56 Mercury M350

I was wondering if by chance anyone ever see this truck in person and if there is a build thread on it. All I can tell from the picture is it has a 428 Cobra Jet. I'd like to see the suspension and anything else on it..home made box..

Well with more searching the wife found out that this picture was photo-shopped. I just noticed the picture when searching for F 350's. I'm just trying to decide what I want to do with this one I have...

I'm not that good on a computer but it would be nice to be able to do. I guess you need the program on your computer though...lol
It looked better as the M350...lol

I'd like to see someone add some real tires to it. I bet it would look great without those ridiculous low profile tires
(Wow, I'm turning into a grumpy old man.....)

Nice truck
Bobby

I'm not a fan of the rubber band tires either, smaller rims with more sidewall is what I'd do..and not air bagged
