Factory drag racer

Hey,

Been awhile since I posted. Anyways, I saw Pinks all out where the '62 unibody won and it made me remember of a picture a saw of a factory unibody F100 F/X. If I remember correctly, it was already tubbed, straight headers dumped under the doors, and a race ready 292. Anyone else seen this? Maybe you could correct me if I'm wrong

Is it politically correct to post "factory unibody F100 F/X"? It says in the article that it was "This interesting truck was built by Dearborn Steel Tubing in 1963"

just my thoughts

I've been looking everywhere for photo's / info on this truck! Remembered it from many years ago. I'm looking at possibly buying a 62 Unibody from a friend here in TX, thus trying to find the old pics.

Coolest truck ever in my opinion!

The 1969 Boss 429 was built by a company called "" ( Kar Kraft ) '' .

Just some history.
