Himmelberg,

I would like to take a photo of my 56 BBW f100 and send it to you. But I have to plow the 6 inches of snow we received here in the last 24 hours!

I will try to do this today

( This will be the first time in at least 20 years since my truck has been outside when there was snow on the ground!)

Kevin Bigwin

Send me your mailing address and the PF CD will go out in Mondays mail. Unfortunately you will find the trucks were packed like sardines at PF. Most would be unusable for this exercise, but I'll bet there are a few. Now the next problem will be how the heck do we know what IFS is under a truck with runningboards sitting on the ground?

Regarding ROTW trucks. Are you talkin' to me. I will email a few PICs as soon as I hang up here. Hopefully I already have something from the proper angle, because my new fenders are on and they aren't completely painted. I can't take any nrew PICs that look good. Partial primer would look pretty tacky as an example of a completed truck. But I'll do it if we have too.

Out here,

Hey himmel, I'm working on a custom pic. Its going to take maybe a day or to for me to do in photoshop. A bone stock 1956 F-100 big window, and a highly modified 1956 f-100 big window sitting on 17-18's facing eachother in that perfect position. If you can bear with me a day or two You should like the end result. -4speed

Although I'm not the only one with a vote around here, I think we are going to try to use forum owners truck PICs in the article. At least where they are available. Real live examples of the various options as built by regular guys.

I do love your photoshop work though. Make no mistake about that. You are very good at it and it makes the place fun.

Yeah, after I got about half-way through with it, I realized that I should keep looking for some "real" trucks. Oh well, maybe I'll come across that perfect pic. -4speed

If you're going to be around today or tonight, we may need a very minor tweak of a PIC. I'll drop you an email offline in a moment.

Kenny,

Plse unsticky this thread so it will sink to the bottom. The article has been submitted so we no longer need any additional photos.
Not sure what Ken - the webmaster wants his pics for though.....

Thanks,
