next project will be , if i can find a good enuff frame and body, is an econoline pick up...lowered w/ a sbf and auto......there i go again
