Ok after 4 times of trying to reply to everyone im just cutting this short. This is the begining Very begining. Pics will come soon what i am hoping for is you guys to start me off right with rust removal tips break down ideas with do's and dont's. I have bought a 48 coe a 49 f7 and a 51 Coe all off the frame and in pieces. My donor truck is a 91 f250 4wd. Im hoping to build the 4 door coe on the 91 chasis if i can make this work. I know nothing about blogs, threads or posts so please be patient

 

No worries, post at your own pace. When i first found this place, I had lots of trouble learning about this computer stuff.
You will catch on after a while. Everyone has to start somewhere.

We are curious about your build and willing to help. Post any questions here in this thread and we'll help if we can.

By the way pweng1, where are you located? Maybe someone close to you could lend a hand...

 

Sounds like you have all the parts required for your build! Now get busy and learn to post some pictures for us to see!

 

Eisiest way to post pictures is to spend 20 bucks and become a supporter then you can post right from your computer

 

Not to worry, we're a patient bunch and we'll help you out where we can.

I know messing around and posting pics can be real frustrating at times. It seems like this forum makes it a little harder than others but you'll get the hang of it eventually.

Sounds like you have plenty of pieces to make a 4 door, hopefully you'll be able to use the far superior and better looking 48-50 grill and are not stuck with the lagter manure spreader, buck toothed, behemoth (since you're new I'll fill you in.....we have a friendly bantering back and forth between the 48-50 "monkey face" trucks and the 51/52 "manure spreader" trucks, its all in good fun and can be quite entertaining)

We have a member here, 48fordcoe, that has doen several 4 door COE trucks. Here is a link to his profile;

I was just wondering what the 53 and 54 grilles would be called they dont have all those teeth but yes i am using the monkey face I attatched

 

The '53 through '56 trucks are just know as an "Effie." They are sooooo pretty that no one makes fun of them.

 

Im guessing its the coe in your avatar? I saw that a few times on craigslist and posted it here once. Ill be interested to see some better pictures of it!

Edit

Now that i actually read the thread, i see that its not.

 

Heres a 48 from a cool guy in Oregon.


Flathead Ford, t5 straight axle.
Heres mine

Scotts, Jays, Toms and Terrys are some the coolest f series coes out there.
