2/16/14 RIDE OF THE WEEK!

Ride of the Week honors for the week of February 16th goes to user ceetwarrior and his 1967 Ford F100.

This is how the truck started out...




...and this is how it looks now!




The Tuxedo - I bought her for $400 in 2003. This build is my first major restore project.

I decided to paint her something different, but old school. I went with a Prom black/white & classy theme. So the truck soon became known as "Tux" and the hard work began. April came and it was not yet done. Bedless, we drove her anyhow. My Senior prom was great. I had a blast and driving Tux was fun. Love ya Mal! - 2004 Prom 2006 was great too!
Since the truck is aptly named "The Tux" I had to include a prom pic, right?



According to this recent thread, a new Tremec has been installed in this fabulous looking truck!

Love the truck, especially love the wheel, caps and tire combo. Run the same wheels on my 86.

Sweet ride young man. I had a 67 that I drove for 20 years. Now I have another sitting out back waiting for a resto. I like your style and your truck, and your lady friend looks as good as the 67! Thanks for sharing.

That's a real truck right there. I love the color combo. No matter the year, there is no such thing as an ugly ford.
