Hey guys, new to the board but not to Ford trucks.

I came across this 67 F100 on Craigslist and couldn't pass it up.

After watching a couple of episodes of Fast N Loud, I decided to create a truck with the best of both worlds. The classic lines of the 67-72 truck with the engine, transmission and suspension of a ~40 year newer vehicle.

I've got a lot of work done so far, but here are a couple of of pics when it first arrived at my shop:

 

Welcome to the forums and good luck with the build.
We like lots of pics so keep them coming.
But remember in the spirit of Fast N Loud you only have a week to build it and then you have to sell it.

 

hi wondering if u swaped the front housing for anything different like they did on fast n loud im doin a 68

Here are some more pics of the front suspension, wheels and sheet metal installed for mock up:







And here is how it sits right now:

 

More pics of the hood after stripping off 5 layers of paint, cutting and welding in a patch for a big hole near the back edge that was covered over with bondo.

 

Brand new old stock inner fenders:

 

Cutting out the rusty and nasty floor and welding in new sheet metal panels:

 

One of the PO's decided to cut the frame. Why? I have no idea. Maybe to get the starter in without removing the Y pipe?

In any case, cut out the old, make a cardboard template, weld in the new:

 

I like the sounds of the build you got going on. The parts listed would make a great combo seen you got the crown Vic front I plan on using one for my 66 crew cab project I have how are you mounting your front sway bar and the rear frame mounts for the back legs of the sub frame? Also didn't see no rear end listed in the parts what are you doing for the rear end to get the same lug pattern as the front? I had to click on this thread because of the name I named my 71 crew project frankenford uses parts from all makes. I like the headliner I use the confederate flag in all my vehicles as the headliner.

 

I'm digging your build, dude, good luck with everything!

 

I hate the headliner. It was painted on to the OEM cardboard by one of the PO's.

I'm not sure what rear I'm going to use yet. I'm considering an 8.8 with a disk brake swap. I'll re-drill the axles for the 5 x 4 1/2 bolt pattern and plan on using Exploder rotors and calipers.

The front sway bar lined up perfectly with the frame rails. I just had to drill 5 holes for the sway bar mounts.

 

Made some more progress yesterday.

I finished welding in the driver's side floor pan and started on the passenger side pan. I also took a spot weld bit to the drip rails and started to remove them. I'm going for a totally smooth look.

Here are a couple more pics:

 

Hood side emblems are from a 1968/72. 1967's didn't have yellow reflectors.

Painted grill pictured in post 5 is from a 1968/69 Standard Cab.

1967/72 F100/350: TWO different radiator supports, one was only used with the Super Cooling Radiator...has a larger opening radius.

 

Also in the second picture, the picture showing the flag on the headliner, it looks like the passenger door has a door lock push/pull type. This wasn't on a 67. The doors could have been swapped. Who knows.
