My F-5 is Done!

Of course, a few minor things here and there, namely the PT wood bed for the dump body. I have all the steel stakes too. but it's on the road!

That's the '48 "Glade Green" with the Tucson Tan Grille.
Heading to the Brooklyn CT truck show tomorrow, Hmmm might put a "For Sale" sign in it.
Let's see what do you think the price should be??
Those solid rims, radials and Eaton 2-sp got to be worth simthin'

What did you end up doing for wheels? I've got to look into something for my F6.

Fantastic !

You don't often hear the word "Done" in our world. Great Job and an inspiration to those of us that are mid-thrash......

It can be finished !

That looks mighty fine! I've wished that was a stock color for mine ever since the first time I saw your truck.
