Extended Cab, saw an Original special Order F-1 w/ one, brother did it ever look ripping! 
And I'm not generally all that enthused about anything other than the 'Orphan Years Trucks, '57-'60".

That sounds cool wonder where I could find a picture?
Im thinking of using some older fenders front and rear something from the mid 30s to mid 40s with the teardrop shape more than square.
also a front tilt for the front clip and a convertible hard top on the already 6" chop.

Several months ago one of the Classic Truck Magazines had an article on a 51 F1. They sliced it down the center of the doors and extended it. You could tell buy looking at the picture something was changed. But till I read the article I didn't realize what. This is what I would like to do to my F1 someday. If you want to know which month it was in let me know and I will find it.

definitely....a four door would look real snazzy....or like a new style one i saw one time, had 6 full size doors, that was really interesting...it was at a campground in mobridge, sd....
or if you wanted to get real fancy, you could figure out a way to get one put together that had doors that went up like lamborghini doors....would definitely be different than everyone elses...haha

Wow 6 doors?? That definatly would be something to see.
Ty 51ford Ill see if I can find an issue.
Im starting to get some great Ideas. I think Im going to start with a simply replacement of fenders, Ill be looking for a full set (front and rear) from just about anything late 30's to early 40's (more rounded and flared) specifically like a 37 stude.
So if anyone comes across anything like that Please give Me a heads up.
