This truck is awesome! Not so easy to find in a 1/2 ton!

F100 Crews were never produced by Ford, they were done by Coachbuilders, Rich's , pictured above was a Crown conversion. (Note the exposed hinges on the rear doors, and the "bobbed" LWB box). The ones done by Stageway didn't have the exposed hinges.....

From the looks of that bed, it might just fit my 61 F100 on a 78 bronco chassis. My wheelbase is 104" and I am looking for a style side bed to modify to fit.

Yes, I was aware that the exterior hinges showing was a sign that it was a conversion, not made in house by Ford. But I didn't notice the bobbed bed but regardless , it is a cool truck Not easy to come by either conversion/outfitter company or Ford

Ha! Jeff, I have pics Rich sent me ages ago of the day you stopped by with your Crew for a visit, and I think Rich's dad was there at the time as well

I went looking for the pictures I took of that day, but didn't find them quickly. When was that? A date will help me locate the pictures. It was a good day of crewcabs!

Jeff: The email from Rich was sent to me on Thu., Mar. 5, 2015 at 12:53 p.m., in the email, Rich mentioned you had stopped by the previous weekend. Your truck has had a serious "Detailing" since those pics, and no more Canoe rack either??
But, I may have other pics as well, as I didn't see Rich's dad in the two pics attached to the above mentioned email. (or I'm getting progress pics of Rich's crew jumbled up with your visit(s)??)
I'll try and remember to look on my other computer later today, as it has a LOT more stuff (pics) stored on it than the desktop PC I'm currently on.
**PM me an email address & I can send you the pics if you like.

James
